Best cake in Seattle, they really get the balance down with cakes that are just the right level of sweet and an incredible selection of flavors.

Great spot to grab some dim sum. Food was tasty, portions large, and service excellent. The only issue I had was with the QR code ordering, I couldn't see what I had ordered after ordering, making it difficult to remember the names. Otherwise, a great experience.

Fantastic spot for a picnic in the car. You can have a great view right from your parking spot.

Small space, small menu, big experience and atmosphere. Lots of delicious tinned fish options for food, cocktails, sherries, and vermouths for drinks. Of course that's the primary reason to come, but really the place feels like a secret little portal to another world where you can slow down and unwind, listen to jazz while sipping sheet, after a busy day. I don't think most of the tourists end up finding this place, but worth definitely worth checking out.

Hotel restaurants can so often be an underwhelming experience, but happily Conversation is excellent. The food is delicious with inspired ingredients, the cocktails are great and innovative, and the service very attentive.

But beyond that, I must say that the atmosphere at Conversation is special. I don't honestly know what it is, but coming for dinner in the evening, it just feels so relaxing and intimate. The gentle lighting, the bronze silverware, the glow from the windows, maybe it's all these things and more, there's just an attention to detail that makes itself known subliminally that just makes dinner here wonderful.

They also do breakfast which didn't leave the same impression on me. I'd much more recommend dinner.
