Had a wonderful dinner here. They have a variety of cocktails, all are very good! Love their small dishes more than their main courses. Their small dishes are unique and tasty. Recommend crispy olives, squash blossoms, beef tartare, and charred broccoli.

Like this place! Food is amazing: all the starters are so good and highly recommended. For Main courses, I like capunti and salmon. We’ve tried 10+ cocktails and all of them are goood! Overall, highly recommend food and drinks, staffing are so friendly. Will come back for sure! ❤️

If you’re in the mood for some delicious Italian food, look no further than this restaurant. I was impressed by the rustic, woody ambiance, which sets the perfect tone for a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience.

This is such a good restaurant, I love the small plates because it reminds me of Spanish tapas. My favourite is the snap pea salad, very refreshing yet packed with flavours. Cocktails are reasonably priced and well balanced. The service is very attentive, we brought our puppy here and they offered water and ice as it was a hot day. I also loved the outdoor patio, definitely come here if you’re in the area, you won’t be disappointed!

One of the better brunch experiences I’ve ever had. Our server, Ethan, was knowledgeable, attentive, and went above and beyond. And the food was, to put it mildly, outstanding. The menu options were creative and the flavors were on point. I highly recommend; I know I’ll be going back when I’m in town (from Orange County, although I grew up south of Seattle).

Consistent mixed bag for me. I’ve come here for HH, date night, dinner, and anything in between. The latest was brunch with a few girlfriends. Four of us came in and ordered the following:

Came for brunch! Ambiance was really nice and the waitress was super cool, so that was great! We got the Rigatoni, the Chitarra, and the Charred Broccoli. We also got an Orchard Toddy and it was strong. The Rigatoni was great, the Chitarra was basically like a pretty good carbonara, and I enjoyed the Broccoli!

I’m always happy to find clever eateries like this in Seattle. They have a unique menu and lovely on-street tables. On a Sunday morning after shopping the Ballard market, we stopped in for brunch. The Rose flight was a delightful pairing with the tuna appetizer. See photos!

Came in and the regular hostess was finishing up seating another guest, said she’d be back in a minute. Came back and told me it would be another minute before I’m greeted or seated. A manager and another hostess approach the host post but don’t greet me and chat amongst themselves. After 4 minutes I’m finally taken to my seat. Made me feel pretty invisible. After getting seated our waitress was super nice but didn’t seem to knowledgeable on the food and drink suggestions. Took over 12 minutes to get our cocktails and when we finally got them they weren’t strong and didn’t match up with the price, and food was good, but nothing too crazy, probably won’t be back.

My wife and I ate here last night. It was a fantastic experience. The pasta with calamari and the cheesecake with blueberry compote were spectacular. The menu was interesting- a cut above the rest for sure.
