Small, dark, intimate, with a cat heavy decor. A perfect place to pass an hour quietly with your sweetie or a good book. But more importantly, good lord, the drinks. I don't live here anymore, but I've boozed my way through Seattle many a time, from Cannon to Knee High to a bunch of Belltown. This matches them all. Infusion and sous vide and fat washing heavy, this is a place for cocktails that hit all your taste receptors. I walked in for the brown butter banana old fashioned, which is outstanding (banana bread in a glass), but really, everything I tried was great and I want to come back for at least two more. The owner Adam, who's often behind the stick, knows what he's doing. Come on down.

It feels oddity shop and Edgar Allen Poe inspired. Moody but also thrilling. It has a really comfortable feel to it as well, seems like a place that collects regulars while enticing new customers as well. They were really busy on a Thursday evening. That's actually the only reason that I haven't given it 5 stars (yet), because the service was pretty slow. Although, I might have to reconsider because it allowed me to take those strong drinks slower while getting plenty of convo time in with friends. I'm excited to come back and Corvus has become a place I want to bring other friends to as well!

Drinks are thoughtfully made, unique, and bursting with flavor every time. One of the few places in Seattle where a 15 dollar drink actually feels worth it. Gorgeous ambience, and they host some really cool events. Bring a friend/date here you won't regret.

I was impressed with the menu and appreciated the creativity. I was glad to hear about the thought process around some drinks and that they update the menu with some regularity in a pleasant conversation with the bartender. I was really happy with the, quite interesting, bullion whiskey cocktail I ordered. They have a food menu now. I'm kind of forgetting what they served, but it seemed like pot stickers were maybe on the menu, along with maybe 5 other items. The place was about 3/4 full on a Friday. I noticed the service would bog down for awhile and then free up again, and that seemed to be the pattern for the evening. This is a really vibey gem tucked away in the northwestern end of Capitol Hill, great if you want to get away from crowds or just go to one of the cooler bars in Seattle.

Once again, we walked in at around 5:30pm hoping to get a couple burgers. This time, we were told…read moreto order from another window rather than from the bartender. No one was there, so we ordered drinks and sat to wait for someone to be at the window. The Banana Pudding shot was excellent, but it wasn't advertised as a shot on the board which would have been nice to know. My boyfriend enjoyed his Pineapple Margarita. We finished our drinks, and still no one to be found by the window to take our food orders. We thought last time was a fluke, but it seems to be the norm for Badlands to advertise food but not have any. We might come back for drinks, but stay away if you're hoping to get some grub

The steak frites was wonderfully portioned and served at a perfect medium rare. All for 20$! The collard greens were great. The crab beignets and cajun shrimp were so good I would come here in a heart beat if they served seafood gumbo. The chocolate cake also had a wonderful malty layer and a great crust. 10/10 would return!

(Visiting from Florida)…read more Came here for a Birthday Brunch and enjoyed the tasting/ pairing menu. There was six courses with a cocktail/mini cocktail for each for $60, with the option to add oysters or steak, eggs, bone marrow for additional cost. The drinks were curated by one who was definitely passionate about their craft and the food aligned, as well. The interior was vibey and set up like a lounge, with artist, urban/underground decor from the dining room to the bathroom. The service was the best -- th owner was super kind, welcoming, and had a lot of hospitality. Our server was also super sweet and passionate about the drinks she curated. It wasn't crowded at all on a Sunday for such a deal, so that was a super pleasant surprise, too. The parking is free, but definitely an area in proximity to homeless people but they were kind and minded their business. I also hear they have a night life vibe as well.

We came here right after our nice dinner at Musang, and the place was already packed when we arrived. You can definitely feel that lively Belltown energy the moment you walk in with dim lighting, chill music, and that cool, slightly hipster lounge vibe that fits perfectly in the neighborhood. The entire staff was already in full Halloween mode, and the bar was decked out with festive decorations everywhere even the drinks were themed! Lol. It was definitely a fun surprise to experience that early in the season. The service was fast, and the bartenders were super friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. Drinks were beautifully crafted, strong, balanced, and totally on theme! Overall, Rob Roy totally lives up to its reputation with great cocktails, fun atmosphere, quick service, and welcoming staff. Perfect spot for a nightcap after dinner or if you want to feel like a local in the heart of Belltown.
