Affordable, and quite wonderful food combined with great service makes for a wonderful experience. This was before I knew about the concept behind the restaurant, which is definitely worth a read! Went here for lunch with a friend. When you enter, you get the feeling that this place will be on the rich side. Downtown Seattle, great decorations, nicely set tables. All has the vibe of a $30-$50 plate restaurant. I was happily surprised when I got the menu. All of the lunch items were beyond reasonable, especially for location, and ingredients! Most lunch items range from $9-$15. I ordered the blackened salmon sandwich, with a side of tomato basil soup, at the recommendation of my friend who works just a block away. My friend ordered a full tomato soup, and a side salad. Both of our items came out quite quickly, and in the mean time my water was refilled several times, and my coffee was refilled twice as well. Top notch waiting service. The food came, and the salmon sandwich was wonderfully well prepared. Cooked to have just a bit of black on the outside, but still juicy inside, and not dry. It was well seasoned with just the right amount of herbs and spice. The tomato soup was very delicious as well, tasted fresh, and not something just made from a frozen soup block thrown in a pot of hot water. All of the items were presented nicely as well. Definitely had me thinking the whole time that this could go for a much higher price, and people would still happily eat here! After leaving the restaurant, I checked out their website, and began to read about the company and its mission. This made me appreciate and respect the restaurant even more. They provide job training and experience to local people going through hardship, whether homelessness or unemployment. They are helping the community build its skill to have a better equipped, employable population. When you combine this with the fact that in most aspects it presents itself as a high class restaurant, it is really a remarkable feat that FareStart has accomplished. Go here! Give it a try! See if you are as impressed as I am! Find some tasty well made meals, for a reasonable price, while also helping your community build itself! Definitely going back, and would recommend to all! -Cheers! read more

I've been finding myself wandering into SLU and the D-Tri more often these past several weeks. Ending up here for a lunch was rather nice. Lunch crowd is solid. For 1, the wait was decent and it's great to check out the wall of many different chef portraits in the meanwhile. For what it is, I like the level of design and simplicity; although the tall entry curtain divider is nice! Probably on par with good pricey restaurants, you may or may not leave with a full tummy but the food is really good. I think I had an eggplant small app and the lemongrass meatballs. The eggplant was a tasty bruschetta morsel (not too tough/hard nor too soft - good bruschetta is always awesome!) and while the meatballs didn't radiate lemongrass flavors like I'd wanted, they were still rather tasty in other ways. I asked about the chai, as well, but it's just Tazo - not often my preference. The few staff who came by were rather pleasant but one guy who seemed slightly odd. I'd come back for a PLATE of that bruschetta and trying more hearty dishes. read more

Same awesome organization, new awesome setting. The concept is simple. They transform lives by teaching homeless and disadvantaged men, women, and families to achieve self-sufficiency through life skills, job training and employment in the food service industry. They also partner with some of the best, tasty, and fanciest restaurants in town. They're open weekdays for lunch and dinner OR you can go on a special night for a special treat, called Celebrity Guest Chef Night. CGCN happens once a week, every Thursday. You can check out the menus and make reservations here: http://farestart.org/restaurant/guestchef/calendar/index.html And since they've moved into a new location they also provide onsite catering, offsite catering and a great setting just a few blocks north of the downtown shopping district. So pass it on. The food is delicious. The price is right. And you're supporting a great organization. Well, what are you waiting for? Just go! read more

FareStart - FareStart Appetizer on May 31, 2007 - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Great spot for an semi-upscale lunch that you can feel good about. Farestart quote: "It is the most socially responsible crouton you will ever eat." --I had to try it. I loved the lofty dining room space, the attentive servers and the food.. pretty good, nothing mind blowing. You can tell the ingredients are 'quality' and come on.. the cooks are homeless students, the menu changes often, so I'm sure each meal is different. I promise you will feel really good knowing that your dime is used wisely in a lovely setting. ALL monies go back into the student program, even server tips. I can't wait to try a "Guest chef" night here. The best chef's in the city donate their time to help instruct here. This place is inspiring. I totally recommend it! read more

I've been to FareStart for dinner and really like the goal of FareStart to get those that need a second chance/ back on the ground with practical culinary/kitchen skills training. Although I've never been to their lunch sitting, the dinner one was quite good. For dinner, there's a rotating list of local Seattle Chefs who come in to teach individuals on how to prepare 3 course meals. You can either participate at FareStart by helping wait the table or dine a 3-course dinner there to support the cause (for a really reasonable price!). The food is pretty good, but don't expect anything too fancy. You get a choice or two for appetizer / main course. For the price and the cause though, I think the meal is definitely worth it. Dinner you almost always want to make a reservation. The place seems to be booked everytime I try to look into a table for dinner at the last minute. If you've never been to FareStart, check it out! Dine a delicious meal and provide support for your community at the same time! read more

