This is one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. My sister and I had dinner here before we went to the theater. Service was great. We ordered the lamb shank and pork chop confit. Both were delicious. Our server was wonderful. He knew the menu and answered out questions. The restaurant has a wonderful ambience. Everything is so well done.
