Food was good. Especially the meatballs and entree apetizer board. The mood and vibe is a mixture or neo soul, melodic blues, with a pinch of bay area, and a spritz of Lil john all rolled up in one. Seating could be a bit more spaced if possible, but super clean. Service seemed a little rushed which was is my only complaint. Prices a bit high, 110.00 for me and my wife to eat, but the vibe was good in there. Lemonade was on point!. . Had 3 glasses, it was very good. Over all, 1-10, I give them a 7.8.

I stopped in here for happy hour looking for somewhere close to the train station. Its okay. The HH prices are reasonable for this part of Seattle and the food was decent enough. Nothing blew me away. The parmesan cream dip for the foccacia is... gross. Don't order it. Especially for $4 extra. I'd probably come back but only for HH prices.
They literally ignored us. We checked in, and were told there was a 30 minute wait. Put in my number and got the toast-app link. We were the only people in the waiting queue. Never got a text, and the link still said that our table was not ready yet. After about 1.5 hours and seeing them seat other people before us, we gave up and left.

The garlic bread was great. The pesto pasta with added chicken was not good;the chicken was burned and dry (photo attached). We also ordered the ragu with meatballs which were perfectly average.

Bland ragu no sauce ! pretty disappointing. I have a surgery and I was unable to eat for four days and I gotta tell you something. I was totally disappointed in this dish. it was bland and dry.

The focaccia alone is worth giving this place 5 stars, it was that good! I can't remember what else we ordered but I remembered we didn't have that same disappointed kind of feeling we'd been having at most other restaurants (mostly in Capitol Hill) since moving to Seattle.
Part retail/part restaurant which is interesting but nothing to do with the menu. The food was wonderful and tasty but the service vibe was off- first of all I’ve never just Not been greeted as we walked in, she just stared at us- no “hello or welcome”. Seemed annoyed the whole time. But the food was great ! Very large, crispy, perfectly seasoned chicken parm, but no sides and if our server was doing a good job she would’ve asked if I wanted a side, upsell me! My friends had pasta and an Italian sandwich with fresh focaccia bread, which they loved and they have a full bar.
May come back for Happy Hour but can you put a little more “happy” in the service, you’re killing my vibe.

This place was amazing. We ate the meatballs, Caesar salad, focaccia with disco, and pesto pasta with burrata added. Everything was delicious and cannot wait to return.

I like the area, restaurant is clean, staff are only mildly friendly. But the food is not good.
