Marmite Seattle

"Marmite may be a relative newcomer to the Seattle area food scene, but owners Bruce and Sara Naftaly aren’t — they owned this city’s pioneering French restaurant, Le Gourmand, for 27 years before closing in 2012. Imagine the delight in 2016, then, that accompanied the opening of their new venture dedicated to a French cooking pot (not a British yeast extract). The impressive interior possesses a woodsy, almost outdoor aesthetic, which fits the couple’s dedication to Pacific Northwest ingredients. In particular, his various takes on mussels always come in a soul-stirring broth." - Leonardo David Raymundo

"Marmite, the seasonal French restaurant in Capitol Hill helmed by Seattle fine dining legend Bruce Naftaly, will run its last service on Monday, July 31. The restaurant announced via its Instagram on Wednesday, July 19, that Naftaly would be retiring from running restaurants." - Sophie Grossman

"The sole meuniere and the pork-chard caillettes in caul fat at Marmite (from chef Bruce Naftaly, perhaps better known for Le Gourmand back in the day) were a contender as well." - Adam H. Callaghan

"Miki Sodos says she’s working with French restaurant Marmite in making the open air dining plaza open daily since the first weekend was a success." - Gabe Guarente

"Chophouse Row’s French comfort food spot Marmite has pickup and delivery with a menu that includes nettle soup, fried rabbit legs, and beef au jus sandwiches." - Gabe Guarente
