The 50 best takeout food in Seattle

We went for a late lunch on Sat. The restaurant was full but the wait was minimal. I had the shrimp and grits plus a side of catfish. The catfish was really good, crispy and light. I found the shrimp and grits a bit heavy and the gravy monotonous but hubby really liked it. He had the benedict (so so) with biscuit (nice and crunchy on the outside and pillowy buttery soft on the side). My sweet tea was really light and smooth. I would definitely go back for the catfish and biscuits and try more stuff on the menu. Great southern diner ambience. The service was a bit spotty because only one guy was really hustling. The ladies were chatting VERY loudly to each other most of the time so we had to flag them down to order and get served. They were a bit hot and cold.

I had this place on my list for over a month before visiting Seattle. Did NOT disappoint!! The owner and staff are absolutely incredible. The food…. My goodness, truly something special going on in that kitchen!! The breakfast sandwich was absolutely mouth watering. Wife and I would have to say the honey butter smothered brisket with the crispy chicken was the best we’ve ever had! The drinks bloody mary and mimosas definitely hit the spot. And when the first thing to hit the table was these beignets, you know it’s about to be an experience!

Congratulations on their 10 year anniversary! We were recommended this local Black owned restaurant and they did not disappoint. It was my partners first time trying chicken and waffles and the flavours were so good we’re still thinking about it. Take advantage of their happy hour deals on the food and 2 for $5 beers! The staff were so friendly, we would come back just to talk to them. Hopefully we’re back soon :)

Some of the best brunch I’ve ever had. Everything was amazing in a casual setting. Tasted fresh and authentic, cool place with great costumer service. Make sure you try one of their cocktails too, they’re definitely not shy with the liquor. Next time I’m in Seattle, definitely will be my first stop. Highly recommend, but come with a big appetite.

This place should be on everyone’s food map in Seattle (if you have one)! We came in around 5:20 pm, so we were able to be seated pretty quickly (group of 4), which was a relief considering we expected to wait a while to get a table. While we waited for our food, we saw the place fill up pretty quickly, so we were excited about the stuff we ordered. As the people who came before us started getting served and we could see the portions and looks of the items, our excitement was through the roof. We ended up ordering the Fat’s Sampler, Seafood Sampler, and Chicken and Waffles. This has to be some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! Perfectly crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. Their Honey Buttered Biscuit is totally worth the hype too, has to be one of the best Biscuits I’ve ever had. Overall, the food experience lived up to our expectations and we will definitely be back for some more! Service can get slow when the place gets super busy, but that’s okay because we found the wait to be totally worth it. The staff here tries to create a homely, welcoming, and warm atmosphere, which is something that missing in many other “popular” food places around the city. Seeing the staff interact with our tables and others definitely brought smiles to our faces :) Overall, I’d give this place an 11/10 and highly recommend it, even if there’s a bit of a wait involved!

We went here with friends, not expecting they would have much for us as vegetarians, but they were super amenable. Not only did they have good options on the normal menu, but our friend recommended the BLT so we got that and they substituted the bacon with fried green tomato. The sandwich felt fresh and flavorful and worked well with the hot suaces they had. It took a bit to come out but that is because they make everything there so it takes time. Worth the wait. They are also super friendly as well. I think they could single handedly break the seattle freeze if given the chance. Overall a great spot for a southern bite which is not something you would find in seattle elsewhere

I had a very pleasant experience. The food was AMAZING!! Cooked to order - hot and fresh - full of flavor and nice portions. The place was very welcoming with nice Afrobeats, Amapiano, and R&B style music playing. It was very clean and smelled nice. The owners, Erika and Erika were incredible. The two joked with me about how I was in my own world just eating & dancing while awaiting my food, I told them how I just moved to the area from California and Erika told me about some great events to meet new people and have fun. She even went as far as sharing Instagram pages for local DJs and event promoters so I’d know good spots to hand out. Overall I had a 10/10 experience, I’ll definitely be back!

We had an incredible evening here. The service is top notch. Our waiter, Mack, knew everything about every item on the menu, and described them perfectly. We never felt rushed, even though we asked a lot of questions. The support staff was very stealthy at times, when I would realize I had new silverware but never saw them bring it. The entire staff are friendly and outgoing, and they all looked happy. The food was superb, and every dish was as beautiful as it was delicious. While the portions look small, all four of us were stuffed when we left, and we didn't have the salad. The sommelier was excellent, bringing us several different samples to try before we made a decision. The view is also top notch. It is absolutely a huge splurge and not something we would do often, but it's a great experience for a special occasion.

Walking into Canlis to the sound of a live pianist is a special moment that is all too rare these days. I was lucky enough to dine in the private room as part of a work event. It has floor to ceiling windows offering an incredible view over Lake Union and Gas Works Park. We started with the Endive Salad and I chose the Beef Short Rib. Both were beautifully prepared, balanced and flavoursome. The crème brûlée was equally delicious. The real standout to me was the impeccable service. Our room had a host who was exceptional - warm, friendly and attentive - supported by plenty of staff who kept drinks topped up and ensured everything was perfect. I can’t wait to return with family - this place is truly special.

Canlis is an absolutely beautiful restaurant for a special occasion with your partner or family and a beautiful view of the city! The service is good and everything you would expect in a fine dining experience. The food is also quite good! I left off a couple of stars only for a few reasons: - the sides (potatoes) were a confusing plate that were overly rich and heavy and didn't make sense in combination with the meal - the knife served with the duck was too dull to cut into the meat - my partner and I were asked if this was a special occasion when we made the reservation and noted that this was our 5 year wedding anniversary but nothing for this occasion was really celebrated during our meal--something I find odd at an establishment at this caliber and that I considered a miss - the pumpkin spice dessert was almost delicious! It would have been perfect if it had just been edited a bit more. The chocolate mousse didn't balance the dish or really fit and was too bitter for the plate...it was a shame because without it the dish was delicious! - the restaurant was slammed the night we went (a server mentioned that they had 40 more covers than usual that night) so I completely understand this--but the pacing between courses was very off. Definitely much longer than they should have been. Again I'm not upset and the servers were very kind and upfront about this but worth noting. Outside of these things this place was great and the blueberry halo halo was so perfectly balanced it was the absolute star of the show to me! I think with some tweaks this place should be Michelin star level--just not quite yet and Michelin isn't in Seattle yet lol so they have time to get there! I would still recommend to others because I think maybe it was just an off night because of how busy it was and that it could be much better!

tldr; uninspired tasting menu, disinterested vibe from staff I've been coming to canlis for the last 15 years, I usually try to visit at least once a year or catch any new updates, such as a new chef. I was interested to try the updated menu. Overall, the visit was average and each visit has noticeably trended down in quality over the years; and this without taking into account the steep price. View is still great, wonderful location, I guess that and the table side salad are the best things going for it now. One observation persistent throughout all the staff (with the notable exception of the table busser), I felt a really cold, sterile, uninterested posture in communication and conversation. * conversation with the sommelier to pick out a bottle for the evening, came off very cold and uninterested as noted above. made basic comments about price points but otherwise not interested to tailor any kind of a selection to my interests. I ended up just picking a selection on my own. presentation and opening of the bottle, more of the same. I would expect at least a little bit of conversation and highlights of a $500 bottle but fair enough * as far as the wine selection, I feel like there is a noticeable gap in options from the 200 - 600 range. it would be great to get a vintage closer to 15 - 20 years without having to go up to a $2,000 or $3,000 bottle or have to go with a magnum * for entrees, I had the pork belly, steak and blueberry? dessert.. it was fine, steak had kind of a weird texture, sides (carrots and potatoes) were similarly average, kind of checking the checkbox. best item was still the original table side salad

From the moment you walk in this is what you expect for a super fancy tasting experience. The staff is extremely attentive and we almost never waited for service. The seating was a bit odd at times. Some tables were normal circles while others were similar to a half booth where typically you'd have 2 bench seats and 2 normal chairs but in this case it was just the bench seats. They also pulled the table out so you can sit down and then pushed it in. The staff were extremely cognizant of this to the point where if you try to stand up one will appear almost from nowhere to move the table for you. The food started out with a potato chip and a butter with salt and pepper. The chips were quite good and the flavor here was deep. I was quite excited for what was to come next. Our first course was fried mushroom with small dollops of sauce as well as a small crab cake bite. The mushroom was good but truly did not taste more magical than any other fried mushroom but was lighter. The crab cake was good but fleeting as I have never had as small as crab cake morsel. It was also low in breading and was atop a cut vegetable of some kind. Perhaps a reddish. The next course was was a foccaia bread with a few sauces. The bread was exquisite and was honestly the high point of the night for me. The sauces were mixed. One was a salted butter and was good but not special. The next was a honey butter miso which was special but not good. It had a very deep ummami flavor but was not balanced at all and basically tasted like oily miso. The last was a green sauce that was to die for. I'd buy that in bulk to put on near anything. Very hearty and had a fried kale piece inside which was also great. The next course course for myself was their take on duck. It was a small piece of duck breast with a glaze. It was good but not very inspiring or complex. I've had much better prepared duck at much smaller restraints and often in chinese grocery stores. So like it was fine but not for the price. My wife had their squash dish which was quite good. The flavor was more complex and fit together much better. I'd choose that over the duck if I had another chance. The next course was the Ribeye Kalbi. I was hoping for an immaculately seasoned cut or perhaps an insanely marbled piece of steak but what they served was an unbelievably rare sliver that tasted...adequate and cute alright. Not nearly something id expect at such a high price and likely lesser in flavor than something you could get at an outback for reference. My wife had the Sablefish which was unbelievably fishy and was also served with a cold beans. It was visually interesting with foam and such but flavor and smell was awful to me and honestly assaulted my senses during that whole course. Finally we reached the dessert which we both chose their Pumpkin latte. The pumpkin ice cream was delicious but not better than Talenti that you could buy at the grocery store. The chocolate was good and dark flavored. The foam was weird and Perhaps too salty. Overall the atmosphere here and the presence was insane. The food did not live up to the hype in any shape. I would likely never return here myself as with our two meals, one mocktail, one cocktail and one of their glasses of Syrah we spent like $560. For this much money we could have gone to a number of restaurants that would have been way better, bigger portions and better price. Personally this was not worth the price of admission and is something that looks more interesting than it was.

An unforgettable dining experience! Canlis combines world-class cuisine with a breathtaking view over Lake Union and the city skyline. Every course was beautifully prepared and full of creative flavors, and the service was impeccable — warm, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. Perfect for celebrating something special or just treating yourself to an extraordinary evening in Seattle:)

It was ok. Wouldn’t come back for an $800 meal. It was our 8 year wedding anniversary and it was swept under the rug, no one really cared. Dont expect anything for your anniversary. The couple next to us got a free bottle of champagne though for the ladies birthday. For anniversary really they don’t do anything. Food was good, can’t say it was bad. But we paid $800 so I’m not sure if it was worth it for us. We prefer to spend that on good omakase :) more enjoyable. What was really stunning is the glasses they served drinks in. Such stunning glass, I took pictures of the company so I can purchase later! That was the highlight of my night. Server was ok. Nothing special, just ok and average. We are used to better service. The two valet guys were outside laughing and chatting didn’t care for us. We went outside to wait for uber but I needed to use the restroom. The guys were right there doing nothing. They never open doors or ask how they can help. My husband was opening the door back and forth for me. Usually, at places like this valet takes care of you. It did not feel like a fancy Michelin restaurant but a college dorm of dudes laughing around being stupid. Maybe they don’t get paid? I honestly don’t know what they do but I would be embarrassed as the manager of this place. Please hire valet that has standards and maybe does bare minimum job. I’m standing right by the door … maybe open the door for me? Instead of standing right next to me and ignoring my presence… Overall, it was ok, food was good but nothing worth $$$. I was prepared to be blown away by the service atmosphere and food but it was just average. Food was more than average but the valet really ruined the vibe of the restaurant for us. We will not be coming back, you won’t feel special celebrating anything here.

e service here was terrific from the moment we sat down, we felt truly taken care of. The pasta tasted incredibly fresh and high quality. We ordered the risotto and the fresh butter pasta, both outstanding. The cucumber salad was a pleasant surprise paired with hazelnut and cheese, it turned something so simple into something unique and memorable. We also appreciated the welcome bread and complimentary snack to start the meal. I had heard this was the best pasta in Seattle, and I can definitely confirm that it lives up to the reputation.

Insanely delicious pastas, anything on Primi is a must try. I took my partner here, he thought meh at first but became a fan after second time. We keep coming back for their egg yolk pasta, but this time found they have some really good desserts too. The melon granita and corn panna cotta are SO GOOD I hope they keep it on the menu or rotate them back sooner!

This place kind of a rustic feel feel to it but serves high quality food. They fave us a complimentary cracker with butter than anchovy on it. It was delicious and I wish I could order more. This restaurant is famous for their northern Italian thin pasta made with plenty of egg yolks. I got their signature one with butter and sage - fantastic. You can taste the egginess from the simplicity of the sauce. Next was the same pasta but with pork and beef ragu. The ragu itself was good but unfortunately, it just covered the delicacy of the pasta taste and this ragu could have just been on any pasta and would taste good. It is just wasted on the tajarin. The third one I tried was the cavatelli with braised short ribs. I'm not sure if the cavatelli was also made with the same dough as the tajarain but again the meat sauce covered all the intrinsic flavor of the pasta. The braised short ribs is definitely good but I could have had this on rice and it would be just as good. I would come to try their original butter sage tarajin. They gave complimentary bread. I guess in Italy butter does not come with bread but it felt dry just eating it so we asked for some and they were happy to provide some. My only gripe is that it is $33 for a dish that is not filling. My friend and I shared 3 pastas and it still wasn't filling. That means about $60+ a person for dinner at a not to high end restaurant.

We came by around 5 PM on a Wednesday with no reservation and were seated after about a 20-minute wait, which wasn’t bad at all! The service here is amazing—super attentive and friendly the whole time. We started with the four-appetizer tray. The prosciutto with melon and the salad were our favorites and definitely worth ordering. The hummus with corn and cucumber with goat cheese were just okay. One thing we really loved is that you can get half portions of pasta, which is perfect for trying different dishes. The ragu and butter & sage pasta were the standouts—so flavorful with incredible texture. The fine hand-cut pasta with pork and beef was the only one we’d probably skip next time. For drinks, the lavender gin cocktail was a hit, while the hibiscus vermouth was just alright. We ended with the baba al rhum. The mousse and nectarine were really good, but the rum flavor was a little strong for us. Overall, fantastic experience with amazing service and some seriously delicious pasta. Highly recommend checking this place out, especially if you’re a pasta lover!

We had an AMAZING dinner here! Our waitress was amazing and she recommended a beautiful bottle of wine. She has a great personality that made our experience that much better. The food was delicious. We got the ZUPPA INGLESE CON MELE for dessert and it was so good. It was essentially a cross between tiramisu and apple strudel.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5) Pasta magic that’s worth every waitlist — just bring a little more warmth to the welcome. After seeing Spinasse trending on Google Maps, I tried to go three different times—and each time they were fully booked! On OpenTable, you’ll often only find 9:30 PM slots for the week ahead, so if you want this pasta, plan early. When I finally got in (by lucky accident), I understood the buzz. The dining room is cozy and elegant, with white tablecloths, soft lighting, and the kind of quiet energy that says, “this is serious pasta.” I was relieved to find there’s extra seating around the corner, which gives the space a bit more breathing room while keeping the charm intact. We skipped appetizers, but the kitchen surprised us with a crostini topped with creamy brie and shaved radish—simple, refined, and delicious. I ordered the housemade pasta with rib ragù, and let’s just say… this is what handmade should taste like. The noodles were silky and light, the sauce slow-cooked perfection, and the meat tender enough to melt your worries away. The beet and chicory salad was crisp and refreshing—balanced and earthy in all the right ways. Portions are elegant, not oversized, which I loved; it’s the kind of meal that satisfies your senses, not just your appetite. Service could use a bit more sparkle. Our waiter was kind but lacked enthusiasm, and the hostess’ cool demeanor set a slightly detached tone. A little more excitement in storytelling—about the chef, the process, the passion—would elevate the whole experience to match the excellence of the food. Still, Spinasse is a must for pasta lovers. With a bit more warmth in the service, it could easily hit that fifth star. 💡 Pro tip: Reserve early, skip the rush, and savor slow-made pasta that feels like a love letter to Italy. #SeattleEats #Spinasse #CapitolHillSeattle #ItalianFoodSeattle #PastaLovers #SeattleDateNight #SeattleRestaurants

Spinasse was a delightful venue for dinner with friends and one of my favorites in the city so far. The space inside is small and intimate with great service and vibes. The menu isn't massive, but what is available was interesting and all delicious. I especially enjoyed the sampler of appetizers - really nice option for sure. I also appreciated the drink options - the wine we ordered was delicious and the bourbon available was shockingly well priced. Finally, the desserts were frankly outstanding. I want more of the chocolate torta. A+ all around - we will be back.

