Good food, atmosphere, service

I went twice. Once for lunch with friends and once with the guys on a Sunday during a football game.

The atmosphere is great for just relaxing or having a nice lunch/dinner. There’s a good balance between elegance and the typical ‘bar’ mood.

You’ll find whatever you’re looking for in their menu. There’s a emphasis on seafood, but you’ll find an assortment of choices from burgers to steaks. There’s even sushi that’s not too bad. There’s also a large beer selection.

Before you get your meal, they serve excellent, hot sourdough rolls. Dellicious!

The prices are what you’d expect for an upscale place, but the happy hour specials are great.

The reason I tried the Taphouse Grill is because they take the Microsoft Prime Card and I get a meal for free :) But I will keep going back for great food and a elegant, but fun environment.

Dishes I tried:

Great Veg food even for carnivours

I took my wife there for Sunday brunch and had a great time.

The atmosphere is light and comfortable. We sat in the patio area which is covered with windows all around and a rock water fountain in the middle. In the rainy Seattle weather, it felt great to get that I’m-sitting-outside feeling without getting wet.

The service is outstanding. We were constantly getting our water refilled from various waiters. Our waiter was delightfully pleasant. When asked about my food, I only hinted that I had asked for a variation, but was satisfied. He brought me a completely new plate within minutes and apologized for the mistake.

The food is outstanding too. I’m a stuborn meat-eater, yet I enjoyed every bite. The salad and dressing was simple, yet delicious. We also had a side of coconut coffeecake and loved it.

Overall, I loved the entire expirience and would highly recommend it. I’m planning on returning with friends to enjoy the atmosphere very soon.

Dishes I tried:

Mediteranian Grilled Sandwich

Excellent! The feta cheese added a great zing to the already delicisious olive spread. Sandwich was grilled and warm and came with a side of salad with amazing vinegarette dressing.
