Asadero Ballard 5405 Leary Avenue Northwest, Seattle, WA 98107

"Fantastic experience, wonderful service (love the water additions and peppermint tea afterward) and amazing food. Totally worth a night out. A bit loud, so hard to have conversations with table mates but otherwise perfect!"

"Asadero is an amazing spot in Ballard for a dinner date, especially if you want a good steak. The food is always very flavorful and cooked to perfection. And the service is always top notch. I’ve never left this restaurant disappointed. Chef’s kiss."

"Service and food were fantastic. Servers know the menu well and have great commendations. Some of the tables are a little small but they’ll work with you to fit everything. Overall Asadero does an amazing job with their meat selection. They also do a great job of pairing / enhancing flavors with salt and spices but also not overdoing it - letting the cooking process and ingredient selection speak for itself. The zabuton melted in my mouth - the mole and chimichurri sauces were delicious but honestly not entirely necessary. Definitely liked how they served it on a hot stone slab as my girlfriend likes this a little more medium and I prefer rare so we could slightly customize the cook to our preference. The carne asada is the best I’ve had in the city. Spiced to perfection and served with all the traditional fixings. Plenty of dessert and drink options as well."

"This place is unique on its own. Our waiter was top notch, always there to provide excellent customer service. Ordering here was done with the online menu, and everything looked and sounded so good, for an appetizer we ordered the bone marrow and I’ve never had bone marrow but that was so good!! For the main entree I ordered the steakhouse burger. They are known for their steaks but that burger is the best I’ve ever had! They know what they’re doing with their burgers. Also since sides are not included you must get them separately and the papa locks was ordered. This was also perfectly cooked, cheese melted right off and wagyu was cooked to perfection too. I would go back here to try their steaks and especially that burger!"

"Have been here twice and the food and service have been excellent both times. The meat is well seasoned, cooked to your preferred temp and finished table side on a sizzling hot plate. The tortillas are soft and pliable and the salsas add a great acidity to the meals. We ordered some veggies to counterbalance the meat heavy dishes and were pleasantly surprised. The roasted cauliflower with habanero truffle sauce was a great addition. Also the drinks are top notch. This is an around solid steakhouse and great date night location."
