What a wonderful gem! Incredible atmosphere, drinks, and food. Leslie was impeccable as hostess, bartender, server, and busser - she did it all flawlessly. We had an amazing evening here and would absolutely come back again and again. For anyone interested in a food recommendaiton, the pork lumpia and pork rice bowl were beyond delicious.
Great experience, very creative cocktails and food was outstanding - highly recommend
Amazing service, food, cocktails! Honestly really happy I was able to come back to this place. Very fun and refreshing!
I don't get the hype.Cocktails were good but nothing extraordinary. I have no complaints about the food, but it tasted "home made" - is a bit too simple to be offered at a bar/restaurant.
Great ambiance and cocktails , but felt very rushed. I read the reviews and made a reservation weeks before our arrival to Seattle . The food oh my ?….can’t imagine that Anthony Bourdain was served frozen French fries . Very disappointing.
My rice bowl was delicious, but my cocktail was so so. It was so loud inside the tiny restaurant it was hard to hear my date despite sitting across from her at a small table.
We had a negative experience last night overall. We arrived and the hostess was really kind, the place was stunning, but as soon as we went to the lower level everything changed.The Bartender arrived asking what we wanted, we asked for food, and he said "The kitchen is closed" then I ordered a cocktail, and my friends ordered 2 cocktails without alcohol that were in the menu. The Bartender answered, "we don't have those", then my friend ordered another one that was clearly displayed on the menu, and he answered "We don't have those", then my friend asked for "any non alcoholic drink that they do have" and the bartender ended up bringing water with a slice of lemon. After a few minutes of drinking He brought us the check without any notice, and asked us to pay because he needed to finish the transaction.. we thought that they were closing the place, but as soon as we went out more people kept arriving. I found this place not really racial and culture inclusive, but I hope that it was occasional.
Wanted to make a reservation to take a couple of friends visiting from out of town. I texted a day earlier asking if there was availability at a specific time. I got a reply asking for my name, which you’d assume they would do if there was availability. I replied immediately, but no confirmation received until next day so I text again asking for confirmation. I receive a response 3 hours before saying they’re booked till very late and offered me a table 2 hours after my initial ask which would not work out for us since we were planning on dinner too. So basically, they had no availability but they didn’t bother to tell me and instead ask my name because of which I did not book elsewhere until it was very late. So we are left without any reservation on a Saturday night. The other poor reviews talking about the “do not care” attitude of the staff does seem accurate. If you want to keep a reservation system, the least you could do is set up an online reservation so people don’t rely on you to take your own sweet time to respond over text.
Passed through Seattle again recently and stopped at my go to on Capitol Hill - Knee High Stocking Co. My last visit was pre pandemic. Can’t believe after all the hurdles this pandemic has been throwing at small restaurants and business - these guys are still standing and manage to put out such delicious food (I can’t get this food in DR) and drinks. They just keep giving it. Loved my steak tapa sammie - think the best Philly cheese steak u can possibly imagine. I was also glad to see my regular Sudoko Spritzer which said in their menu is a best seller out of their 60 seasons in business. What a refreshing, addictive drink and joint - Salud!
Had the Pork Adobo and Tapa, both very disappointing, definitely wouldn't call this Filipino food (or even close). Yellow Rose cocktail was described as floral, citrus and refreshing but it just came out sour - I didn't drink it at all. Only redeeming thing was the shared platter with Lumpia which tasted pretty good.