The four of us shared 4 share plates, two entrees, and a bottle of wine. All of the share plates were GREAT. I highly recommend the chicken dish for entree. It was juicy and a good balance of flavors. One caveat— the chicken dish was undercooked, which the server managed the situation well. I don’t recommend the NY steak. It’s a little dry. Overall, great atmosphere, food, and service!

Went here to celebrate our anniversary. There was a slight snafu with the reservation, however the staff was warm and accommodating with zero wait time. The food was amazing the service was excellent. Ordered the “spoil me” and wow. Lots of food and the flavors were delish!! Would come here again.

Great experience! As someone from Turkey, I was really craving some Mediterranean flavors—and this place delivered! You should definitely try their muhammara, it was so tasty. The service was also friendly and attentive. I’ll be coming back for sure!

Our group of two vegans and one vegetarian had a fabulous dinner here! We chose to have a number of small plates to share rather than ordering entrees. There was so much delicious food - so many vegan options, my mouth waters just thinking of them. And it was so much fun as well! Highly recommended.

Likely one of my favourite restaurants in Seattle and I don’t even fully understand what middle eastern food really consists of. But the food here is absolutely amazing and the service cannot be beat either. We received a complimentary dish because their kitchen was very busy and took a while to have our appetizers done, I found that to be very thoughtful. All the food was the best combination of flavours and I was honestly so impressed by how good everything tasted. My favourite is their scallop dish, absolutely mind blowing. I will definitely come back to this place.

I didn't expect the level of flavor I discovered at Mamnoon. I stopped in for some shawarma--that was my idea at least, and ended up ordering the tasting menu for $65/seat for me and my dad. Couldn't have picked a better item. It was new, flavorful, inventive, and the portions were great. I wish I photographed everything that came our way, but I was just enamored as the plates kept coming with wonderful creations. The portions were exactly perfect to satisfy two hungry diners. Our service was attentive, waitstaff knowledgeable, not pushy, very kind, and knew what plates to take and when and which libations to recommend. I wish the atmosphere had the same energy as the food. The food is not collar-and-tie (not a dig), but its respectful and serious. The interior design sort of dazed me, the lighting was strange, and the music was slightly unsavory. The atmosphere said 'dance club', and the food was reciting poetry, so to speak.

Comprehensive and proper menu offerings of Middle Eastern plates. The variations of hummus are simply delicious and so do other mezzes — baba ganoush, crispy cauliflower, and fatayer. The Lebanese red wine we had for the table turned out to be a wonderful one, too.

I've been hearing the hype for so long and so I finally gave it a try. There is much to like: big burgers with toppings piled high on top of a freshly made meat patty. I particularly liked the soda fountain that featured the local Seattle Soda company. Overall I liked the burger, and its better than most others. I did find the meat dry, and I love toasted buns but I found that mine seemed stale inside. Perhaps the next time it'll be different

This was my first time trying out Uneeda Burger. I went up to the front to place my order then there was plenty of open seating inside of the restaurant and some outdoor patio seating as well. I really liked the vibe of this place. I got to try out the classic burger, the mushroom burger, and the french fries. The food came out fairly quickly considering that there was a lot of orders before mine. The classic burger was nice and simple. Nothing spectacular but not bad at all. A decent burger for a good price. The mushroom burger on the other hand was really good. The mushrooms had a nice flavor, the beef patty was thick, and this burger had a much better bun to top it all off. The fries unfortunately were very stale and not good at all. Overall, a decent burger spot for a good price. I think there is good value for what you pay for here.

This is my favorite burger place in Seattle. For full size tasty burgers you can’t beat Uneeda Burger. These are not smash burgers but full size burgers. The bacon is super flavorful and add cheese and you got a winner. I usually get the fries, which are amazing, but this time I tried the onion rings and they didn’t disappoint. They also have cheese curds as a side they looked interesting I may try them next time, I’ll keep you posted. If you’re in the north end it’s worth a stop at Uneeda a burger for lunch or dinner.

I actually hit this place up for a chocolate milkshake and they didn’t disappoint. It was a classic shake and the restaurant itself had a really cool vibe. The service was exceptional. Super friendly and really fast preparing the shake. Great experience all around. Will he back

Best best gluten free hamburger we’ve ever had! Gluten free onion rings!!!!! The service was super friendly and welcoming’ indoor outdoor seating our new favorite place!! Not super expensive YUM!!!

We were traveling from Oklahoma and wanted a good burger. We found this place online and thought we'd give them a try. Loved the name of the place and reviews sounded good. The burgers we had was like a backyard grilled burger. It was good and I believe the fries were fresh cut fries. I'd definitely eat there again if I was to come back to Seattle... But you couldn't pay me to come back to this hell hole of a city.

I have been coming to this place since 2011 and it has always been one of my favorite spots. Yesterday I happened to be in the neighborhood and decided to stop by again. From the moment my girlfriend and I walked in, the service was warm and welcoming. The staff made us feel taken care of right away. When our burgers came out, they were absolutely delicious — just as good, if not better, than I remembered. It is rare to find a place that can keep its consistency over so many years, but this spot has clearly not lost its touch. The food was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. What impressed me most is that the atmosphere and character of this establishment are still intact after all these years. It has not lost its soul, and that is something special. I am really glad I stopped in and will definitely be back again.

Food came out really fast and server was very nice! If you’re students in Seattle and come during weekday with your student card, you get 10% off as “community discount”! They also have happy hours from 2-5pm. We really loved the vibe/interior of the store and all our pictures came out pretty! The fried rice we ordered was Malaysia’s national dish and it was a bit salty to us. Coconut drink was very sweet to us because of the vanilla ice cream on top of the drink, but really like the coconut liquid part!

We tried Kedai Mekan over the weekend, and it was a great experience overall! I ordered the Spicy Margarita, which was really good. We also tried the Rotti with chickpea sauce, the sauce was delicious, but I was expecting a crispy rotti like the ones served at Thai or Indian restaurants, so it wasn’t quite what I expected. For the main dish, we had the Nasi Lemak, which was really good and definitely a highlight of the meal! I was also expecting them to serve draft beer, but unfortunately, they didn’t.

A wonderful dining experience! We had to wait a short while for our table despite having a reservation, but it wasn't a long delay. The food was the highlight, every dish we tried, from the Roti Jala to the Chili Pan Mee, was excellent. The service was also quick and attentive. Overall, a great meal, and we're already looking forward to our next visit."

I can’t choose my fav. Every dish was amazing. All packed with flavor and made to perfection ( except some dried shrimp in Laksa). The spicy condiments is really good too. Chili Pan Mee is smth new. I have never had anything like it, if you like spicy noodles, you will like it. Service is great too. The servers are very knowledgeable and talked my husband out of trying some crazy drinks lol. Nice chill date night spot on a Friday night.

A little pricey but the food was fantastic! We both loved our dishes. Highly recommend the national dish with chicken curry. Each element complimented the next perfectly in both flavor and texture. Obsessed with those tea eggs! Service is so so. I hate the mandatory 18% tip. I fully support livable wages and I'm happy to pay more to make that happen! However, I think that price should be reflected in the menu price and not added on as a percentage afterwards. What's on the menu should be what you pay. If the tip is mandatory then the dish isn't $21, it's $24.78 before tax. Also, livable wages don't change based on sales and should be consistent.

Man… I wanted to like this. I used to manage the building Kedai was in when Kevin and Alysson owned it and I frequented OFTEN. It was hard not to as I was working in my little closet and the delicious, pungent aromas that were unmistakably their food wafted upstairs. I also went often to their little walk up stall, which Yalla now calls home. So when I say I’ve eaten my weight in Nazi Goreng, I HAVE EATEN MY WEIGHT IN NASI GORENG! I was both bummed and excited they were closing bcs I know how hard they worked and how tiring running a smashing hit of a restaurant can be. I moved towards the mountains during COVID and come back occasionally and today, I was so excited bcs I had extra time to stop and give the place a try, in its new location, under the new ownership. *le sigh* When I walked in and wasn’t punched in the face w the same scent that came out of Kevin’s kitchen, I should’ve known. The Nasi Goreng is not the Malaysian style Nasi I came to love deeply. At best, it’s a Chinese style fried rice, an ok and EXPENSIVE one but if I wanted Chinese fried rice, I’d go to a Chinese restaurant. The sambal they serve it with is a Thai style sweet sambal, not the throat punching Malaysian sambal Id mix into the already exceptionally flavorful Nasi Goreng ala Kevin. I love that for my Crab Rangoon I get at a Thai place but not at Kedai. They say there are anchovies in it but they taste more like minows, which is whatever. I’m pretty bummed. I did get my wife the roti and I haven’t tried it yet but I wont get my hopes up when she comes home and I get to try a bite. So the place is… fine. It used to be exceptional and deserved people lining up 30-45min prior to opening. It’s not that anymore. If you haven’t been since the new ownership resurrected it, know they resurrected it in name, with the benefit of having years of stellar reviews when Kevin and Alysson ran it, but it is NOT that anymore. The Paseo resurrection was better executed than this, tho I still prefer Un Bien but… that’s for a diff review.

Absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I are fans of Malaysian food but this place is something else! The roti was so good that we were fighting over the last scraps. Possibly the juiciest fried chicken we have EVER had. The nasi lamak was on point but the crunchy anchovies that came with it gave us LIFE! 🤤

This is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. Photos don’t do it justice — the flavors are out of this world sweet/spicy/sour/savory. You can’t go wrong but we loved the Papaya salad, Tom Kha, Pad Thai, and Green Curry. Get a “2” or “3” spicy (out of 5) unless you really like it hot.

We went back for lunch the next day, and it was just as mind-blowingly good.. I ordered Kao Kaprao Moo Krob and Ga Fae Yen (Thai iced coffee). This place serves the best Thai food I’ve had outside Thailand — bold, balanced, and ridiculously delicious. Absolutely a 150% must-dine spot.

My 2 friends were visiting Seattle for the first time and wanted to stop at this location for dinner! The service was quick at first and they seated us quickly! We ordered 3 dishes and shared: papaya salad, pork basil dish, and a curry! Rice came with the curry which was great! The papaya salad was phenomenal! After they served us, it took awhile to get the check. Overall, the experience was good! Music was a little loud at 9pm, but we really enjoyed the ascetic of the place!

My friends took me here Friday 🤩 night the food was amazing 🩷 after girls night from the concert this was needed! The service was slow even tho it wasn’t too packed @11pm but it did get really loud in music after it hit 12am lol . Spacious area better to sit in the back the music is kid loud and you can hear each other talk

The restaurant has a very interesting model of both bar and dining. The dish is quite delicious but the flavor is more sour and spicy so those who are sensitive to these two flavors should consider it. There is absolutely no vegetarian food here either. And of course most of it was Thai food. The table is quite small so if you intend to order many dishes at once, you should consider it. The service staff is also quite fast and friendly. But one thing about Seattle is that it is very difficult to find parking, parking lots and garages are very far from restaurants, you have to walk a long way. There are also very few parking spots on the street and the parking fee is very high. And if you are unlucky, just a few minutes late, your car will be towed away or it seems like someone is always watching your car. That is terrible. This is definitely not suitable for children. The aisles are very narrow so it would be difficult for wheelchair users. You should book a table in advance because you may have to wait a long time if you don't book a table. But this is still a destination to visit and recommend to friends if you have the opportunity to visit Seattle.

Had to wait for about 15 minutes even on Sunday night. We got Red and Green curries with tofu, which were nice except that the tofu was clearly not freshly fried. Corn fritters were great and came with a nice dip. Mango sticky rice could have had some more coconut milk.

Sometimes, a “white elephant” isn’t hidden deep in the jungle — it can be found right in the heart of the city. Just like this Thai restaurant located in downtown Seattle, Washington — Bangrak Market, or as it’s known in Thai, “Talad Bangrak.” It’s not just the name that reflects true Thai identity. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is filled with the nostalgic charm of Thailand, reminding us of relaxing days dining near a floating market. What impressed us the most was the flavor — bold, authentic, and full of depth — along with the beautifully presented dishes that truly touched the heart. As a Thai person, it was so emotional, it almost brought tears to my eyes… all those feelings of missing home came rushing back. Another highlight was the warm, friendly service from the staff that made me feel like I was having a comforting meal at a family’s house back in Thailand. I’ve traveled to many places and tried countless Thai restaurants abroad, but this one is a rare gem. It’s one of those few places where, the moment you walk in, it feels like you’ve stepped through a portal straight back to Thailand. Thank you so much for such a wonderful and heartfelt meal. We will definitely come back here!🇹🇭❤️

We stopped here for quick bites and ordered guacamole and tamales. The chips came with the guacamole were very hard and difficult to chew. The tamales tasted well but less taste. It would be nice if they could give some hot sources on the side. The service here is very good, all the servers were very nice and friendly. They also have a very smart order system. So if you put the card standup, it meant you wanted to order, and the server would come to you to take the order. In this case, we don't need to look out to find where our server is, which is very nice.

The restaurant is super spacious and well lit from all of the windows. There's nice music playing in the background and tons of seating. The staff is pretty quick to get your food in. The rice and beans are delicious. I ordered the Sweet potato mole. Their masa ratios are perfect. The tamal wasn't dry or lacking filling. My only critique was of the filling. I couldn't taste the Mole at all because the sweet potato flavor was so strong. I think a regular potato could be delicious and really let the mole shine. Definitely a nice spot to eat and hangout!

If you’re a true tamale lover like me, you need to put Freland Tamales on your must-visit list. I stopped by today, July 31st. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed. The interior design is warm, cozy, and inviting — a perfect blend of traditional charm and modern cleanliness. You can tell they care about every detail, from the spotless dining area to the way the staff greets you with genuine smiles and excellent service. Every single person I interacted with was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. Now, the food — where do I even start? I tried their rotating tamales, and every bite was packed with flavor. The mole chicken tamale with red sauce was a standout — rich, savory, and perfectly seasoned. The rice and beans on the side were cooked to perfection, with just the right texture and seasoning to complement the tamales without overpowering them. What I loved most is that their tamales taste homemade, like something passed down through generations — comforting, hearty, and deeply satisfying. You can tell they put a lot of love and care into their recipes. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. You leave full, happy, and without breaking the bank — always a huge plus these days. Overall, Freland Tamales exceeded my expectations. Whether you’re already obsessed with tamales or just looking for a cozy, delicious, and authentic spot to grab a bite, this place should be on your radar. I’ll definitely be coming back — probably sooner than later!

For I stopped in for lunch with a friend on my most recent visit, service was quick, it was getting close to 1:00 on a weekday and they were nearly empty. Service was super fast and friendly, they have a good system using the menu position to let the server know if you need something. Something. Food came out quick and hot, the chips were thick and crunchy, and held up to the thick guac well. Tamales were pretty good.

