    Charlotte is a great, almost-hidden gem in this part of Seattle. The food is top-notch. We're vegan, and we're impressed with the number of vegan options available. You can't beat the view, either. We're locals. This was our first time, but we'll be back.

    Back for the Sunday Brunch Buffet! The crab, shrimp and oysters were all delicious and high quality. Great omelette and pasta station options too. The prime rib was ok, along with the ham, but nothing special. Best to eat seafood at a seafood restaurant! Get reservations well in advance!

    4 old friends getting together for the holidays. Our server/bartender was efficient, knowledgeable & kind. The halibut never disappoints. I love that I can have a “dingy “ of chowder because I want to try more than one! It was a beautiful view & a lovely evening.

    Really excellent food across the board that met every dietary requirement of our team of 16. Laid back service, yet the right amount of attention when you needed it. That is hard to pull off with a large group and they were gracious and accommodating to boot. Fun but not to loud background music mix. We will definitely be back for more this great food and vibes!

    Neb was incredibly cozy and great for date night. There were quite a few larger groups and so it was a bit noisy, but it made the ambiance festive and lively. The food was quite good and the staff was incredibly charming.
