I've been to Local Public Eatery too many times to count. However on April 14, I enjoyed the experience to another degree. Kailey (mgr) and Chris ( bartender) made the experience a special occasion. Many of my visits have been exceptional. Some have been unforgettable and this was one. Thank you to all the staff members who I have met over the years and have become dear to me. read more

Looks like this is a good spot for Amazonians to hang out for lunch or after work for happy hours. I like the ambiance, it is quite modern. The staff here are very nice and friendly. Although I didn't like one thing, I went in there for a team lunch a week ago and we were seated downstairs. After sitting there for about 10 minutes, I started to feel very cold and when I asked them about it, they said that they turn on the heater only for the second floor. They should have mentioned that before we got seated. Coming to the menu, the menu is quite long. They have a gluten-free and vegetarian menu as well. I am kind of a teetotaler but looked like they had quite a lot of options. I got the vegetarian roti and curry plus vegetarian fully loaded crispy potatoes. And for the drink, I got the spritzing image. Everything was decent, wasn't amazing. I wish they had better vegetarian options. On the bottom line, it's a decent place if you are in the area and you want to hang out. The food is just decent, nothing crazy. And please ask them about their heater situation if going to this place in winter. read more

This place was super busy and crazy loud. If you're easily overstimulated maybe skip it. Apparently we hit the time when all the nearby workers jam into the establishment after their shifts. The service was super friendly and understanding. I ordered a beer and we left. It was a little too much for me after a long day of travel. I recommend their selection of local brews! Nicole's choice Pale Ale was spot on. read more

Solid place to have fun with friends. Very friendly staff with a great food and beer selection. Large TVs for games as well in the main room/bar area. read more

I think it would be a great date or celebration spot, but was kind of pricy for the normal meal we were intending. I got the fried chicken ramen which was a was a flavorful spin on the norm and I enjoyed. Also got a boba cocktail was good, though light on the alcohol. Having the popping boba at the top looked nice, but made it difficult to actually get any since by the time they got to the bottom, there wasn't any liquid left to help slurp them up - wish they'd put them at the bottom and had less ice. The wings were lackluster, was expecting them to be a bit more jazzed up beyond standard bar grub. Friend got the deluxe burger (I think) and added an egg, so it's nice to see they do additions. They have an upstairs that looks like it would be a convenient spot for a larger bday dinner or the likes. Overall a trendy spot, but not ideal for a causal dinner. read more

First time coming here and it was great! We came here on a Friday night and got seated immediately despite it being very busy. Ordered a burger and a Moscow Mule. The burger was pretty good, not my favorite but also can't really go wrong with a burger. There were sports games playing on the TVs and music playing as well. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. read more

Had a few brunch cocktails and the perogies. As always, the espresso martinis were delicious and the perogies never disappoint. Our server, Erin was amazing. She was attentive and funny. 10 out of 10...Will be back! read more

Couldn't even get a seat Waited for 5 mins to be seated. Waiter ignored us and no one else was at the front to greet us. No thank you !!!!! read more

Service and food were great! Kris and Chris were amazing! I will definitely be coming back.

I came in, not to busy as the Sun night game between SEA & Rams near the end, maybe fans left.... Game went to OT, got the fans that are still there excited. Unfortunately, Seahawks lost in OT, just happen I am a rams fan so it was fun to observe quietly to see how fans react. After 6pm is when people start coming for dinner as the place filled up on the bar side. - Foods: Above average burger. Burger came out not as hot and juicy. Onion rings were definitely hot! :). The secret sauce is on the salty side, good flavor. They did allow me to change lettuce with arugula, that is a ++. - Service was great, fast and friendly. - Right restaurant & bar for game nights. Plenty of seating, from bar area to dedicated restaurant and even upstairs! I will be back to try other dishes on the menu. read more

We went to Local for the Super Bowl and the atmosphere was great. We could hear the game being called but it wasn't so loud that we count talk. Food and drinks were great! We got the Korean BBQ Bowl and Local Burger and they tasted great. The server we had was attentive and friendly. read more