I just do not understand why the food depicted here looks so fantastic and yummy, when 5 days a week I see the nastiest looking and tasting slop seriously undercooked rice is a norm, today it was supposed to be"chicken curry" but it was terribly burned , so they just took the skin off so you couldn't see the worst burnt parts. a lot of times the side and the dinner and the vegetable will all just tastes the same . I've had food poisoning from eating the dinn ers the last time it was a so-called shepherd's pie but it was nothing like a shepherd's pie I was very very ill and couldn't go anywhere for 2 days. mystery island joke and it kind of a fun thing for the staff to look at the table and try to identify it sometimes so it was just said that it is "beef, we think" ........ intercom..lol. and when it consistsinsis something with fish or actually when is pork read more

From one service nonprofit provider to another - THANK YOU! This is a EXCELLENT organization that teaches people a practical trade AND offers a internship to practice their skills... what a great concept! At times, in my past job, we would have our staff meetings and purchase lunch here. ****GREAT PRICE ****FOOD PREPARED FRESH FOR YOU ****GREAT COMPANY support our community! read more

I love the ambiance and decor of this place. The tall ceilings combined with glass windows all around at this corner location opens up the place in a unique yet private way. Just to top that off, the food here is delicious. Every dish I ordered came just right as described. The dishes themselves are very common American dishes, but you can see and taste the detailed work that went into each plate. read more

Had to give this restaurant a try on my last day in Seattle. The ambiance was bright and modern. We ordered the Kobe Beef Sliders special( it came with sweet potato fries, and aioli for dipping, the meat was good, but not juicy or tender enough like the kobe I had before). We also ordered the Blackend Salmon Sandwich ( the salmon was a bit over cooked, and the buns were cold), I think it would really make a difference if they would've toasted the buns. The Corn Chowder with Chipotle was good. The service was good, but inattentive at times. Over all I think this restaurant has a great mission, and potential for creating great foods consistently, we should all support their efforts in getting people back on their feet! read more

FareStart - Creamy and cheesy polenta with veggies and sunny side egg. Delicious! - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Guest chef night. Great concept. Beautiful space. Jason Wilson from Crush was in the spotlight. Beet salad with blue cheese and watercress. Stuffed chicken breast with wonderful au jus. Followed by a large "spoonful" of chocolate mousse. Tasted superb. I do have to say that the portion size wasn't consistent. Sat on the community table. The people next to us portion sizes were significantly bigger on their starters and entrees. For example, we got what could have been called 2/3 of a chicken breast. They had the complete breast. That was my only true criticism. Such a shame! Service was a bit spotty. Chef Students from a local high school were volunteering and they are not really front of the house trained. The person working the espresso machine does need to understand what is lukewarm and what is hot. I'll be going again for sure. Remember be generous with the tip. It goes for a great cause! read more

Atmos: Large, open, offset double decked. Very busy during the lunch hour. Service: Friendly! Tea: Nah. They serve Tazo tea. I wish they would pair up with a local tea maker like Choice or Smacha or someone else in the area. Tazo is meh tea. Vegetarian Food: Great! I've tried everything vegetarian on their menu and it's all great! Today: Roast Beet Salad: Delicious! A great balance of ingredients and a great combination of salty and sweet Fries: Yum! Yum! My favorite fries in town! I think these are battered. They are not overly salty - they are perfect in flavor and texture. I always love what I get here. I hope they start experimenting with new vegetarian options though because it gets a bit boring after a while read more

FareStart - The crowd at Foodfare - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Came here for lunch today for the first time. Am staying at the Hyatt just up the road, and found this place via yelp close by with a ton of positive reviews. Turns out most of them are for what the organization itself is doing and not for the food itself. While I disagree with some of the reviews out there that rate on the experience of some part of the business that doesn't matter; in this case i'll make an exception. Had a burger, but was surprised by all of the options on the menu. The burger itself was good, but not great. Regardless the service was fantastic, something for everyone exists on the menu which changes often, and I felt good leaving money at the end of my meal to help in this organizations initiative. Definitely worth stopping in and having a bite if you're in the city. read more

First of all, read their mission! LOVE! Food was delicious. Very very vegetarian-friendly. I noticed that they had at least one vegetarian item on each section! Appetizers, main entrees, salads, etc. My order: vegetable polenta. Deeeeelish... it came with brussel sprouts, kale, tomatoes, etc. the polenta itself was just so perfect. Dessert: Fuji Apple rhubarb crisp something something with ice-cream. OMDrools... Anyways---- Honestly didn't even know what their restaurant was all about til we paid for the bill at the end. And that's what made the meal extra satisfying! Good food, good karma. :) read more

