Fodor's Review:

Despite its great views of the sound and the Olympic Mountains, romantic Maximilien remains a well-kept secret. That's because it's tucked away in Pike Place Market behind Market Spice and a butcher shop, and it's not easy to find unless you know the way. Persevere; you'll be delighted. Under previous owner François Kissel, Maximilien was one of Julia Child's favorite Seattle restaurants. Nothing much has changed under the current owner (and former employee) Axel Macé: the bistro-style food is still very good, and the mood is still very French.
