To begin with,Daniel’s Broiler is NOT a top-notch steakhouse at all,especially not in Seattle;the Metropolitan Grill has the best steak in town.Anyway,my first and final visit to Daniel’s Broiler was last night;my girlfriend and I were celebrating our birthdays so we invited ten of our closest friends for a dinner.I was disappointed immediately after arriving at Daniel’s Broiler with their valet parking employees and rules;I had a better customer service in Les Schwab a day before.I was mad when I was told that I have to pay $5 for parking or to go somewhere else and park my car myself.I was embarrassed that my friends will have to go through the same regime so I had to organize parking for everyone before they arrive,I paid for each car.The second disappointment was our small table; there were 12 of us sitting at the table for six.It was hard to move and impossible to fit all plates,glasses,and vine bottles at the same time.The food quality is average,I had a better steak from Costco,and for this reason prices are absolutely ridicules,too high for nothing.Atmosphere was fine except for the air-conditioner blowing ice-cold air directly at our heads,I wish I had my hat for skiing last night;everyone was freezing,after complaining to our food server the air-conditioner stopped for a moment.Our food server was nice but semi-professional and the biggest disappointment came from him at the end of our dinner.At some point he asked me what is the occasion and I told him that we are celebrating our birthdays.Through my experience from previous birthday parties at Hilton and Four Seasons I was expecting that he will come back with a small cake or bottle of wine on house,and this felt really nice,but the best joke ever was that he brought as two little empty plates with small candles burning in the center.For a moment a felt so embarrassed and everyone was stunned,but then I started to ironically laugh to break the silence. Wow...that was so creative - thank you.
Pros: Live piano music
Cons: parking, food, ambience, too cold.
