It was perfect for us with a commute from the eastside. We wanted to cross the bridge before the rush hour peak and, after a busy day, we wanted a good dinner - good service and with a minimum of fuss! Easily done: parked in the garage. Elevator up to dinner. Elevator up to our box!

Good food and great service. The oven roasted Brussel sprouts were really tasty. Drinks were pricey.

What a lovely option for a relaxed and elegant pre-concert dinner. The cuisine was selectively curated, beautifully plated, and delivered with a smile. The local Albacore was excellent with a light cherry infused spritzer. It was hard to resist the apple cranberry cobbler topped with homemade vanilla ice cream, which was clearly popular. The ambience was restful, minimalistic but spacious, with a high ceiling and rays of sunshine softly beaming through a wall of glass windows. Dinner was finished in time to attend the pre-concert lecture, which was followed by a truly memorable performance by the Seattle Symphony in a gorgeous hall. What is not to love about this fantastic evening. I will return.

Well, Muse has finally started moving back to its old self. The ambience is still drab, grey and unwelcoming, but the food can’t be beat. They got rid of the General Manager they hired after letting the best General manager go. Whoever made that bonehead decision made a huge mistake. Getting rid of the small plates was also an unwise move. But, we tried Muse one more time, only because the Chef asked us to - and he does such an incredible job with his dishes. Ask for Strawberry Waldorf salad- not on the menu, but call ahead. Chef will make it. One of best I’ve ever had!! Chef Daniel is why we return to Muse - and the owners should make Ragys the permanent General Manager. He is the best!! Great service, incredible food makes it easier to overlook the disastrous remodel - Subscriber since 1986 Kim Hunter

We were so delighted to get a last minute table before Dvorak! Upon arrival, we were seated in quite possibly the tiniest table for my 6’8” partner. We squeezed in, nonetheless. The ambiance was fairly blasé. Our server was not overly friendly and informed us that they were out of bread. Every table around us had bread and butter. She rarely checked in on us. The person clearing tables was intrusive and kept coming over to take things from our table literally as we finished. When we did finish our meal, it took the server over 30 min to check on us and so, we were unable to order dessert because the show was going begin shortly. She was very attentive to other tables, but not ours. Now, the food. We had the roasted vegetables and corn fritters to start. The vegetables were placed on our table almost raw and cold. The sauce was delicious but the garlic was undercooked. The fritters were the saving grace: absolutely delicious. For our entrees, we chose scampi and ahi tuna. The scampi was cold, under seasoned and had chopped tomatoes which was so off putting. Shrimp was overcooked. Garlic undercooked, again. The tuna was fine. The sears were inconsistent, so I gave the overcooked pieces to my less particular companion. All in all, I will NEVER come back, poor service, mediocre food and a boring ambiance.

Wonderful place for a relaxed meal prior to the symphony. Easy to be out in enough time to hear the pre-concert lecture as well.

Excellent food and service. A semi-small plate approach that is great for two people who enjoy sharing. A convenient dining option before a symphony performance.

I enjoyed my meal although portions of the crab cakes were very small— only two small crab cakes are served with that order. I don’t think the meal was worth the money even though most restaurants in Seattle charge too much. I enjoyed the fresh vegetables (which I had to order à la carte since the main dish comes with nothing else) which were varied enough and tasted fresh. No complaints with the service as waitstaff were all very nice and friendly.
