    Came here while visiting Washington, and this place has a unique aesthetic with creative cocktails…read moreto match. We arrived without a reservation but were seated at the bar fairly quickly. The bartender next to us was incredibly friendly and offered excellent drink recommendations. The drinks are on the pricier side, but the quality, presentation, and overall atmosphere make it worth a visit if you're in the area. The bar staff were kind, attentive, and helped make for a great experience.

    My experience at Deep Dive was unfortunately overshadowed by the service…read more I'll start with the positives because they're deserved. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. The space is elegant, unique, and lives up to the photos. I also want to recognize the manager, who was polite, professional, and kindly explained that reservations were required. I completely understand and respect that policy. Unfortunately, my interaction with the bartender before speaking with the manager was the complete opposite. As I tried to get her attention, I felt like she repeatedly looked at me with annoyance and made me feel unwelcome. Rather than simply explaining the reservation policy herself, she went to get the manager instead. She had a problem with Hispanics. She refused to engaged at all. The way I was treated left me feeling uncomfortable and embarrassed, especially as someone who was genuinely excited to visit. A beautiful venue can only go so far when the hospitality doesn't match. I would have happily accepted that reservations were required if I had simply been treated with basic kindness and respect from the start. I truly hope this was an isolated incident because the location itself is stunning, and the manager handled the situation professionally. Unfortunately, because of my interaction with the bartender I've added in the photos, I don't see myself returning. Sadly they have a Prejudice bartender.

    Who doesn't love a cheeky cocktail and a snack on a Friday night? The Fog Room definitely…read moredelivered! The rooftop view is fantastic, and the ambiance was chef's kiss--especially since it surprisingly wasn't super crowded for a Friday night! We had the crispy calamari, their version of an espresso martini with burnt caramel, and a glass of wine. One thing to keep in mind: the prices are definitely pretty steep. But honestly, between the views, atmosphere, and overall experience, it was still a great Friday night out! Definitely one to add to your list if you're looking for rooftop vibes in Seattle!

    Expensive drinks, bad service, mediocre views. Don't bother…read more I only visited because I was staying at the hotel (The Charter Hotel, Hilton Curio Collection), which charges a $25/day destination fee that includes a $25 food and beverage voucher to use at the Fog Room or the first floor Cinder + Salt restaurant (which is a better place to spend your voucher). I stopped by around 4 PM on a weekday, shortly after opening. There was no one at the host stand or at the bar; the place looked deserted, except there was one patron sitting nearby with a drink. Bartenders / servers appeared after a few minutes. The cocktails are $19-$25 and all fruit-focused. Literally every one has fruit in it -- strawberry, apricot, raspberry, passionfruit, peach, cherry, etc -- except the espresso martini. Wines are $16-$25. Both drink menus tend towards the upper end of those price ranges. The paper menu was in bad shape, with tears and water marks. For a high end bar, I want to see better cocktails and a menu that isn't falling apart. Service was very slow. I had to go to bar to get the server's attention because he was chatting with other staff. The prosecco ($16) and Smoke Signal cocktail ($20) were ok. The cocktail was even fruitier than I expected -- bright red and with 3 raspberries on top. This is not a serious bar. Views were ok, but also blocked by nearby buildings. Watch out for the sun setting and blinding you.
