    This was our second time having dinner at Alder & Ash before going to see a show at the Paramount. Highly recommend! The Theater Menu option is very convenient and well-priced, especially if you're like me and easily get overwhelmed by choices. This place is definitely on our bookmark list of places to eat in Seattle.

    Food was phenomenal all around. We started with the rye bread and the pork belly appetizer, which were both amazing. My wife had the cacio e pepe and I had the short rib with risotto, which both had excellent depths of flavor.
