Everything here was spectacular! We ordered 2 dishes, a tea, apple juice, and chocolate milk. The food was all very well made and delicious. The loaded breakfast tots were perfect in every way! Fluffy eggs, crispy tots and bacon. The kids French toast was the perfect balance between crispy and soft. And the service? Everyone here was so incredibly kind and helpful and they all had such a great energy. This place made us feel so comfortable and at home. The staff, the food, the vibe: it was all just right for our vacation. read more

Me and few of my colleagues met up for debriefing on our last night on business trip earlier this month. Some of us haven't been to Downtown Seattle in years, and had no idea that they actually have a full dinner menu at The Bistro. On this work trip, it would have made more sense to have had our accommodations booked closer to Sea-Tac but that was out of any of our control. There's several restaurants and bars spread out in downtown, but this one seemed to be the hangout for the majority of my colleagues. Plenty of seats, lounge chairs, and bar seating too. We had a really good time! Because of the 3 hour difference it was getting late at night and we're all hungry for dinner. Service was excellent. Food was great, more than what we had anticipated. Also we asked for to-go containers. Overall, this bar was a lot of fun! read more

Food was good, but service from Omar was spectacular! Truly the kind of service that elevates any experience!

Good food and good proportions. Service was fast and they were friendly. The restaurant is connected to the hotel. The floor was quite sticky. They really need to clean things up. The Denver omelette was good. read more

3.5 stars Friendly service but slowwww to get food. About 25 minutes from order time to getting breakfast. Prices are reasonable at around $11-$12. I got French toast. My dad got the breakfast burrito. Portions are small. And there are no sides. I'd get the tater tots or something to turn it into a full meal. Taste is fine. Nothing you'll remember though. read more

This is based completely on their burger (which was ordered to go). Checked in at around 8:30pm and was starving! The location of the hotel is close to 3rd Avenue where we were told to avoid SPECIFICALLY after 11pm as it can get quite sketch.... soooo dine in it was! I ordered the Bistro Burger ($14 as of 6/2021 If I recall). This burger was AWESOME as other reviews have mentioned. The burger patty was cooked well and the cheese was perfectly melted. Fries were also great! For the price I could not complain and would 100% order again if I came back! read more

Mary Jane's service was fabulous!! She was so cheerful and engaging. She's very attentive as well.

Perfect spot to grab a quick bite before a concert. Small affordable and friendly staff too.

This is not going to be just a review but also a tribute to the human spirit and positive attitude during the pandemic. The Bistro is functioning in a limited fashion, meaning limited menu, limited capacity, etc. The menu is fairly basic, a few breakfast sandwiches, eggs in any way you prefer, oatmeal, a bagel, egg white frittata etc. Of course, coffee and juices provided as well. Food qualify is decent, prepared fresh, served quickly enough. What really stood out for us, during the few days we stayed at the Courtyard and eaten breakfast at The Bistro was the overall attitude, demeanor and hospitality of the (I guess that is his position) the restaurant manager, Chris Newell. Chris, despite the fact that he had to wear multiple hats (taking and processing the orders, retrieving the food from the kitchen, cleaning up tables etc) maintained a positive, welcoming attitude and always willing to come back and check to see how things are with your food, if you need anything else, providing good tips for the city sights etc. I could tell that with the hotel barely functioning, I assume most employees not knowing what tomorrow will bring, the stress level must be high. None of the reception staff and Chris showed any signs of it. We got engaged in a few conversations about the state of business, life in general and I just declare here, publicly, that people (don't want to use the word "employees") like Chris are rare, a true asset to any company, more so to a place that is in the hospitality business. Chris could ha e just handled our order, brought our food, asked if we needed anything else and we would still be happy with it. But Chris's demeanor, attitude and how he truly made us feel like valuable guests was above and beyond; he didn't have to do all that but you can tell that is the way his personality is and he was a man with great manners and top quality professionalism. People like Chris Newell would make me come back specifically to this hotel as such qualifies are not only rare but admirable. read more

The food was perfect and service was fast and waiter was super personable! Highly recommend for breakfast. Bit know that it is counter service and then they bring your food. Full Starbucks coffee service. read more

The bistro burger tasted like it was cooked a few hours ago or yesterday. French fries were hot but the burger was lukewarm. Tried the IPA seasonal tap option and it was totally flat. Server switched it out for the Amber but it was flat too. They need to clean their tap lines and get a new CO2 tank. 1 server was really nice but the others seemed like they didn't want to be there. Seek other places to eat and drink. read more

Located within the Courtyard hotel, I came here for breakfast while staying at the hotel. Order first and they bring you food. I had eggs benedict and coffee, I would have preferred my eggs to be runny and could have used more sauce but service here was very good. After I ordered my food, they realized they don't have anymore regular English muffin and came to my table sounding really sorry if they could substitute to whole grain English muffin. He sounded so apologetic, I felt bad for making him feel that way. I was just observing staff as I had nothing much to do and noticed a manager working harder than any other staff. I think he was the manager as he was wearing a tie but he would go out and help staff to clean the table and was working harder than any other staff. Server was very friendly too. Breakfast price was reasonable, may not be the best food but I enjoyed their excellent service read more

The best food I've had in a Courtyard by Marriott. The staff is friendly and professional. The ambiance is relaxing.

