Thackeray - Seattle

We made a last-minute reservation for New Year's Eve and it turned out to be a great choice. The atmosphere was fun and energetic, with a great bar and entertainment, but still a cool environment inside. The waiter was friendly and accommodating. The food was good overall, with some dishes better than others. We particularly enjoyed the beet salad and ginger cocktail. The special, a filet and potatoes, was delicious, and the kids loved their pizza. The pasta was just okay. We would definitely come back for some of their special dishes in the future.

Really pretty good, even with a menu that is on the easier side (focused on pizzas, pasta and a few curly dishes.) in this case they suspect that their vision of an Italian meal fits into this vision, they will not be disappointed with everything from the roasting garlic baguette to a noble stone salat to uncle vinnnn's calzonesack oriented. the waiting staff had to run a little to serve the Friday night crowd, but they are hard working and well trained. the zeppoli (hot doughnuts) were a nice dessert offer, although I would have decided to spend a minute more in the frit to develop the crust and finish the opaque interiors. the ambiente is a nighborhood industrial and the volume is medium high. worth mentioning is the wine selection of the connected wine bar (claret.) the selection is well cured, with decent worth and a double price on each bottle, depending on whether they buy to drink or take away there. fiasco must not send her foodie friends into the Rapture, but they will appreciate the direction and hipster-friendly mood. they should check it.

Great central location to meet friends/family from different neighbours in seattle. eating was very good. I have made some days in advance a reservation by open table and arrived about 30 minutes early. my man and I said we could have a drink at the bar until the rest of our party showed up, but I could see that it was early enough that the restaurant was pretty quiet. the host went back to the widest corner of the restaurant, the table closest to the bathroom (real! and asked it was ok. I waited for my man to return to the table and he was so surprised to see me right in front of the toilet door! we have asked to relocate the host twice and remember that we have a reservation. he seemed confused and I don't understand why they would put us in the back corner of the claret wine bar. I asked if we could possibly sit in the main part of the restaurant, maybe close to the window, and he said he would check it out. apparently 3 tables were open to our group size. it is a well-known practice that the restaurants try to fill the least desirable tables first, who will accept this situation? apologise them, but I think that a guest who plans to dine there, as in one who makes a reservation, should be offered a better location than one who just walks on the street.

Our waiter, Tristan, was amazing and friendly towards us the whole night. The food was great as well as the wine! Made for a perfect dinner!

We had to wait a long time to have our order taken. And again for the food to come. My husband loved his meatballs. My $25 seafood pasta was bland . For fine dining prices I was expecting much more. I would try again bit with a different dish choice. I am sad to complain but think honest feedback is important.
