Each time the staff have been so friendly and helpful. Kimchi Pimento Cheese (5/5): the cheese to kimchi ratio is so good. We always make sure to eat every bit of it. Mini Meatball Rice Bowl (2.5/5): it's was overly salty and a pretty small portion even for happy hour Vegan Shin Ramen (5/5): the added vegetables were very fresh and complimented the ramen. I can see myself getting this after a night of drinks. If you're looking for a place with delicious food and great cocktails this is it!

This is a pop up hosted at Janet's Stumbletown, a stone's throw from Ginger & Scallion. This is for an initial two month residency Wednesdays to Sundays 11am to 3pm. First, pack your patience finding street parking in this busy retail & residential area on NW 65th. I was eventually able to find a 2 hour slot nearby. I was the first customer in the door for the soft opening. It was great to see both Janet (owner of both Stumbletown and Chocolat Vitale) and Boss onsite. Orders and payment are placed at the register. Good to see JP and his team also at the kitchen line. Various seating at Stumbletown: bar & counter seating, booths, and as one to three tops flanked with a banquette. Pleasant interior with natural light and a decent soundtrack overhead. I ordered the Caesar salad and the House 8oz sirloin cap steak with mushroom bordelaise. I stuck with water, but other beverages can be ordered separately from the Stumbletown bar. The fries/frites are cooked in beef tallow. The sirloin is prepared with a garlic butter thyme baste. The menu has both 4oz or 8oz steaks and three sauces to choose from. I enjoyed the Caesar salad. The butter lettuce was well dressed with accompanying parmesan cheese shavings and tiny croutons. The frites were topped with the steak slices, thinly sliced mushrooms in the red wine sauce, and garnished with finely minced shallots and chives. As my first meal of the day "brunch", overall this was nicely presented and prepared. Packed full of flavor and left satisfied but not stuffed. Just right and completed in about 45 minutes. Doable if one has to get back to work. Might want to get coffee after to stave off any potential food coma, lol. I'd rate this 4.5, rounded to a 5. Great dining choice with earlier hours that's easier on the wallet in today's economy.

We each ended up getting a sandwich and sharing a large fry. The fries were good especially with the aioli sauce that was included for dipping. I got a chicken parm sandwich. It wasn't mind blowing by any means but it was a good sandwich. This is also one of the sandwiches that was not listed on the old menu. I don't tend to crave sandwiches so I can't give a better review beyond it was good. I would recommend getting the fries though.

We missed happy hour, but the restaurant was nearly full at 7pm, which is always a good sign. We managed to get lucky finding a space across the street on Greenwood Ave after circling for fifteen minutes--Parking in the area generally sucks. The Gainsbourg is a cool spot with a cool vibe, and felt like a neighborhood favorite. I ordered escargot and sauteed mushrooms for a pre dinner snack. Escargot was lacking flavor, but it didn't bother me. Love my snails. The mushrooms were delicious. Ordered steak frites for dinner and the Copper River salmon special. Both were delicious ... Probably my favorite steak frites in Seattle--cooked to medium rare perfection. Fun spot and reasonably priced. We'll definitely be returning to try a few more items from the menu.

This was my second visit to The Maple and I couldn't have been more pleased!…read more Situated in cute, old, little house on Roosevelt way, The Maple is the perfect brunch spot for any get-together. The restaurant was a bit chilly on this winter morning, but they had a fire roaring and warm staff to make up for it. My party ordered two breakfast sandwiches, and one of their classic breakfasts. Everything was great. Their breakfast potatoes are flavorful and plentiful, along with the rest of the meal portions. Each dish came with a small side salad as well. They didn't serve decaf coffee, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the rest of my morning. I'll absolutely be back to spend time at the maple, and would love to check out their back patio in the summer!

Was especially interested in coming after knowing the bar manager (Sarah) has won awards in the industry. We tried: - Apricot Old fashioned $10 - great value! Strong with a hint of apricot. - Classic Martini $11 - it was Martini month when we went so martinis were featured with great prices! Definitely not my fave martini in the city but could not beat this price and it was enjoyable still. - Mezcal drink (I think it was the Sea Senora) $18, I had this and loved it. I'm a fan of mezcal and this was no exception. Great flavors. - Lamb Crepinette $17 on HH, we all enjoyed this! Not too "lamb-y" if that makes sense. - Point Judith Squid Salad - $14 on HH, I really enjoyed this salad as it reminded me of Spain/Portugal, which I'm a huge fan of. The squid was really tender and went well with the beans and olives. Super cute vibes inside and everything is really aesthetic but also great flavor/execution. I already want to go back to try more.