Sorry no picture here, but I had a great experience! I was staying at the Marriott and was not in the mood to go out in the city. I decided to check out The Bistro. I made it for happy hour, but it was a little more of a limited menu than I expected. However, the good pour on their gin and tonic made up for it. I decided on the simple Bistro Burger and I was pleasantly surprised. This square burger had just the right amount of fat, but not overly greasy. This was placed on a perfect bun. The crinkle cut fries made me nervous, but they were perfectly fried. Honestly it was a tasty burger. The bartender here was extremely friendly. I would certainly be back again. Had there been more options on the menu I world have given this place five stars. read more

Loved the happy hour here at the Bistro while staying at the Courtyard Marriott (Pioneer Square). My husband and I ordered the fry trio that came with different dipping sauces and the wing platter. The fries were so big and crispy! The dipping sauces were nothing special in my opinion but the delicious fries didn't need a dip. The wings come in different flavors, we tried the buffalo and BBQ. They were surprisingly good. Wasn't expecting them to be that good for a hotel restaurant. They were crispy in the outside and juicy on the inside and the platter came with carrots and celery and ranch! So good. read more

I got the loaded tots and they were delicious. But it was difficult to get service. We would sit for awhile with menus put away and with empty drinks before somebody came over to take orders. It was good in a pinch, but I wouldn't go again. read more

A typical hotel restaurant. Overpriced disappointing food. Service was ok. Food cannot be delivered to your room, so be prepared to go down to get it. Starbucks coffee is available, a decent yogurt and fresh fruit is available in the morning. Staff is friendly, the price and food is not their fault. I wouldn't plan to go here unless you have to. I also wouldn't go here unless you are at the hotel and are a rewards member and have credit or have rewards. read more

Staying at Courtyard Pioneer Square for a few days on work travel. Nice hotel, well maintained, great location with downtown and public transit proximity. Bistro restaurant leaves much to be desired, at least for breakfast. No buffet options, just a (somewhat limited) menu that is order at counter - fast casual style. I ordered lemon ricotta pancakes, and they were dry, not at all moist and delicious as I would expect. Prices were somewhat high, but likely commensurate with downtown Seattle (2 pancakes and OJ with tip was $16). For the price and qualify, I would suggest finding another breakfast eatery downtown instead. read more

DO NOT EAT AT THE RESTURANT (THE BISTRO) IN THIS HOTEL!!!!! I ordered a salad to go at the restaurant. With tip, the total was $18.52. THEY CHARGED MY DEBIT CARD $1852!!!!!! causing it to overdraft a few hundred dollars and get dinged for multiple overdraft charges. I got the run around from the The Bistro saying that I have to get it resolved with the bank since the charge already went through, BECAUSE OF THEIR OWN ERROR. Perhaps the server that day ran off with the money I don't know. All day I have been going back and forth with the resturant, the hotel managment as well as Marriott corporate to get it resolved and all I have been getting is the run around. This is totally unacceptable on all accounts. I should not have to do mulitple hours of personal legwork to get an issue resolve that was done by potential fraudulent behavior by the hotel restuarant. read more

There should be a circle in hell reserved for the Marriott executive forcing the bistro folks to call pre-sliced deli meat and precooked potatoes "corned beef hash". Seeing it on the menu and then on the plate. Bummer. read more

Food was a bit pricey but good. Service was slow at first however Mary Jane was wonderful!

Great little addition to the Courtyard Marriott. Came here for breakfast both mornings during my stay and had dinner here one night as well. For breakfast I sat in one of the booths that has its own TV and got to watch CNN while enjoying my breakfast. Their selection is similar to most Marriotts and the service was prompt and courteous. For dinner I sat over at a table by one of the big TVs and enjoyed a nice dinner and glass of wine on a quiet night. If you are staying at this Marriott the Bistro is awesome. Everything you can want w/o having to leave the hotel, including a full coffee bar with Starbucks coffee! read more

The Bistro at Courtyard - Eggs, toast, ham & potatoes breakfast - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This review is based on multiple visits. I ate here with my family numerous times for breakfast and dinner. The thing that really struck me as odd is that on a few occasions I had to stand at the coffee area and order from the menu there before I was seated. In general, the service was friendly and the place was decorated nicely. The extra thick bacon was incredible as well as the crispy chunks of breakfast potatoes. They serve Starbucks which is a plus. During the different times I ate there I had a steak and BBQ pork ribs and they were both OK. This place gets slow sometimes so one person may act as the server, bartender, barista and manager at the same time. The seating is a little to modern for me by trying to squeeze four people to share a small round table. read more

