John Howie Steak - Seattle Weekly Review

In this week's Seattle Weekly Jonathan Kauffman reviews the newly opened John Howie Steak (JHS) in Belluvue's new Bravern complex; the latest endeavor from the lauded chef/entrepreneur of Seastar.


Per Kauffman's review it seems like they are doing alot of things right at JHS, including some elegant, old-school table service and high quality, aged beef. It is no wonder that Kauffman found the service hit-or-miss from such a new restaurant with the precision needed to pull off the pomp and circumstance of the traditional steakhouse experience.

My advice would be to wait a while for JHS to get its practice laps in before splurging for what could be a pretty elaborate and expensive meal. If things follow Howie's reputation, service should fall into line shortly.
