Stoneburner

Stoneburner is a real GEM! Went for a birthday for our first time, and their service was impeccable and super friendly. They gave us free champagne and an appetizer to celebrate the bday! That was very (pleasantly) unexpected. Their gnocchi and beef tartare were absolutely delicious! We will order those again next time!

I was late to our reservation by 10 minutes & the host was so sweet! She even sat us inside when I asked even though the reservation was for outside. The food was so amazing & came out so quickly. 2 appetizers and 2 mains, we were in and out in less than an hour (no one rushed us out either). Truly an amazing experience and what we needed for a night in Seattle

Hands-down, the best dinner, and I’ve had in Ballard in a long time. This place is always good, and the drinks are always top-notch. But, last night my partner and I were on a quest for a steak. We went to Asadero initially, they had a very long wait, so we put our name on the waitlist and ventured back out. Right around the block we sat at the bar at Stoneburner. On a Monday night there weren’t very many people inside, it was nice and cozy. Monday nights are the way to go. The service was friendly, the other patrons were warm and inviting. But our food was the highlight of the entire experience. We ordered the beef tartare, and it was the best beef tartare we’ve ever had in our lives. It’s so good. If you like beef tartare, then order it here. We ordered the carrots, the Delmonico dry aged steak and I am still nawing on the bones from that steak. What a delightful surprise. I knew their Italian food was delicious. Their pizza is amazing. But, the steak was an awesome surprise. Go eat here. Order everything on the menu.

Fantastic and knowledgeable service, great aesthetic inside, and right next to the Ballard farmers market. What’s not to love? Will be going back. Make sure you snag a reservation so you don’t have to wait, but if you forget you can always browse the market if you go on a Sunday. Parking options somewhat limited but this section of Ballard is super walkable.

We explored this Italian Mediterranean gem in the Ballard neighborhood. From the small plates, we indulged in the grilled artichoke and oyster mushrooms, which set the stage for what was to come. The star of the show was undoubtedly the pacherri pasta, its circular shape reminiscent of calamari. The crumbly chili pieces added a pleasant kick, although I personally could have used a bit more heat. Now, for the vegetable dishes, they were described as grilled or roasted, but in my opinion, they leaned more toward a charred flavor profile, which wasn't to my taste. However, my friend adored the charred bits, and I'm glad someone enjoyed them. For cocktails, I had the Cozumel cooler martini, which I loved! The icing on the cake was everything was reasonably priced. A unique dining experience with a few surprises, but overall, a great find in Seattle, made even better by the pleasant outdoor and indoor seating options.

Had a wonderful dinner here. They have a variety of cocktails, all are very good! Love their small dishes more than their main courses. Their small dishes are unique and tasty. Recommend crispy olives, squash blossoms, beef tartare, and charred broccoli. It’s hard to find a street parking around the restaurant. No dress code. Had better make a reservation.

If you're in the mood for some delicious Italian food, look no further than this restaurant. I was impressed by the rustic, woody ambiance, which sets the perfect tone for a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience. But let's get to the food - it's simply amazing. We tried the burrata and grilled artichokes in appetizers, the flavors are fresh and vibrant. Next up is the pizza, the cheese pizza is mouthwatering, with the perfect balance of cheese and sauce, and the nettles pizza is not as delicious but still pleasing. The staff who served us was knowledgeable and attentive, and she happily answered the questions we had about the menu. She even recommended some delicious mocktails that perfectly complemented our meal.

Came for brunch! Ambiance was really nice and the waitress was super cool, so that was great! We got the Rigatoni, the Chitarra, and the Charred Broccoli. We also got an Orchard Toddy and it was strong. The Rigatoni was great, the Chitarra was basically like a pretty good carbonara, and I enjoyed the Broccoli! Overall it was all pretty good, but I would probably only return if someone else wanted to come. Not to knock it tho, it's definitely worth a try, and I can see why it's a favorite brunch spot in Ballard.
