I had some drinks and dinner here when I was in Seattle visiting family. My meal was excellent, as well as the cocktails. I’d definitely go back. The atmosphere was a little on the quiet side for me. I like a more lively environment when I’m out. But it’s a cool intimate place.

I have wanted to eat here for sometime mainly because it is the best named restaurant in Seattle. Damn the Weather! are great words to live by in the Pac NW. The place did not disappoint, it is casual and lowkey a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or coworkers at lunch.
Service is nice but not over-friendly it is very Seattle, location on 1st Ave is perfect, quality ambiance that is tasteful but not pretentious with no loud music or TVs.

The food is simple with variety and a couple exotic choices.
Kitchen is small and ingredients seem fresh and committed chefs. Clam chowder was good, steak salad generous portion of steak and hamburgers are as good as they get.

Highly recommend. Not the cheapest but reasonable for Seattle, alcohol more pricey than the food I think.

I really enjoyed the music and the vibe they had here. I know im supposed to be writing about food, but...the music was nice, kinda like yacht rock. Anyway, I ordered the grass fed beef burger with a salad and salmon burger with fries. the beef burger was decent, salad was goodish, just very zesty. My daughter said the salmon burger was good and could have been a bit more juicy. overall, nice place, good service.

Stopped in for a small bite and drinks and I must say; they have excellent cocktails. I ordered their meatballs and it was also quite good.

If I could give this place ZERO stars I would!!! I have never ever very encountered staff this rude and unwelcoming right off the bat! There was no ambience, no warmth, and zero respect! pretentious, rude staff! Avoid at all costs

Great service and atmosphere. Unique, stellar cocktails and dinner options, hands down the best duck fries and all of the food arrived finely prepared. Super fun and delightful local spot, clean washrooms. Good location and easy to get to. The only poor review mentioned loud music... but we did not find it loud. Our company could hear each other well and not so much other patrons. Damn the Weather was so great!

Great atmosphere but kinda disappointed with the service we sat and had a few drinks at the bar and shared some food. My husband then ordered one last drink and the server said he felt uncomfortable serving him anymore vodka!!! I mean yea ok we had like 4 drinks each but we were fine!!! A great experience turn into a total waste of money! And yes sorry we didn't leave a tip as I thought this has totally ruined the whole experience.
