    Maitre d was great moved us to a quieter table and our waiter went above and beyond when he located a pillow for my wife’s chair! The drinks are pricey but worth it with top shelf spirits and some expensive ingredients (e.g. chartreuse) rare amaro’s and bitters very nicely balanced and delicious. All the food was excellent, best ceasar salad I have had with addition of Dino kale lots of garlic and creamy Reggiano dressing. Top notch short ribs, scallops and pasta special excellent. 15 years of eating here and the continue to meet a high bar. Cheers!

    We were seated a bit before our actual reservation time and next to the windows with a view of Elliot Bay. Our server, Abbey , was so personable and professional and just delightful. We had the antipasto to start along with delicious garlic bread. My husband had the sole and I had the celery pear soup. It was all delicious and we felt the service was impeccable.

Going back for my bday 🙂
