"Mbar has all the makings for a total rooftop scene—a social media-worthy skyline view, overly complicated drinks, and the Amazon employees who drink them. But what makes Mbar so much more special is that the food here doesn't suck—it's what keeps us coming back. Snack on Lebanese small plates like shrimp kebabs, tahini chicken wings, and green pea falafel that you should definitely be ordering more than one of for the table. This place is perfect for dates, group outings, and anything else you’d like to celebrate, even if that’s just finishing laundry for the week." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"You know this one. It’s the rooftop of all rooftops. The place you plot your outfit for all winter long while waiting for the sun to emerge. At Mbar, it’s hard to tell where the Amazon employees end and the tourists begin—and that’s what makes it such a party. Reservations are tough, cocktails are refreshing, and post-sunset fire pits are hotter than whatever you scored at that sample sale last spring." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, kayla sager riley
"Reported to be continuing operations under the same restaurant group after the Eastside outpost closed, remaining part of the company's active concepts." - Harry Cheadle
"The roof at Mbar is like the communal patio of an apartment building that’s designed to lure prospective renters into signing a lease and grilling kabobs immediately. You probably can’t actually live inside this Middle Eastern restaurant/lounge, but you’ll certainly want to after taking the dramatically suspenseful elevator ride up top to sit among the string lights, swings, fire pits, and Space Needle views. Sip fizzy pisco spritzes and snack on great Middle Eastern mezze." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