Solid tamales! The meat was moist and flavorful, and the stiffer masa keeps the structure. Salsa is highlights the tomatillo tang but doesn’t add spice (even the hot one is mild). Hopefully they bring on the option of real spice later. The beers are solid too! I enjoyed the red ale and the cream ale. Above all the servers were great - especially Juan. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Yes, I know we’re on a taco tour, but this is my detour indulgence. Frelard isn’t just about tacos – it’s home to Seattle’s beloved walk-up tamale window that locals line up for, rain or shine. Inside you’ll find a cavernous dining room with more tables than you’d expect, plus a couple of outdoor patio spots for that true PNW sun-chasing vibe. I went straight for their handmade tamales – the earthy richness of a Sweet Potato Mole alongside a decadent Pork Belly wrapped in Mango Salsa. To keep it balanced, I washed it down with a Watermelon Agua Fresca, their house horchata, and even a refreshing mocktail. Comfort food, reimagined, and unapologetically Seattle.

My partner and I have been frequenting this spot since it was a little hole in the wall (literally) pick up window. Seeing them expand into a full fledged restaurant with new menu offerings and events has been such a joy. Through all the changes, Frelard Tamales has maintained the homemade feel and quality of their food while keeping prices reasonable (by Seattle standards at least). We come here at least once monthly and always leave satisfied with the food, friendly service, and fun atmosphere. Additionally, Frelard Tamales is very allergy friendly and takes my dairy allergy seriously. I’ve never gotten sick eating here, and my order comes out right every time. Frelard Tamales is truly a gem- we are customers for life!

The tavern style pizza here was excellent! And that's from a life long Midwesterner and tavern pizza connoisseur. The drinks were also quite good. The service was incredible. They really went above and beyond to help us out while we went to the zoo nearby. The deep dish looked fantastic (just not my thing, but if you're into it at all, I would definitely try!)

Finally made it to Windy City Pie for Sweet Pete pizza and I’m honestly kicking myself for not coming sooner. Been eyeing this place forever and now that we’ve been… yeah, it lives up to the hype. We ordered the Chicago-style deep dish (yep, the one everyone talks about), fully knowing both the raves and the complaints. Let’s start with the good stuff— The flavor? Unreal. People weren’t lying. Every bite was rich, savory, and totally worth the food coma. The service? Warm, welcoming, no eye-rolls, no fuss. Just good vibes. Also, gratuity is already baked into the price, so no awkward tipping games for mediocre service—it’s all handled, and they earn it. Now for the "negative" people keep mentioning—besides parking: Yeah, the bread is thick. Like, thicc-thick. If you're expecting that cheesy, gooey, meat avalanche type of deep dish, this one leans more toward a hearty bread base with the toppings riding on top. We knew that going in, so no complaints from us. If you want less bread and more melt, they’ve got the Breezy-style pizza (limited time thing), but we were cool with the classic. All in all, it’s a 4.5-star for me if I'm being strict. Flavor's amazing, service is top-tier, and yeah, thick bread’s a whole situation—but it’s their thing and they do it well. We can't wait to try more from them!!!

Amazing pizza! This is one of my favorite pizza places in Seattle. They do Chicago style deep dish, Detroit thin crust and even one on sourdough. I also appreciated their pizza boxes to go with instructions on how to reheat. We got the Fennel Destination, Tuscany Raider and a thin crust with bacon.

If you want a delicious, authentic, Chicago style deep dish pizza, look no further. Having lived in the Midwest for many years myself, I can say that Windy City Pie is 1000% true to what makes a delicious deep dish pizza. The crust is buttery, crispy, but also fluffy and chewable. It has that perfect pizza satisfying snap, that melts into a delicious buttery flavor. The sauce is a fantastic balance of acidic and tomato-y, with sweet and flavorful. The cheese is gooey and delicious, without being overbearing or overwhelming. (Personal pet peeve of mine is pizza places that just drown the pizza in cheese, to make up for bad crust or sauce). We got the limited edition Whipped Ricotta pie, and the lemony zesty savory whipped ricotta was to die for. My only schtick would be the wait time, but good things comes to those who are patient. Even with empty tables, still took about 15-20 minutes for the pie to come out. Could not even imagine a packed Friday night. Their website says to order ahead, which is a brilliant and creative idea. Our server was extremely friendly, and an absolute gem. Restaurant is very quaint, with old school wood Italian vibes. Parking is rough, but it's Seattle. Park far and walk, or park further and uber. 10/10 would go again.

My favorite pizza place. Their pies are delicious! The crust is sooo yummy. I always order takeout for my birthday dinner even though it’s an hour drive to get there. My three year old loved the Toddler slice and I usually get whatever the seasonal special is. Today, it had whipped lemon ricotta. The lemon, basil, and tomato sauce were extra tasty all together. Forgot to snap a pic before digging in - the smell on the drive home was torture enough! Long live Windy City Pie!

Great deep dish pizza. Restaurant is tip free which is awesome. Full bar. They had great Halloween decor up and were playing the mummy (Brendan Fraser!) on their screen.

This place has become a bi-monthly craving for myself and my girlfriend. We occasionally get the deep dish (which is awesome) but I think the real hidden gem star of the show is the tavern style thin crust. They literally do it perfectly and cut in squares too! We regularly fight over leftovers. The space is welcoming and the staff is friendly and I love love LOVE that they are a no-tipping establishment. Keep it up. See you again soon!

TLDR; go for the dessert, drinks and appetizers (in that order) We came in for a late lunch on a weekday and were very surprised to see how busy they were. Food: between the two of us, we ordered 2 appetizers (mushroom crostini, arancini), 2 mains (eggplant penne, spaghetti and meatballs), a drink (pear mezcal) and 2 desserts (apple pie and flourless chocolate cake). I have to start by saying that the desserts are really what made my day - the cardamom ice cream is spectacular, the flourless cake is rich and but only mildly sweet, which makes it perfect! The mushroom crostini was super flavourful and the pear mezcal was delicious. The mains and arancini were decent but not something I’d order again especially given their price - just wasn’t quite worth it to me. Service: our waiter was really great and had good recommendations for us. Atmosphere: The space is very chic and the views of the bay from their second dining room are really lovely!

What a fantastic dining experience! You’d never guess how spacious this place is from the small entrance, but once inside, it feels lively and full of energy.The atmosphere is warm, the service is smooth, and the food truly stands out. We loved every dish,the fresh local peppers, flavorful linguine vongole,the fig and prosciutto starter, and the delicate tuna crudo. Everything was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. Easily one of the best meals I’ve had in a while!

If you’ve never been, find a way to make a reservation! You arrive at an unassuming “pink door” in an alleyway, and it opens up to a beautiful sprawling restaurant with packed tables. The place is bustling with live music, views of the bay, rustic Italian food, and apparently, at times, cabaret and trapeze acts. Already the immersion you get walking down from the entrance is an experience, but then it’s quickly backed up by a delicious meal. The ingredients in our starter dishes were palpably fresh and felt locally grown. If you’ve never had a homegrown tomato, it’s a whole other experience, especially when paired in a Caprese salad with freshly made mozzarella. The tuna crudo was also delicious, accompanied by a tangy vinaigrette and little salty accents from the olives and fried capers. From the main dishes, I felt the pappardelle was surprisingly the runaway star. Feel free to let go of any snobbery you have about ordering pasta out when it’s handmade like this. Each noodle was rolled so thin that you could practically see through it when held up. So delicate on the palate and accompanied by an earthy ragu sauce that had elements of carrot worked in. Amazing! There is always lots of rave about the Pink Door cioppino (seafood stew) and the lasagna. Unless you’re a diehard seafood fan, I would favor a noodle dish over the cioppino, because these people know how to roll out their pasta dough. Overall, landing a reservation in my estimation is challenging but worth the hype. Pro-tip: I found the restaurant opens a set of last-minute tables that you can snag same-day around 11am, so either camp out on the app or set an alert for available tables.

The Pink Door lives up to its reputation for atmosphere and charm. The staff were well-behaved and professional, which set the tone for a smooth evening. The food was a mix of highs and lows: the lasagna was truly outstanding — rich, comforting, and perfectly executed. The pistachio cream pasta was also a standout, unique and delicious. The fig salad was fresh and beautifully balanced, another highlight. The one disappointment was the salmon, which didn’t measure up to the other dishes. Overall, a memorable experience with some incredible plates that I’d happily return for, even if not everything was perfect.

we were in the waitlist to get a reservation and were luckily able to get one the day before. i am so incredibly happy my party and i were able to. we had the fish of the day, the lasagna, and the roasted duck followed by the butterscotch budino and the pumpkin bread pudding. one member of the party has a gluten allergy and our server was very knowledgeable to what she would be able to eat, it made the experience flawless. the entrees were all delightful and the desserts were other-worldly. truly, the pumpkin bread pudding is the best sweet i have ever bought. i felt like Anton Ego when he ate the ratatouille. i understand the hype for this place and believe it was surpassed.

Had reservations on halloween. Sam was best dressed - imo. First time here, beautiful atmosphere. Can get a little overwhelming when you first enter due to the stairs situation and difficult to find the restaurant due to lack of signage. Arancini - stunning, luscious Lasagna Pink Door - delcious, creamy Spaghetti and mama's meatballs - noodles cooked perfect al dente, sauce was delicious, unfortunately not a fan on the meatballs.. I didnt think to ask/think about the fennel seeds (similar to black licorice taste) in the meatball. My personal preference, I just didnt eat much of it. Service was pretty good. Water refills, spectacular. Within ten minutes we received our appetizer but our entree we got twenty minutes later.

Everything about The Pink Door was perfect.. from the ambiance to the service. The risotto with truffle popcorn was absolutely delicious and so flavorful. The meatball spaghetti was also rich and comforting, a definite favorite. Desserts were good overall. The Oreo with mint chocolate vanilla was fine, though not particularly extraordinary. Still, a wonderful dining experience and I would absolutely recommend it!

Thought Matt’s in the Market might be a tourist trap, but it completely exceeded expectations. Service was impeccable—even when there was a small hiccup with our reservation, it was promptly and professionally handled. The views are absolutely stunning, and the food is next level. The salmon was perfectly cooked—fresh, simple, and delicious. Highly recommend!

Located across from the famous Pike Place market sign. Make sure to make reservations. The restaurant does not have a massive amount of seating. All the staff here were amazing. Our bartender was the best. He gave us so many recommendations to visit around the area. He also was able to answer any questions we had. The ambiance was perfect with views of the market. Cleanliness was superb. The food was amazing. Would recommend this place and visit again.

Had a lovely time, great drinks, stellar service from Sam W. The oysters, beef tar tar, and pork were INCREDIBLE. My friends had the octopus and said the depth of flavor was spot on, they raved and raved about it! Sadly, I could only give 4 stars for the food because the halibut I had was overdone and therefore dry, even with the delicious gazpacho it was served with. Over cooked white fish is always a let down, but I would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

The menu here is very eclectic. ATMOSPHERE: As soon as you walk in it feels like you're in someone's apartment. Old, quaint, dim accent lighting, open air, cinder block walls & varnished wood ceilings with huge windows with a great view of the Public Market. The kitchen is in open view. FOOD: Burrata Mozzarella pieces with a balsamic fig sauce, fresh figs, rhubarb and toasted bread. This was really good. Nice app to sweeten your palette. Grilled Octopus Damn this was good! A couple of legs with kimchee & arugula. Yummy! Charcuterie The selection changes daily. We got steak tartar, rabbit patte, raw scallops with tobiko, and chicken liver mousse. Everything was delish! Raw phoebes beware! Half Roasted Chicken Crispy & tender chicken over mashed potatoes, with wild mushrooms, pearl onions and sprouts on the side. I almost never order chicken in restaurants because its so boring and common, but our server recommended this and it was delish! He might've changed my discriminative mind! Kurobuta Pork Tenderloin Super tender pre-cut chunks of pork with a smooth salty flavor, over a bed of mashed potatoes, greens, ham hock, and 2 pieces of chicharone. SERVICE: We had reservations for 9:30 pm. The place was still pretty busy. The host greeted us within a minute. Our server was very attentive and professional. Our drinks never got below half before they were refilled. Excellent without being overdone. OVERALL: Excellent food and service. A great alternative if you've had enough seafood.

The whole experience is quintessentially Seattle. Expect delicious seafood, excellent service, and a view right above Pike Place Market. Watching the sunset over the water beneath the buzz and glow of the iconic neon sign is an absolute bucket list dining experience. If you love seafood you can’t go wrong with the seafood stew. It’s absolutely loaded - salmon, clams, scallops. Yum!

The view and atmosphere were lovely! I don’t eat seafood, but my friends raved about the seafood stew and heirloom salad as they ate it. They will be full until tomorrow morning. I had a great time, the waiter was exceptionally friendly, and I left with a free cranberry juice. It was such a treat, and there was even ice! :)

Great location, delicious food, good service. The roasted beet salad with pitachios was our favorite. The crab roll tasted like a tuna fish sandwich (probably because of the mayo). Nice view of Pike's Place Market if you sit at the window.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is one of our favorite local spots. The food is amazing, good service and fun atmosphere with a slappin’ vibe. The crispy imperial rolls were generously stuffed, the beef/lamb rolls were perfectly seasoned, the combo platter was huge and delicious, and the braised beef soup special was a delicious and delightful way to stay warm on a cold, rainy Friday night. We love BaBar for the best Vietnamese food in the city. Also, when you compare prices to other Cap Hill restaurants, their prices are much better for the food and service you get. Also their playlist is fantastic! A good mixture of pop music classics and current Vietnamese pop!

Great vibes and spot-on décor make this bar an easy place to settle into. The staff were quick and friendly, and the cocktail menu—especially during happy hour—didn’t disappoint. Food was a mixed bag: my Cơm Gà fell short of expectations and the complimentary soup ran salty. Still, the atmosphere and drinks were strong enough that I’ll give it another go and try a different dish next time.

We went in for drinks and sat at the bar. After looking at the menu decided to stay for dinner. Absolutely amazing!!! REALLY good cocktails and the food out of this world. We had so much fun talking to staff behind the bar. We will definitely go back when visiting Seattle.

Excellent pho with variety of meat that you don’t find in other restaurants. I enjoyed the duck pho - the duck meat was tender and flavorful, the meatball is bouncy and tasty. My friend enjoyed the steak pho as well - she finished it in one go! The portion is also quite large.

I received a gift card from my sister and was encouraged to try out their iced coffee. The first time I came, I got just the iced coffee to go and it was okay. However I knew I had to come back to try the food as it smelled absolutely amazing in there. Today I came back and tried the pho tai lan. It was absolutely yummy. There are strong flavors of garlic and ginger. The meat was grilled to perfection as well. I ate every last bit of my pho and can’t wait to come back.

Went here for lunch and wow SO good!! The staff were very pleasant and even with it being busy, it didn’t feel crazy crowded or overly loud. We order the imperial rolls (10/10) would probably get these every time. They were an amazing appetizer. We also ordered the garlic butter prawns as a starter and they were really good but not as amazing as the imperial rolls maybe like an 8/10. The prawns were delicious though. We ordered 3 entrees, the Saigon Singapore noodle (10/10) so tasty, I cleaned the plate. We also got crispy pork belly, I didn’t try this one but my brother’s girlfriend ate all of it and said it was really good! And lastly, we got the Bun Cha Ha Noi bowl and the meat was so tender and delicious. The table also got a lemonade and coffee. The Vietnamese coffee my brother got smelled delicious and he drank it all and loved it. I haven’t been to the other locations but the Cap Hill one was great. They also had pastries to eat or take away. So so good!

