We had an attentive waitress who was knowledgeable about the menu and made good recommendations. The noise was a little bothersome at first but there was great energy in the place so it’s a trade off I could get past. The food was excellent. The cocktail was delicious. I highly recommend taking an Uber/Lyft. The parking on the side streets on a Friday night was maddening. The dining experience was worth it though. I will definitely go again.

The Chilean Seabass and hamachi crudo are 10/10 , the cocktails are great, and service is always excellent. The desserts are the only thing that could use some work- I have tried them all and they are in the 5/6 out of 10 range for me.

A splurge but we were so happy with our meal! We did one pescatarian and one omnivore tasting menu and every bite was superb. The aged Parmesan + balsamic and fois gras supplements were phenomenal as well. Thank you Sarah for outstanding service! One of our favorite meals in Seattle in a very long time.
