Went here specifically to review the place. Showed up in time for sunset and sat on the patio. The view is breathtaking and the outdoor vibe is cool, laid back and friendly. The service was kind but infrequent. The crinkle cut fries were actually really good!

Love the firepit on the back patio. My dog and I enjoyed the view. The cocktails were great! The bartender makes a really tasty cosmo. He used Contreau liquour for the orange flavor in the drink and it tasted outstanding. (Most bars use Triple Sec liquour for the orange flavor in a cosmo.) The NY steak and fries were not very good. The crinkle fries were of the premade frozen variety and tasted like they had been baked in an oven, not fried. The steak was tough. But, what can you expect for a $26 restaurant steak these days? The staff seems very down to earth and genuinely kind. I saw a cute baby rabbit run through the back patio.

Not sure what happened the their old staff but whoever is working now had my table waiting for almost an hour to the point I had to go tp the bar to put our order in. After that the bartender said our server would be over to check the rest of my tables IDs. The server never showed up, I had to walk up again to bring the other IDs. The server looked at it and the bartender then they still came to the table to check IDs without our drinks that I had ordered AND PAID FOR! Then the bartender had to actually bring our drinks because the server did not want to serve us after she watched us walk in.

Came here for bottomless mimosa brunch on Saturday. Super cute local bar with awesome views of the space needle and a great outdoor space. Really enjoyed the mimosas as well as the mac and cheese. I also tried the eggs benedict which was good overall but I think they use hamburger buns instead of english muffins. Solid brunch option in Seattle if you're trying to get boozy early in the day but I'd go elsewhere if food is your priority.

Great brunch spot for a amazing views and truly bottomless mimosas! (i don’t think i saw the bottom of my cup!) service was stellar and we had no problem getting a table on a beautiful morning! portion size was perfect, not too heavy / huge so i didn’t actually feel like i needed a nap after! hollandaise sauce was very tasty overall great for a chill brunch with friends

Nice vibes, good service, and a decent selection. Cool spot for views if the weather is right and there's a seat outside.
