“I have been to Cook Weaver 5 times now and it is amazing every time. They are now a tasting menu and they have a lot of amazing flavors. The vegetarian tasting menu is so savory. This time was the best I have ever had there with lots of mushrooms and nori. The service was so friendly and fun. The murals are gorgeous and the building is a cute little spot. I will continue to come here for special times in my life. Some of the best dishes of my life, definitely on par with Michelin starred restaurants we have tried in the past. The other members of my party raved about the omnivore menu. Pricey but definitely worth every penny. The wine pairing was great too with some really unique choices.“
“I’ve posted about Beast and Clever before but that was for the Peasant Dinner. My third visit was for the Wine Bar with their A La Cart Menu and this was definitely a more budget friendly option for those who want to try. And the food did not disappoint. I mean it never does. I just don’t think it’s possible to have a bad meal at Beast and Clever. This week’s visit included some Filipino options and the Filipina in me was not disappointed at all. Chef Karl did his THANG with the pork adobo and Sisig. Both were easily the best dishes I’ve had of those from anywhere. The pork adobo doesn’t look as delicious as it is. But the meat was tender, seasoned through and through and not dry at all. The crispy rice was cooked to perfection and the epitome of what you want this to be. I hate to make my mom and aunties upset but it was far superior than anything I’ve had growing up or even making myself. The Sisig was nothing short of amazing either. For me Sisig can sometimes be “too porky” and “too greasy” but he definitely balanced this with perfection. Chewy, savory, bright, slight zing of vinegar and all the things you crave with Sisig. It took everything in our group to not order a second but we still had so much more food coming. And while the Filipino food was my fave from this visit, it doesn’t mean the rest of our food was nothing less than stellar. I’ve been dying to try one of their burger pop ups on Friday and when we saw the burger on the menu, we knew we were going to try. And the way this burger just melted into my mouth was nothing less than amazing. The steak was seared to perfection. Tender and just the right of salt. The beefy profile of the steak was highlighted for sure. The heirloom tomato salad - hands down the best tomato salad I’ve have had this season. It was fresh, vibrant and bursting with delicious tomato flavors that you seek for from a good tomato. I was actually surprised that I enjoyed the raw squash too. Chef kiss. And dessert here is always my fave. The way they end a meal with a savory but slightly sweet dessert, just can’t be beat. We had more and I could go on and on. I guess I’m just here to say - if you have not done beast and clever yet, what are you waiting for? — at Beast & Cleaver.“
“Solid bar food. Fries looked fantastic from afar. Beers are good and options are solid — even if I am not a drinker.We were here, as the Brits and HongKongers would say, for afternoon “tea” so we didn’t eat lunch or dinner but ordered the meatballs and pretzel.3 meatballs covered in melted cheese. Hearty and filling. The pretzel is good and comes with 2 dipping sauces: honey mustard and something else. Also pretty solid.For this one visit, I’ll give them a 5 star.“
“As a coffee person I've tried a lot of coffee shops in Seattle. This is hands-down one of the best coffee shops in downtown Seattle. Love their flavors and they come up with some really good seasonal ones! The ambience in the cafe is also so peaceful and clean with a lot of plants (although the interior is smaller, and usually too crowded during peak hours). Highly recommend“
“At this Romanian cuisine restaurant, the culinary experience is exceptional. Each dish bursts with authentic flavors that transport you to the heart of Romania. Moreover, the staff here are not just attentive but genuinely wonderful, adding warmth and a personal touch to your dining experience. A definite must-visit for anyone seeking delicious food served by an incredibly friendly team“
“The food and setting are good, but not exceptional. I’m happy I tried Autumn, but there is a reason no one talks about it. For the price point, I would expect to be wowed a little more. Certainly nothing wrong with our dishes, but in a city with great food, there are other places that offer more nuance. Also, the open concept kitchen could do with some thoughtful design improvements, the bright lights, white wall and open door into the prep area are a bit jarring and take away from what could be a cozy space.“
