Restaurants near Maxwell Hotel - Pineapple Hospitality

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!

We have found a new favorite restaurant. An exceptional dining experience from beginning to end. Authentic New Orleans cuisine with flavors that are unique. Very attentive service in a festive atmosphere.

Good service, good food. A little noisy. Would return.

It was our first time at Roti Cuisine yesterday, we absolutely loved it! Starting with food, we ordered Onion Bhaji, Lamb tandoori kebab, Chicken Korma, Garlic Naan and Buttered Roti. We asked for mild (no spice) for all dishes. The Onion bhaji was deep fried just right, and was served straight out from the pan. Then the Lamb kebabs arrived on skewers in a copper vessel along with the breads. They were amazing, cooked just right and melted in our mouths. The Chicken Korma came with rice, and was delicately spiced and not heavy because the chef had used not too much oil in preparing the dish. The Naan and Roti breads came straight from the tandoor oven and were perfect. The servings were good sized, we had ordered too much food for two people, and did not want to over eat, but ended up eating about 2/3 of the food over about an hour and took the rest to go. The food was just excellent! Now to the ambience. The restaurant was full, a testament to the quality of its food and its loyal following. The interior is nicely (and not overly) decorated with Punjabi and Mughal themes. The tables are not too close, and customers were perhaps too busy enjoying their food to talk too loudly. We felt that the environment was very nice and relaxing, and could focus on enjoying the food without getting sensory overload. One suggestion I would have for the restaurant is to have a coat hanger or two near the entrance. We had to keep our coats on extra chairs. Finally, the staff is very courteous and hospitable. We felt they went above and beyond to take care of the guests. The service was prompt and we were left on our own while enjoying our food. We talked a bit to the manager of the restaurant, and he was super nice. We would definitely be back to Roti. It is the best Indian restaurant in Seattle that we have been to. The food is delicious and authentic. The ambience is very nice and the staff is wonderful. Getting to the restaurant and finding it was pretty easy. 5 stars!

Loved the experience, but wish they would take more than one credit card for a group of nine people. When I called on the phone, they told me they could do it, but that evening they said they would not.
