I walked in and decided to give them a shot. Try something easy ..I got the wonton soup with egg noodles.. the broth was umami and garlicky, and warmed up my soul. The wontons were nice and tender, flavored with shrimp and pork. It was like a warm hug. Hit the spot! Second, I ordered the crispy spicy fish. It was an extraordinary presentation even my Chef friend was delighted to see the culinary expertise of the Chef. And it was also very reasonably priced. The service was excellent. They were very welcoming. The decor of the restaurant is super upscale. It looks like a fancy club. This would be a great place to bring a first date. Overall I was super impressed and very happy that I stumbled into this delicious restaurant. 10/10

We walked over from Pike Place Market and were warmly greeted and seated by Chef Supanot, who…read moreimmediately made us feel welcome. He offered great menu suggestions and shared the story behind the restaurant--his brother designed the space, and he built it with the help of friends, which made the experience feel even more special. The menu is Thai-forward with a few standout dishes from other Asian cuisines mixed in thoughtfully. The décor is gorgeous--an elevated, glamorous tribute to the water buffalo that feels bold yet refined. We ordered the Miang Kham, Crying Tiger, and Mango Salad. I always order Miang Kham when I see it since it's such a rare find, and this one was excellent. The Crying Tiger was tasty but came out more well done than the medium-rare we ordered. That said, we still finished it because the dipping sauce was fantastic and the purple-and-white sticky rice was delicious. The Mango Salad was beautifully prepared with shredded mango that had just the right crunch and tartness. Generous portions served. Even during a busy late afternoon, the chef handled guests with ease and a big smile, serving beautifully executed dishes and cocktails. Very impressive. We'll definitely be bringing friends here next time we're in Seattle. Tip: They do true Thai spice levels here--proceed with caution."

Expect longer wait times during the lunch rush on a weekday, but it's worth it! You can also call ahead to place an order, then pick it up - which has become my preferred method.

Besides sandwiches, they also have a variety of other lunch sides, snacks, refrigerated drinks, household items, etc. It's very convenient if you just need a couple things and don't want to drive over to a full grocery store.

So when we first came here, I felt a little guilty--as if I was cheating on Ruth's Chris, especially since there's one in Seattle! But this place completely won me over. Every time I visit, I try a different cut of steak, and not a single one has disappointed me. They're all incredibly delicious and cooked to perfection. The only thing I'm not a huge fan of is the Caesar salad. They prepare it fresh right at your table, which is fun to watch, but for my taste, it's a bit too fishy because of the amount of anchovies they use. That's just a personal preference, though. The service is always amazing, no matter which location you visit. The atmosphere also varies from restaurant to restaurant, giving each one its own unique character and charm. So yes--this place gets a 1000% recommendation from me! If you're a steak lover, it's absolutely worth a visit. (or a mocktail in my case!)

Just saw my last review was not at the new location and over 8 years old. So, time for an update…read moreas we've been to the new location for a wine dinner, a few cocktail classes followed by a sharing a dinner in the bar. The new location is just north of the Pike Market and Cloudburst Brewery on Western Ave where parking can be challenging. The great news is El Gaucho has valet parking so I drive up to door and let them handle that problem. The interior of course is low-light so get ready if it's late afternoon before sunset for you to go blind from bright light to darkness which is one of the things that makes El Gaucho special. We like to go to special events at El Gaucho where valet is complementary then follow the event with a meal. We have found that ordering the Chateubriand 20oz and share to be the best value and have never been disappointed as always perfectly cooked. The cocktails are top quality and service is impecible. Another plus is you can join their Revelers Club and get points, invites to special events and redeem points toward meal cost.

Cafe Artisan serves fantastic banh mis! The bread was super crispy and not too thick and the…read moregrilled pork was juicy and full of flavor. I also really enjoyed their house sauce, I feel like most banh mi shops just put mayo on their banh mi but Cafe Artisan's house sauce includes garlic and some other spices that I thought added a lot of flavor to the overall sandwich. My two recent banh mis were in SF (Saigon, L&G) and this is quite a bit better than both of them; I actually enjoyed eating this sandwich beyond its nutritional value. Overall, the banh mi is quite cheap for downtown Seattle food ($12), portions are large (especially the meat), and it's quite tasty - highly recommend! The cafe is pretty quiet and most people seem to do takeout. The staff are super nice and friendly. There are other sandwiches aside from banh mis here, might try them next time (and will update this review if I do). 4.6/5

Rocco's Pizza in Seattle made my birthday unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. The manager's…read morecomplete lack of professionalism and courtesy was staggering. Upon arrival after 9:00 pm on a Tuesday, we asked to set in one of the booth but they said no because of their strict policy for the booth the used x 3 or more people. Meanwhile, all 4 booth were empty. The kind waitress then offered to move us to the bar booth if something opened up, we kindly agreed and simple went on with our night at different table. While on the table my friend picked up 3 small little flowers from the base and said happy birthday to me, and I put the little flowers on my hair, then I told the waitress I hope you don't mind, my friend gave this little flowers from the table it is my birthday, to which the waitress replied happy birthday, I have no problem with that!. Then comes the manager, and tells me sarcastically, that is a cute flower but it is not yours to take, you should have asked permission anyways, I told him with a smile, but is my birthday and it a tiny flower may I keep it? He stated no, because other costumers will come in and there are no flowers in the table. I told him to replace it with another from another table and he said No give it back now please. It is not yours to take!!! Me, already feeling unwelcome and missed treated, yet still stayed but couldn't even finish my pizza because of how upset I was. I told my friend I wanted to leave. After closing the tab, I walked upfront and waited for my friend. Upon walking outside, the managers comes after us screaming "hey give me back the flower" you took it, at this point I was still walking ahead on my friend and I can hear the manager yelling "she stole it" give it back now, she is a thief, you come here to steal is that it? I repeatedly, told him I didn't take it and even open my purse and told him to come search it, but he stormed back in while insulting and yelling to me IN PUBLIC! - I was deeply humiliated in front of absolute strangers. I didn't see my friend taking the flower either, and if he did, he never gave it to me otherwise, I would have throw it at his face. The luck of hospitality, professionalism, and simply compassion and dignity from this person is Absolutely Unacceptable. I was treated with far more respect and the Four Seasons (and they did give me flowers), than this ridiculous place. It is a shame that the owner would allow someone like this to be the front of the business. And I feel deeply sorry for their employees to have to endure this person as I saw on their eyes the embarrassment they felt. I deserve nothing else but an apology for the way I was treated. I too work in hospitality, I know what is like to provide costumer service providing healthcare and never in my wildest days would I ever treat anyone with such disrespect and unprofessionalism. I recommend this person to be replace or re train. Otherwise it will only affect the business.

Probably my favorite Belltown corner store, and I've been to them all. It's affordable (for a…read moreBelltown corner store; i.e., do your actual grocery shopping at QFC in LQA and pick up last minute stuff at places like this), the staff are courteous and have the patience of saints (more on this later), they sell pretty much everything I would want to buy in terms of snacks, they allow dogs, and they even accept Apple Pay. The only real "downside" (though it doesn't bother me personally) is that it's very much a Third Avenue corner store. There's usually no shortage of street people and sketchy characters in and around the store. Nothing harmful or dangerous at all, but it's slightly outside the natural comfort zone of middle class white folks who are unaccustomed to city life and socioeconomic diversity.
