    a wall of wine bottles in a wine cellar
    Cj Y.

    Almost don't want to share this place because it's such a hidden gem. I love how cozy and hidden it is.. There are plenty of wines to try and most of them are spain, france, etc. Decor is really cute too and they play different music everytime we go. We order food from the next door such as brie sandwich and bring it here to enjoy with wine. We brought our dog and they were super friendly as well! Everyone was knowledgeable with the wines and generous with their service!

    My gal and I absolutely adore this place. South Park is definitely an underrated 'hood within our fair city (but I think the residents prefer it that way). One of the great things about this place is a knowledgeable owner/curator and the fact he focuses ONLY on natural wines. We were in heaven-- the tasting cost is quite reasonable and the bottles are worth the money (albeit not necessarily cheap) because they're next-level bottles. You won't find Chateau Ste Michelle here (sorry?).

    Had a great Happy Hour at El Sirenito!…read more I came with two friends to try their happy hour. It was also Taco Tuesday so HH prices all day for tacos. The ambience is nice - especially out on the patio on a pretty evening. Their inside dining is open to the outside but a good choice if you want a cozier and quieter space and be nearer to the bar area. For starters, we had their chips, salsa and guacamole. Very tasty and exactly what we were craving. We ordered street tacos: *Asada *Cochinita pibil - marinated pork, refried bean, pickled habanero onion *Chicken tinga - marinated chicken, refried bean *Rajas con papa - jalapeño, potato, sauted onion, queso fresco All were so flavorful each with their own unique blend of spices. Two of them had a nice little kick to them too! For drinks, we had the Sirenito house margaritas, one with added Passionfruit. Sooooo tasty! I saw what some of the other diners ordered -- and I can't wait to try the other drinks on the menu! And with the HH discount! Overall, we enjoyed our meal + drinks, the vibe and the staff. They had a lot of other items on their regular menu that looked good so it's definitely a place we will come back to -- happy hour or not -- and a place I'd recommend. Cheers!!

We ordered the fried oyster bites, 3 ordered of the fish taco, and the street taco plate. We also ordered drinks, I got the classic Paloma. The food was overall very flavorful. Our favorite was the fish tacos.

    The second Saturday of every month Nota Bene offers a $5.00 tasting at their winery in South Park,…read moreyes you read right South Park. Who knew people were producing wine in South Park, I didn't until a few months ago. This past Saturday being the second Saturday of the month I decided to grab a friend and head down to South Park to taste their wines. It's in an industrial warehouse so don't expect a cute cozy tasting room but expect to taste next to the equipment and barrels which is always cool. For my $5.00 this past Saturday I was able to taste eight of their wines. I enjoyed three of them the other five were just OK but none made me go OMG this is good. The '05 Syrah, '04 Kestrel and '05 Conner Lee were my favorites that day, each of them different but with a big berry taste, I must have been in the mood for berries Saturday. As we all know everyone's palette is different so you may go and enjoy all eight. Tim the winemaker and Carol his wife were on site to answer any questions you had about their wines, Washington vineyards, or other wineries in the area. They've been making wine for distribution since 2001, prior to that they were what one would consider to be home wine makers. If it's a second Saturday and you're down in South Park check out Nota Bene cellars you might learn something new about wine. The one odd thing to me was before you could taste you had to fork over your $5.00, I know I have to pay but it was a little cold to be forced to pay before having a chance to pretty much look at the wines. Oh and if you decide to buy a bottle like most other vineyards your $5.00 tasting fee will go towards your purchase, I didn't buy anything here.

    I tasted here on July 10, 2010 [Second Saturday]…read more Tasting Fee = $5 9 wines [all reds] were offered at this tasting: - 2007 Una Notte [$32] Grenache is prominent on the nose, Spicy, floral, fruity with a kick. - 2007 Mourvedre [$30] A dark, deep wine, Wonderful mouth feel, Well integrated tannins - 2006 Syrah [$30] A luscious wine Grenache is apparent on the finish, which is very clean - 2007 Syrah There's a pinch of viognier Hints of herbal spices Another dark, complex wine - 2007 Abbinare [$27] Merlot-dominant, Soft and supple Smells of cigar box Silky tannins - 2007 Conner Lee Vineyard [$32] Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant I detected blackberries, pencil lead, vanilla Dark pepper on the finish [from the addition of Cab Franc] - 2004 Kestrel View Estates Vineyard [$27] Wonderful nose Dry on the mid-palate Perfect tannins - 2006 Miscela [$27] Cab Franc/ Cab Sauv blend A broad middle palate Cedar, cassis & black cherries A little tight on the finish - best after 2015 - 2006 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard [$35] A profound wine Focused & balanced Oaky, plus esspresso & blackberries soft, mature tannins Will improve with cellaring, but delicious now In a word, Tim Narby rocks...