I really liked the pandan cake and the rotisserie chicken rice, the sauce was so yummy. Good for Her(the cocktail with an umbrella decoration) was perfect without too much sweatness. The other cocktail was strong for me. The service was fast even though it was pretty busy. Update : I visited again after almost a year. The food was still good. But their service wasn't good this time. I felt like their waitress was pushing us to hurry. As soon as she served a dessert, she brought a machine and made us to pay even before trying the dessert. We even had no chance to see our bill...

While in Seattle I was looking for Asian Fusion and for a place not by the tourist area, found this place. Cool cozy atmosphere, not very large, so make a reservation. Service was great, our waiter was very helpful and on top of it. We had their onion Chinese pancake, which was very good, followed by their scallop fried rice. The fried rice was our favorite fried rice we have ever had. We then had their version of Kalbi Korean beef which was also very good. Finished it with their grilled octopus, great flavor but was a bit chewy. Beware of the 22% service charge automatically added to the bill (only 2 in our party). This was not optional, that’s my only major complaint for this restaurant. Next time I’m back in Seattle I will visit again.

The food reminded me of the "Golden" song by demon hunters, the quality of the dishes only went up, up, up. The crispy lettuce with chili oil of the chicory mango salad stimulated our appetite, making it the perfect starting dish. We had a couple of non alcoholic cocktails, flavours were balanced and even got a leechee on it. The spicy rice cake flavors were delicious, rice cakes were slightly toasted given them a crunchy texture. The palm heart dish has more of a earthy flavor. The palm retains the heat, it was a pleasant surprise. The star of the night "that sort rib steak", the meat was cooked perfectly, with a beautiful searing and a juicy light pink color inviting to chew it. The sauce is not my cup of tea, but it didn't stop us from enjoying an unique experience. Definitely I will be back.

Went for my 6 year anniversary and it was so so wonderful. Brandy was our server and just made us feel so loved and welcomed! Super attentive and warm service. We even got a free scallion pancake and dessert. Drinks were strong and so yummy. Ordered the scallop fried rice, octopus, and short rib. Scallop fried rice was 10/10. Pro tip, get the scallion pancake and put the salmon roe ON the scallop fried rice. Will def be coming back.

We ordered the Chinese scallion pancakes, black garlic noodles, octopus (forgot to take a photo) and the short rib eye steak. Everything was delicious, well presented and timed, and the service was impeccable. Strongly recommend this spot!! Closed off our trip by coming here and it was the perfect ending to a great trip.

Jeoul shares the hallway with another restaurant, it must be common that people make mistakes going to the wrong restaurant. With a reservation, we got seated right away. Service was great, no complaints, even though 22% service charge is automatically added to the bill, no matter the size of your party. The foods overall were pretty good in terms of texture, but most were on the salty side (even the desert has some sort of salt flakes in it).

Walked in on a Monday night with a friend—no tables but full service bar seating was available. Loved the scallion pancake—crème fraiche and chili crisp made it the best first bite of the meal. The “For You I Will” cocktail was dominated by the whiskey, but our bartender brought us tastes of the celery and “alpine” bitters that are ingredients, what a fun experience to sample! Innovative throughout the menu, would recommend.

i felt like the dishes werent amazing. the mango salad was a bit bitter for some reason. Scallion pancakes was pretty meh, just crispy -- no flakes, essentially no flavor -- the platter of garnishes were pretty laughable lol 4 pieces of parsley/cilantro and some chili oil that had 0 flavor on creme fraiche. The mussels were alright -- great sauce. Octopus was salty, redeemer was yet again the sauce. It's one of those really pretty, ambient places that you dont come to actually eat 🤷🏻‍♀️

Absolutely amazing experience from this restaurant group. I fell in love with Walrus and the Carpenter when first introduced and it’s been fun exploring some of Seattle’s best restaurants. At Bateau, they haul in one cow per week and use every piece for something different from beef tallow for fryers to high quality steaks. We had the chef’s special menu and it was worth every penny. Raw and cooked appetizers, chef’s selection cuts and a delicious homemade ice cream to finish. There was so much creativity and love put into this meal and it’s special for any foodie. Highly recommend putting Bateau on your list for the next big night out. Can’t wait to try other sister restaurants! It’s incredible every time!

This is one of my favorite places to get a steak in Seattle, but also just a great experience even if you're *not* looking to go nuts on steak. The menu model is very interesting, and creates a unique kind of excitement about going there. Maybe that's not for everyone. But hey, if you want to get the same cut of mediocre steak, go find a mediocre steakhouse. If you really want something delicious, high quality, and a bit more unique... that's what you come here for! Your best bet is to get here ASAP after it opens for dinner to take advantage of your opportunity to take your pick of very limited quantities of their best cuts if you really want a good steak. I like the 21/42 day aged ribeyes best, personally. They are always perfectly seared, cooked exactly med rare (or whatever you ask), have just the right amount of seasoning, and the steak takes the spotlight. If you don't want to go too crazy on the meat, I love the chef's menu, where you're sure to get fun surprises and applications of parts of beef you won't commonly find in most restaurants. They've a pretty good selection of wine, and the servers are knowledgeable enough to help you navigate the options and pair with your specific meal and taste preferences. Heard from a friend Bateau is looking to change things up in the near future. I'm optimistic about the future of the place but I'll just have to wait and see.

Bateau truly understands the balance of fat, acid and salt. Every dish is innovative, fun, delicious and interesting. The mushrooms are a dream. The potato ice cream is complex and comforting. Every special we’ve tried has been worthy of being called a special. I will forever covet the french onion croquettes. The steaks - perfection. The best part? The lovely people who work at bateau. They are professional, but personable. They come with great energy and happy smiles. The food, while beyond fabulous, pales in comparison to those who keep it running. We adore the entire crew and team at bateau, everyone goes above and beyond. We are particularly fond of Kit, Olivia, Tyler and Kai, but you can’t lose with any team member! This place is special because of them. We were so saddened to learn that bateau and boat bar are closing for a revamp and desperately hope all the wonderful crew will return when the new edition reopens in a few months.

Dined on 6/7 for a birthday celebration (noted in our reservation). Bad experience at Bateau, and unfortunately, mostly disappointing. While the steak was decent (though slightly overcooked), most of the dishes were overly salty. But the real letdown was the service—by far one of the worst we’ve experienced in a fine dining or bistro setting, especially considering the price point. Service was highly inconsistent. Two staff members stood out for their kindness and professionalism. However, the rest of the service was bafflingly poor. One male server with short blonde hair was noticeably impatient and unapproachable. He handled our plates without asking, dropped dishes at our table without saying a word, and—most frustratingly—took away a drink that was still 2/3 full without any explanation or apology. When we asked about it before leaving, staff couldn't locate it. The response from another female server was dismissive: "He just threw it away somehow, what do you want me to say?" The server who took it never reappeared or apologized, even after we waited a good five minutes. Two other staff members kindly tried to help look for the drink, but the damage had been done. What made the evening feel even worse was the moment we noticed the table next to us receiving a candle and birthday cheer—while our own celebration was completely ignored, despite noting it in our reservation. We weren’t expecting anything elaborate, but the difference in treatment was stark. It left us wondering—why the discrepancy? It’s hard not to question whether unconscious bias or racism played a role. On top of that, the 22% service fee is automatically added, and only ~45% reportedly goes to the actual servers. We only found this out through other Google reviews. No one at the restaurant proactively discloses this, likely because they're not allowed to. It’s the restaurant’s responsibility to properly disclose it. Parking was a hassle—street parking is scarce, and the nearest option is a sketchy QFC garage that costs $7/hour. In summary: hit-or-miss food, wildly inconsistent service, disappointing treatment on what was supposed to be a special occasion. Given the price, Bateau simply doesn't deliver, and Seattle people deserves a higher standard.

I tried the tasting menu and wine pairing. The starters were amazing. Different ways of cooking beef really opened my eyes. The brioche from the tartine was very crispy and the barley risotto was very creamy. I could definitely have more of the starters. However, I was rather disappointed by the main dish: two different styles and parts of steaks. I felt like the steaks were a little bit overcooked. Nonetheless, the entire experience was still very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend someone to have the tasting menu if this is their first time.

One of the few steakhouses in Seattle, with friendly staff and unique decor and atmosphere. Overall, the food is good but portions are not necessarily big. The value is not ideal because of this, in raport to the price. Steak wise, there is a huge variety of cuts you can choose from along with sides. I would suggest to ask for recommendations based on what you’ve liked before at other steaks - the staff is knowledgeable and helpful.

ATMOSPHERE: Bateau felt a little understated yet cozy as the sun was setting. Tables slowly filled up which meant that the ones closest to us were vacant for the first few minutes of our dine. Not very noisy for the smaller size of the dining room. SERVICE: Our waiter guided us through the (somewhat) unique ordering process and answered all of our questions regarding the cuts. She was very attentive and had an easy way of conversing. We felt this from everyone who was there that night. FOOD: incredible. The dry aged beef is wonderful and I highly recommend trying 2-3 different cuts side by side with the different butter pairings. The octopus and beef jerky were excellent appetizers. The cocktails were very good but nothing crazy, which in my opinion, is the safe route for an establishment unless their thing is to craft wild drinks. Check out Bateau in CapHill for an awesome beef experience!

The fired risotto balls has to be the best we have had till date!! We tried their Margherita and Romana pizza and they both we so so good!! Will definitely visit again

Visited for dinner and ordered their house-made meatballs, grilled octopus, Suppli al Telefono, Salame Piccante pizza and a rhubarb spritzer. Food and drinks were awesome and the service was great. Looking forward to visiting again.

Incredibly delicious high quality pizza and food ruined by one unforgivable detail: Those horribly chintzy wine glasses they’ve always insisted on using. These small, low, flat-bottomed PsOS you can buy by the gross at the Container Store have no place on the table next to such divine pie. These glasses suck the soul out of the whole enterprise. First, no matter how accurately the pour was metered, it always looks like a short pour. Bring up your doubts with the server, and they will absolutely shame you for doubting the volumetric fidelity. And the experience of drinking from such an uncivilized trough is worse still. Unlike with a proper wine glass, you can’t delicately hold the stem or base, raise it up to the light and tilting , contemplating the colors and tannins and legs. Nor can you comfortably wrap your hand under the bowl and swirl, you can’t get your nose in it. You can’t properly experience the wine how it’s supposed to be experienced. Which ultimately detracts from experiencing the pizza.

Lovely neighbourhood small plates style Italian restaurant. Pizza seemed very popular but we went for a variety of dishes. Salads were interesting and amazingly fresh. The octopus and potato is amazing. Great service, good value wines.

My wife and I came here for my birthday dinner and it was incredible! I've been on an Italian pizza kick recently (thanks Stanly Tucci) and this place knocked it out of the park. Best margherita I've had in Seattle. They do it all right and it shows!

Lively neighborhood Italian restaurant with plenty of great specials. The service is friendly, the dishes are a good size and easy to share. Presentation is no-frills, but the flavors make up for it with great quality ingredients that are well paired. Definitely worth a stop.

One of the best Italian places in Seattle, definitely a local neighborhood restaurant style with great patio set up. Definitely book ahead as they get filled pretty fast on weekends. Staff is friendly and food was great! We ordered the Margherita pizza, Salame Piccante pizza, Italian sausage with figs, Fried risotto balls- these were amazing. Drinks were nice too.

Had high hopes for this place that fell flat. Did the tasting menu and the person I was with and I didn’t really like anything 😔 They gave old looking carrots (browned) and pieces of lettuce on the pickle appetizer. Weird that they gave jalapeño watermelon bites and called that one of their items. Their croquette was too oily and creamy to finish. Eggplant was unpleasant. Soba was nothing special at all, and the duck one was extremely salty even watered down. Had like 2 meatballs but even with that small of quantity I didn’t want to eat them. Best thing was the dessert, that was good. Would not go again or recommend. Def overhyped. Very expensive for what you get too, everything is greatly overpriced. I like the interior but their menu, offerings & everything seem like smoke and mirrors. Bowls are mainly from crate and barrel and cups from ikea too which wasn’t impressive lol for the price you pay. Also no AC, we were sweating while eating.

This Japanese restaurant specializes in soba (Japanese noodles) with a duck broth and duck meat. They also have other traditional Japanese foods, as well as a fairly large drink selection. The food is pretty tasty, and the service very good. The environment itself is run down, but passable. Be prepared that they automatically add a 20% gratuity to your bill. It's an okay place to try.

The restaurant is small and noisy, but the food is good. Shrimp tempera is very good! It is the best shrimp tempura I have ever had! The shrimp is fresh. The fried skin is thin and crispy. The dipping sauce is also wonderful with a little plum flavor. The uni shiso tempera is also very good! But we didn’t enjoy the soba too much. The dunk meat has good flavor and texture, but the dipping soup is very salty. Chawamushi is good with lots of flavor and soft steam egg. They add 20% tips BEFORE tax on the check.

Authentic Japanese vibes, great ambiance and welcoming staff, I loved the voice of our server and we sat at the bar looking into the kitchen seeing all of it happen! Def go for the side dishes, and try to share a noodle, one bowl is definitely too much for one person :) a memorable night!

Got the barely tea, duck dipping soba and the tempura mochi with sesame ice cream. They start the meal with a free piece of cucumber and miso. The miso is way too sweet. The must order of the night was the tempura mochi with sesame ice cream. The crunchy tempura paired with the soft bouncy mochi and light sweet sesame was divine. The dipping broth was the best part of the soba. Duck meatball had a nice bounce and a peppery kick. The duck was too tough and a little gamey and I normally love duck. Maybe a different soba. Tea was refreshing to beat the heat.

I was very disappointed with Kamonegi. I love soba especially paired with tempura; those were the best kind of meals I had in Japan. I expected to experience the same going to Kamonegi. However, I left the restaurant very disappointed… I ordered Ten Zaru which comes with veggie tempura, ordered 4 pieces of shrimp tempura, and a few starters. It was really disappointing because the quality of the veggies and shrimp they used was really good however for it to be coated with such thick, greesy, and heavy batter did not do the ingredients justice. I expect a place advertising as a tempura place to have fluffy, light tempura as I’m used to in Japan. Also Soba noodles were too al dente, made it hard to enjoy with the dipping sauce. Other than that I thought their starters were unique. I enjoyed their squid deviled eggs and ikura with tempura shiso leaves (although again I did not like the tempura batter) :(

Delicious, freshly made soba noodles in a tiny, bustling corner wedged between Wallingford and Fremont. The vegetable tempura was a delight as well. The Uni Shiso bomb was fantastic...I could eat a bunch of them, if they weren't so (understandably) pricey. Friendly and very knowledgeable staff that take pride in the food they are serving. Parking is very difficult as is getting a seat. It's best to make a reservation. I dined alone and was lucky to get in.

We ordered oysters, snails, fish and steak. From all of it the best were two first. Fish was with super sweet and having corn made it even more. You could not taste fish at all. The mint leaves helped to break the sweet flavor but I wouldn’t recommend it. Th steak was okay definitely better than fish dish. We ordered also two wines (red and white) both recommended to dish. The red one was very watery witb little bite. Not our fav. The anniversary candles on paper were weird.

We visited Loursin restaurant today, and from the very beginning, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Unlike some other reviews, we found the service to be genuinely hospitable. The food was delicious — a bit on the saltier side for my taste, but still very good. Our server, Jack, was helpful, attentive, and open to feedback. The onion soup was outstanding — even better than what we tried in Paris! Overall, the experience was great, though it’s on the pricier side with a 20% service charge included. A lovely evening and a great dining experience.

