This open and airy restaurant has a lovely ambiance, although we found the food had more to be desired. The concept is a good one, but wished the food was a little better especially for the price.

Wasn't super impressed for how hyped it was. Food was solid but super pricey. We did the tasting menu and asked if it contained much fish because one of our party didn't eat seafood. We were assured substitutions could be made, but the first three dishes had fish. I get it, the quality is high and you don't want to adjust, but we wouldn't have ordered knowing that, even after we asked. Overall, definitely go if you're an adventurous eater, but for what you get and the price you pay, there are a lot better options in Seattle.

An intimate setting with an open kitchen and great food with top quality ingredients. A good option for a special occassion dinner such as a birthday. The menu here changes daily and for me that's a good enough reason to visit again. The service is impeccable and they also have an extensive wine list.

Holy smokes this is good. You know they have excellent service when they replace the silverware after every course. Chef’s choice and pairings do not disappoint. Ask for Megan!

It's a very cool, hipster type place. The food is prepared with love and attention to detail. It leans a little to the vegetarian side of the food spectrum, so I personally favor a bit more meat type dishes, having vegetables play a secondary supporting role. But if you like veg, then you'll love this place. However, I had a delicious spicy sausage last time I was there.

We sat at the bar and the bartender was very nice and helpful. The food was very good, but I thought the dessert could be improved upon. The cocktails at the bar were great. I liked the carrot salad and it was surprisingly rich. The cheese plate came with a surprisingly large amount of crackers. Overall a very good meal and a nice experience at the bar when we didn't have a reservation.

One of my favorite spots to have a nice meal with perfect service, in a bustling yet beautiful and secluded atmosphere in Capitol Hill. The menu is varied yet not overwhelming, using quality ingredients and a nice drink selection. I love the Columbia City baguette with whipped butter and sea salt. Usually able to share a few of their locally foraged plates as servings are not large. I’ve had success walking in during the week, but Fridays and Saturdays can get busy for dinner so recommend setting up a reservation. Also lovely for weekend brunch, but again can quickly get busy so plan ahead.

Wonderful, fresh, rustic yet refined Northwest restaurant. Fare matches the environment well. I ate pickled vegetables and fruit in a range of complementary brines, fresh pea salad with stretched mozarella running through it and delicious gnocchi. Beer selection is small but well curated. Plates are all share sized (for two). Could use some fans/AC when it's 80° outside.

★★★★★ 5/5
A cute brunch and dinner place located in the Melrose market in Capitol Hill. The menu is made of food sourced locally and changes often based on what type of food they can get. You never know what’s going to be on the menu when you go. Everything is served family style so you have a chance to be able to try everything on the Menu. Some of the menu items are common staples: like charcuterie and yogurt, but they are often sure to change the menu for what they are able to get from their suppliers.