Excellent atmosphere and service: there's amole seating inside and even outdoors by propane heaters. Servers were super friendly and attentive. Great spot for drinks with a larger group! FOOD 2s: From a sampling of the Diablo burger & nachos, the food was nothing to rave about. At $15+, the burgers could use a level up with brioche buns and mixed greens rather than Taco Bell-like shredded lettuce & unmelted cheese. DRINKS 4s: They have a large selection of beers on tap from Mac & Jack's and Aslan Brewery, to cocktails and even cocktail kits for groups of 6. read more

COVID We walked around to find a place to have dinner that can accommodate a minor and we got to this place. (PS Re:public didn't allow minors. ) The internet is a bit slow inside when we were trying to look up the menu and the menu closes each category to allow only one category to open, not very easy to navigate. I didn't find the menu very interesting, nevertheless we ordered their popular dishes like ramen, Malaysia curry, and grilled cheese sandwich with creamy tomato soup. The ramen soup is quite thick with lots of sesame paste inside. The curry is spicy with blackened chicken but the rice is too mushy. The grilled cheese sandwich is good and the tomato soup is really creamy. Good and friendly service. read more

We visited this location during COVID and the service was really slow. We had to wait outside for 30 minutes to get seated. The Eggs Benedict was very delicious and the seasoning was good. The Local Burger Chicken was good as well. Reasons for Rating: +1 Excellent location and parking (near by garage) +1 Food taste really good +0.5 Customer service +1 Interior/atmosphere +1 Would return/recommend others read more

I always ask for this place when we have a work lunch because its got a little bit of something for everyone and its an easy place for me to get gluten free options (even if their fries arent, something they should consider changing). I wish they had a little more open airflow options or outdoor seating. But thats a trap of the entire neighborhood so I cant be too harsh about that in particular. For about a half dozen times eating here with a half dozen folks each time, Ive only seen a couple of mistakes and they were pretty minor. A solid choice. read more

Had happy hour with coworkers here. Great casual atmosphere and great staff members. A shout out to Lauren for her hospitality! The food is more like 3 stars not in a bad way just nothing mind blowing. The 4 stars is for the entire experience. We were loud and had the best time getting together as we return to work (office). Food review: I had a bunch of wings, it was tasty. The dumplings were ok but coworkers enjoyed it. It is nothing compared to a 'real' Asian restaurant dumplings. The pierogi was ok too. Not bad but not memorable. I also had the crispy duck salad... it was a little too sweet and the duck pieces were very small and couldn't really taste any duck. My co worker had Caesar salad and it had too much dressing. Otherwise, drinks were all great and the overall experience will bring me back again for sure. read more

Came here for lunch with a group recently and really enjoyed it! I ordered the bbq pork rice bowl and it tasted great! The salty pork paired really well with the pickled onions and cabbage. One thing is that it gets pretty loud in here so it can get hard to hear your party when you're talking to them read more

Came here with my husband and kids while in town to celebrate my birthday. The restaurant wasn't very busy, but we were sat in between two full tables, while the other half the room was completely empty -- felt very crowded and uncomfortable. There were at least 6-8 servers working, but the service was not good. We were never given water or utensils. The food was okay, but not worth the price. Cocktail was basic and also overpriced. Pretty dissatisfied that I chose this place for my birthday. read more

I've been coming here for lunch over the last year or so. The food has always been good and they have a nice variety of options from burgers to salads as well as appetizers. I think there's something to satisfy everyone! They have a diverse tap selection and you can get a wide variety of local beers from many great breweries. I wish they had more of a cider selection though. One cider on tap is it and one in a bottle. The one complaint I have is the fact that they don't offer a schooner option for their drafts only pints. Every single establishment I patronize here in Seattle as well as across America from San Francisco to New York offers a schooner option. OFFER SCHOONERS FOLKS!!! The service is always good here. Everyone is professional, friendly, and very attentive! It has a vibrant atmosphere and I'll continue to dine here. Kelsey recently served me and she's excellent and lives up to high standards in this biz! Just wish they'd offer Schooners because I don't always want to have two pints and would order an additional pour if it were a schooner. read more

