    It was nice and the happy hour was good! It was pretty windy outside and we asked multiple times for the heater next to us to be turned on. Other than that, the place has a good vibe and a pretty descent priced happy hour
    Earls Kitchen + Bar - Financial District, King & UniversityResponded 1 day ago
    We greatly appreciate your feedback, Julianna! Sorry about the heater delay - we'll address this service issue. Glad you enjoyed our happy hour and atmosphere. We look forward to hosting you again.

    Happy hour wasn't clearly labeled. We were seated in an area where happy hour was not allowed. Our group was disappointed. Also, we were upcharged significantly for a basic substitution.

    Thank you for your feedback, Harry. We apologize for the confusion about happy hour seating and the upcharge concerns. We look forward to hosting you again.

    We came to celebrate my friend’s B-day and they surprised us with B-day card for her at the table , also we ordered a dessert and they let it on the house ! They do pay attention to special comments when making reservations . No wonder the place is so busy in the middle of the week even for Happy HOUR .

    Arrived at Earl’s for happy hour but when we were seated, we were told that a number of their happy hour dishes were unavailable :( One of the things we were able to order also never made it to the table, but still ended up on the receipt (though this was quickly corrected). Lesson learned, if you want to enjoy the happy hour, arrive as early as possible.
    Earls Kitchen + Bar - Financial District, King & UniversityResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Shailee. We apologize for the unavailable happy hour items and billing error. We look forward to hosting you again.

    I always enjoy the food here but the main dining room was closed this night so we could only sit in the bar, our waiter was not very friendly and he just seemed to be bothered by us the whole time

    Was a wet Saturday afternoon and very dreary. The staff at the desk were friendly and welcoming. The menu was varied enough for all our needs, allergies, preferences, etc. However, the hit was our server Maddie. She was an excellent blend of professional and friendly. She knew the menu well and could answer questions, and went to speak to the chef about a certain item. She checked in without being intrusive and then helped our friend John with his Uber account so he could get home. The rest of us had to leave for the theatre but she promised she would look after him. All in all, a great afternoon on a wet and wild afternoon.
    Earls Kitchen + Bar - Financial District, King & UniversityResponded 5 days ago
    We are glad to hear about your wonderful experience, Judith! Maddie's attentive service and care for John truly reflects our values. We look forward to hosting you again.

    Way too loud. Food too spicy. Not a good atmosphere or food.

    We are concerned to hear about your experience, Jack. We understand noise levels and spice preferences matter. We look forward to hosting you again.
