Fog Room - Seattle

COVID-19 version Fog Room was probably a little different than traditional, so it felt a little quiet, but if there was slightly louder music to give some more mood to the ambiance, it would have been fantastic! Add some spice to the environment given people can't really talk to one another, and the place is a winner.

For a “rooftop bar” we were given a terrible table right by the front door with zero view. Our server was not very friendly, and we only ordered two cocktails which took almost 30min to get to us. I typically don’t have an issue with 20% service charge being included, however the service we received was not worth the price we paid. All in all 2 out of 5

A few okay views but mostly the view is of the buildings across the street. Drinks are okay but not worth a special trip.

The service was absolutely amazing!! It was so relaxing and such a cute date night spot. The manager came by to check in on us and was so sweet. At no fault of the restaurant the charcuterie board was not our personal taste. It was not the standard type of meats and we personally didn’t like the taste of them. It was not a big deal to us, we figured we just ordered the wrong thing and would know not to order it the next time. The manager stopped by and wanted to make sure we were happy and insisted that he would take care of it and removed it from the bill. Top notch service and care that is very rare these days!! We will definitely be back!!

Though the Fog Room is only a few blocks from where I live, my first visit wasn't until the weekend of August 1. What a lovely surprise! It is tasteful, intimate, and because you feel you have entered an area distinctly apart from the rest of the hotel and about 200 feet above street level, it sets a relaxing mood. The wait staff was gracious, attentive, and appropriately respectful of current pandemic responsibilities to each other. Very honestly, I felt welcomed and made to feel as if I were a regular customer. Of course, that made me want to come back! My boulevardier cocktail was perfection, I was given time to enjoy it (them... , and glancing out at some exquisite views over Elliot Bay while being at ease and reflecting during the growing twilight was heaven. My entree was presented nicely, was cooked to accommodate my requests, and was quite tasty. I can foresee this will become a favorite. While I cannot address the hotel itself, the For Room offers friendly, well-organized, luxury-hotel-like hospitality.