This review is based on a number of visits as a traveler from out of town. 1. Great service. The people here are friendly, helpful and generous with their time and efforts. 4 different people, different times and experience was all A+. I never had to chase anyone down, ever. I came in at ~9:45pm once and even though they close at 10pm, I still had a great experience. 2. Food is not "Special". It's good, simple, regular food. That is tasty. Away from home, at a hotel, I'm not looking for special. I'm looking for simple tasty food. 3. Price is ok. I didn't think it was expensive or cheap, middle of the road. 4. Great seating, place to meet and work on projects. They have tables, the bar, and these circular seating areas with televisions. 5. Clean. 6. No gluten free menu/items :(. They did accommodate by removing the bread and putting the effort in to clean the grill well. I appreciated this greatly. Overall, I'm really happy with this place. It may not be a place locals go to based on the average rating. For this traveler, it was great. read more

Great atmosphere, but that is all that it has going for it. We stayed in the connected hotel for 4 nights at the end of June of 2021. The host sat us, took our drink order, then ignored us. People who came in after us received their drinks within minutes of them sitting down. The waitress who was working completely ignored us. After about 20 minutes, we got up and left. This is by far the worst we have ever been treated in a Marriott property. I have filed a complaint with corporate. read more

3 stars thanks to the good service. Seevers are super nice and they will bring the food up to your room without adding any charges like most hotels. However, food was quite disappointing. I ordered a herb chicken breast with broccolini. Chicken was very dry and broccolini was charred. Did not enjoy the food at all. read more

It is so hard to find anyplace open on Mondays so we have them a try. We went for dinner. The bar tender/waiter, Omar was wonderful! The food was ordered special due to my friend's allergies. They were knowledgeable and accommodating. The next morning we went down to grab a quick bite to eat and the coffee staff was great! Again, very knowledgeable concerning allergies. The food was great! read more

Thank you to the gentlemen that served us our last drink just when you're about to close. I know it's late and you're ready to check out but you were nice enough to make two delicious Moscow mules. Great service, friendly and nice conversation. read more

The food is good but skip the Starbucks. I should have known when the employee looked up instructions to make a caramel macchiotto. It tasted so horrible that I could not drink it and got in the car to head to a local Starbucks. The hotel manager refunded the cost of the macchiotto. read more

It's a bare bones crew running a bar at a hotel. In the morning there was one staff on kiosk, and one cook. At night, one bartender, one cook. Service is expensive and long read more

Nice little bar on 2nd downtown! Went to the Marriot connected next door for a conference and then went here for happy hour drinks afterward. Very nicely decorated bar, great for groups, business meetings, and they serve food and drinks. The prices are good, staff is courteous and friendly, the appetizers are really great and portions are plentiful! I would recommend trying the quesadillas and the humus platter..both very good and filling! :) They also have really good happy hour specials and they pour drinks on the stiffer side..definitely a plus! I would come back again :) read more

The Bistro at Courtyard - Happy Hour Menu - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I often walk by this place on my way to Trabant Coffee & Chai. I decided to check out their happy hour between jobs the other week: 1) It's a nice, clean, yet, simple modern bar with 2 screens showing football and airy/spacious vibe. 2) Staff was pleasant, although it was kind of awkward when I finished my food and looked around; towards the bar, the bartendar/waiter sort of leaned backwards from behind the building column and tilted his head to check on me. 3) The HH grub I selected was solid. I enjoyed it and the waiter had good rec's (although I skipped the bacon pizza dish). I had the tortilla chips (homemade?) & dips and the garlic fries; $3 and $4, respectively. There's also the $5 tier (which the bacon pizza is in---who would want that... bacon...). Good food! And those garlic fries are above-average and, IMO, beat Safeco Field's and others. I think it's because of the (fresh?) garlic-to-salt ratio. 4) My gin & tonic was a bit stiffer than prevous G&T's I recall. Perhaps Akvile H is right about the stiffer drinks! 5) Nice seating and rather easy to watch the games on TV. read more

Was staying at the Marriott so I went down about six o'clock or so for the happy hour and immediately ran into some folks I knew - small world. Well, not really - we were all here for the same event - So this bar served its purpose as a place for all of us to chill out and hang out and meet colleagues that were also in town. The beers kept flowing and we all had a good time catching up and meeting new folks. Can't say much about the food because both times we gathered here we didn't order any. The bartender was very attentive and "on it" even with the number of customers she had to deal with. Nice bar, there are also lots of chairs and small tables to lounge at. I really like the casual atmosphere of this place and I usually don't take too much notice of hotel bars but this one was quite nice. read more

The breakfast is outstanding and the staff members make you feel not so far from home. The evening atmosphere is the same. A must do for outstanding dining. read more

Grabbed a glass of vino here while waiting on a friend who was staying in the hotel. The whole experience was average; nothing great to report, nothing bad to report. Nice view of the street from a window table; good place to people-watch on a grungy Seattle day... Good location and accommodating staff. 3.3 stars. read more

I had to sit waiting for 25 min for a to-go bagel and cream cheese. They were prioritizing everything sit down. I appreciate a busy morning, but it would have taken someone 2 seconds to pop it in the toaster while they were making everything else. I would have ordered a full breakfast had I known it would take so long. read more
