“Sat for 25 minutes without any server acknowledging (giving a menu, smiling, nothing) our table of 5 right in the middle of the bar. Very rude and could have been a very nice tip. Also, if you waited at the bar for a drink the bartender told you to take a seat at a table and wait for a server...ha! Ya right!“

“Wonderful cocktails, good food, lots of flavor, and excellent deserts. Everything over delivered and was beyond my expectations. Shane gave good service and we appreciated his enthusiasm explaining the Hemingway theme of the establishment. I'll be back.“

“This little bar has great cocktails and food. We like to come here before concerts in the Climate Pledge Arena.
I would say both cocktails and their menu are a level up above regular bars and the pricing is appropriate given the quality.
The staff is friendly and enhancing the overall experience.
On our last visit we liked the selection of specialty cocktails and since they had wild boar tagliatelle I had to try those, too. It was delicious as was the grilled octopus and the rosemary potato tartine. Nice touch adding the red beet microgreens, now i want to add those to my home microgreens farm, too.“

“Very friendly and welcoming staff, nice selection of fresh & tasty appetizers and entrees, and custom cocktails.“

“Delightful little craft cocktail bar serving inventive and complex drinks along with classics and a small but mighty food menu, plus an outdoor patio section for when the weathers nice. Bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable. Plus they have Fernet! Highly recommend.“

“Beautiful, lofty space to enjoy the sun or the rain in an upscale but unpretentious atmosphere. Distraction free (no televisions or QR codes). Top notch draft beer and loved the sandwiches -- my Italian Canadian husband said they reminded him of his mom's! If that's not a compliment I don't know what is.“

“I stumbled in here after work one day and am so glad to have come across this hidden gem! Wonderful place to find and truly has a unique intimate vibe you can’t find anywhere in Seattle. Portions are generous and food is tasty as well.Service is great and you can see the passion and pride the owner takes in his restaurant.“

“Cool bathroom. Nice location. Friendly staff. I didn’t have a drink but was told they were pretty good. Portions are large. Vegan selections are limited.“

“Had Dinner and Drinks last night before John Mellancamp. Have to say The Carlisle Room “hit the ball out of the park!” Staff, food, ambiance and drinks were awesome. I especially enjoyed our waiter, personal attention and help with the menu was awesome. Can’t wait to go back for happy hour! Thanks for an awesome evening!“

“Fantastic eats, lovely vibe, stellar service. Highly recommend.“

“The food was phenomenal! Authentic, flavorful and so delicious. My mind was blown the whole night. Their mocktails and sweet tea are amazing! We will definitely be coming back!“

“A Scotch nerd's paradise. I've never seen a Dornoch distillery bottling in a bar in the USA (nor Thompson Bros IBs), nor Abhainn Dearg distillery. Old Springbanks (& Longrows, Hazelburns) at prices that just beg you to indulge. Half-ounce pours available, so you can try plenty. The best Scotch whisky bar in Seattle by a country mile. The four whiskies pictured cost $59 total!“

“Delicious authentic food and drinks are good. Great service by everyone !!!“

“Was very excited to see a tapas restaurant open so close to me and even more excited when I discovered how delicious it is! The mocktail selection is KILLER and changes regularly enough to keep it interesting. As for the food, we typically get almost the entire menu, very easy to split between two folks. Normally, I am very unfond of mushrooms but the hongos are easily one of my favorite dishes on the menu. To finish things up I highly recommend their cheesecake, which isn’t in the traditional style but it’s light and fluffy and freaking delicious!“

“My favorite brewery in a city full of exceptional breweries. The perfect place to catch a baseball game + the sunset over the sound. The food is great, the beer is great, and the bartenders make you feel like family. I'm a big fan of the maple chili wings & (despite drinking myself out of IPAs in the 2010s) the ever-crushable Glitter Paw IPA. Go and blow kisses at Cuyler for me 😘“

“Great food and great staff. Always delicious beers and cocktails. Great plant based options.“