Four of us went here for lunch and had a great lunch. I ordered a vanilla latte, but the server brought me a chai, BUT the chai was amazing and I'm glad she mixed up the order. We ordered the wild coho salmon cakes and the thyme and chevre crostinis for our appetizers. The salmon cakes were moist, flavorful, and was 99% salmon The crostinis were pretty good too, but I'm not a fan of goat cheese, so I didn't have more than a bite, but everyone else loved them. We ordered the crispy pork sandwich, the blackened salmon sandwich, the pappardelle pasta, and the grilled salmon. Both sandwiches were packed full of meat and were delicous! The pappardelle and grilled salmon were good as well. We ordered two desserts to split between the four of us: mango sorbet in a sugar lace cookie bowl and chocolate filled beignets. The sorbet was light and refreshing and the cookie really went well with the mango flavor. The chocolate beignet dessert was not what we were expecting, but it was still really good. Overall, this place has great food and supports a great cause. I really want to try to go to one of their guest chef nights in the future! read more

FareStart - Crispy pork sandwich - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Excellent food and service. Five star food but at two star prices. The restaurant decor is casual and modern and condusive to eating out with friends or that special someone. I found the service to be top notch that matched the quality of the food. This is a great concept helping the homeless where what you pay goes to helping the program. If you get a chance and it's not too busy, spend some time chatting the the staff there. They'll give you the background of this restaurant and the entire program they have for helping some of the unfortunates get back on their feet. They only open for lunch so reservations is a good idea. On Thursdays they have a local top notch guest chef come in to train the crew preparing dinner. For $29 you get a fancy three course meal. This will be one of my regular visits whenever I'm in the area! read more

FareStart - Pavlova dessert...yum! - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

FareStart not only serves great food, but also serves an important societal function - training disadvantaged individuals to work in the food industry. Their photo wall is a testimony to their successes. I think they're only open for lunch, but there's a prix fixe dinner every Thursday night presented by a celebrity chef. The food was expertly prepared - you could taste the seared-in flavor of the burger, covered with a generous spread of cheddar cheese and served with battered fries that stayed crisp a hour after being served. The vegetarian field roast sandwich was good enough to make a carnivore convert, and the gnocchi was cooked to perfection. Instead of dropping $20 on a mediocre downtown meal and having the profits go to some corporate entity elsewhere, let the proceeds stay local and help others to help themselves. read more

I came here with my boss a few weeks ago for the first time. I'm happy I made a reservation because shortly after we arrived the place filled up and the wait was pretty long. Since this was a work thing, I can tell you the water was great. Our server was really great, attentive and overall very sweet. I ordered the grilled salmon and my boss got the fish and chips. Let it be known the fish of the fish and chips is a heavier batter, and less panko/tempura like than anticipated. The grilled salmon was fantastic. It was cooked perfectly, flaky and not dry. It was paired with bell peppers and something else but I can't remember because it was so tasty, I inhaled it. I love the mission of this place and think that it's so awesome to be giving back to the community. It is a little pricey but absolutely worth the splurge when you're in the 'hood. read more

I went to farestart for lunch one day without knowing the story behind this restaurant. It was busy during the lunch time and we had to wait additional 10-15minutes even though we had a reservation. Their lunch menu was pretty casual: burgers, sandwiches,etc. we decided on grilled salmon dish and a turkey sandwich wth side of salad. Foods were okay, nothing memorable. They had good price, but I am quite picky about what I eat, and I would rather pay couple more bucks to get something i really enjoy. After our experience, i came into yelp to write a review, and learned about their mission. I feel bad to rate them lower because this nonprofit organization is awesome and their cause is great! However, to be honest, food was not as good as my expectation. They have decent food, so if you want to support a good cause while eating your lunch- great idea, go ahead. But don't have too high expectations for gourmet foods. read more

Made a reservation for 1:30pm on a Thursday and was promptly seated. Decor is clean minimalist. Service was very fast. I ordered the flat iron steak and a glass of wine, except the do not serve wine or beer at lunch. My steak was a little better than just OK but the price was very fair at $11.00. The onion rings that came on top were seriously the best I have ever had. The greens under with cream sauce lacked a bit in flavor I thought. But, as others have said 5 stars based on there cause. Was very nice to feel like I was able to give back a little. read more

