Gainsbourg

In Seattle's Greenwood neighborhood, Gainsbourg balances family-style seating indoors with a sun-soaked, wrought-iron rimmed patio outside. The kitchen backs up the bar with French-influenced comfort dishes—from crisp seasoned fries and duck to a French dip served with French onion soup au jus—paired with drinks like the citrusy, bitter Devilish Tenant. The setting stays cozy, though the room can grow distinctly loud and service occasionally slows during peak hours.
