    Sarah waited on us and her service was superb. Kendra was our host and bartender and she knocked it out of the park with cocktails. Perfect Manhattan & Espresso Martinis. The Chicken and Pork tenderloin dishes were delicious. Value for the experience was above expectations. I’d highly recommend this restaurant to my family and friends. Bob & Dotty

    The perfect Seattle neighborhood restaurant. After all these years, the menu remains fun, and fresh with specials and old standard seamlessly offered.

    What a great gem in Seattle. One of my favorite spots. Not fancy or trendy instagramable type of restaurant… instead tasty and solid food… with incredible service. Went for dinner, but weekend brunch is also at a different level!

    This is one of the greatest restaurants I've ever eaten in and I've been in France for a total of three months of my life. I can't believe that in a little semi side street within Seattle there is this little restaurant seemly run by people who love you and love each other. I ordered everyone of the desserts with my two daughters and we ate them all. So great that someone figured out that a limited menu that you can serve every item extra extraordinarily well is better than serving everything to everybody. And they always have ice cream.!! I live in Colorado but when I come back, I'm coming to this restaurant Tilikum Place Cafe!!