I have only been to the Local a couple times. The last time was around 11-12 on Thursday. It was surprisingly but pleasantly busy, as opposed to crazy busy. The service was prompt and friendly, and a big shout out to them for docking a plate that a friend didn't enjoy and allowing him to get something else, I think on the house but I'm not quite sure. The food was good. I had the bacon burger with sweet potato fries. I wouldn't send people here to try the burger but for late night grub in a loungy meets sports bar environment, it was serviceable. The sweet potato fries and the aioli were great! My friend was supplemented for the pot stickers, which he thought were "awful" for the wings, which he loved. They were delectably crispy, although after being spoiled with Victor Tavern's enormous wings, I found them a little small, but again, my friend loved them. The drinks were good, but just to get a little picky, the espresso martini could've came in a martini glass rather than something you might serve an old fashioned in. But yea, all in all a good time, with great service. I can see coming here for a game or to wrap up an evening with some conversation and food. read more

Ended up here because we got stuck in a 1.5 hour wait at Portege Bay across the street. Decent brunch. Got the avocado Benedict. Honestly the portion size was pretty small because I was able to finish the whole thing and didn't feel that full. I feel like I usually can never finish all the potatoes...I thought it was just ok, probably wouldn't come back. It wasn't bad by any means but nothing to write home about. read more

Upon our arrival, we were immediately welcomed by a delightful hostess, a blonde with a radiant presence, who swiftly guided us to our table, menus in hand. Her proficiency in hosting was nothing short of remarkable, demonstrating an advanced and intuitive grasp of her role. Shortly after being seated, we were greeted by our server, whose warm demeanor was complemented by a smile that could only be described as enchanting. Despite being engrossed in conversation, I was intrigued by a unique non-alcoholic beverage on the menu--the "Spritzing Image." The presentation, though understated, belied the drink's intricate and nuanced flavors. It was a testament to the thoughtfulness that went into its creation. As I continued to explore the menu, I was drawn to their interpretation of a "spicy chicken quesadilla." Though I typically have an aversion to cheese, there was an inexplicable pull that led me to order this dish. To say it satisfied my palate would be an understatement of epic proportions. This quesadilla redefined my appreciation for the dish, with its perfectly executed preparation and the divine chipotle sauce that accompanied it--a sauce so exquisite it defies description. However, the accompanying LPE greens were slightly disappointing, their acidity overpowering the dish's otherwise harmonious flavors. The energy outdoors was ideal, the weather outdoors was perfect and the music was tuned to my ears where it was still enjoyable but not too long. The touch of the TV's playing the correlating music video was very enjoyable. I can't wait to dine here again. read more

Love visiting Local when we come to Seattle. Always greeted with friendly service, amazing food and delicious drinks. Highly recommend

Would highly recommend this amazing spot for great food, friendly customer service and all around good vibes!

The service was great and I got the wings and the cold tea. Both were very good. My server was really nice and had to tend to the bar and the customers around it and he did a great job making sure I was good and didn't need anything extra. Wings had great flavor for sure and man that cold tea needs to be a full glass drink not a shot cause it's super tasty! read more

Decided to come eat here for dinner for the first time. We were happy to see that there was a Boba drink under there seasonal cocktails. The drink itself was really good coming from a Boba addict.

Came on a Thursday after work during an NBA Finals game so was prepared to wait a bit but the 30-minute wait that we were quoted was actually closer to 20 minutes so that was the first win. Upon being seated, service was quick and very attentive despite the restaurant being quite full. It was also quite loud but that was expected. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and we were torn between a few different selections but our waiter helped by suggesting some of his favorites and he was spot on. I had the Deluxe Burger and it was excellent. My mom had the BBQ Rice Bowl and wanted to go back to get it again everyday of her stay in Seattle-- she LOVED it. I tried it too and the mix of flavors really was good. For drinks, mom had the Blue Crush and though ice heavy, it was yummy and tasted like a vacation; I had the Spritzing Image, super refreshing for a warm day and bonus points to Local for having zero proof "cocktails" on the menu. Also, I had no problems bringing my dog so another bonus point for being dog-friendly! read more
