This new restaurant just might be my favorite in Ballard! Incredible seafood; the crab cake is expensive but truly delicious and worth it (nearly all crab unlike many others). The Brussels & Oysters were very good, and the broth on the Bouillabaisse was to die for. And the thrice-fried potatoes were *to die for*.

Fantastic drinks and delicious food!! Definitely recommend this spot for a quick bite/drink or a family dinner! It’s a plant loving atmosphere with sooooo much bourbon and more! The bartenders are awesome and can make you a lovely drink off the rip! One of the best Ballard spots ever! Harry and Joey are great!

Finally tried this place for brunch and we’ll be back for dinner at some point! The best crab cake we’ve had in the last dozen years! Everything was perfectly flavored and balance — oh and no kids allowed, which was perfect for our kid-free week.

Went here while traveling through Seattle and had a wonderful dinner experience. The food far exceeded our expectations. Portions are generous and everything tasted great. We had the fried Brussels sprouts, potatoes, crab cake and scallops. The scallops were a sleeper hit and our favorite. Wished we lived closer so we could come back!!

the Rockfish aguachile, grilled zucchini and squash and potatoes were the stars for me. Blueberry sour was a little pricey but yummy and I don’t like gin!

Our time here was absolutely wonderful. The salmon and scallops were cooked perfectly, the sides and sauces were delicious, and the staff was the right balance of taking care of us and giving us space. Plus the pineapple daiquiri was worth getting twice. I highly recommend this for any dinner night out.

The seafood chowder and crab cake were amazing. The prawn cocktail was underwhelming. I was expecting colossal prawns, but they were pretty average sized and the cocktail sauce was very different than the “normal “
