Revel - Seattle

My sister brought me take out crab noodles from today's Dungeness Crab Festival. She didn't check the order until she got to my home. The only crab in that entire dish is that tiny 2 inch piece you can see below. I've been coming for 6 years and even bought the cook book, and this was the first time the noodles have been that devoid of crab. We even moved the noodles and that was the only piece included. She tried calling the restaurant but no one picked up. She also emailed and we are waiting for a response.

We asked our Airbnb host about good restaurants in our neighborhood. She recommended Revel and it's sister restaurant Joule. We walked in to Revel after 8 on a Tuesday without a reservation. We had a delicious and lovely meal. They close at 9, so were out of a few of our first choices, but we were not disappointed in anything we ordered. Our favorites were the shrimp crisps and the black sesame miso flan.

Just yes to everything at Revel. My friend Philip shared Revel with me on a recent trip to Seattle. It was my favorite meal while there. The grilled octopus was memorable, but as we were going through the plates, tapas style, the flavor profiles were outstanding. I can't wait to go back.

This place has fabulous cocktails and fusion food. I appreciate that the waitress was able to answer food allergy questions, and the food and cocktails were absolutely delicious. I had the morel paella and a drink that was strawberry and rye, and a passion fruit cocktail. Add daikon kimchee on the side! It was so good!

Had been holding a gift card for years, finally decided to give this place a try. Had heard nothing but good, but we've moved a bit away. Made a 5:15 Friday reservation, we made it a few min later-no problem. We perused the menu and some neighboring plates; our server verified our choices would be hers as well! Everything was great-rice cakes a bit on the salty side, but we didn't leave anything behind. Crispy rice is fun...crispy as the name suggests. Short rib wontons were the all-around winner, but still have a lot of the menu to explore next time!