Good but not 4.5 starts in my opinion. My friend and I shared the veggie sandwich and crispy pork sandwich. I got a salad of salad, which was a huge portion. The veggie sandwich was ok - the patty was made with lentils. The bread was pretty average though, basically just sliced normal bread. The pork sandwich was a bit better for me. That said, it was mostly just solid pieces of fried pork and onion. There weren't any additional toppings. For $15+, I think I would've like to see a bit more. That said, it was still a decent meal and I enjoyed it nevertheless. read more

Do you come to feel good or to have a good restaurant experience? This is for the Thursday "guest chef" night. The chef was the one from Il Fornaio. It was prix fixe menu of three courses. All serving staff were volunteers (and not professional). The kitchen staff were (supposedly under-privileged) students. The main course were a salmon wrapped asparagus topped with capers and artichoke. I think the flavors were off balance (too acid) and over-prepared to ruin the nice salmon. With a glass of mediocre white wine, it came down to slightly more the $50 per person. Guess the community atmosphere is nice. You chat up with the volunteers and learn about the program. You also get the feeling that the patrons were already members of the community that you knew little about. To get real restaurant experience, go to a real restaurant. To feel good about the community, come for the lunch. read more

Yay! I'm a fan. Of their philosophy and of their food. I treated myself to the goat cheese crostini because I was concerned that my steak would take forever and I needed something to silence my stomach rumbles. Pros: Both the steak and the crostini were delicious Cons: The crostini came out at the same time, so I still had to wait for it. Oh well. Definitely want to come back for a chef's dinner. read more

Just saw it from a distance, and knew it was worth trying out. Beautiful room, and great sounding menu. Service was good, friendly (it was raining outside and this room was nice and warm, with great windows to the world). Nice vibe in the room, I think, because you could just feel, that it was more purposeful than just eating lunch. We had tomato soup, pork loin sandwich (the pork was crispy panko fried, but the bread was very soggy), veggie polenta (very tasty, large portion), and salmon cakes (not my favorite, too salty) and sweet potato puffs (too expensive, considering everything else). We finished with an unusual dessert of pomegrante sorbet and lemon tart (nicely sour curd, fine pastry, somewhat bitter sorbet- I liked the strength of the fruit). This is a training restaurant, but you would never know it... I would come back. read more

Great service, very welcoming environment. White bean, winter squash, and kale soup: delicious, rich, seasoned perfectly, just the right amount of nutty beans and sweet squash peppered with tiny bites of greens. Field roast lentil sandwich: so many flavors in the first bite. Tender bread, nutty crunchy lentil patty with a tart bite of arugula and mustard, seasoned with olive tapenade. A very sophisticated sandwich in anyone's book. read more

I have been to FareStart a number of times for lunch. The burger is probably the best option with a side salad. The pork cutlet sandwich is similar to chicken katsu on bread but I found it to be quite dry and the portion to be too large. Steak frites is ok but my medium rare request was medium well and the fries were not great. The service is usually attentive and quick. At lunch this place this place is very busy with a corporate tech and healthcare crowd. If you want a decent table make a same day reservation. If you go at noon prepare to sit at a card table in the upper banquet room away from any light. I love the concept of the restaurant but I think the place needs a menu refresh at lunch. read more

We went at lunch (noon), no waiting and no reservations. It was packed (we had upstairs seating) but we received great service and I would definitely go back. I had the baked salmon and veggies lunch. I didn't leave a morsel behind (good portion).... ok, maybe the carrots but I don't eat cooked carrots. My friend had a salad and again, it was devoured- delicious! In and out with nice conversation and no rushing- 60 minutes, so enjoyable for work/ personal lunch. They also have signature chefs in weekly.... Check me out- totally worth your biz! read more

I came for their Thursday Guest Chef night - the only night they serve dinner, I guess. ...but any review isn't fair. Yes, the food was really good, but next week there will be a different chef cooking something else. I did really like the concept. Feels good to support something like this. A funny moment: The 3-course prix fixe dinner didn't have a price printed on the menu. So I asked my volunteer waitress how much it was - or whether it was "make a donation" - or whatever the idea was. She didn't know either and we shared a laugh when the answer was "$29.99" (which seems more like a marked-down sweater price at Eddie Bauer than a meal price). read more

While in Seattle at a conference, my co-worker and I came here for lunch. The place is pretty cool looking on the inside, I kept staring at the wall with the different decorated plates for those individuals and corporations that have donated money to this organization. I got the fish and chips, and they were really tasty. The fish was not not overly greasy and the batter was good. The chips were addictive and I couldn't stop eating them. My co-worker had the flat iron steak which had a nice flavor to it. Service was good and we were able to get out of there in time to catch our next workshop session. As someone who works with students and cares a lot about social justice, the overall mission of this restaurant to provide training programs and empower disadvantaged students is admirable and I would never hesitate spending my money supporting a restaurant with such a wonderful mission. read more

