Good food, rude service (see a trend?)

by heatherderick

My family (a party of 5) had lunch at Kell's today while at Pike's Place market. Most of our entrees were good although the soup of the day (Turkey and vegetable soup) was oddly spicy, like they were trying to add oomph to an otherwise boring soup. What really ruined our meal was the wait/host staff. Our waitress was clearly annoyed by those in our party who were struggling to decide on there meals and beverages, barely smiled and was generally aloof. The hostess completely cleared our table while we were still sitting there socializing-basically saying hurry up and go without saying it. This seems to be a trend with Kell's and we will likely not be back.

• Pros: Wonderful pasties! Good beer selection
• Cons: Aloof staff who try to rush you out of the place!

Best Lamb

by OutlawPaganIrish

I went here on my Birthday and had the Lamb and Irish coffee. It was superb and served with a smile. Awesome place. My date had bangers & Mash and it was correct in all it's splendor. :)

Note: why can't we say ( r a c k ?!) I had the R A C K of Lamb, but the filter won't let it through. Curious.

• Pros: Everything
• Cons: None

this restaurant is a joke!

by berg9201

I went to this restaurant with two other people. We were able to get seated promptly on a nice Saturday night and also were able to get a patio seating. However, the service was extremely slow even though there were not that many customers. The restaurant was half full. The waitress took her sweet ol' time to get us our beverages and did not even ask us if we want any water. All the other restaurants I've been to always serve water regardless. I ordered corned beef and my friends had the lamb special and crab stuffed sole special. The food came out 1 hour later because they ran out and had to thaw the fish (according to the waitress). The food was fine but small portions with huge price. And I don't know what other people are talking about. There really is not much view since it's blocked by another restaurant's patio!
