“I went for the first time. I had a good experience. Staff was lovely and the food was alright. My only complaint would be that my bottom burger bun got soggy very quickly so it was falling apart when I was trying to eat it. Otherwise food was alright. Sweet potato fries were good, tasted like they come frozen not fresh. But still ate them...lol.“
“I really like the "firestarter" sandwich. It's a delicious spicy sandwich and I haven't had anything like it. I ate here for the first time a few weeks ago and for the second time yesterday and I can say I enthusiastically recommend it!“
“We walked around trying to find a breakfast with indoor seating, and after a few locations, we found the gem of Seattle! We were met with kindness, love, and treated like family! You know, the ones you really love to see and look forward to seeing! Those family members! We literally stayed because the hostess (one of owners daughters), was so inviting and welcoming! But let me tell you, the portions are amazing, the food is authentic Filipino with American Diner flare and the conversations Greg (The Owner) was just as fulfilling. Greg's story is one of triumph, soro, and rebirth! If you get a chance to speak with him, be prepared to be enlightened and ready to pay it forward! The Silog Combo is a must try! Greg and his family are absolutely amazing, and we look forward to returning!“
“We had a really nice time here after touring cherry blossoms at UW. Great service pleasant setting and great food Special shout out to servers Ben and Nick who were super welcoming, very friendly and were a big part of making this a nice experience.“
“My favorite brunch place in Seattle. I absolutely LOVE their Dutch pancakes, they are perfect. My husband loves their classic breakfast plate and says it's simple but perfect. And we're both fiends for their special house made ketchup... so much so that I asked if I could have a side to take home.. haha. Also love their service, the waitresses are super warm and nice which elevated the experience. I would come here every week if I could.“
“For my boyfriend’s birthday, I took him to get a Tomahawk steak at Flint Creek. We were both incredibly blown away by the quality of the food and the top tier service given to us by Nathan, our server. The tomahawk was sooo good, it had a delightful spice crust on the outside and was cooked to perfection. We also both swooned over the prosciutto & plum dish (absolutely god tier). Our table service was unmatched— Nathan made sure that we were taken care of every single step of the way and we left feeling full and satisfied. Thank you Nathan & the team at Flint Creek!!“
“We came here randomly to celebrate NYE 2024 before heading to a rooftop party to watch the Space Needle NYE show. No reservations are needed, so this place came in clutch. We're so glad we came here! The owners were there and provided NYE hats and party beads, and the whole bar had a champagne toast to celebrate the ball drop in NYC. It was such a nice time, and the owners were very kind in providing NYE gear and champagne for everyone! We had yet to learn before coming here how much of a community vibe you get with this place. We ordered: -The Crab Nachos were super filling and tasty. I'm so glad we got these! They were the perfect final meal to end 2023. I will definitely be back for these. -The Painted Hills Beef Burger was delicious and filling. -While I Was Away - Refreshing and light, perfect pre-dinner drink -Devil's Margarita--This one was pretty strong. I highly recommend it. The flavor mix was interesting. I noticed this was a big hit. There were several tables that got this one. -Some beers, I need to remember which ones, but my partner says they were good! Overall will be back, the prices, the community vibe, and how much you can tell the owners care about their patrons shows. This place tends to be busy with regulars for a reason!“
“This place is absolutely adorable and has the best vibe! The decor makes you feel like you’re in a safe place, and the service backs that feeling up. The food is fantastic too! Highly recommend attending Drag Brunch on Sunday, the queens are insanely talented and the atmosphere is electric! JT behind the bar is amazing, and the drinks are delicious and creative! Highly recommend the Buzz Bunny. Food-wise, Chicken and Beignets gives a wonderful twist on the classic chicken and waffles, complete with soft serve! You read that correctly. You really can’t go wrong with a visit to Kamp Social House, where you’ll be treated to an amazing meal by gorgeous and considerate humans!“

“My 5th trip to Vons. The wings are damn good, as advertised - service is tip top - excellent catter level vibe and ambience. The Bodi is perfectly cold and delicious. The smash burger is a formidable opponent. I look forward to exploring more of the menu.“