I decided to come here after seeing Brandon T's review. I'm also staying at the Hyatt, and this place is a short walk up 7th Ave. Got fairly full for lunch at about noon. They recommend reservations, but for 1 or 2 you should be fine without. Excellent service, very solid food. My favorite was the creme brule, but I love sweets. Feels like a regular restaurant, they don't push the narrative, which I appreciated. In short, FareSart is a non-profit that provides culinary training for the homeless to prepare then for careers in the restaurant business. Aptly named, no? They're run like a culinary school. They only serve lunch, except nights when they feature guest chefs, or even the FareStart chefs. Definitely worth a visit. read more

I have been here twice and both times have been pretty enjoyable. Last week my boyfriend and I went to the guest chef night. The meal started out with a shrimp salad that was good but it had a little bit too much celery in it for my taste. The main course was decent. It was a BBQ plate that came with a rib, brisket, two fried pickles, coleslaw, and two biscuits. The rib was definitely the best part as well as the fried pickles. The biscuits were dry and the coleslaw was too oily which made the whole meal overall ok. Desert was pie!! I had the peanut butter pie and it was really delicious. The inside is very nice and comfortable too and the you can see into the kitchen in the back and watch them cook. We scored a corner table next to a window last week that could have sat 4 people which I was very happy with :) Both times I have visited the servers were SO nice and attentive. They are super good about refilling your water and noticing when you're ready for your next course without rushing you. This place supports a great cause and $30 bucks gets you a 3 course meal which is rad. The location is really nice too and easy to get to. If you make reservations make sure you read the whole email because you can get $6 parking (instead of $14) at the garage a block or two away from the restaurant as long as you get the parking ticket validated at the front desk. read more

Here's another one of those situations where I wish I could have separate rating categories. Concept's do-gooder-ness: 5 - Essentially the restaurant provides training and job placement assistance to program participants who are homeless or otherwise disadvantaged. Why does this rock and remind me of NYC's Ready Willing and Able program because they are looking to solve the problem not manage or hide the issue. Restaurant's food: Good, not great. The menu is interesting. The end taste is pleasing, but the execution should continue to be refined--and/or the expediter should consider slightly higher standards before sending food out of the kitchen. Entrees were a bit too oily or proteins too dry. The dessert (strawberry shortcake) was pleasant but the biscuit/cake item was a bit hard. I'm a fan of the restaurant layout and decor. Open viewing kitchens are fun. Standout item: The tomato basil soup. read more

This place is great! Not only does it have a chic atmosphere, delicious food, and reasonable prices, but it represents an amazing program that supports student job and training for people from all walks of life! Several of my friends and I went here for lunch and our experience couldn't have been better. We arrived about 15 minutes before our reservations and yet only had to wait a few minutes before being sat at a great table near the kitchen. The waitress handed us our menus right away and then gave us several minutes to decide what we wanted to drink. Upon coming back with our drinks, she took our lunch order. My party ended up ordering two of their appetizers, the wild coho salmon cakes and four orders of their thyme and chevre crostinis, to share between us. The salmon cakes were wonderful! They were moist, flavorful, and consisted mostly of the salmon itself. The crostinis were tasty as well. They put a sweet piquillo pepper jam on top that really brought out the flavor of the cheese. We each ordered an entree off the lunch menu, including: the crispy pork sandwich, the blackened salmon sandwich, the pappardelle pasta, and the grilled salmon. Both sandwiches really hit the spot! Each had a unique combination of ingredients that all complimented the main protein. The pappardelle was good, however we all wished it would have been a little hotter when it came out of the kitchen. The grilled salmon was good as well; however the vegetables beneath it were not necessarily what I would have chosen to go with the salmon. Personally I thought the sandwiches were the stars at our table! Lastly, we ordered two desserts to split between the four of us. The first dessert consisted of mango sorbet set within a bowl made out a sugar lace cookie. The sorbet was light and refreshing and the cookie really went well with the somewhat tart mango flavor. We also ordered the chocolate beignet dessert; which consisted of four small chocolate-filled beignets with a cherry compote and scoop of your choice of ice cream. The beignets were okay, not exactly what I was expecting... but they were a hit none the less. By the time we finished our meal, we were all very full and extremely satisfied. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and personally look forward to returning to try out their dinner menu! My advice?! Go check it out, enjoy the food, and support a great cause! read more