Overall, a very solid experience. Some of their items blew me away and some were very meh. Fair warning you will have to pay for bread, but ask your server if any of your other items you order come with bread because one of ours did and we also ordered the bread so we had so much leftover. The French onion soup was out of this world. They use a veal broth instead of a beef and it gave it such a deep umami taste and I would say it’s one of the best FOS I’ve ever had. I will also say we had a charred prawn dish in a compound butter sauce that was so to die for. It almost tasted like a tikka masala sauce and paired so well with the bread (this was the dish we ordered that came with its own bread). The biggest disappointment for us had to be the steak frites. They charge pretty hefty price for a rather cheap cut of meat (flank steak) but I was willing to bite because I’m a sucker for a steak frites. While many things on the menu were not overpriced for me this one absolutely was. You get a rather tough and cheap cut of meat for damn near 50 dollars. This is the only nice French restaurant I’ve been to that uses a flank steak for their steak frites and it’s honestly jarring. Mind you their only other steak entree was a 3 lb T-Bone priced at 175 which is impossible to share if you’re there as a couple. Avoid this entree and look at others. Definitely not a bad spot for French in Seattle.

Tried this French restaurant, located in the Central District area. It is situated at the crossroads of First Hill, Capitol Hill and Central District. We tried various items on the menu, but probably should have sticked to the small plates. The XOXO TOMMY was recommended but I was not impressed with the drink. Should have trusted my gut and tried their version of the Espresso Martini instead. As for food, the salad and prawns were my favorite dishes. I was however disappointed with the steak-frites. Was expecting it to taste better, but the texture seemed off for me. Almost reminded me of roast beef but more rare. The sauce was not amazing either. I think if I go back, I would try their chicken instead. Also, we were there for our anniversary dinner and marked this on the Resy reservation, but it wasn’t acknowledged. We also specified the dietary preferences, but were still asked about it. I guess the info from the Resy reservation was either ignored or not received. Would have been nice if it was acknowledged to set-up the dinner. Overall, the food was great and will likely go back, but stick to smaller plates only.

Loved this place! The Burgundy snails were amazing — super flavorful and tender. They have a great wine selection, and the food is a nice mix of French style with a bit of American twist. Prices are on the higher side with a 20% service fee, but overall it’s totally worth it. Perfect spot for a date night.

We had an amazing meal with wonderful wait staff who were very helpful and gave us plenty of time to converse and enjoy all of the dishes. We ordered over half of the menu for our group of four and we're thoroughly sated. The oysters were as absolutely fresh and sweet as they could be. The pate, the tartar and the smelt were top notch.

They have good tasting tap water which was a good news because the tartar was very salty, or that’s what I thought until they brought out the french onion soup. Which had my weekly dose of sodium and was inedible.

We tried Mean Sandwich and ordered the “WTK?” — a fried chicken Po’boy sandwich with Skins and Ins (Salt & Pepa), and it was absolutely perfect. The sandwich was packed with flavor, and the bread deserves a special shoutout — crispy on the outside, soft and fresh on the inside. It held everything together beautifully without getting soggy. The fried chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned, and the Skins and Ins were a fun, flavorful side that complemented the sandwich really well. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the mood for a seriously good sandwich — we’ll definitely be back to try more!

Did an online order and dined right out on the dog-friendly patio. Fantastic sandwiches and the crispiest tastiest potatoes to go alongside them! So happy with this Saturday lunch choice. Highly recommend the Mean Sandwich and Midnight at the Oasis!

My favorite restaurant in Seattle.. LOVE THIS PLACE!! Everything on the menu is delicious, but you have to order The D.A.M. Burger. It’s the best burger in the city. My other go-to order is the Jersey Sub, but don’t sleep on the falafel sandwich. And those potato skins are so addicting. The staff is incredible and very welcoming. Shoutout to Skyler! I wish they were open later.. I’d be there twice a week 😋

Came down to Seattle for a night from Canada and was looking for a sandwich spot for lunch. Ben and Dan introduced themselves while we were looking at the menu and never pressured us into ordering right away. We decided on getting The Mean Sandwich ($19) which comes with crispy potato skins on the side.The pickled red cabbage and mint made the sandwich taste phenomenal, we wanted more mint if anything. After each bite, the mustard flavour comes in at the end and the corned beef meat was pretty tender. The only downside was that our buns got quite soggy. They were thin so it didn't hold up to the sandwich fillings as I would have liked. It's a matter of personal preference on what kind of bread you like for your sandwiches though. I am saddened since I don't live in Seattle because I want to revisit this restaurant again to try their other sandwiches. Ben and Dan are super hospitable and pleasant to chat with. This is a restaurant where you can feel the amount of dedication and care they have for their food and customers.

I was in Seattle for work and out of all the places I visited, Mean Sandwich was the place that stuck with me. From the moment I walked in, Dan welcomed me in, and asked how he could help. I asked for the recommended sandwich and he said that the Mean Sandwich is what they're named after. And it absolutely did not disappoint (see pictured). Unbelievably delicious. Tastes better than perhaps it looks, and I think it looks mighty fine. Great presentation! Dan was willing to provide more recommendations on other restaurants in the neighborhood worth going to, which was helpful in planning out my trip. And I do want to note, Dan treated every single customer with the same enthusiasm and care. I'd absolutely make the trip back here again if and when I'm back in the area!

First time trying. Read an article about this place in the morning, ordered a Mean sandwich for lunch. Honestly, didn’t expect much but pleasantly surprised. So good. Cabbages, perfect. Deep fried potatoes, a little over done and a little too salty but otherwise, delicious! Would definitely go back and try other ones.

Came here per TikTok recommendation and ordered the beautifully colorful corned beef sandwich and the smash burger. Perfect portions and perfect flavors. The owner stopped by to chat with us and was so personable. Can’t wait to revisit next time I’m in Seattle!

We’ve overlooked Ting’s in the past, but last week we needed delivery and decided to give it a try. Delivery was so good, we decided to try the dine in today. Every dish was delicious. The Fried Mushrooms were probably our favorite, savory umami flavors, crispy on the outside, melt in our month goodness. Temperature is also super important to taste and every dish was served piping hot.

We found this place to be a hidden gem. The hot and sour soup had just enough spice for flavor but not enough to burn, which was nice for us. We got the sweet and sour pork tenderloin and the pork and Fennel dumplings. The sweet and sour pork was fantastic - none of the Fatty left-over bbq pork you get at other places, nor pineapple and veg to bulk the order out. Just the fried breaded pork in sauce. Lovely and tender. The dumplings are hand made on site, and simply delicious. We were very happy and are looking forward to our next visit.

Huge portions!! The braised beef noodle soup and dry string bean are so yummy! I love their handmade dumplings, the fried ones have the crispy snowflake on them! Try the pork and fennel ones! Especially good with their chili oil, vinegar, and soy sauce on the table!!

Little Ting's is fantastic! The in-person dining experience is wonderful and being able to buy frozen dumplings to take home for later is such a treat. I get such nostalgia eating the dumplings 水餃 and always have decision paralysis when looking at the menu because there are just so many good options.

I have eaten a LOT of soup dumplings in my life, many in the Seattle area. Little Ting’s is the TASTIEST I have ever tried! The servers are polite, and the food came out FAST. Definitely a hidden gem of a restaurant. Seating for 1-6 at standard booths and tables. They have a separate eating nook for larger parties.

Amazing service. Delicious dumplings and noodles. Highly recommended for a quick bite, or a meal with friends and family. We had the xiaolongbao, such great value for such a well made soup dumpling, the skin was thin and soup, delicious. The handmade spicy noodles were amazing, just the right amount of spice, and the noodles were chewy and tasty. We had the pork and fennel dumplings, delicious. Highly recommended, just the right mix of meat and fennel flavour. We spent about 15 per person. Service was great, the gentleman working that day was attentive and our cups never ran empty. Highly recommended. Would definitely come again.

Now I know the reason their take out service is nonstop: the dumplings ($13) and potstickers ($13) are tremendous. Their dumpling making operations are transparent: they are preparing them right behind the bar counter so you can see that process. So adroit and skillful. Also, delicious is the soy milk they serve. They packaged everything well, so it arrives intact and hot. In occasion you may have to wait a while for the food. Also the takeout business is very clip.

found this place as a pretty informal, cheap, mostly-takeout option for street Indian food - which is not a common thing to find around here so props for that I got the lamb variety of their kathi roll - which is just a roti wrapped around a meat + chutney & onions. I generally liked this roll. It came with three lamb patties inside - each of which has cooked pretty well. the long time given to the marinade definitely shows up in the flavor, especially on the outside. As for the add-ons, the green chutney is pretty solid as well. While it's not quite a flavor punch, it gives enough hints of the flavor that it performs its job as the sauce. The roti that its wrapped in is also lightly toasted, which is nice because it balances that mix between hard & soft so that it holds its shape For the price, this ended up costing me about $11 - which is a decent deal. It's not a huge portion, but it's honestly enough for a lunch Overall, this is a pretty cool concept, and while the food isn't quite a flavor experience, it's still a pretty enjoyable meal. 8.15/10

Food was DELICIOUS!! Super quick and casual. I would highly recommend getting a chutney, like the cilantro chutney. There was very limited seating, so I would recommend getting the food to go. It was also pretty affordable. If you are looking to grab a quick lunch or dinner, or getting food to go, I would definitely recommend this. If you are looking for a sit down meal, come back another day. Overall, Ana amazing delicious restaurant!

SpiceWala is a wonderful spot for authentic Indian snacks and chai. The vibe is warm with Bollywood music, plenty of seating, and an inviting atmosphere—perfect for groups. We tried the Bhel Puri and Masala Chai, both tasted authentic, and the chai was served with biscuits just like in India. The highlight for me was their in-house paneer and open kitchen, which is very clean and transparent. Parking can be a bit tricky (street parking or Safeway lot nearby), and the Bhel Puri portion felt slightly small, but the taste was absolutely 10/10. Overall, highly recommended if you’re craving real Indian flavors.

Spice Waala is a fantastic spot for authentic Indian street food! The snacks are flavorful and true to what you’d find in India - perfectly seasoned and freshly made. Their chai and lassi are both excellent, and the soft serve is a fun and delicious bonus with flavors changing every month. You can really taste the care and authenticity in everything they serve. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, and the service is always friendly. It’s the perfect place to grab a quick bite or satisfy a craving for real Indian flavors. Highly recommend for anyone who loves good food and great vibes!

Just, wow. I ordered the lamb roll with egg and it was sublime. I nearly coughed when I was hit with so much flavor and juice in that first bite. Incredible flavor, straight forward and quick service and an accessible menu. Go. Today.

Spice Waala is a delightful Indian street food gem nestled in the heart of Seattle. I recently indulged in their Chicken Tikka Kathi Roll and Aloo Tikki Chaat, and they transported me back to the bustling streets of India with their explosive flavors. Each mouthful of Aloo Tikki Chaat offers a symphony of textures and flavors, ranging from the crispy tikki to the creamy yogurt and the vibrant tang of the chutneys. As for the Chicken Tikka Kathi Roll, the real star of the show were the tender, marinated chicken tikka pieces, which brought an extraordinary burst of flavor to every bite. Service was top-notch as well, with quick turnaround time and attentive staff. My only wish? More seating to savor the experience fully. Nevertheless, the portion sizes are generous, perfect for a snack, although for a full meal, you might want to consider ordering two items (just my opinion). Can't wait to explore more of their tantalizing menu offerings!

I LOVE the food! I’m so Lucky I can order from the take out window in Columbia City. I always order 2 of the Snack Chana Chaat and the Kathi rolls. Flavor explosion!

Got the lamb noodles with soup, amount of lamb was pretty good for the price point in downtown. I do think University District is slightly better in terms of taste. Many people here are relating this outlet to NYC Xian foods but both aren’t related. For Seattle its a good, clean atmosphere.

My husband and I have been searching for authentic Chinese food and who would’ve thought we would find it in a mall! The noodles were thick and soaked up the sauce well, the vegetables side dishes were flavorful and exactly like the ones we had in Beijing. We will be back whenever we’re in the Seattle area.

My first time in is food court inside the Westlake mall. Order done using the kiosk. The beef and noodles (no soup) were thick and spicy. Not a lot of beef. Despite the fact it was no soup dish, the food was still wet. Service was a bit slow. Sitting area was clean. Overall it was tasty and good for lunch.

Omg the food here is soooo good!! Definitely try the lamb or beef noodles with "no-soup" (it's not dry despite the name, it's very juicy and flavorful! Stir it and cover everything in the juice at the bottom!) Noodles are excellent and so are the veggies, sauce, and meat! It's affordable especially for the good portion size, you don't see that anymore! Employees were also super nice! There's a bunch of seating and it's peaceful to eat there. Located on the second floor of the mall. 100% will be back!

Little gem inside the mall. Went in today to try for the first time and was superbly impressed. It's also woman-owned so I'm extra happy it was good because I will be coming back to support! Biang noodles are chewy and wide and dumpling feel very much like a mom and pop shop's. The noodle soup broth was light and delicious. The medium spicy level on the biang noodles was relatively mild for someone who likes spice but was really good. All orders are done on the self order kiosk and it's really easy to track your order on screen or just wait for text saying it's ready. Everything was pretty affordable too which is an extra plus. It's in a good court area upstairs so plenty of seating around. Excellent place all around, so happy to have found it!

Rode the Link into Westlake Center and ate lunch here before walking downtown Seattle. While the portions were on the light side, the food was delicious and we ordered enough to fuel us for the day. I would definitely eat here again.

Mall food court restaurant that's not bad. Got the Beef Dry Noodles with Vegetables, and tasted fine. You order through a touchscreen display, so pretty easy to customize your order.

Simply underwhelming. Our experience was disappointing from start to finish. Despite arriving on time for our reservation, we were left waiting outside for 20 minutes with no explanation — a sign of poor management and disorganization. Every dish that came out was incredibly salty — to the point where we went through three large bottles of water during the meal. The collard green salad likely contained a fistful full of salt, so was the deviled eggs. It was hard to enjoy the food with us grasping for water after each bite. Lastly, service was poor and essentially nonexistent. At the start, we asked the host to help get our server’s attention. She said she would — but never followed through. Instead, we watched her return to her tasks and ignore our call for help completely.

I had been wanting to come here and I'm so glad that I finally made it! I was expecting the food to be good, but it still blew me away. The flavors of both the dishes and the cocktails were perfectly balanced and very interesting and compelling. The biscuits were insanely flaky, the collard greens were soft but with a bit of bite, and the chicken wings had a crisp outside but were super juicy inside. The service was also impeccable. Our host and waiter were both friendly, conversational, and approachable, but the service itself felt like a fine dining experience. Honestly, I was blown away with all aspects and plan to return soon!

Hands-down, the best food I had in Seattle! If you don’t make a stop here when you go to Seattle, you’re truly missing out on truly good food. I ate at many spots while staying in Seattle, but no place compared to the cuisine and this restaurant. Award-winning chef Kristi Brown is the co-owner and part of the reason why this place is amazing! I have absolutely no complaints, the staff were friendly, the food was amazing, and again if you don’t make it to this restaurant while in Seattle, your Taste buds are truly missing out. My friend and I tried so many items on the menu because everything looked great! All this to say… Run, do not walk to this restaurant.

Had a few really great visits in the last year. Their pork chop, Berber chicken and cornbread were amazing. On the latest visit we were craving the old menu. Couldn't order cornbread as a side.. why not?? The BBQ chicken was pretty good. The new fried pork chop was decent (but the old one was better). The Laotian dumplings were meh (the sauce was tasty but the consistency was just too soft/mushy for such large dumplings). The pound cake was delicious (not too lemony). I don't have a sweet tooth but would happily get that again.

I don’t say this often, but this spot is one of my new faves. Pro tip, make a reservation. I love that they change up the menu and use local vendors. We got the deviled eggs. So decadent. We got the clams with Laos sausage, one of my must eats. We got blackened salmon special which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. And we got the jerk chicken with magical ranch. The mac and cheese and the okra were chefs kiss. It was so dang good. I have a less common Asian name and they said my name correctly and I can’t tell you how much that warms my heart. The staff was personable, friendly and made us feel so welcome. Communion is officially on my food rotation list.