“Kenny was our server and he was awesome. The food was fantastic and we got so much for the price (the biscuits and gravy are to die for). Kenny seemed to be the only server at the time (around 12:45-1:00pm) and was working all the tables calmly and efficiently. He was personable when we talked and was extremely polite.I am a server myself, so I tend to be pretty judgy about the service I get when I’m out, but I was genuinely impressed and pleased with my experience. We are definitely coming back to this cafe!“
“Very charming neighborhood restaurant in Cap Hill. Food was great and ambiance 10/10. However, our server wasn’t very friendly /borderline rude which we looked past. I was also a bit disappointed in the quality of their craft cocktails featured for Cocktail week.“
“If you appreciate authenticity and being at the top of your game, in terms of food, drinks and staff, Life on Mars is for you. They are good people caring for their little corner of Capitol Hill, and damn that's a tough thing to do sometimes, yet still they persevere. So grateful this place exists.“
“Hands down the best restaurant in Seattle!Make the trip to the Green Lake neighborhood.The food is so well thought out and hyper local. The entire service staff exudes Michelin star knowledge.The wine team has curated one of the best by the glass programs/ bottle list in Seattle. Their attention to detail and sustainable practices is the scale of Nomad.Hands down the best dining experience in Seattle!“
“Parking is very easy on weekdays (except Friday), especially after 9 pm but it can get packed during weekends. Price came out to be around $100 for four drinks, it's on the pricier side but the presentation and concepts are good. We got the lawn boy, Shaballah, campfire in Georgia, and Snow White's bong. I'd recommend the first two for people who enjoy sweet drinks and the latter two for people who want something different. They have almost 5,000 labels in house so if you're a spirit enthusiast, this is the place for you. Great place to take a date after dinner but service can take a little long depending on how busy they are.“
“Took my fiance here with my mother for my fiance's birthday. It also happened to be Easter ?. The staff was still operating at top notch although other places were straight up closed. Glad we walked it.We ordered the seared octopus which was according to my mother who is an octopus fanatic some of the best she's ever had ??..., the scallops which were my favorite (5⭐)... and the spicy steam clams which my fiance adored (delicious green curry base). Over all amazing experiences for grabbing some cocktails and a small bite with friends or family. Come show this place some love so it can stick around ?“
“One of my friends suggested Single Shot for an intimate brunch, and even though we are from Tacoma and I was hesitant to drive all the way to Seattle just for a brunch spot, it was definitely worth it!Single Shot is tucked back in the neighborhoods near Capitol Hill where you wouldn’t even think such a modern and outstanding brunch spot would be! It was honestly hidden between older homes and apartments and would be easy to miss if you didn’t know what you were looking for. It’s a cozy restaurant inside and has nice outdoor seating as well. The decor is a modern take on vintage style, and being there feels both like stepping back in time but also living in the 2024 you only see in movies.The staff are all extremely friendly with customers as well as with each other. I was new, but I could tell based on watching staff and patrons interact that there are a lot of regulars.I was given a heads up that the food is large, so we decided to do family style dining, and it was truly large servings! I was shocked by how large a single pancake was!! Between the three of us, we still had leftovers! Everything is homemade and uses fresh ingredients too! Even the toast was impressive and toast is usually the leftover filler for small meals, but not here!I cannot wait to come back!“
“I have been here twice now and the food is great. I typically go for their BLT . They serve it with biscuits, poached eggs, collard greens , bacon, tomato jam, sweet chilies and mayo.My husband likes their fried chicken with biscuits and gravy. I really like their biscuits and I find myself going here when I miss wandering goose or the biscuit and bean. I really do wish they would serve mushroom gravy. Service is good.“
“Absolutely loved this place! From the ambiance to the staff and food! We ordered the steak which was cooked in front of us and it was delicious. We also had the cheeseburger and it was delicious as well. The fries were perfect, crisp and seasoned, with fresh grated cheese on top. The atmosphere especially made the dinner memorable.“
“What a lovely gem!Came here with mother and wife on a Saturday for lunch and were really impressed by the food.The fried oyster po boy was something out of this world! I never knew you could have such good po boy outside of Louisiana ?Wife ordered the lamb gnocchi which was also very delicious! ? We also ordered a warm beet salad and a cannoli which we liked as well.Their lunch menu is quite reasonable. And their proximity to Green Lake makes this place an ideal fueling station after your run or biking tour. ?“
