Ba Bar Capitol Hill

This place deserves higher than its current 4.4 rating. The food, service, and quality are all 5.0, but I think a lot of reviewers find it hard to give it a 5 because they think vietnamese food should be cheaper. It's actually not expensive because you can get a complete meal big dish for $19. But if you add an appetizer and two drinks then you are spending $80pp after tax&tip. (Which is fair in Seattle for this) This place has such elegant atmosphere, sophisticated drinks, and more. Treat yourself to a classy lunch or night out!

Our son lives nearby, so we eat at Ba Bar whenever we visit. The servers are awesome! They always give great recommendations for new dishes and cocktails to try. Their happy hours (afternoon and late evening) are the perfect opportunity to try lots of small plates and share with friends. I would give more stars if I could!

Authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Capitol Hill open till midnight. They have authentic tofu spinach rolls which are delicious. We got the spicy chicken ramen soup and the pho do gron which was solid! They have a lot of toppings and meat in the broth and ramen . You can customize it and ask for less noodles. The service was quick and the server was friendly. Very happy with the place and will visit it again whenever I am craving Vietnamese food

I've probably been here about a dozen times - it's conveniently located for our community after we get out late at night, so it's a plus that it's open late. Overall, it's a pretty good place. The service has improved in the last couple of years - it was a little pretentious feeling from the front of house last year. Every time I come here, I do feel the same about it, though - the atmosphere is nice, but the food is a little disappointing for me. It's a little pricey, and the flavor is slightly off. The phở broth is very sweet and cinnamon, it's not right. I have had to order it extra hot because the broth always comes out warm, also wrong. It should be boiling hot, especially if you have the tái because it needs to be cooked. The wings are actually amazing though - I do give those 5 stars.

We came in as a group of 5 for dinner on a weekday. We were seated right away once the entire party arrived. I ordered the yellow curry noodles - the portion sizes are enormous! The curry is warm and hearty and quite lovely. I also ordered the lemongrass soda which is really quite nice), although as you can see, it’s really 50% ice. Overall not too many vegetarian options given how extensive their menu is. Service is quick and efficient. Our food came out within 5 minutes of placing the order!
