We finally made it here after years of walking by the door! The restaurant is much larger than it looks from the outside. Beautiful decor, great service, live music, and fantastic menu. We got lucky and were seated in the back room with a view!

Fantastic dinner. Was our last night in town and we needed a spot for team dinner. Following a subpar dining / service experience the night before at a different Seattle restaurant, we were looking to end the trip on a high note. This place did not disappoint!! Truly great service, food, and drink! After a lingering dinner, headed to their speakeasy style bar next door for a nightcap. Highly recommend this spot!!