“I’ve dined at the U-Village Joey’s & truly enjoyed their curry bowl, & wine. Although the Bellevue Joey’s no longer had the curry bowl on their menu, they had so many gluten/dairy free options to choose from. We were greeted with a glass of complimentary champagne. This was special, as we were celebrating my birthday. I had the Mercado chicken salad, (loved the lime peanut dressing). My friends enjoyed the ahi burger & Szechwan chicken lettuce wraps. We all tried the Szechwan wraps & loved them! I will definitely order them next time. Our waitress Veronica was amazing! She was attentive to my dietary needs & made lots of alternative suggestions based on their menu. My friends surprised me with Joey’s flourless chocolate cake with fresh raspberries & raspberry sauce & powdered sugar. It was delicious. Their whipping cream they brought on the side for my friends looked very good. Their menu prices seemed reasonable & they validated our parking. I would definitely dine at Joey’s in Bellevue again. I look forward to taking my family to dine their in the future.“
“The food is exquisite and Chef William is a gem. We can always count on a great meal and having a wonderful night out. We love Violet! We also love sitting at the bar and chatting it up with Kevin. If you want a fun night out, head to Violet! You won’t be disappointed!“
“I had a FABULOUS nonalcoholic cocktail, the name escapes me, but it was definitely the best NA I've ever had. The mouthfeel resembled real alcohol. Very impressive.My butternut squash soup was very flavorful, but for my tastes was a bit too thick.My date's cauliflower steak was not tender, but otherwise tasty. The management did not end up charging him for it, which was commendable.I would definitely return to try their steaks and more cocktails!“
“My team and I had the most wonderful dinner at the Whale Wins (and I felt like I ate like a winning whale.) From the moment we sat down and were greeted by the smiling faces of our servers to the last drop of wine at the end of the night, it was perfect. We all agreed that the food was some of the best we have had in years. Each of us had a favorite - mine was the black cod and the Matiz sardines on toast. The servers were attentive, super kind, and made sure we left happy, with a delicious slice of the zucchini bread with creme fraiche and sea salt.I look forward to going back and experiencing the rest of the menu!“
“this is one of the best spots to chill .. depending on what you're craving, they've got great food ... this has become the calmest place for me after work ... food for me: Shepard's pie poutine Olmstead Burger Housemade Meatloaf drink: adult coke (they use the best cherries)“
“My son took me out to celebrate my last day of chemo. We had the absolute BEST dinner. I definitely would put it in my top 5. My son and I agree, it was the best steak we ever had. We checked out the connected art studio/gallery bext door. Very good vibes here. One thing I will.menti9n though, is that the online menu doesn't necessarily match up.with what is offered. Our sides were different. We weren't disappointed at all. But if you are online, and hoping for a particular item, maybe call first to make sure. Highly recommend this place.“
“We went to Nicks’s for dinner Saturday night. Food, service, ambiance all great. You can tell they really care about doing things well. We had so much fun. And everyone was so nice. Highly recommend going here. We plan to go back many times.“
“Nell’s is by far a gem of the Northwest. Their food and service have always been amazing and we just found their quarantine take out is no different. It’s one of those all time favorites where you have fun just reading the menu and then are giddy waiting for your meal. A must try venue that we are grateful to have in Greenlake!“
“The 4 of us are visitors from FL and are at the one on Fremont in Seattle. We each had something different, beef stew, corn beef & cabage, chicken pot pie & the mashers thing.Everything was amazing. Our server was a young lady from Iowa and she was just the best. So friendly and helpful with suggestions and and was just amazing“
“The Guest House is a hidden gem in the Kenmore neighborhood! I have been there numerous times and the food and the service have always been superb. Tonight I had the halibut, and it was phenomenal. So light and refreshing . The amazing citrus pea sauce just screamed spring!“
“The tasting menu is the way to go! Perfect place to celebrate our first anniversary!The whole staff was so kind and knowledgeable. I asked the bartender to make me a mocktail that would fit the tasting menu and she completely nailed it! The food was all delicious and so experimental and fun! We plan to go back at least quarterly to see what else they come up with!“
“Went for Lady Chablis's Drag Show and it was sooooo much fun! Drinks were amazing, atmosphere is like cool circus bar. The patrons are super nice and fun.Wheelchair accessibility: There is stairs to the downstairs, not wheelchair accessible“