    Steve and I came across Wolfpack Cellars for the first time on our second time to Whitecenter…read morePride. We didn't know of it's existence prior and they were all ready and welcoming for the Pride attendees. I don't recall exactly what white wine I picked as far as the name but what I had was very refreshing, lightly fruited like a good white wine is. We had just a small pour and not a full fledged glass (or at least that's how it looked in the plastic cup) but it was so, so good! The folks running the outside counter where orders were placed in the designated drining area for the winery were very pleasant and nice. I'd love to come back, maybe when an event isn't happening and just relax where it's a bit more quiet but the wine was excellent! It also makes the experience more joyful and positive when businesses welcome everyone!

    A Hidden Gem in White Center. Wolfpack Cellars is hands down one of the best neighborhood wine…read morespots around. If you're anywhere near West Seattle, Burien, or White Center, it's worth going out of your way to visit. First off, the vibe is perfect. It somehow manages to feel cozy and intimate while also being a little sexy and elevated, the kind of place you can stop by casually with your dog after a walk or stay for hours catching up with friends over great wine. One of the things that really makes Wolfpack special is the hospitality. One of the owners, James, is always there and always incredibly welcoming and friendly. You can tell how much care goes into the place and it creates such a warm, neighborhood feel. The wine is fantastic across the board. The sparkling rosé is a must-order, it's seriously amazing. We also love their whites and the Syrahs, but honestly you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They also have great non-alcoholic options and frosé, which makes it easy for everyone to enjoy. Another thing I love is how connected they are to the community. You can join the Wolfpack Wine Club for exclusive events, but they also host tons of fun events open to the neighborhood, things like puppy socials, Feather & Pages nights, wine & ice events, and more. It always feels lively without being crowded. It's also dog-friendly and kid-friendly, which is rare for a wine spot and makes it feel like a true community gathering place. Great wine, amazing people, and a vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. Wolfpack Cellars is one of White Center's absolute gems.

    I haven't been to many clubs over the last few years but my sister was singing last night for…read moreGlimmer, so I went over. It was a really pleasant show. We had a reserved table, and the food was pretty good. It wasn't just bar food, but they 'had decent salads and a nice variety to choose from on their menu. The waitress was pleasant and served without being intrusive during the show. The Royal Room is really nice on the inside. They do a lot of swing and jazz there, but it's a pretty small venue. I'ld call it more comfortable than quaint. Parking was a total pita, but the sound mixer was on point and the music was clear for every instrument with nothing over-riding anything else unnecessarily.

    One process improvement since I last came for a show here is that instead of having the host check…read moreevery person in and then lead them to their seat (if reserved), they now put up name placards on the tables and let you find your own seat so the host can keep checking people in. This makes the queue run MUCH more efficiently. However, overall this place has actually gotten worse since my last review. Now, if you make a reservation (necessary for guaranteeing a chair) for only 1 person, they seat you at a high top that faces AWAY from the stage. As in, literally your back is towards the stage. If you rotate your chair, you face an aisle between you and the stage. The aisle is supposed to remain clear, but there is no real way for the staff to keep the area clear from standing-room-only attendees other than nicely asking people to move, with varying success. The venue's suggested solution is a small bench to the side of the stage, which they say you're welcome to move to if you can't see. Problem is, it seats 4-5 people max (fewer if anyone is manspreading) and is open to anyone in the room. The tables are moveable, so at minimum the venue could point them towards the stage. Fwiw none of this is the restaurant /barstaff 's fault. If anything, they seemed to agree that this is not a good setup. (Don't want to go into specifics to avoid getting any employees into trouble) A second issue with the seating is that once you sit down, the staff removes the reservation cards. This means that if you're at one of the high tops, walk in guests will ask you to trade/move spots. Don't agree to move unless you're ok with possibly ending up with no seat at all because it may be that you end up sitting in a seat that was actually reserved by a different person, from which you will be removed when they arrive. It's then up to the person with whom you traded whether or not they're feeling charitable enough to cede back your original seat. Other than the seating problems, I'd give this a 3/5 for acoustics and sound design (accounting for the fact that it's a small converted venue) and a 4/5 for the food (actually pretty good considering that it's a captive audience) TL;DR: Don't bother coming here as a single person unless you completely don't care about the artist at all, or you love the artist so much that you're willing to do anything to see them
