Good, friendly, attentive service. Excellent cocktails. Beautifully plated Paleo meal. Our ribeye (steak frites) was more medium well than medium rare but very tasty. They quickly brought out an extra oyster when we mentioned our dish was short 1. But it appeared someone wasn't well trained in shucking as we both got shell grit in every oyster. They were served with a nice mignonette. The grilled shishito peppers were excellent. You can't go wrong with the bone marrow! Our dogs were very happy when we came home with the bones. We will go again but not order the oysters.

Came here to celebrate my boyfriend passing his CPA and they were so nice to offer us champagne to celebrate! Staff is very nice and the food was delicious. Quality meat, so tender and flavorful. I highly suggest the bison tartare!

Great wine selection! Double decanted at your table. The vegetable appetizers were delicious! Nice size peice of fish and our waiter was great. Came here for a birthday celebration and was accommodated very well.

My husband and I are on the keto diet for a little bit, so it's been a little hard to find something for date night. We had a double date here and it was amaaaazzzingggggg. The sides were the stars of the meal and paired perfectly with the steak. Service was prompt, kind, and perfect. You'll get the most of your meal by doing things family style here!

Love the paleo idea and watching the chefs hard at work but it's been 90 mins and we still don't have our steak....and there's 4 tables filled. Brought someone from Germany here so we were a bit embarrassed. We also sat for 15 mins with empty cups and had to finally ask another waiter for drinks, only to be told one min and wait for someone else to come. Hoping the food makes up for it but don't plan to come back due to service.

I had a fantastic meal here. My steak was cooked perfectly, excellent crust and flavor. The mushrooms were full of umami, and my companion's Caesar salad was beautiful and delicious. They also had the pheasant, which was a first for both of us to try. It was very good! Perfectly cooked, great flavor. The cocktails all looked very unique and we wanted to try them all! I ended up having the house made rhubarb soda. Not too sweet, nicely tart. I'd buy it by the 6 pack if they had that option! All in all, happy I tried this place, highly recommended for a nice evening out. Service was friendly and accommodating.

That was the most money I’ve ever spent on mediocre food. Ordered the quail, it came dry and slightly burnt. The vegetables were so bland the chef should be ashamed. Had absolutely no seasoning whatsoever. The owner came over to our table and the interaction was...interesting. The service was also not great. Waiter couldn’t be bothered to clear our unused wine glasses and appetizer plates. Got a real off-putting attitude from the staff all throughout the meal. Would not recommend. You can get a much better experience/meal pretty much anywhere else.

The food is fantastic! Great atmosphere and amazing staff. I have a laundry list of food allergies and my waiter Zach and the chef went above and beyond to cater to my needs. The bone broth was the best I’ve ever had, the bison tarter melted in my mouth and the sweet potato chips were one of a kind. Best meal I’ve had in Seattle, without a doubt! 👍🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼
