This is some of the best high end food I have had in Seattle. Quiet and unassuming place - and on the more expensive side, but well worth a visit!

A Genuine Gem - only the freshest, in-season fish, meat, vegetables. Japanese and French influences. Superb views of Seattle at sunset are a bonus. Worth a trip from anywhere. One of the best Seattle restaurants. Bring your out of town guests and wow them.

I’ve been dining here for several years, including with a group of “foodie” diners. It’s always excellent in every way. On long light days you can enjoy the view over the sound to the mountains. It’s stunning. And so is chef Toshi’s innovative and delicious cuisine. It’s the best Japanese fusion I’ve ever had. I could eat there everyday!

This has been on the list for awhile. I really really wanted to love this more than we did. The food was delicious and the halibut confit and king salmon were standouts but nothing wow-ed. with the seasonal menu we will probably be back to give it another shot.

Superb food, lovely atmosphere. Excellent accommodating service. The chef is an absolute gem. This restaurant never disappoints. The wine list is expertly chosen. The desserts are imaginative and extraordinarily satisfying. I highly recommend this under the radar Bistro.

Four of us had dinner a week ago. As ever, the food was epic. The service & hospitality again, matching the food. We had a chilled corn soup. Wow, I could bathe in that soup. We shared five dishes off both the starter and main menu. I would highly suggest a visit to this place.

I dined here a few years ago for my anniversary with my girlfriend. We reserved a table a few weeks in advance for a window seat. After arriving and sitting down, we were asked to move from the window seat to another table for another party. At this point my partner and I should have just left. This left a poor taste for us and literally ruined our night. Food was mediocre and staff was not helpful at all. Staff did not do anything to remedy the situation and did not care that we had to move from our seats after sitting down and starting to order our meals. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. It was literally the worst dining experience of my life. I warn all my friends and family not to come here. Shame on you.
Fantastic food. Fantastic service. Cool and friendly atmosphere.

Went on a Wednesday night (yes we like to eat off-cycle). Definitely French in style with heavy influence from Japanese cuisine. (It's not Japanese cuisine with French influence if anyone was wondering.) Really, really great food. And what I mean by that, sometimes, you are looking for a great dish that doesn't try to do too much and is executed to perfection. You can identify and savor all the ingredients that composed the dish and aren't sitting there wondering what this or that is on the plate. Often times, chefs try to do TOO MUCH. And I'm looking down at a dish and saying, what's in this again. That is NOT this restaurant.I won't go into specifics of what we ordered, since it seems the dishes change frequently based on the season. (They also have monthly food events that they host. This month it's sake tastings with an accompanying 5 course menu.) My friend was actually tempted to sign-up to come back the following night for that, just to provide reference of the quality of the experience. But just know, the quality of the food and the execution is top notch on all the 4 dishes we ordered (we ate family style).Their wine list (sake, wine, beer) looked extensive. We opted for a couple Japanese craft beers and were pleasantly surprised.The second thing I look for in a great restaurant (other than food of course) is atmosphere. While it was a slow night, we never felt rushed or unattended to. Dishes were spaced and paced appropriately. Honestly, it could be romantic (what a view!) or just a hang out with a good friend. The simplicity of the interior lends itself to the unpretentious vibe.When I come to a restaurant like Iconiq, it gives me hope for the Seattle food scene. A high-quality neighborhood spot that can also be a destination spot. Hoping more restaurants like this continue to open and thrive.

Wonderful atmosphere and views. Friendly and talented chef. Delicious food and drinks. The building itself is rather hard to find as it has only a small sign. ? recommend this place and look forward to dining here again.

The food was exceptional! The octopus, the salads, the halibut with asparagus!! Everyone at our table of 8 had a memorable, delicious experience. The service was impecable and the view was breathtaking. What more can I say? Oh! Definitely get the desserts- try all of them! Thank you iconiq!!
