   Overall great dinner. Just the value for cost is too high so rating lower.

   Our waiter was condescending and too casual. For this price range, the staff and ambiance needs to match. Shining flashlights onto our steaks and having poor tableside manner does nothing to justify the $500+ bill. I would recommend anyone visiting to opt for a better steakhouse in Seattle.

   Our server, Jeanette, was fantastic!! She made our dining experience so much fun. Our dinner was delicious and the desserts were so yummy. We come to Daniel’s for my husband’s birthday each year and tonight did not disappoint!! See you next year, Daniel’s!!

   We chose Daniel's Broiler to celebrate my wife's birthday, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience from start to finish. This was our first visit, and it will definitely be our last. To start, my steak was bland and completely lacked flavor—something you’d never expect at a high-end steakhouse. My wife’s lamb, ordered medium-well, arrived medium-rare, which was unacceptable. Despite these issues, the prices were outrageously high for the quality of food and drinks we received. On top of the mediocre meal, they impose a mandatory 20% service fee. Supposedly, half of this goes to the server and the other half to the restaurant, which felt unnecessary and frustrating given the lackluster food and experience. With so many better steakhouse options in the greater Seattle area, I strongly recommend avoiding Daniel's Broiler. Save your time, money, and appetite for a restaurant that actually delivers on flavor and service.

   We were charged a 20% service charge that did not go to our server. I have never been to an upscale restaurant where I was charged a service charge and it was not for the server..