“I dined at Lark last night as a first time visitor to Seattle. The food was good. We ordered the bread service, hamachi crudo and the trotter cake to start. Lauren was our server and she guided us through the meal beautifully. I ordered the scallops and my friend ordered the bucatini. We both really enjoyed the dishes but for me, the star was dessert. We had the lemon parfait (which sounds so simple, it was very complex and not a traditional parfait) and the Oaxacan torte.I do want to give Lauren another special shout out because she made us feel so welcomed and offered incredible hospitality. As the AGM of a restaurant myself, she’s definitely a gem. She even took the time to write a list of places we should go and see, all of which we are experiencing today. I really want to tell her thanks for the incredible experience!“
“Good Impeccable Chicken Sandwich food truck. Bumped into them at a brewery in Snoqualmie and we ordered their chili crisp chicken (not spicy) and their traditional impeccable chicken sandwich. Your oder of sandwich comes with 1 side and a dip. We ordered their sweet potato tots and fries and it was delicious. Loved the chicken inside the sandwich - perfectly cooked and crunchy. Amazing. Overall loved the flavors in my chicken sandwich.“

“A really nice family run place with a friendly owner and staff. I had the gyro and it was excellent. It's a little pricey but I don't mind supporting any small family operation.Can't wait to try the rest of their menu!Wheelchair accessibility: Easy wheelchair access.“
“While the menu feels very comfortable, the food is anything but. As a party of three we ordered delicious cocktails and some starters. The calamari was the highlight of the trio, with the tartare coming in close behind. For entrees we favored the lamb, but the duck was great, the Mac and Cheese decadent, and it feels odd to say - but the brussel sprouts almost over shined everything. And don't pass on dessert! The torte was a perfect bite of chocolate everything; the brownie was melt-in-your-mouth perfect; and the carrot cake was like nothing I've ever had--it was like a bite of Fall. And if you have the restraint, they all made a wonderful breakfast the following morning.“
“Ray’s has always been my go-to dinner spot in the summer for the best outdoor patio in Seattle. The food is no longer what it used to be and the service is not great. The five stars are for the patio-if you are wanting some after dinner dessert and coffee or a drink, this is the place to go during summer.“
“This place is a hidden gem.The happy hour menu is dank and their disclaimers on the menu about time/timing and when to gtfo are awesomeI will say that the music can be strange-no juke box. Once I listened to 15 different versions of 'regulators' (Warren G) throughout dinner.10/10You'd never expect to find this adjacent to a Freddy's. Or maybe you would.“
“Great Hospitality. We came in from a long trip on Sept 23. We were exhausted, hungry and thirsty. The hostess was sympathetic to our needs. We sat at the bar and were attended to immediately by the bartender (Brian). Had a great meal !! Thanks guys! Well done!“
“The knowledgeable sommelier guided us through a delightful wine selection, both white and red. Our table was graced with an exquisite spread: eggs Benedict, apple fritters, classic breakfast, and caviar with chips. However, coffee aficionados might find the options limited—just French press with half-and-half creamer. Despite this, I wholeheartedly recommend Le Coin for a memorable brunch experience. Can't wait to explore their lunch and dinner offerings!“
“Wow. Just wow. Never have I had such an amazing tater tot combo as the "ancho tots". Queso, flavorful pulled pork, cilantro, tortilla strips, and tots are a winning combo. So heavy, but great to share as a once in a while treat. The green goddess salad was also an amazing combination of ingredients and flavors. The cocktails are good, although fairly expensive. Nice atmosphere, with outside seating when weather permits. Service was a little slow to get our food out, but worth the short wait.“
“One of the best hotel experiences I have had in a while. The hotel is lovely, the room we had (queen bed suite) was spacious and clean, and the overall atmosphere was so inviting. We initially booked here because the were willing to accept my 2 adventure cats (not all pet friendly hotels take cats). We did not need to bring the cats this time, but will for sure on our next trip down. The hotel was walking distance to many of the things we were there to see, which was a huge bonus. A massive shout out to some exceptional “everything” people. Bonnie and Chandra at the front desk, so personable and inviting every time we walked through the doors. To Chloe the barista at Pineapple Express who always appreciated our willingness to arrive at 715 in our PJs and fancy robe lol. And Darryl at the bar who made our last evenings stay funny and memorable. We will be back 100%.“
