My family came to Washington over the past weekend and suggested we do a brunch. We were told this…read moreplace was very popular for Sunday brunches. We made reservations but ended up showing up close to their transition to dinner. Due to the lateness, it became more of an intimate setting for us. Also because of the lateness, many of the high-demand brunch options were either sold out or very limited upon arrival, particularly the Catfish & Grits and Grilled Pork Chop. I did not have the pleasure of trying those meals because I am vegetarian, and I elected the Root Vegetarian Hash with fruit. This meal was a 5 out of 5 for me. The perfectly seasoned squash, acorns, and yams combined to inflict a Killer Instinct - "Ultra Combo" on my palate that almost put me in a food coma. Hahaha! I'm such a nerd. But yes, it was that good! A lot of my family and friends raved about their food. Portion sizes were above average and a bit pricey, but everyone seemed overly pleased with their selections with one caveat. One of my friends said Unc's Wings were average and on the salty side. I forewarn you this is coming from someone who is a wing connoisseur. The customer service was top-tier. Parking at the time that we showed up wasn't too bad. We parked in the surrounding neighborhood and were lucky enough to find a spot right in front of the restaurant. Over-top-tier experience, I share my return.

I had been to Communion before and was excited to finally take my husband. The menu had changed up…read morea little since my last time but everything was still really good so no complaints there. It is a small spot (sorta) so you kind of get in where you fit in. We ended up at the bar and honestly it worked out perfectly. Our bartender was friendly, engaging and just made us feel right at home. Another staff member came through at some point and was equally as kind. The service all around was great. Now let me talk about the food because that cabbage had no business being that good. I know that sounds random but it was my favorite thing and I did not see that coming. The mac and cheese was delicious, the fried chicken was really good, and my husband was all about the rice and black eyed peas (surprisingly). I also ordered a non alcoholic drink and even though I cannot remember the name it was really good too. The only minor thing was that one of the items, I think it was the hush puppies or cornbread, came out a little lukewarm. They mentioned it can be hard to keep that particular item hot, and flavor wise it was YUM so it was not a dealbreaker. Everything else comes out fresh as it's cooked so just know timing can vary by dish. It did get crowded toward the end and they politely let us know people were waiting outside. They handled it with so much grace it did not feel uncomfortable at all. I will definitely be back. Already curious about what will be on the menu next time.

I was craving for crunchy fried chicken and this hit the spot. They were quick to prepare my order. The two side sauce you get are very small, but you get free daikon radish and slaw. The chicken itself was on the drier side but with sauce it was perfect. Overall a solid fried chicken spot

So glad I found this place on a whim. Was craving some wings and it was right by our hotel with…read moregood ratings. We went by and saw the vibe so decided to give it a change. We sat in a booth, the inside was so cool, clean and the server was so chill. We knew we're going to order fries and wings. The only qualm I had was with the loaded wings was that they stayed "blue cheese" not blue cheese dressing or sauce. We were expecting crumbles or something along that nature. The melted cheese and blue cheese sauce made it very wet and hard eat... you had to dig... don't get me wrong it was still good. Just misleading. The wings were good they do tell you that it's going to be a wait and they are small. And they are. So don't be surprised, make sure you order more or you will be hungry. I would go back! It was fun And the wings were yummy!

This is not a review I ever expected to write…read more For a long time, I genuinely enjoyed Vindicktive. I brought friends, family members, colleagues, employees, and business associates here on a regular basis--sometimes multiple times per week. The food, especially the wings, is excellent and one of the main reasons we kept coming back. Unfortunately, the customer service experience became impossible to ignore. What started as an occasional issue eventually became a consistent pattern of feeling unappreciated as customers. The more we supported the business, the more it seemed that basic hospitality, professionalism, and conflict resolution were lacking. Instead of feeling welcomed, many of us began leaving with the impression that our presence was tolerated rather than valued. What is most disappointing is that this isn't based on a single bad interaction. It is the accumulation of experiences over time, involving multiple visits and multiple people from my circle who reached the same conclusion independently. I believe every business has difficult days. Every employee can have an off moment. What separates great businesses from average ones is how they respond when concerns are raised. In my experience, there appears to be very little interest in understanding customer concerns or resolving issues in a way that leaves people feeling respected. As a Seattle business owner myself, I understand how difficult it is to operate in today's economy. That is precisely why customer relationships matter so much. Every customer chooses where to spend their hard-earned money, and every business has a responsibility to make people feel welcomed, appreciated, and respected. The unfortunate reality is that Vindicktive currently feels less like a professionally managed business and more like an environment where personal dynamics often overshadow customer experience. Whether intentional or not, that perception has caused many people in my circle to stop visiting altogether. I take no pleasure in leaving this review. In fact, I delayed writing it for quite some time because I hoped things would improve. The food remains very good, and I genuinely wanted to continue supporting this establishment. My hope is that ownership reads this, not as an attack, but as an opportunity. Great food can bring people through the door, but great service is what keeps them coming back. Until meaningful changes are made, I can no longer recommend Vindicktive to friends, family, colleagues, clients, fellow downtown residents or visitors from abroad visiting for the 2026 World Cup or any other occasion that our great city host in the foreseeable future. 1 Star Review I am an Official Elite Yelper.

I was genuinely sitting there eating a chicken rib and even a chicken butt at one point, which was a little wild, but honestly kind of part of the experience. Just order only wings if you don't want to eat chicken butt. Flavor wise, it's pretty solid overall. The chicken is crispy and well seasoned, and it definitely hits if you're craving Korean fried chicken. Service wise, the staff seemed super busy, so don't really expect much in terms of friendliness or attentiveness it felt more like a fast-paced operation than a sit-down, pampered experience. My only real complaint is the price. Everything is good, but it feels a bit expensive for what you're getting. Still, if you're there for the chicken itself, it does the job.

Good food, good atmosphere, but on the pricey side…read more Servers are hit or miss depending on who you get. They're usually busy so don't expect a super friendly interaction. I'm content just getting my food and don't really care about that, but some people might get taken aback by the demeanor. Protip is to order the wings instead of a whole chicken if you want consistency.

It also only had 2 kinds of Vietnamese cold cut meats, which I didn't mind, but it needed more in there. There's a super thin layer of mayo and pate I think. Bread was very fresh! I give 3/5 Kimchi fried rice had good kimchi flavor. Portion size was large. 10 piece fried chicken (wings) was good. The skin was way fattier than I would've liked and it could've been fried longer to help melt some of the fat out and make it crunchier. It was super hot, fresh, and juicy though. Radish was free. It came with sauce but only on the side. Personally, I would want to try other korean fried chicken places to compare before coming back here again Waffle fries come with either ranch or ketchup. Large portion sizes! For all we ordered, it was around $55. Great price for the portions and variety imo. Service was outstanding as I mentioned. One older woman worker felt like she was my auntie. She refilled our water and checked in on us despite this being a place where you go up to order.

Flavor wise, it leaned more toward the sweeter side and was not very spicy. We ordered the full-size fried chicken, which allows you to choose two flavors. You can add a third flavor for $1, while the half order comes with only one flavor. We chose Golden Honey, a savory sweet sauce, and the Kalbi sauce, which has a Korean BBQ profile with a sweet soy flavor. For my taste, both sauces were slightly on the salty side. The server was very friendly and checked in on us regularly. They also let us know that we could ask for more pickled radish at any time, which was a nice touch. Also not going to lie, I don't know how it feel for a restaurant specializing in Korean Fried Chicken and is also selling Vietnamese Banh Mi. It made me question the quality of the fried chicken.
