Drinks Good, Food Questionable
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The drinks were good, but I would advise against getting the chicken tenders. I was quite surprised to see Cheez-Its on a salad, which was an unusual ingredient choice. The overall food score was a 1, while service and atmosphere both received a 3.

Disappointing Service, Overpriced Drinks
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The bartenders seemed unwilling to do their job and appeared annoyed by customers. There was also a sense of favoritism towards regulars, which made the service feel inconsistent. Additionally, I felt the bartenders tried to overcharge.

Wonderful Bar, Great Food and Staff
Even though the season is over, this bar remains wonderful. I had a great experience with the food, drinks, and staff. It's the best place near T Mobile and Lumen Field. The ownership should really find it.

No Fryer, Outdated Info
I haven’t been in SODO for several years and used to frequent this spot. I grabbed a Lime bike and went there tonight only to find out they don’t have a fryer anymore. I was looking forward to some bar food, specifically a burger and tots. Per the bartender, it’s been 5+ years since they’ve had one. It’s time to update the website and pictures. It clearly states that a fryer is on the menu, and the HH menu. Also, pictures show it as recently as a year ago. 🤔

Cool Games, Steep Drinks, Missed Food
This is a cool place for games for sure. I got 2 doubles of Jack and Coke and it was $80. I thought the dude told me $18 but nope, it was $80. I had also ordered a calzone that I never got because the guy said someone else took it. I'm not sure if the guy charged me for the calzone I never got, but whatever, I wasn't going to argue. $80 seems steep, but maybe they figure people will pay that inside the game anyway. It was a great atmosphere, but I was a little disappointed I didn't get to try the food. It looks like people loved the food, so maybe one day I'll get to come back to try it. But I won't be getting drinks again lol.

Disappointing Experience with Food and Service
My experience at this restaurant was not great. I ordered the nachos, and they looked like they had been sitting out for 15-20 minutes before I received them. My friend ordered the chicken tenders meal, and the presentation was ridiculous; it was obvious he was ripped off. Additionally, their happy hour deal wasn’t stated well, which led to us paying more than we should have. Overall, it was not a great experience.

Disappointing Meal and Atmosphere
As soon as we stepped into King Street, I had one thought: we should’ve turned right back around. The place was sweltering, packed with fans fresh from the Hawks game, and the atmosphere felt more chaotic than lively. I’d been here years ago and remembered it being decent, so we decided to stick it out. Big mistake. The moment our food hit the table, I was transported straight back to my grade school cafeteria, where the chicken tenders were lukewarm and the potato salad was a mystery best left unsolved. This potato salad could’ve easily come from one of those industrial silver tubs wheeled out by a hairnet-clad lunch lady. Paying $16 for this sad excuse of a meal was both disappointing and absurd. Now let’s talk about the burger that arrived alongside the melancholy tenders. It was flavorless, dry, and somehow managed to skip basic condiments, no ketchup, maybe a whisper of mayo if you squinted. The presentation? Nonexistent. The chips were still in the bag. At the very least, pour them onto the plate next to the burger to make it look like someone cared. If I owned this bar/restaurant, I’d seriously reconsider the entire food menu. To top it off, the table next to us left behind half a pizza and my friend and I genuinely considered grabbing it and making a run for it. That should tell you everything you need to know. I’m honestly still laughing over the presentation of the meals.

Disappointing Food and Service
My experience at this bar was disappointing. While the atmosphere was cool, that was the only positive aspect. The food quality was extremely poor; the buffalo chicken tenders, priced at $16, resembled microwaved chicken pieces from a grocery store. We also struggled to get sauce and napkins, despite asking multiple times. The drink I ordered, at $14, was child-sized. When we tried to address the issue with the chicken, the waitress offered a meager discount of $1. 64 instead of an exchange. We left and will not be returning.

Delicious Happy Hour in Pioneer Square
King Street was the perfect location to meet up before the opening of the Seattle Art Fair for food and drinks. We ordered from the happy hour menu, so great! The sliders, cheesy garlic bread, King's wings, and Caesar salad were all delicious. The service was friendly and fast. Do not sleep on the King Street when you are in Pioneer Square.
