- DDanielleGrand Rapids / Western Michigan •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe were looking for a cozy place to eat on a rainy Seattle evening and Single Shot did not disappoint. The food was excellent. Craft cocktails were well balanced. Service was also on point. We noticed several regulars rolling in throughout our dining experience, all who were greeted warmly from the team at Single Shot. Always a good sign!! We will definitely be back!More infoSingle ShotPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Capitol Hill / First Hill•4.9

- JJSeattle / Eastern Washington •10 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoELDR is a welcome, new dining experience to the neighborhood. We visited two weeks after its formal opening. The char, smoke and service are core to the scheme... and this scheme is working. Our table, served family style, ordered an initial bread service, each listed vegetable, except for sunchokes, and three entrees: sable, sausage, and gnocchi. Best dish: the sable served over chard had a perfect char and sauce. Runner ups: the cabbage and also the butternut squash. The latter has a spicy kick. Regret: Not ordering the sunchokes. Oh well, there's a next time. Pro tip: Order a bread service to sop up the delightful sauces. We ordered a second service to do just that... and inspired a trend with the table next. Last, the dining chairs are super comfy. Get your friends/family organized and reserve a table.More infoEldrPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Ballard•4.9
