    I brought two of my friends to dinner here last night and the chef was the host. He was really wonderful and helpful with selections of our meal and desserts. We couldn’t decide which dessert to have so he brought four of them out for us to try. He was very charming and we had a wonderful time. The food is absolutely delicious and I love being able to go to a restaurant that I can eat. Anything they just one of my favorite places to go in Seattle. I would highly recommend it and you definitely need reservations.

    Wow - Jeannie wow. It is hard enough to get a reservation - let alone telling everyone how AMAZING it is and worth the wait! We had a 630 reservation (earlier than my preference but what they had available). We were seated promptly by several extremely professional and friendly hosts. I was not aware of the “show” and was extremely surprised when a manager asked (proactively) not to take photos of the anticipated performer. The performer was INSANE - I mean - wow - I sat there shoving my face full of food - and her strength and coordination - and and and. But that aside and performance being grand - nothing compared to the service! Jeannie - you are a god of service! We ended up staying hours - literally just to hang with Jeanie and be so grateful for her knowledge and awesome personality! We ordered a Mecca of foods that didn’t really mesh - and she still somehow managed to use her expertise to course them lovely. There’s a reason The Pink Door has been a local destination for so long - excellent food paired with professionals like Jeanie! Thank you!!! We’ll be back! C&K

    It seemed like our server had a lot of tables to Handel so some times she was mia . Also the “Service charge seemed a bit much considering our server made it clear she only got 20% of the service charge and only the tip went to her.

    Bateau is certainly not an ordinary restaurant. Their concept is built on using the entire animal. We opted ala carte which allowed us to choose the many different cuts of beef. Best bet is to have dinner early for first dibs in choosing your favorite cut of beef. Once the cut is taken, it will be crossed out on the chalkboard. Cuts of beef picked out by our table were all good choices: Chuck steak, Flat iron and Jacob's ladder. All cooked medium rare and topped with anchovy butter. All of our cuts were excellent in tenderness and flavor. Restaurant spent time in taking our food allergy seriously and made accommodation. We were served a complimentary salad in question. Both salads were good and refreshing. We preferred the Bateau salad for the unique ingredients. Mashed potatoes and frites were also good. Waitstaff was pleasant and knowledgeable. Went over the cuts of beef a couple of times. Service was attentive and efficient. Will be back to try other cuts of beef.
