Awesome service during fire alarm!
My experience at the restaurant was made exceptional by our server, Breck. Despite a fire alarm causing an evacuation, Breck remained super nice and handled the situation with grace. He even offered us a glass of bubbles while we waited outside.
It was a super nice experience, largely thanks to Breck!

Charming Decor, Delicious Pizza, and Great Wine
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The pistachio colored decor was very cool, and the views all around of the city offered a beautiful backdrop, even with the privacy provided by the fauna. Fresh flowers on the table added a lovely touch.
The pizza was super delicious, and the service was impeccable. I also appreciated the eclectic and affordable wine selection.

Good Vibes, Okay Pizza
I stopped by for happy hour and had a great experience with the vibes and atmosphere. The drinks were good, and the overall atmosphere was enjoyable. However, the pizza was just okay.
While they offered unique flavors, the ham pistachio pizza was bland, and the breading lacked crispiness and flavor.

Underwhelming Experience, Disappointing Food
My overall dining experience was underwhelming. Despite having a reservation, we were seated in a mostly empty restaurant right next to the door. The lights were flickering or shutting off in our section.
The appetizers were solid, though the burrata seemed to necessitate purchasing focaccia, which was an interesting choice. However, the potato pizza was far from hitting the mark; it had a burnt bottom that was impossible to cut and lacked the flavors we ordered. There were no check-ins on service, yet a 22% gratuity was automatically included.
We ended up boxing most of the pizza to take home and improve it ourselves. We won’t be planning on returning.

Service Charge Confusion at Willmott's Ghost
My experience at Willmott's Ghost was marked by confusion regarding their new service charge policy. They've added a 22% service charge to all dine-in checks, which is retained 100% by the house. They state that gratuities are not expected, and any left are split only amongst hourly employees.
I believe they should simply increase the damn prices, as this feels like daylight robbery.

Unpleasant Bartender, Overpriced Drinks
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing due to the unpleasant bartender. My husband and I stopped by hoping to get to the Deep Dive Bar, but the bartender on our visit last night was just "unpleasant. " We attempted to make small talk, and the place was empty, so it wasn't as if she was busy.
We did not feel welcome at all. We paid $63 for 2 drinks, and they charge a 22% service charge, which is probably why the bartender didn’t care about being nice. We ended up going to Deep Dive afterward, where the bartenders were nice and even gave us recommendations without us asking.

Worst food experience, overpriced and awful
My experience at this restaurant was terrible. The food was the worst I've ever had; it was greasy, stale, and burnt. I'm unsure how this place received its reviews, but it's also overpriced and simply awful.

Disappointing Seattle Experience
My experience at this restaurant felt like Seattle was being too Seattle. Despite having a reservation and the restaurant being empty, our table wasn't ready. I was surprised by the 22% service charge, the highest I've ever encountered.
The Margherita pizza was priced at $32 and was the size of a medium pizza elsewhere, and we were even given scissors to cut it ourselves. While the cool interior and vibe were pleasant, certain aspects made me not want to return.

Overpriced with Aloof Service
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. We found it to be an overpriced restaurant with aloof service. The bill for four adult beverages, two cups of milk, and a lemonade, along with a pepperoni pizza, came to over $235, which included a mandatory 22% gratuity.
This gratuity felt unwarranted as we hardly saw our server. The hefty bill would have been justifiable if the food had been memorable, but unfortunately, none of what we had was memorable. This lack of memorable quality made the experience disappointing.
I would definitely recommend spending your hard-earned money elsewhere.
