Been here on two occasions.
Drinks and high tea.

Both were great experiences!

The bar was surprisingly well priced, and the service was prefect. I also liked that there was a female bartender, it made things feel a little more balanced.
And so, even if you're not the classiest person around, this place will make you feel quite sophisticated.

This is the First Hill spot for schwanky dining on your lunch break.  Or when you're waiting for Grandma to be discharged from the ER.  It's so close, yet you feel so far away from work!  Surprisingly, it's not crazy expensive for lunch.  You can get outta there for about 20 bucks.  I guess that's because I can't have my two glasses of pinot grigio on my lunch break, so that keeps the cost down.  In the summer they have al fresco dining in front so you can sun yourself at the same time, nice!

I love it. I just love it.
Just walking through the doors of the Sorrento hotel makes me feel like a charming aristocrat. While being led to my table it's as if an air of grace has swooped me into it's arms.
Sophistication. Elegance. Taste. The Hunt Club is the epitome of all these things. And while it wouldn't be hard to make the atmosphere come off as gaudy or even too opulent, the Hunt Club pulls it off splendidly.
The Hunt Club is my hideaway from the noisy, repulsive restaurants many people frequent. You won't find any curt waiters here; there is excellent service.
Of course, naturally, for all of this, there is a price to pay. However, I find, that it is quite worth your while. Just so long as you don't go everyday, splurging will always be in good regulation!

I had another delicious meal here yesterday.  Salmon with fresh asparagus and fingerling potatoes with a light dressing of lemon cream - not too much, just right.  The service was perfect as was the atmosphere.  How could you go wrong at the Hunt Club.  My business associates were impressed and enjoyed the meal as well.

I had the best brunch here this morning!

My friends tipped me off that it was their favorite brunch spot and I was like "Hunt Club? Hotel? What?" but since they have great taste and we were like five minutes away from the ol' Club, I figured I'd test her on out.

I broke my crucial restaurant rule, that everyone should order something different so we can do samples, because my friend and I both wanted the Northwest Benedict... PERFECT! It was sososososo delicious. Eggs benedict with smoked salmon and sun-dried tomato cream sauce. Yes, PLEASE.
Came with a small (score! I hate huge portions) smattering of breakfast potatoes, which had the best sprigs of rosemary poked in them like baby pine trees. Loves it.

Of course, being me, I enjoyed a mimosa. I nursed it throughout the whole meal, it was very smooth and champagne-y and... mimosa-y. I would have happily downed like five of them, but it's the Hunt Club. You gotta be classy.

Excellent service, too. Everything about our brunch was just happy and delicious and cozy and, yep, classy. Also, keep in mind this was at like 1:30pm, their brunch is served until 3. Good to know, if you are a Sunday morning hangover regular like myself. The bar looks gorgeous, I definitely am heading back for a cocktail one of these nights. I'm sure it will be a lovely affair.

All in all, if you are HUNTING (get it? I'm so embarrassing) for a charming, leisurely brunch, do it up at the Club.

I am a little afraid to rate the Hunts Club as this is one of my favorite places to go!  If I didn't live so far away I'd probably go 3 times a week.  They used to have all their happy hour dishes for $1 each and then they realized they could charge a lot more!  The food is all first class and you can sit in the luxurious lounge and listen to live jazz.  It's awesome!  You should order their antipasto appetizer if you go for happy hour.  Their are a few exotic items but the dish is amazing and cheap for such a classy hotel.  This is where all the celebs stay when they're in town, so keep in eye and you may see a few stars.

A wonderful choice for a post-show cocktail.
Since we try and go out to the theater once a week, and often have friends in the cast, the obligatory drink after the show often occurs.
Instead of trying to cram into an over-crowed bar on Capitol Hill, mosey down Madison heading west, and pop into the luxurious Sorrento for a couple at the Hunt Club.
The service is excellent, the apps LOOKED good, but I would not come too hungry.
The atmosphere is classy, oaky, and warm.
The big room next door - The Fireside Room - has a live piano, big, comfy chairs, and true elegance.
My only complaint: no beers on tap, as far as I could tell. I had an IPA, and it came out of a bottle.

Before we were seated, the very nice host made sure we were not brother and sister, and then he led us to the booth that was named one of the most romantic places to kiss in Seattle. How nice of him to think of us youngens as real customers, since it a nice/expensive restaurant. That's why we went during the 25 for 25 promotion. (That's when a couple times a year, 25 restaurants do a 3-course dinner for $25. There is a limited menu with smaller portions, but it's a good chance to try a new place.)
