"Update March 2024. Went for my son’s birthday. This time we sat in the dining room. Excellent service. Amazing food. Bring your bonus check. $$$ because you want to try everything. Worth it. Wow What a great experience. Excellent service and food. The tri-tip was with Santa Maria sauce was amazing. We also had the King Salmon, onion rings, banana foster cheesecake, and cream brûlée. Recommend this place for those who appreciate high quality."

"Without a doubt the best steakhouse I’ve been to in the Seattle area. Every single thing was perfect. I had to have them taken away so that I didn’t attempt to lick the whipped potato dish clean. The wait staff was quick and made phenomenal recommendations, and even though it was a Friday night both the appetizer and main courses were out very quickly. I cannot recommend Rare Society enough. I cannot wait to return again and again so I can sample the rest of the menu."

"What an amazing dining experience! From the moment we arrived, the wait staff was attentive, courteous and wonderfully professional. We celebrated a belated Valentine's Day dinner and it was memorable all around. The food was superbly made and presented and tasted even better. The portions of the beef tartare was the largest we ever had and the steamed clams were uniquely seasoned and super delicious. I don't have any bread with my meals but the sauce of the clams demanded it and boy, I didn't regret it one bit. The bread was toasted on the same wood grill as the beef so they were covered with the beef tallow - yum! My wife and I shared the executive board and the beef portions though large had the right amount of fat and the beautiful char. So tasty and scrumptious! We ended our meal with the banana foster cheesecake that was a surprise! We can't wait to go back again - highly recommended for dinner dates and special occasions! PS I took one star off for atmosphere because our table was really close to a larger party and also close to the kitchen resulting in the wait staff hitting my head every time they had to get to the larger party. But they always apologize being the courteous professional staff that they are."

"We went for dinner. The server was fantastic and went through the menu and let us know most everything is shared size. We ordered the rolls, a salad, the Associate platter of steak and 3 sides- cheesy mac shells, mashed potatoes, and the carrots for dinner. The butter cake for dessert. The portions were very generous and the steak was cooked perfectly. Even the dessert was huge- the creme anglaise poured over the butter cake is dreamy delicious, served with sour cream ice cream and whipped cream. This is a great place for a special meal with friends, date night. Make sure to have an appetite before you go! Happy hour looks very intriguing, get there early because the bar seating fills up!"

"Oh my oh my!!! Everything we ate was absolutely fantastic! Our waiter's recommendations were spot on. (thanks Victor) I loved the super cool rat pack vibes. The staff is respectful and helpful and knows the menu very well. The steaks were cooked to perfection and I can't praise the bananas fosters enough. I HIGHLY recommend this place."