Communion Restaurant in Seattle is a fun place with very good food and drinks. The workers are nice and make you feel welcome. The drinks are also very good and go well with the food. Music plays inside, which makes it fun, but it can be a little loud. There is no parking lot, so you have to park on the street, which can be hard. It’s best to come early. Overall, it’s a great place to eat and enjoy with family or friends.

I have been to Communion three times now and have had 5 star service, drinks, food, and a great experience each time. Their food is SO. GOOD. You MUST get the deviled eggs and unc’s wings. Communion’s food looks incredible, tastes even better, and they never miss. I just love that, each time a plate was set down in front of me & my friends, absolute joy and excitement lit up our faces and then our bellies :) Cannot recommend Communion enough & while it may seem like special occasion kind of place, each dish tastes like home and I never need a reason to go here other than, I feel like it. Please do not wait for an excuse to celebrate, and get yourself to Communion for an amazing meal.

I love this place. They serve slices. The pizza is fantastic; same high quality every time and they have rotating specials that are all delicious. The service is kind and reliable, and the atmosphere isn't too intense or pretentious, given their location and Delancey relationship. Great people-watching spot, as it's right on the corner of a busy intersection in Cap Hill. Happy to include this place in my regular rotation.

Food: the spicy sausage pizza was so oily and way too salty. The cheese was super dry and not melty (could be because it was left out for takeout). Overall, I would not recommend the spicy sausage pizza. The other pizzas seemed like they could be better but we didn't try it so I can't confirm. Based off the sausage, I would give a 2 star but want to give the benefit of the doubt. The dough was okay. Service: nothing notable. Atmosphere: seems like a nice bar to sit with friends and chat over a drink and pizza.

New York style pizza in a dive bar setting. Parking is atrocious. I call it new york style as the slices are reheated before served. I had a square detroit style or deep dish square cut pepperoni slice and a white slice along with a beer. Some of the crust on my white pie was burnt beyond being edible. Interior has stong dive bar vibes. Silverware doesn't seem like an option. If I lived in the neighborhood, was drunk and it was 2am... this would be a great spot.

Top-notch late-night Pizza joint. A New York-style slice available until 2:00 am on the weekends.

Always wanted to check this place out, finally did, was not disappointed. The classic with anchovies was perfection, will be going back for more.

We were looking for a late night bite and chose to check out Dino's. The pizza was excellent. From the dough that was crispy and chewy, to the fresh vegetables on the broccoli special and the pepperoni it was all great. The sauce was tangy and sweet, a perfect combo for a slice or two. As someone who grew up in Western NY, this was the closest I've had to some late night pizza joints. The beer selection was great as well as the atmosphere. I will definitely be going back the next time I am in town.

Lived by here for many years. Really nice atmosphere inside, always good service. Every time I wish the pizza was good. Unfortunately it really, really, is not. This time I had two slices of square pepperoni that were burnt to the point of inedibility.

I ordered the steak Caesar salad and left feeling underwhelmed. While the flavor was decent, the portion was minimal for the price, and the “steak” was more like shredded meat—definitely not what you'd expect from a steak salad. This spot is conveniently close to my new office, so I had high hopes, but unfortunately, the experience was a disappointment. Hopefully, they consider adjusting portion sizes and being more accurate with menu descriptions going forward.

Bounty Kitchen is the sort of establishment that wraps you up in warmth the moment you walk in. The food is vibrant, nourishing, and made with the sort of care that only love for the food and people can create. The atmosphere is cozy and full of life, and Meg made us feel like old friends visiting her kitchen. You don’t just eat here, you feel at home. I’ll never be in the neighborhood and not look for a reason to stop by.

Bounty kitchen in queen Anne holds a wonderfully warm and homey vibe. It was my first (of many to come) trip and I could not for the life of me decide what to eat. The whole menu had a clearly made from scratch feel. I asked the wonderful lady working the window (one of the owners) what I should get. After a few qualifying questions she suggested the potlickers bowl. It was an excellent suggestion. I paired it with a Rachel's Ginger Beer lemon and ginger soda. Everything was exactly what I didn't know I needed in my life! If ever I'm the queen Anne area of Seattle I highly suggest stopping in.

Bounty Kitchen is so cute. The atmosphere is cute and family style! The people are so kind! Their salads are delish and flavorful! We also got their juices and I TOTALLY recommend getting a juice. It was so delicious and fresh! I would go back just to even get the juice! Instagram - Madeline’s_Dines

Enjoyed my first time there, close to my gym. I meal prep, & fully appreciated the healthy options, orange infused water and adding a sliced apple was a nice touch. The cool framed mirror in the bathroom made me do a selfie, I’m 44,yeah!! 😂 Thanks for the cool decor and tasty meals.

Up on Queen Anne hill is this cute little restaurant. I had the Marrakech Market Bowl. It was delicious and very filling. The staff were very kind and helpful.

The food here is amazing, I eat out a lot and this is the healthiest food with the best seasoning and sauces. The steak and cheese is the second best I have had in my life. Seriously incredible steak and cheese. Braised beef bowl my wife got was also insanely delicious. They have gluten free pancakes as well. Do not miss this spot, I would easily drive 45 minutes to eat here if I lived closer.

Being from the East Coast, finding good pizza in the Seattle Area has been a struggle. I had cheese, and my son had pepperoni. The slices were larger than I expected, but I wouldn't call it massive, I've grown accustomed to smaller slices out here. The crust had a good bite to it. The cheese and sauce combo was above average. My kid destroyed his slice of pepperoni he's a toddler and usually doesn't eat much. I took a bite of his to try to pepperoni. It had the old world preservative free sausage flavor, which, unfortunately for me, I'm not a huge fan of, and I know I am wrong for that opinion. The walls had some artwork on them pretty generic, but a wall was dedicated to awards from local, regional, and national magazines and competitions. I will say without knowing beforehand that this was initially a "food truck." I have had the on the road wood fired pizzas at farmers markets from them. I didn't realize until I saw the truck last week. Getting Veraci fresh off the truck that maybe them "famous" was possibly one of the best pizzas I've had in the area. So I'm a little disappointed in the reheated slices I got at the Ballard location. The service was great. We were the only ones in there, and they took care of us well and were helpful. Parking extremely limited. Overall, I'd say make sure you get the pizza fresh and not a reheated slice. I'm rarely in that part of town. I wouldn't be against going again but will look to try other options nearby first to see if they are better.

We built our own pizza here and ate outside at one of their tables. The wood-fire pizza was excellent. Thin crust and spices that were the perfect blend made this pizza delicious. We appreciated the location a short drive from the zoo, the ability to park right there, and a pizza that was prepared in just ten minutes. I would recommend this to anyone. Many people picked up take out while we were there. Polite and helpful staff!

One of my favorite slices in Seattle. Just good solid pizza. Portions are great and the fresh slices have that perfect combination of crunchy and chewy. The reheated ones are solid, obviously not as good but better than most places.

We hired Veraci to cater our wedding at WithinSodo, and could not have been happier with the experience. This is coming from a pizza hobbyist/snob, who has his own pizza oven and experiments with all style pizzas :) Veraci provided pizza and salad for approximately 140 people (roughly 120 guests and 20 vendors). They were flexible in accommodating all the dietary needs of our vegan/GF guests and easy to communicate with.The pizza itself was really great, and guests really loved both it and the salads. The pizza also came out even better than when we had tasted it at the Ballard location. The pleasant wood-fired smell also helped anchor memories of our wedding. The Veraci staff was incredibly kind and timely. As a nice unplanned touch, they put the leftover pizzas into boxes, which we put out for guests at the after-party. Had we known, we would have maybe ordered some extra pizzas to be made for that purpose, and we would have not planned for any additional late-night food, which would have further simplified our catering logistics.

Veraci Pizza catered our ~100 person wedding and they absolutely blew us away! From start to finish, they went above and beyond - not just with the food, which was phenomenal and a huge hit amongst guests - but with their thoughtfulness, professionalism, and genuine care for our big day. They were so conscious and accommodating for our guests' dietary needs. My maid of honor has celiac disease, and we also had guests who were gluten- and dairy-free. They didn't just handle it - they took it seriously, safely, and with compassion. Also a really nice touch, they hand delivered my new husband and me a heart-shaped pizza during the reception. You could tell they really wanted to make the experience special! They were also incredibly helpful throughout the planning process - offering opinions on flow, layout, and beyond just the catering. It was truly an incredible experience all around! If you're considering them for your wedding or any event, do it. Errin and her team knocked it out of the park. And people couldn't stop talking about how great the food was! SO happy we chose Veraci!!!

We had Veraci cater our pre-wedding celebration, and it was such a hit! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how fresh and delicious the pizzas were. The setup was smooth, the service was friendly, and everything went perfectly. Huge thanks to Errin Byrd and her team for making the night so memorable!

Wow - everything about this place is so unassuming except for the pizza! I had driven past it countless times, but never thought to stop in. Big mistake! This is the best pizza I’d had in Seattle, and I’d been to all the trendy spots. It's thin crust and big on flavor - great cheeses, meats, creative flavor combinations, perfectly cooked. Everything was great and the take-out experience took less than 15 mins after ordering in person. We'll be back... SOON!!

This time around the meal was just average. I got very excited by the description of the meal on the menu and the last time I came it was amazing. This time the taste did not meet my expectations. Everything just seemed very plain and salt was the main flavor I noticed. I think the cocktail was my favorite and best drink I've had in a while. :) the price was also a lot for the quantity AND quality.

Great little spot with an open clear glass view of the street. Nice assortment of great cocktails. Plus they have kombucha. Bone broth was excellent- I had two. Perfect for a sore throat. Fresh baked bread. A lot of vegetarian options so if that’s your thing, this place is for you.

Best bone broth I have ever had. I skipped dessert and had a second cup! The restaurant is mostly gluten free which is great for celiacs. The staff were friendly and described the food in a way I haven't heard before, which I really enjoyed. The Korean fried chicken was lovely. The chicken was crispy and the meat was really high quality and juicy. Defs coming back for all the broth and fried chicken.

Cute atmosphere and good food presentation. The food was decently expensive and left us hungry after. The brunch was overall good, but the potatoes were just a little too thick to eat with just ketchup. They were out of chicken, tonic water and steak sauce. The menu was a little misleading as it didn’t inform us that Sunday doesn’t have lunch, only brunch (which limits the options). The steak was cooked well, as were the scrambled eggs. As you can see in my last photo, the bathroom left a lot to be desired.

Such a great little gem in Fremont. Being there a few times and always happy with the foods and services. I especially love Eve’s hot bowl with all the ancient grains and lots of veggies. The decorations and vibes are cozy and very chic. Love this place!

Interesting bar and cafe with organic food. Service was friendly but food took a while. Flavors are new and interesting. I think the dishes are good but my eggs were a bit runny and the pastrami was tough making it hard to eat since it wouldn't stay together. I came away with a mediocre experience but It wasn't terrible so maybe it was just an off day or time. Also for the hefty price i expected a bit better.

Inviting atmosphere, comfortable setting. Clean healthy food. They have house shrub. I had ginger and it was pretty good. Roasted broccolini was a bit salty for my taste. Very creative menu by mixing different cultures. The service was a slow side. We had a lot to catch up, so it was ok this time. The dessert was tasty! We shared a coconut ice cream sundae with berries. This is a great place for adults but not so for little kids. Brunch maybe ok for kids. There is no parking dedicated for the restaurant. Street parking can be a nightmare at Fremont.

Very delicious pizza, can get it by the slice or whole pie. Love it

I tried the classic cheese and the white pie, i LOVED them. I live almost 4 hours away and will be coming to this specific joint when I’m in town next! Great tasting ingredients, nice undercarriage with a great crunch. Where ever i travel i grab pizza! I keep it simple, classic cheese. You can get a good idea of a pizza joint based off their classic cheese, if they cant turn out a good cheese pie…it sets the tone for the rest of the pizzas!

Local pizza place. The atmosphere is reminiscent of east-coast local pizza places. The staff was friendly and chill. Don't expect much seating, though, as this isn't a full on dine-in restaurant. Food itself is good. Definitely on the upper end of Seattle pizza I've had so far. It also helps that it's the only place i can find so far that has good Buffalo chicken pizza in the nearby area.

Great place to pop into for a hot slice. They have a pretty good amount of by the slice options most days, and they also have a square thick crust option or two also. The slices are thin, and have crisp bottoms. The people who work there are friendly and fast.

I bought two slices, one Hawaiian slice one Meat lover square! Ate the Hawaiian while driving, got about halfway through the square, and felt something rubbery. I looked down and had a rubber glove baked into the middle of the pizza 🍕. Stopped back by and asked to speak to the manager. The man working the counter said that she was not in. I showed him the glove hanging out of the pizza he said it wasn't on purpose and he didn't have time to deal with me at the moment!! This is the most disgusting thing that has ever happened to me! I hope the Health department shuts them down!

Pizza was good. The thick Sicilian slice was really good and hard to find. The location is a cramped hole in the wall with some sketchy folk roaming around so keep that in mind. Also, only a few seats, best to grab and go.

All around great pizza by the slice. Classics and originals day to day. Worth a try.

Whole experience is excellent and outstanding! Whipped butter with sea salt elevated the flavor of bread. The staff who take care of us is Lam. He is absolutely sweet, kind, and professional person! He is care everyone he serves and treats us as his friend. I would definitely recommend Metropolitan. Metropolitan is definitely the best steakhouse in Seattle!

Stopped by on a Wednesday upon opening at 1100am for lunch. Overall, although quite pricey, the service and food were both excellent. The 8 oz butcher Wagyu steak with shoestring fries was perfectly cooked medium-rare with a nice smokey flavor with fries that were crispy and tasty. The Chophouse Meatloaf was also excellent, tender and tasty served with tasty asparagus and delicious mashed potatoes. We shared a burnt cream for desert which was delicious and also perfectly cooked. Fortunately, our server brought to our attention the 20% service charge automatically included on the bill; however, we did elect to add an additional $10 tip which goes to the server alone. Although quite pricey, especially with the automatic 20% service charge, we will be back because the service and food were both excellent!

This restaurant is incredible. Their whole setup makes you feel as in a banquet hall. Everything is perfectly tidy and clean. Every single employee strives to make you feel welcomed and comfortable. Servers know their trade; they explain the menu as if they were the chefs, and offer perfect wine pairings for the menu. Thanks, Bruno, awesome service! Drinks are fantastic, great bartending. Wines pairings are perfectly executed, great servers. And the steaks are simply out of this world! Metropolitan Grill goes beyond being a restaurant, it is an experience.

Came here to try their happy hour and it is amazing! Each item was made with such care and they had a stellar deal on drinks! Their old fashion was one of the better ones ive had in the city! My fiancee had the mule and said it was great!

The best steakhouse in Seattle for real! I’ve already been here four times — for lunch, dinner, and happy hour — and it never disappoints. The ribeye is amazing, and I love their mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. My only wish is that they’d open indoor seating for lunch instead of just the bar area.

Parking: valet available $15 Entrance: valet employee and doorman both on their phones and ended up opening the door upon exit. Host: quick check in and seated immediately with no wait Service: absolutely outstanding! If you care more about service than flavors this is the place to go! Our waitress, busser, and what I assumed was a manager were all amazing. Checked in and wished us a Happy Anniversary and waitress was very attentive to my gluten free preferences. Food: multiple non alcoholic drink options that were delicious. Clam chowder was good and creamy with a decent amount of clams! I got the filet mignon and jt was cooked well but the flavor was missing. My partner got the snow wagyu ($130 for 4oz) and he said he wouldn’t order it again - flavorless and not cooked to perfection. The baked potato was massive and delicious but a little too soft/creamy with the cheese and sour cream. Needed a flavor or crunch balance. Mac n cheese was good but also minimal flavor. The steak fries were amazing! Perfect crisp and flavor! I put the grilled whole garlic on the baked potato! Brussel sprouts were also perfect! Great crispness and bacon flavor. The gluten free molten lava cake was delicious and couldn’t tell it was gluten free and the vanilla ice cream was the best I’ve ever had! (From Olympic mountain creamery). Overall, if you want to be waited on hand and foot and have a darker, calmly lit dinner with family or a significant other but flavor isn’t your priority, this is the place to go.

