Background - It had been a long week, it was Friday night and the sun was out and Sambar seemed like the perfect spot to kick off the weekend.
Atmosphere - While the indoor space is hip and tiny, it's their outdoor garden and courtyard that makes this place such a gem. In fact, they don't open until 5:30pm and when we arrived at about 5:25pm, there were about four couples already lined up to secure an outdoor table.
Service - Good but with a slight "too cool for school" edge.
Drink- Amazing. They have a great cocktail list along with a good assortment of wines and a few beers. I had a Frobisher - gin, champagne, lemon and crushed ice. This is also the spot where I discovered one of my all time favorite sparkling wines, Bugey Cerdon.
Food - While this spot is really about the drinks but has a small menu with some nibbles to accompany the cocktails. We had a delicious cheese plate and their french fries are notable as well.
Verdict - 4 stars, maybe 5 on a sunny evening in Seattle.
