Corbeau

Corbeau is a groundbreaking French restaurant that has quickly become the crown jewel of Tacoma's culinary scene. Located in the North End neighborhood at 3819 N 26th St, this Franco-Tacoman eatery opened in August 2024 with a bold vision: to celebrate food grown and harvested in the Pacific Northwest through the lens of French technique. Owner Trevor Hamilton, a native Tacoman and Certified Sommelier, previously earned Tacoma's first James Beard nomination during his tenure at The Table. Executive Chef Craig Tronset honed his skills at Bastille in Seattle before returning home to lead Corbeau's kitchen. In 2026, Corbeau became the first restaurant in Pierce County to receive the Slow Food Snail of Approval, a testament to their commitment to local sourcing from farms, ranches, and seafood purveyors. The menu changes frequently, driven by seasonal ingredients, while the cocktail program and wine list emphasize bio-regenerative producers. Beyond exceptional dining, Corbeau serves as a welcoming third space for the community, opening to organizations on Sundays. The restaurant's anti-fascist, community-oriented philosophy guides every decision, from pay equity for staff to the thoughtful service charge model. Perfect for special occasions, romantic dinners, or exploring the evolving wine program, Corbeau represents the best of what Tacoma's food scene has to offer.