“We visited this location for drinks and snacks. Food was better than expected. I specially loved the hummus. Crab cakes were also good, a nice touch with papaya. They also have a good beer selection. It was pretty empty for a Friday hh time, but we actually enjoyed that because we were able talk.“
“as this was my first time trying gumbo, I'm not sure I'm fully qualified to judge this, but I'll give it a shot anywaynormally, I don't like soups, because they're mostly liquidhowever, this was less of a soup and more of a dish with a ton of sauce - due to how much stuff is in hereI loved that this bowl was completely packed with solid ingredients - so each spoonful got you a variety of different thingsthe most important thing in a soup is getting the broth right - and I have to say they pretty much nailed itthe liquid has some spice to it - which very much pleasantly surprised me, and in addition, it has great depth of flavorI found it to be probably the best part of the bowlnone of the toppings are particularly noteworthy - they're all pretty solid additionsas mentioned earlier, the amount of meat in here was pretty fantastic.I noticed chicken and sausage as being especially present throughout, and both were pretty goodthe bread was decent - I thought it could've used more toasting/crispiness and more butter - as it became a bit too softwhen dipped in the gumbothe fries were also ok - i would've loved if they were seasoned with some sort of cajun seasoning - but the sauce was goodthe price wasn't too expensive, around 15 dollars, but the portion size wasn't huge either - so it's about a wash thereOverall, good flavor with a ton of different ingredients. 8/10“
“One of the neighborhood bars!! My mom used to hang out there and bartended for a while and that was my first time there since 2001. It was really nice, very relaxing. The atmosphere was really nice and everybody was very friendly and the bartender was great. Thank you, Mel and all the people to Caroline that “
“I have been to Cook Weaver 5 times now and it is amazing every time. They are now a tasting menu and they have a lot of amazing flavors. The vegetarian tasting menu is so savory. This time was the best I have ever had there with lots of mushrooms and nori. The service was so friendly and fun. The murals are gorgeous and the building is a cute little spot. I will continue to come here for special times in my life. Some of the best dishes of my life, definitely on par with Michelin starred restaurants we have tried in the past. The other members of my party raved about the omnivore menu. Pricey but definitely worth every penny. The wine pairing was great too with some really unique choices.“
“Awesome dive bar with cheap beer. We ordered apps (mozz sticks and nachos), which were amazing. Fun atmosphere with college football on the TVs. Also, they have pinball and a few arcade games. I will definitely be coming back to watch more UW games!“
“out of all the fine dining places in seattle, this doesn’t necessarily have the best food, but it undoubtedly has the best service and atmosphere. i appreciate that there is a formal dress code as it really elevates the ambiance of the meal. the service is truly unmatched; you feel very welcomed and the staff takes care of every aspect of your experience. the view is probably one of the best in seattle. however, for the price point, the food is merely good. there certainly were dishes that blew my mind, but this was maybe 2 out of the 10 dishes we tried. the drinks again were good, but not particularly special. again at this price point i would expect the food and drinks to be more singular.“
“During my recent visit to Seattle, I had the pleasure of dining at Swel, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance set a high standard – elegant yet welcoming, perfectly capturing the essence of fine dining with a personal touch.The highlight of my meal was the filet with peppercorn sauce. Cooked to perfection, it was a flavorful masterpiece that melted in my mouth. Accompanying this was a tequila old-fashioned – a delightful twist on a classic. This drink made me rethink my usual bourbon preference; it was that impressive!But what truly set Swel apart was the owner's involvement. Their passion and dedication were evident in every detail, from the meticulously crafted menu to the attentive service. It was inspiring to see an owner so deeply involved, ensuring each guest's experience was exceptional.In summary, Swel is a must-visit for anyone in Seattle seeking a top-tier dining experience. It's a testament to what happens when exquisite food, innovative drinks, and heartfelt hospitality come together. A true five-star experience! Also, make sure to get the scratch-made bread pudding. You won’t be sorry.“
“Pancita was sooo good! One of the better meals I have had recently. We got the tuna tostada, brisket suadero tacos, and the half chicken and mole. All the flavors were incredible, and I loved the ambience of the restaurant. Excited to come back!“
“Briley's BBQ in Kenmore is hands down the best barbecue joint I've ever had the pleasure of dining at.
