    Charlotte is a great, almost-hidden gem in this part of Seattle. The food is top-notch. We're vegan, and we're impressed with the number of vegan options available. You can't beat the view, either. We're locals. This was our first time, but we'll be back.

    Food is amazing, the place is cozy, perfect for a rainy Sunday. Wasn’t too hungry with my partner, so we went light on the order - “Dutch Babies -Savory” the must order, with a bowl of clam chowder. For two people, medium level craving, it does have me the taste of the joy and allows me to not feeling too stuffed :)

    We had an excellent anniversary dinner last night. It just happened that the two tables next to us were also celebrating their anniversary. We got a bottle of complimentary champagne to share which was super generous and considerate. The food was excellent and our waiter Tom was superb! It was a bit noisy as the restaurant was busy due to the holiday season, otherwise it was a perfect evening!! Thank you!

    We love Harvest Beat! Incredibly creative and tasty vegan dishes that are made with gratitude for the land and farmers who produce the ingredients. Everything is completely natural and again, tastes so good. Both the wine and non-alcoholic pairings match perfectly with each course.

    The food here is so great. There’s something for everyone and they are willing to accommodate, and are so warm and friendly about it. The gluten free bread is so incredible, I mentioned how portland struggles with gf bread that isn’t off, they brought me a whole loaf to bring back with me. It was so so so sweet. I recommend this place to everyone.
