Jan and I ate here with Audrey and Matt last night and it was quite nice. While the diner atmosphere throws you off a bit, the upscale food and service were fantastic. The 3 course fixed price meal for $30 was brilliant and I felt fair priced for what you were served. The grilled tuna main course cooked raw was succulent. The appetizer crispy pork shank carnitas was a marvelous taste explosion (and everyone else loved their razor clam chowder). Pricey but close to the market and recommended.

Went here last night. A great place for a date with very small tables in tiny enclosed booths. Very intimate for a couple and very Capitol Hill - dim, oddly ornamented (very home-made), with a preponderence of red lighting.

Not that I'm a vegetarian but this is my favorite veggie resturant in Seattle. It's in Greenwood by the 74th Street Ale House. While pricey, it's worth every penny and they serve one of the largest glasses of wine for the money.