“The cocktails I had were amazing. Staff was awesome and very generous.“

“I made dinner reservations for my staff at A Stir after a conference in Seattle, though I was unable to attend myself—and I must say, I’m so bummed I missed it! The following Monday, I was greeted in the office by my entire team raving about how amazing the food and service were. Every dish was packed with flavor and crafted with quality. With team members who are gluten-free, it was crucial to find a restaurant that offered more than just a basic salad. A Stir exceeded expectations with a full menu of creative, nutritious dishes and an extensive selection of wine, cider, and gluten-free beer. On the morning of our reservation, I received a thoughtful email from the executive chef, Ton, with personalized recommendations. This added such a nice touch and made the experience even smoother for my team. Our reservation was at 6:15, and when my team arrived, dishes were freshly served, hot, and ready—a perfect way to unwind after a long few days at the conference. Dining at A Stir was the ideal way to close out their weekend, and I can’t wait to visit on my next trip to Seattle to experience it myself. Thank you, Ton and the entire A Stir team, for providing my staff with such a refreshing and memorable dining experience!“

“Came for Happy Hour alone and decided to order each item from the bar menu and had myself a tasting menu. It was plenty of food... I really should have stopped at 3 or 4 HH portions. I highly recommend the garlic prawns, the chili cumin pork ribs, the duck spring rolls, and the tomato salad (with the salted egg). The bartender also poured me two exquisite cocktails... a sidecar and then a paloma. Yum!“

“What a find? We had diner at Tyger Tyger Saturday night. Started off with the hand rolled pork wontons. Was a great way to start our meal. We tried the Tyger Tyger Fried Rice, Rockfish with Sour Mustard Greens, Chili Cumin Beef and rounded out our meal with the Wok Blistered Asparagus and the Greens with Walnut and Bacon. WOW what a taste sensation. Favorite…. The Rockfish and Blistered Asparagus. Was very easy to order, the food was ready when we came to pick it up with utensils included. Pick up was all staged in accordance to the social distance guidelines and staff was very polite and accommodating. Can’t wait for the drink menu to become available. Cheers!“

“Fantastic location for music lovers, just a short walk from everything on the waterfront!“

“Such a fun place to grab a craft cocktail and some pho. The drinks were very unique and the pho was surprisingly very good. We also tried the Tofu Dip and the spring rolls. The dip was delicious but very rich and the spring rolls were very fresh. We definitely ordered too much food but it was delicious and a fun experience.“

“If you’re near Woodenville, Washington definitely make plans to stop at McMenamins Anderson School in Bothel, Washington. It’s a former school tranformed into a unique Hotel Complex. There’s a movie theater, swimming pool, tiki lounge, restaurant, sports bar (the woodshed), a whisky shed and gift shop. Elanha was the hostess for the Woodshed and she spoiled us from the time we arrive until we left. Her Customer Service was Outstanding!! An Amazing, Fun Stay!!! You Won’t be Disappointed!! The Anderson School Location is also near Wine Tasting Country:) Have Fun!!“

“My Father's Day Surprise was a visit to Arleana's Restaurant in Kirkland, Washington. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The food was very good, especially the jerk syrup was was delicious. And I am very picky about jerk seasoning. The Bloody Mary had a unique flavor. It was not my traditional BM. But it was surprisingly great. It's quite a drive for me. But I will return for the selection of food, drink and ambiance. This was a great dining experience.“

“Very cool bar near Greenwood with delicious drinks. The bartenders are absolutely amazing and keep the vibes up in the already neat atmosphere. They went above and beyond to make each drink special. Comfy seats, clean bathroom, and various snack options. It is a small venue so better for groups of 4 or less.“

“I expected some good fish and chips, but this place goes above and beyond. Everything made from scratch. The presentation looked like no other fish n chips ive ever had. Hand filleted fish, and the fries even sliced in a way that made this meal a 10 out of 10“