Swanky spot for steak! The lobster bisque was my fave but everything else was wonderful, too. Be sure to check out the wall of fame with pics of celebs who have also visited. Fine dining and exquisite service at its finest! Bruno took great care of us and shared his unbridled enthusiasm for all things meat/marbling. Definitely recommend!

You’ll need a reservation here — I recommend booking through the Resy app to get seated faster without waiting. I had the omakase course, and it felt very authentic Japanese. The chef is super friendly and genuinely Japanese, which made the experience even better. The service was a bit slow between courses, but overall, it was a nice dining experience in Seattle. Some of the fish were excellent (especially the Hokkaido uni!), though not every piece stood out. I recommended go to Happy Hour time.

We were only in town for a very short time and staying in the area. We had walked past several times and noted that it seemed like a nice spot to dine, but had been taking in all of the fun eateries by the pier. The last evening in town, our friend in the area was able to meet for dinner and booked us a table. I am not an expert, but I'm not a newbie either, just a person who enjoys good food. Let's just say that this was a treat and an excellent way to end our trip. Each course was delicious and I liked that our waitress would come and explain how to eat each set for the best taste (with soy sauce, without, etc) We left feeling satisfied in both the quality and amount of food and service.

Best sushi I have had in the USA. The taste, the presentation and variety of fish was incredible. We did omakase for 4 people. Getting reservation was tricky plan way in advance, especially for a bigger group as they only have 8 spots at the counter. Our chefs were very entertaining and knowledgeable. I want to come back and try their regular course because it also looked very good. Highly recommended this place.

An incredible experience, every bite was delicious and the service was impeccable. The waitress noticed I was left handed and adjusted my plate to sample everything left to right instead. I appreciated the attention to detail and the salmon 4 ways was my favourite.

Shiro’s was too good!! We sat at the sushi counter and got the Chef’s Omakase Dinner. The staff was attentive, the sushi chefs were knowledgeable and candid, and each bite of nigiri was phenomenal. Our favorite was the Kama-toro, mouthwatering fatty tuna. Will definitely be back!

Tried their Chef’s Choice Sushi Course and was delightfully impressed. All the pieces were well prepared and presented. Delicious. Staff was attentive and atmosphere was nice.

Fantastic dining experience. We went with the chef’s choice sushi course, 19 pieces of nigiri over the course of 5 courses for $85. Their omakase at the bar seemed similar but more interaction with the chefs for $185. The first three courses were our favorite. Our server was also knowledgeable and engaging. They were also able to switch out a fish my partner was allergic to! Tiramisu was surprisingly amazing! Can’t wait to be back

Amazing food and service. Note some of the dishes had dairy modifications for our dietary preferences. Portions are a bit smaller so plan accordingly. Great spot!

We came here for a business meeting. The location was very accommodating to our needs and gave us an amazing seat our on the private patio. All of the food had amazing flavor and was seasoned very well. Drinks were all on point and we had at least one server and two bussers helping us with our plates. Overall I would take my partner here for a nice date night. The food was on point and the atmosphere was very laid back.

I like the kind of restaurant where the food is good and the atmosphere is casual. This is that kind of restaurant. We ordered the bread, clams, cauliflower, Bloody Mary oyster shooter, Vesuvio pasta, and Whole Grecian Branzino. Honestly everything was DELICIOUS. Surprisingly, the pasta was the Star (a unique mix of flavors that worked so well). Nothing was overly heavy, everything was healthful. Cocktails and wine also excellent. For dessert we ordered the key lime pie and apple beignets….yum!! P.s. thank you *Caressa* for the excellent service!!

Delicious seafood, but expensive! The smoked trout salad is excellent. We were a little disappointed with the Fijian tombo tartare—it's not bad, just lacking a little something to take it over the top (maybe just some more salt?). For mains, the branzino is essential. The seafood stew is also really good. And the apple beignets are certainly decadent! Great to split with a few folks. Just be ready for a steep bill!

Astoundingly mediocre. I'm not sure how this place has such high reviews when there are countless other fresh seafood places out there. The oysters were just ok, no one bothered telling us what kind they were. The tuna tartare was bland. Most of their dishes were underwhelming and lacked presentation. The final nail in the coffin for me was the mandatory 23% "service charge" when the service wasn't all that great. I have experienced more enthusiasm from servers at Waffle House. I support restaurant workers making a liveable wage but they really need to figure out how to incentivize doing your job well at the same time. Just a tip for anyone visiting Seattle and wanting to experience some quality seafood & service-- I would skip this place and go to Elliotts, Taylors, or Dukes.

Cute spot for a date with flavorful seafood-forward dishes. Lost a star primarily because it’s too expensive. It’s very nice and fun, but it’s too casual a vibe for the prices, and the portions aren’t large enough nor the food unique enough to justify how expensive it is. We mostly ordered off the happy hour menu, and it still added up too high. $18 cocktails on the main menu are rich, for example. And $3 oysters are the discounted happy hour rate, when they’re usually $5! Each! Also, there’s a 23% automatic gratuity that started in June 2025, which is pretax, so it’s effectively 25% after the 10% sales tax rate. On top of Seattle’s tipped workers making full $20+ minimum wage. However, the experience was really fun. The oysters were absolutely to die for. Top 5 for me easily. Buttery and briney and perfect sized all at the same time. From the Puget Sound. Usually I’d be upset no cocktail sauce or horseradish were provided, but the mignonette and lemon were actually perfect here. The clams in broth were well cooked, but they needed one more piece of bread at least. The fried calamari was definitely the most interesting. Instead of feeling deep fried, it was a thin layer of tiny seedy batter. It actually let the high quality squid shine. So good. The hamachi crudo was as you’d expect anywhere else it’s served. Solid. The seafood paella was good, and they took the chorizo out for us. I wish there was more rice (it’s cheap! Give us a little more substance!), and I wish they’d crisped the rice at the bottom as it’s traditionally done. The spicy margs and white lotus cocktails were both fun, good size, strong without being too liquor-dominated in flavor. Just a bit pricy ($12 happy hour and $18, respectively). Overall, I’d consider returning, but the prices are just a bit too high. I wish it were a little fancier if so. Or larger portions. Or maybe an 18% automatic gratuity if you’re gonna do it at all.

The food was delicious. I ordered fresh oysters and the lamb ragout. The espresso martini they make here the super tasty. The foam on top is such a smooth texture. 👌🏽 The wagyu short ribs are very tender and cooked perfectly. The waiter took too long to come take my order before happy hour ended, so I flagged down (nicely) a super sweet waitress, and she took over no problem and got everything we needed before the happy hour ended. But overall, the service was attentive and friendly. Atmosphere, I like the set up, it's an open floor plan with a good seating arrangement. And the mood lighting works well for a date night, birthday gathering, or just a company dinner. Update: I unknowingly ordered the same items again for my second time visiting Rock Creek. I did order an additional oysters shooter, the Bloody Vodka. It was good. I wish I ordered the oysters starter and shooter together. But I know for next time. The swordfish dish was recommended by my friend, though! & enjoyed the spicy margarita shooter as well. I also order the Burrata & tomato, it's definitely different than others I've tried before. It's good but something that I won't be ordering again. The green olives and the orange sauce didn't go very well for me personally. But I like being adventurous and trying new dishes here so no regrets.

Great dining option for vegans, vegetarians, and the plant based curious! Been to Cafe Flora a couple of times on different occasions when in Seattle visiting. They have a TON of menu items that spoil vegans with items not always found at other restaurants. I’ve been consistently happy with my meals and never leaving hungry. I’ve had a leek risotto with a side salad. This was probably the favorite item I’ve ever ordered from Cafe Flora. Tons of flavor, good texture, and super creamy. I ordered a cocktail once and wasn’t super happy with it. It was way too much sugar and left with a headache. I’ve also found that although the restaurant is pretty clean sometimes the menus are dirty and my table this last trip was sticky. I get it, this is a pretty high volume restaurant at times, but things could be wiped down a little better. If you’re in town visiting or a local that just hasn’t been brave enough or had the time to give this place a chance I’d highly recommend it.

Came here on a Sunday for brunch with a friend (about 10:30) and the wait was 30 minutes or so. I gave this place 3 stars because of the disappointment in our experience. I had no expectations and I was still let down. We ordered the pumpkin spice cinnamon roll and it lacked the pumpkin flavor, but it was still really good for a cinnamon roll. I’d also recommend it being served with the knife on the side, it was stabbed through the center like it was murdered before serving and while we did visit near Halloween time, nothing about this dish necessitated a knife sticking straight up into it (also bad for pics) We ordered the mochi beignets and those were disappointingly dense. I was hoping it was pillowy and chewy but the batter tasted like it still had unmixed flour and it came out very hard and didn’t pair well with the sauce. We ordered a pear tartine (not pictured) that also wasn’t as good as we hoped. The pear could have been cooked longer to get softer, it was served on a sourdough slice which we didn’t expect though could be errr on our part not reading the description, but what got us was that the hazelnuts were not good. They tasted like they had been sitting around long enough for the oils in the nuts to spoil and go rancid, not to mention it was still raw and not toasted which could have disguised that taste a little better, not that I would have preferred that. The one thing that I did enjoy at Cafe Flora was the smoked maple latte. The smell was incredible and tasted amazing with oat milk sub. Ambience and service were great but food was a huge miss for us this visit 😕

Went there on a relaxing Friday evening and was really impressed by the atmosphere and the vibe. When it came to food the menu felt very limited. So we decided to order their speciality coffee burnt maple latte. We liked the hot version better than iced (was too sweet). We also ordered coconut cake (dry, and the filling was mostly just sugar, extremely disappointed considering it was for $14 and I couldn’t eat even half of it). The pear almond clafoutis was nice but again not worth the price. Overall quite dissatisfied with the whole food experience.

Cafe Flora is a beautiful vegetarian spot with a warm, inviting ambiance. I ordered the Rancho Colorado Scramble with potatoes and it was delicious — hearty, flavorful, and really satisfying. Perfect place for a cozy brunch or relaxed meal, even if you’re not vegetarian. Highly recommend for the great vibes and tasty food! 🥗🌿🍽️

The food here wasn’t anything to write home about, but I do appreciate how it’s all vegetarian and I like how many fresh herbs and veggies they incorporate into the dishes. I also thought the yam fries were amazing. I loved the outdoor seating area and our server was great and provided us with good drink/portion recommendations. I don’t know if I’ll come back, for dinner but I’m not mad I went!

Went for brunch. Had a 15 min wait before getting seated. The food was really good overall. The rancho Colorado scramble with potatoes was pretty good. The frittata with cheesy grits was really tasty as well. Got the biscuits and gravy and waffle for the table, and both were good esp the waffle. Got the honeydew cilantro drink which was ok. Overall, pretty good.

Came for the Halloween Afternoon Tea experience with a friend and it was a treat! Loved the selection of goodies and the diversity in flavor of the three tiers. This experience gets booked out real fast (we tried last year but it was sold out) so reserve early! 🫖🎃🍭

We always make a point to stop at Marination Ma Kai whenever we visit friends in Seattle. It’s the perfect spot if you’re out walking your dog or just want a casual bite with a view. The cocktail window makes grabbing a quick drink easy, the food comes out fast, and the outdoor seating usually doesn’t have too long of a wait. The waterfront views alone are worth five stars, but paired with the food and drinks, the experience is even better. No complaints at all… and the lychee margarita is an absolute must try!

The food was excellent!! I had the fish sandwich and my brother had the pork katsu sandwich…very very good. The fries are not good, they are the fresh ones like in n out, so if you like those then I guess you will like these. Mac salad was very very very good and we also had a malasada. The malasada was not great, I would skip it. The views are maybe the best of the Seattle skyline you will get…there is also a water ferry dock that will take you to downtown I believe. There is also a place to rent kayaks and paddle boards.

Firstly, the views alone from this restaurant are breathtaking. The service is fast and friendly. The food tasted just like I had remembered from living on Oahu as a child. It was the perfect walk down memory lane.

Went here after a long run at Alki Beach and was really satisfied with the food! Ordered the breakfast tacos and it tasted great and had lots of complex flavors. This place has a large selection of Hawaiian dishes and has a good atmosphere.

Great tacos, really enjoyed the variety and flavor. Wonderful outdoor patio and spectacular view of the Seattle skyline. One of the best places to enjoy the sunset while eating dinner. Very reasonably priced and ample parking.

Tasty Hawaiian food right on Alki Beach. They have a big patio seating area, plus plenty of indoor seating. The kimchi fried rice is tasty and satisfying, though I'd prefer a little more actual kimchi. The tocino (Hawaiian bacon) is really good, probably the best thing I tried. The mac salad is fine but nothing special. For dessert, the malasada is super tasty, and make sure you get it with filling. When I visited, they also had mini coconut loaves on special and they reminded me a lot of the sweet loaves I'd find all over when visiting Hawaii. And I'd highly recommend the shave ice, which is flavored with house-made syrups. Even a regular is plenty big enough to share with a friend. Pro tip: Skip the li hing mui powder—it overpowers the already delicate shave ice flavors—but definitely add some ice cream.

I hardly leave bad reviews, but this warrants one. My friend got 2 tacos with pork and "signature slaw." The "slaw" was just whatever came out of the shredded cabbage mix bag from the grocery store...NO SAUCE just dry cabbage. The pork was dry, chewy, and flavorless, and the tacos ALSO had that dry cabbage mix on top. It was so sad. My fries were overcooked. The fish wasn't bad. The only real winner was the Kimchi tartar sauce, which was delicious. The views are great, but man, I was so disappointed with the food.

This has been our go-to Indian restaurant. The food is always good, super flavorful and such a huge selection of items. Love how flexible it can be too with picking the proteins for the dishes. Service is always fast and friendly and I always appreciate how they bring out a little appetizer and a little dessert complimentary. Our regular dishes: saag, garlic naan, shimla paneer, mango curry, and start off with the vegetarian delight appetizer sampler. Their iced chai is so delicious and you get free refills. While the prices may seem a little high, the flavor is great and rice is included with your entrees.

Service was pretty good and the food was solid overall. The outdoor seating with all the lights is what really makes this place special; it’s such a nice vibe. The shahi korma paneer was delicious, and the garlic naan was great too. The butter chicken was a bit basic, but my vegetarian friend really enjoyed her chana masala. The mango lassi was also very good. Parking can be tricky since there’s a small lot, but street parking is usually easier. Prices are fairly reasonable for the quality. Overall, I’d definitely come back again.

We had butter chicken and a chicken curry dish and naan and an Indian beer Katie Patang. The service was incredible. The naan is fresh and delicious. The rice was so fluffy and made perfectly. Free appetiser and cheesecake.

Originally from Chicago, we have a lot of good options compared to Seattle. This was the first Desi restaurant I tried, and my first impression is that it’s way too expensive. Secondly, the portion size is about half of what it should be. On the other side, the food tastes like home — not the best, but decent enough. Not everything is Halal.

Simply amazing! Some of the best authentic Indian food I have ever had and a nice atmosphere. I highly recommend this place.

I came to this place back in 2015 and it's the place I wanted to come back to in 2025. Hands down one of my favorite restaurants in general let alone in Seattle. The food is incredible and the service is pretty good giving the time of day. If you are looking at this place and thinking about how much you have in the wallet you are looking to spend between 20 -40 bucks and the portions are pretty hefty. The seating area was pretty warm so don't worry about the sweater inside. Just my opinion but the Mango curry chicken is the best dish on the menu. 10/10.

