Kristine Gelsano: So far we've had the Pork Belly Sliders, the Flank Steak Succotash, and the Chicken Pesto. The bartenders are fun and make you feel safe to play "roulette" (a fun cocktail option!). Pork loin d'best!
Derrick Deese: Cocktails Are fantastic. Try the swagger. They also have an $1100 cocktail for those feeling themselves that night (but not likely in the morning)
Ashley Yue: One of the best cocktail bars I've been to. The magic was a bit too sweet for me, but the off-menu cocktail I got was on point! Early grey, gin and smokey 👌🏽

Nour Haddad: Great cocktails, music and food! Try the mafalda pasta and honey bear cocktail!
Lori Erickson: You must get the Saganaki- simply delicious. Great cocktails!
Erik Brok: Stylish place with soft jazz, dimmed lighting, and good cocktails
Cooper Marcus: Pork belly sliders and hamburger are truly outstanding - plus the interior design and mixology is top notch
Steve Braband: Ask for a bourbon based drink, get the best old fashioned in history.
Loren Judah: A great speakeasy style experience. No menu, just let them know what you like. Get experimental for a truly unique cocktail.

Marija Bogic: I love this place. The atmosphere is lively and yet with dimmed lights very personal. The bar makes delicious cocktails (French 75 - yummy!) and the food is good. The staff are super friendly.
John Ware: Comfortable atmosphere, excellent service, classic cocktails...and then some.
Jeannie Virden: OMG... what isn't great here! Food, cocktails, and service are all on point! My only complaint is it isn't in Texas!
sunny rahbar: Everything! Cocktails, oysters, delicious boquerones, the radish salad with butter, and finally the medjool dates with olive oil and sea salt. Too good!
Cameron S: Excellent cocktails and food. Get a pre-dinner drink at Barnacle while you wait for your table.
Samantha Jonker: Everything! Best oysters I've ever had, amazing steak tartare and fantastic cocktails

Cocktail Bar · Phinney Ridge · 37 tips and reviews
The Seattle Times: Outside of Ballard, the best bar to grab a cocktail up north is Oliver's Twist. And at $6 a cocktail, it still offers one of the best deals for artisanal cocktails. Happy hour 5-7, all day Sunday. Read more.
Kassi Sandstrom: Great cocktails & all day Sunday happy hour. Small bites/tapas menu but no full entrees.
Loren Judah: This neighborhood cocktail lounge has some really great originals and solid classics. Great crew and fun atmosphere for a casual night.

Vietnamese Restaurant · 136 tips and reviews
Carmen: Original cocktails: didn't regret trying Señor Fluffy Pants, paired well with the pâté chaud, fried frog legs, and imperial rolls. Excellent "trip" to Saigon for a Vietnamese French culinary melange
Stove Chops: Excellent pho, great cocktails, great background music, wonderfully relaxed atmosphere!
Silvia Adriana: Great food and good environment. Any Vermicelli plate is tasty and cocktails are very good.
