Or food was great, it was very noisy but also we can deal with that. Our waiter was kinda disinterested and not very friendly to be honest. We got the attention of another waitress who did what we were waiting for in minutes and then some. I know it was busy lady night but also a smile goes a LONG way especially during the holidays.

What a beautiful setting! I can’t wait to go back in the summer! But even on a rainy day, this was worth the drive. I was surprised that the didn’t have valet though. The food and service and cocktails were great. Definitely a thumbs up from me.

One of the dinners ordered was given to another table. 3 of us got our meals while the 4th person waited. Once their food came, the rest of us were finished. So much for having a meal together

Most enjoyable evening with great service and great food. With a party of 8 that included 2 small children, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Will absolutely return on my next visit to the Seattle area.
