Joined Atoma to celebrate 2 years at their Halloween party and it was so fun! We dressed up as Severance (Mark S. & Helly R.) - IYKYK - and ended up getting runner up in the costume contest. First place went to Ted Lasso, which honestly makes sense… Ted Lasso is the GOAT.
The staff absolutely made the night! Harley Quinn was dancing the night away while handing out sandwiches, Batwoman had some unreal moves, and Poison Ivy was so good I’m already planning to come back for future events. The food was great, and shoutout to the Roquette bartenders - Riddler and Joker - plus the person serving wine (I didn’t catch their name, but they were awesome too!).
DJ Kaipo was 100/10. Perfect vibes all night. I would 100% do this again next year. I only wish we could’ve stayed for the 8pm session too!
Thanks Atoma - we’ll be back! Happy Anniversary 🥂

It was my birthday dinner celebration and could not have been more perfect. Cozy comfortable atmosphere and beautiful creative food. The cocktails were particularly creative and complex. Everything we ate was unique and delicious but I keep thinking about the Grilled Maitake in a Shawarma situation. It was otherworldly and I will be back to have it again.

Read about this - possibly on the NY Times best restaurant list (in Seattle).
We went because it sounded good, and the samle menu was so brief. Intriguing.
We had reservations (I'd strongly recommend them, the place is small, maybe 40 seats?), so we got seated quickly.
The space is tight, but laid out as well as could be possible. We were seated close to the bar/kitchen, but I never ever felt a staff person bump my chair or anything. It's well appointed, nice decor.
Service was superb, from start to finish. That is often one of the things I notice, generally after the fact, how well cared for we were without immediately noticing it. They made everything effortless.
Started off with some cocktails (the Missing Miraflores and Jabroni (both very good, but if I had to pick the splitting hairs less perfect thing that night, it'd be the cocktails - and they were really good!).
Then off to the food:
1) small bites of radish cake with geoduck, and a rosette cookie with glorious onion jam hiding underneath.
2) Dungeness crab and corn bisque (wow!)
3) kanpachi with tomatillo broth (absolutely delicious)
4) crumpets (with jersey butter) were perfection - it is as if they seared the top surface carefully in a pan - just great
5) The for-two duck dish - duck, duck-gooseberry I think it was called - glazed duck breast slice perfectly, with chanterelle stuffed leg of duck (Oh man!) and chicories - Superb.
6) Baked Alaska with horchata ice cream and apples atop a churro - really nice way to end the meal
7) But yes, there was still more - stroopwafels and a melon pate de fruit (I am a huge pate de fruit hound).
Highly recommended. It is not cheap, but it is worth it. Try it!

Celebrated our anniversary here and had a wonderful time. Everything from the signed card from the team to the creatively illustrated cocktail menu to the excellent service and wonderful food made for a great evening. Also really appreciate the staff being able to make substitutions where possible to avoid a dietary sensitivity.
Absolutely would make a trip back if I find myself in Seattle again.

Atoma really exceeded expectations. The grilled cucumbers were a surprise highlight: smoky, perfectly balanced, and surprisingly addictive. The duck preparation was unique, not overly sweet, and beautifully presented. The crudo so flavorful. Cocktails like the Jambroni and the after dinner coffee and whiskey drink were creative, well balanced, and beautifully presented. The appetizers and cocktails stole the show for me.
Service was outstanding: knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. The wine was also very good. Every dish felt thoughtful but not overly fussy. Unique flavors and not overly complicated so the main ingredient really could be enjoyed in both fresh flavor and texture. Some of the best tomatoes I have eaten over the last year. A place that takes flavor and presentation seriously but still makes it all feel comfortable and welcoming. I left impressed and looking forward to returning soon.

Went out for a nice birthday dinner. Waitress was very nice. Food was great.
Their non-alcoholic cocktails are really nice too.
Their shareable portion of the menu is not super shareable as they tended to be very small. If you want something to fill you up, definitely go with the chicken schnitzel, potato salad, or the crumpet.
We spent $120 per person before taxes/tip but you can easily get by with just spending $50-60 per person. We just wanted to try as much as we could fit in our stomach.
I think they usually book 2 hours per table. We tried to order more when we realized we still had room but were told our time was almost up. Thankfully the kitchen/waitress were able to get out some more dishes plus the baked Alaska (awesome desert, heard the lady next to us came to Atoma specifically for it) before it was time to go!
Will definitely come again

We have eaten at all the nicest places in Seattle and Michelin restaurants all around the world (sounds douche-y but we love food!). This was literally one of the best meals of my life. We brought my parents while they were visiting and ordered every item on the menu but one (I’m not a fan of geoduck). Every single bite was delicious, complex and flavorful. From the “cookie” starters, caviar service, grilled cucumbers (where have you been all my life), the mitake mushrooms, to the habanero sorbet (crazy AND delicious) we were blown away with everything. I appreciate the fun mocktails too! We’ve talked about it every day since we were there and can’t wait for our next visit!

The man from Okinawa is a wonderfully smooth cocktail and the potato salad a surprising stand out. Service and atmosphere is lovely and intimate. 10/10
We cannot wait to go back here! We've already been twice, and what an incredible experience it's been - from the warm and cozy atmosphere, to the beautifully-presented dishes and unique flavors, to the delicious cocktails. On top of that, all of the staff are just amazing and personable, and make the experience that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

We dropped in on Wednesday and had a cocktail and apps. It was next level with all the categories. Chef Johnny and his capable staff could not have been more lovely. I would highly recommend the food/eating experience. Standing O!
