Don't waste your money!
by Mijo
Owner would not honor gift certificate for $20 given for terrible service for a previous dining experience. Owner was very rude and has no concept of good customer service. Given these tough economic times it is hard to believe that a business owner would care so little about his customers. Not worth the money and should be out of business.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Terrible customer service, average food, overpriced

Nice Reprieve
by johncleaver
A nice reprieve from most dining options in Seattle. The service can be a little shakey but the food, decor, atmosphere, wine, drinks etc are traditionally excellent. They tend to use local ingredients so their menu changes often which is nice. 35th St. Bistro is becoming a classic Seattle restaurant and bistro. They have a new lounge which is ok - their dining room is where you want to grab lunch or dinner. I hear they have a very nice yet busy brunch on the weekend.
- Pros: Food, wine, atmosphere - overall experience is excellent
- Cons: Service hot and cold

Very boring food!!
by rookie_food_critic
I was really excited to go to 35th St Bistro after reading the reviews, so I made reservations for my husband's birthday. I needn't have bothered, it was a weeknight and there were hardly three tables that were occupied. That is why I was so surprised when it took them 20-25 minutes to bring us bread.
The service was slow over all, but I didnt mind. It went along well with the music and ambience. Now the food- I ordered the beet salad which was good and my husband ordered the scallops which was flavorful. For our entrees, I ordered their pan roasted chicken.. it looked yummy but it was absolutely lacking any flavor. It was actually hard for me to eat the whole thing. I felt like I was eating boiled chicken. My husband ordered the rabbit which was just alright, again, lacking flavor.
And for dessert we had the fruit tart which was once again average.. Overall it was a disappointment. Totally not worth the $110 I spent on both of us. I saw a lot of people having their burger and fries.. maybe that is their specialty!!
- Pros: good ambience
- Cons: food, parking