This was hands-down some of the best food I’ve had in recent memory. The tandoori chicken tikka was absolutely divine, while my partner got the paneer shahi, which was incredible. Everything was generously portioned! I can’t stop thinking about this place. 10/10 would recommend!!!

They should put this place next to the word eclectic in the dictionary! The food options spam the world and your taste buds will most likely be taken on a royal procession. The fries were exceptionally crisp and smothered in tangy sauce with sambal to dip into. I have never had such decadent fries at a brunch spot. I got the Korean noodle dish and it is served cold. The candied lotus roots were a delight to crunch into. The shakshuka was good, but a little too much on the tangy side for me. Vegetarians have a few options here but meat eaters will have a field day.

All servers were nice and all food was really good! I wasn’t expecting it to be as good from the names or the pictures I saw online but they are all worth the try! The price is definitely on the high end so up to your discretion

The food here is unforgettable—bold flavors that feel like eating at your grandma’s house with all your cousins gathered around the table. The ribs were tender and rich, and the Ethiopian injera platter was tangy, playful, and perfect for sharing. Every dish carries a soulfulness that keeps me coming back. I truly wanted to give a five-star review, but I ran into a problem with the sangria. If you’re going to charge for a carafe, please give your guests the true value—not a carafe full of ice. On my last visit, it arrived so packed with ice that it only poured three glasses, compared to the generous carafe I enjoyed before. When I raised this, the server initially dismissed me in a way that made me feel like my integrity was being doubted, which was disappointing. To his credit, he did backtrack and apologize after I said I would just write a review. Still, if the carafe can’t consistently deliver value, it should be removed from the menu rather than charging guests the same as individual drinks. BTW-that is a picture of the first carafe from the week prior. My phone died before taking a picture of the iced carafe. That said, I still love this place. The flavors are powerful, comforting, and full of heart. When the service rises to match the excellence of the food, this restaurant shines as one of the best dining experiences anywhere.

We enjoyed the fried chicken wings tower! The brussel sprouts were nicely crispy and good with sauce. The pineapple cornbread was sadly really salty. We came on a holiday Sunday and there was only one chef working. Had to wait a lonnng time for any food. Will be back to try their chicken wings happy hour!

The war fries. That's all I have to say. SO GOOD. We also got the bunny stew (not actually rabbit), which was pretty good, but the war fries were the best. The drinks were really spendy and not super special for the price. All in all, I would definitely go back. There were tons of interesting options!

Novelty seekers come hither! We ordered six dishes and ate something from every corner of the world. Bold concept and the execution is great! The perfect dinner for someone itching to travel.

Michelle was FANTASTIC!!! She gave us fabulous recommendations on the menu, being Very conscious of my husband's allergies, and the food was INSANELY DELICIOUS!!! ***Shout out to the chefs!!!*** The chicken wings, as advertised through other reviews, Brought It!!!🤤🤤🤤 The Laphet Thoke Salad was fresh, crunchy, and savory!!! My Husband Loved his "French tacos" (not exactly either word) but super tasty!!! He had the "Espresso Martinez" and I had the Ay Chihuahua cocktail!!!💕💕💕 The atmosphere has this unusual homey vibe, and the Service was Very efficient!!!😊😊😊 Thanks everyone at Nue!!! T'was the perfect Brunch!!! I suggest if your service was fantastic, tip 25% or more, they Deserve it!!!

We were excited to visit The Whale Wins after hearing great things. The atmosphere was lovely, the service attentive, and the food clearly above average. That said, the pricing, portion sizes, and added 22% charge made the overall experience feel less satisfying. We shared a variety of dishes: Matiz sardines on sourdough toast, lettuces with lemon juice, Parisienne gnocchi, Hama Hama clams, Alaskan halibut, and zucchini bread. The standouts were the gnocchi, sardine toast, and zucchini bread. The gnocchi had a perfect sear and texture, and was beautifully presented. The zucchini bread was moist, flavorful, and not at all soggy. The sardines paired nicely with the excellent sourdough and fennel. The halibut was cooked to perfection, though the salsa morita felt a bit overpowering and the size just too small for $48. The clams were fine but unremarkable, and the lettuces, while tasty, didn’t justify the $23 price. While we enjoyed the meal (quality at least 4*), the high cost, small portions, and a significant added charge (would appreciate just increasing menu prices) left us feeling underwhelmed and still a little hungry, making it difficult to justify a return visit and ultimately falls short of a recommendation.

What a treat! The Whale is such a gem. The salmon pâté and butter lettuce salad were excellent starters, and the sardine toast is an absolute must. The roasted chicken was incredible and perfect for sharing with friends. We finished with a slice of their decadent zucchini bread—highly recommend. Pair it all with a glass of Muscadet and you’re in for a truly memorable experience.

I loved the ambience and decor of this spot on Stoneway. I popped in for brunch and picked up an egg sandwich with bacon and Rachel's Ginger Beer. The latter is standard if you've ever had it. The egg sandwich arrived piping hot but not hot enough for the cheese to melt. It is quite a big sandwich stuffed into tiny bread. It was falling apart on me when I grabbed it, so I cut it in half to make it easier to eat. It still basically exploded in my hands with the spicy mayo. The bacon had good taste and the mayo was good. Egg was standard and only reason why it lost stars and rating is just how messy and explosive it is. Personally I don't want a mess everywhere, but the taste was good. Price a bit high, but what isn't in Seattle. They do auto tip, take this how you will. I'd return to try their French/English style dinner and I do love the look of the space. 6/10⭐

To start, I have got to say that I had one of the best dining experiences at The Whale Wins. The entire serving staff went above and beyond what was needed or required to give a wonderful dining experience. They were able to answer any question, help with allergy and dietary restrictions, as well as suggestion great food. The food itself was great, as to expect from this restaurant. The shareable plates were all unique, fresh, and thoughtfully plated. My significant other tried the half chicken, and it was the best chicken she has ever had. I have no idea how they were able to cook the chicken so tender. I would recommend getting a reservation a few days out in advanced as it can get busy on the weekends.

Walked in for Brunch and was easily accommodated for two. Ordered the sardines toast, frittata and breakfast platter. All delicious and light. Not sure how this guy is doing it but all the food is cooked in an oven- even the eggs. There’s fresh Parmesan on the frittata and the sardine toast was light and not fishy at all. I thought I’d try it since sardines have a lot of calcium but I haven’t ate sardines in years and this place presented them lovely and tasty. Looked like a lot of people share the brunch items. The perfectly roasted tomatoes were delicious on the breakfast platter with the homemade red beans. The breakfast sandwich though didn’t have the cheese melted which is a pet peeve of mine so glad I didn’t order that but my meal was excellent and glad we decided to eat here instead of another overcrowded place across the street.

Delicious food and lovely service! Zucchini bread was warm and scrumptious. Fantastic granola.

We had the scallops, parisienne gnocchi, and olives. Great ambiance on the patio; staff were certainly knowledgeable on menu items. However the menu in its presentation and the comments made by staff felt pretentious. The warm and casual vibe of the restaurant was a confusing juxtaposition with the menu, too. We were told we couldn’t order a half chicken, because it is “usually for 4 people” and there were 2 of us. Quarter chickens are commonly given as a single meal portion pretty much anywhere so this was weird. We found that an odd comment, among a few others like it, and based on our experience we would not return. Bummer because they did have some good flavors. A weird and very Seattle service experience.

Considering that sushi in Seattle tends to graviate toward a higher price-point, the price and quality ratio here was quite reasonble. We ordered a course and all the dishes, i.e. oysters, Bara Chiraashi, Sashimi were very fresh. The staff here were quite attentive and provided great recommendations for the sake and food pairing - it was quite helpful that the sake noted dry and sweet levels on the menu. I am looking forward to visiting this restaurant again in the future - though this is not a place to visit super frequently as it leans toward the higher end sushi. Overall, this place is great for special occasions and in seasons to splurge.

Finally got a chance to visit one of the restaurants that had been on my list for a while, Sushi Kappo Tamura! It is located in Eastlake side of Seattle right under I-5. Unfortunately, there’s no water view from any of the tables. I also noticed that one of my long-time favorite spots, Eastlake Grill, has been torn down, which made me a bit sad. When I visited, there was road construction around the restaurant, which made parking more of a hassle. Parking itself is a bit tricky. The restaurant owns a few spots in the lot next door, but it’s not obvious how to get there. The easiest way to find it is by Googling this address: 3105 Harvard Avenue East, Seattle. That will take you straight to the parking lot. I am sharing this because I had to call in advance to ask about parking information for myself. Making a reservation requires providing a credit card, and they charge $25 per person for a no-show. I wasn’t comfortable giving my card number over the phone, but they told me I could book through OpenTable instead, which felt more secure. We were seated right away since we had a reservation. There was only one server and one manager working during Saturday lunch. Both were friendly, but our server seemed pretty disengaged. We had to ask for water refills and the check multiple times, and he kept forgetting the things we asked for. It felt like he was just going through the motions without paying attention to the tables. Before visiting, I checked their menu online and was interested in the 3-course meal for $60 under the combination section, but it was not available for lunch. So we each ordered a sushi combo and shared the Hamtastic Roll from the specials. The sushi combo comes with miso soup, 7 pieces of nigiris, and your choice of roll - salmon, spicy tuna, or yellowtail. I picked salmon, and my friend went with spicy tuna so we could try a bit of everything. It took quite a while for the food to come out, which surprised me given the small size of the restaurant and the number of kitchen staff I saw. The miso soup was excellent, and the sushi combo was decent. The Hamtastic roll was also fine, but considering the higher prices, I was not sure the quality matched the cost. The restaurant is small, so it’s not ideal for group gatherings. I had pretty high expectations since it’s listed as a $$$$ restaurant, but overall the food was good, not great, especially for the price point. What bothered me more was that the staff seemed to be rushing customers to leave, which felt inappropriate for a fine-dining sushi place. I ended up giving it 3 stars for two main reasons: 1. Mandatory 20% “living wage” charge. Their menu stated that "We would like to inform our guests that in place of gratuity a 20% living wage charge is included in the total (excludes take out). The house retains 100% of these charges to help fund higher wages and benefits to all staff. Additional gratuity is not expected." I understand the intention, but our server didn’t seem to care about providing good service, not just to us, but to other tables, too. He often forgot what customers asked for and never checked in. I am certainly happy to tip a hardworking and cheerful server, but when a tip is guaranteed, there is little motivation to go above and beyond, and that showed. 2. Sales tax applied on top of the 20% service charge. In my view, the sales tax should be calculated before the service charge, not after. Some restaurants do this to squeeze out a bit more from customers, and I found that disappointing. Overall, Sushi Kappo Tamura is an okay restaurant, but considering the price, location, parking hassle, and service experience, I’m not sure it’s worth a return visit. I think there are plenty of other Japanese restaurants in the Seattle area that offer better value and service.

Went here to celebrate my partner’s birthday. I think it’ll be a “I’m glad I tried” place - wouldn’t necessarily go out of my way to go back, but the ambiance, service, and the food were good. I agree with some of the other reviews saying it’s a little overpriced - I’m not sure what makes it stand out at the price point from the abundance of other sushi places in Seattle. Portions were good and we left feeling full.

By far one the best dining experiences I've ever had. The service was top notch but the food was so good, I literally started crying. I cannot recommend this place enough. I live in Milwaukee and I almost want to move to Seattle just for this restaurant!

This was the best dining experience I’ve had all year! Sushi Kappo Tamura was recommended to me by many and for good reason. The omakase bar seating experience was the perfect balance of elevated and approachable. Every bite was really creative (favorites were chu-toro, shigokus, and sea bass) and the staff was fun to talk to. Thanks for the incredible meal with special touches for a birthday celebration. We’ll be back!

Black miso cod entree was fantastic, will be coming back again for sure! The mochi dessert was incredible. Just the right amount of sweetness. We also got the black dragon roll which wasn't my favorite (but my partner loved it).

We did the tasting menu, which had both raw and cooked dishes (and even dessert!!). Everything was delectable. The ambiance was really nice as well :)

I had high hopes before visiting, but it turned out to be more of a great spot for students. The lunch menu was an absolute steal at just $12.50, and the rest of the menu was very reasonably priced. However, I wasn’t entirely convinced about the quality of the sushi. There was also too much rice compared to the sushi itself. Overall, it’s a good option for a quick and affordable lunch.

The food and price are the star of the show here. Incredibly reasonably priced, very fresh sushi, quick service. Lots of take out but we sat (order at counter and they server you). Even the hot green tea was great, large super hot carafe. Limited street parking.

Amazing portions and good quality fish, my favorite place for nigiri and sushi in Seattle. Their rolls are great as well, and they have generous portions of fish. I couldn’t ask for anything better. All their dishes are amazingly priced. Attached are pictures of their chirashi bowl as well as nigiri. Furthermore, customer service is fantastic at this location. They are happy to address any mixups with the order.

So good! Will definitely be back. Authentic sushi and really fresh. Not the place if you’re looking for the typical “Americanized sushi rolls”

First off, Musashi’s is great. The reason I am being critical is… COMPARATIVELY this location is NOT AS GOOD as the Redmond and Lynnwood location. I know there are many loyal fans of this spot, as I believe it was the original, however I have been tons of times to the other spots mentioned, and I had a better experience overall with their food. Unfortunately after ordering out from this location, I received rolls different from what I ordered, and the quality of the rice was mediocre, along with presentation/quality of fish.

Everything was fantastic! Clearly they put a lot of heart into the food. I genuinely have no complaints at all. I highly recommend coming here!

I haven’t tried their food, so I can’t comment on that. However, I can say that their customer service is terrible. I went there to pick up food for a delivery company, and the lady at the counter was rude and unhelpful. When I asked her if that was all the food for the order, she said, “I don’t know.” How can you get an order together and not know if it’s complete? She also asked me to leave because she needed to lock the door. It was 11:18 am, and the place opens at 11:30, but I was there to pick up food for a customer! I thanked her and hoped she had a nice day when I left, but she didn’t say anything. In general, the customer service was very bad. I wouldn’t go back as a customer. When I arrived at the location where I was supposed to drop off the catering order, I noticed that the customer was also dissatisfied with the way the food was set up and that the food labels were missing. Here are some pictures of the food set up for delivery.

I was really excited to try Taco Chukis, but unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to my expectations. The meat in both tacos I tried was slightly overcooked, which impacted the flavor and texture. The standout was definitely their house taco—it had more flavor and was a lot more enjoyable than the second option I ordered. I also tried their Jamaica, which was extremely sweet. I had to dilute it with water to make it more drinkable. On the plus side, the service was solid, and the staff was friendly and attentive.

🌮 The meat was overcooked, dry, and the seasoning was off, which was more tangy than tasty. ☹️ The dining environment was quite disappointing: it was dark, and both the table and floor felt greasy. Worst of all, the cup I was given wasn’t properly cleaned, which really ruined the overall experience. Sadly, I won't be coming back anytime soon.

Honestly one of the best tacos I ever had! I got the House Special and was delicious. The staff was friendly and the salsa and guacamole had a great kick to it and was only 23 cents for a side of sauce. Also got the Quesadilla that tasted more traditional and amazing mini burritos. All in all for 2 tacos, 6 sauces, quesadilla, and 2 mini burritos it was 25 dollars. Def will be returning!

Wow. I'm visiting from Florida and WISH I had a place like this at home. Flavors and taste were exactly what I hoped for and envision with tacos. Although I highly recommend the Carne Asada quesadilla. Chefs kiss of flavor, size and spice and overall taste. Will definitely eat here again!

For 23 dollars, I had so much food and my mind blown. The asada quesadilla is the best thing I’ve tasted in a long long time. You have to come here! Just go up the stairs when you reach the address!
