Marination Columbia City

The prices for Rainer Tall Boys are great, but unfortunately, the food didn’t meet expectations. The edamame had a texture that resembled slop.

We have been fans of Marination since their days as a food truck in Capitol Hill. Over the years, we've thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. Some days, we simply grab a margarita and some fried rice, while on other occasions, we order catering for a birthday celebration. We truly love Marination!

Food wasn't anything crazy. It wasn't bad, but I had 3 dishes there that were all okay.Drinks were good. The Jalapeno Vodka is exactly what it sounds like.Service was less satisfying. Not the most friendly, and outgoing staff. The atmosphere is great they have their own parking lot right next to the place which is convenient but can take away from the atmosphere when it's crowded.

Marination is an amazing spot! They collaborated with Bloodworks to host a public meet and greet with Mariners pitcher Cal Raleigh. I got there really early and ended up being the first in line. I received a free food voucher for a pork sandwich, and I also tried a Spam Musubi and a Mango Lemonade. All three items were delicious! Their Hawaiian food is top-notch (trust me, I was born in Oahu). Thank you, Marination, for organizing this event!

It is so great to bring family and kids here. There is room for kids to roam safely. We had a huge spread that was laid out well and watched over by one staff member. The food is great and it's easy to order. I just think that they are understaffed and may be overworked. You have to order at bar and it would be great to have a water and trash/recycling area outside area, because the outside is the best area to be!Wheelchair accessibility: 1 floor. Loads of parking next to outside area makes it wheelchair accessible.

We dined as a group of four and each of us ordered a different entrée. Everyone was extremely pleased with their meal. I tried the Miso Ginger Chicken Lūʻau Plate, and the chicken was so delicious that I could have kept eating it even after I was full due to its incredible flavor. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, and the staff is friendly. This will definitely be a regular spot for us when we eat out in Seattle. If you haven't been here yet and are reading reviews to see if it's worth visiting, I can assure you that it absolutely is! Ver carta

I loved every aspect of this place! It had a relaxed atmosphere with a light crowd for a midweek dinner. The spacious, island-themed decor created a pleasant vibe. Their bar food is top-notch, and they even offer vegan options. Everything is served in disposable paper trays. The bartender was attentive, and there were plenty of seating options both indoors and outdoors. Even on a warm day, it felt refreshingly cool. I'm really hoping this place thrives and experiences many busy nights in the future. For vegetarians, I highly recommend trying the tofu tots and edamame!

Amazing atmosphere and amazing employees, they definitely made my experience feel very much at home, I could not thank the main receptionist and her amazing daughter enough, they definitely made my experience very pleasant I plan on returning back with friends and family, food is fresh and made on the spot also they worked with me and made a custom plate it was a kula pig and kimchi fried rice with an egg on top ??? sooo yummy! Made to perfection! Also the malasada was warm and fresh and sooo delicious I'm excited to try everything on the menu! Thank you again for the amazing experience!

Oh my gosh did we ever love Marination! We both got kimchi fried rice, one with kalbi beef and the other with spicy pork. Both were excellent. The meat was tender and super flavorful. The spicy pork wasn 't too spicy for me (I 'm a medium spice kind of girl). The kimchi fried rice was spicy in the perfect way. The sunny side up egg on top was perfect on both. Plus the bar has an epic selection of cocktails and other libations. The patio seating was delightful. The staff that took our order was friendly and helpful. The food came out quickly. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: They have sexy tofu as a protein option, and our friends who have had it love it Ver carta
