FOOD IS GREAT service ok
I always go here for special occasions. The food is awesome, but the service can be a bit trying. BUT the food is worth anything you go through with the wait staff.

Great Brunch horrrrible service
I had heard that the service was bad at this place but that the food was good. I decided to give it a try and see for myself. The Eggs Benedict is some of the best I have ever had and the place all together is very affordable (24 bucks for 2 orders of the Benedict and a mimosa). However, the service is absolutely horrible. Make sure you go when you have time to sit and wait around for some service and the tables are always sticky!!!

Great atmosphere, good food, poor service
I eat here occasionally and treat myself to the steak salad, the food is good and a really cozy place for a beer lover! I service is a joke and if they weren't in laid back West Seattle they probably wouldn't have cutomers...

Great Food; Very BAD Service!
I love the steak salad and the burger! The food is great but the service really leaves a lot to be desired... The wait staff are as bad as it gets..too bad.

I've eaten here many times and almost always get the special. With a few exceptions, I have always been extremely happy. They really have a knack for sauces, always delicious.

Excellent food & wonderful service
Talk about fine, dine, and wine. Ohhhmmm...this place is one of the remarkable restaurant that serve fantastic food. It's small but the food, service, and crowd are great. Will definitely recommend and will go back.

my favorite west seattle restaurant
If I want a good meal or want to take anyone out to a meal I know they will love, Circa is the place. It's small, quaint and and charming. the food is fabulous. I could not say better things about any restaurant. And they even have Moose Droul on tap.

I've been a regular at circa since it opened. The food is fabulous, but the service not so much... But their delicious breakfasts keep me coming back.

Great food, you just have to wait a little for it.
Been here several times with my wife... AWESOME food each time. Service was slow each time, but I'll chalk that up to the fact that every table was full every time we've visited, which should tell you something about the quality of the joint! And even though it was slow, the servers were always nice, never pretentious. To keep yourself busy waiting for dinner, get the beer sampler; it's awesome. :)

To Die For
This place was to die for! I was in heaven with my Blackened Halibut Sandwich with Apple Coleslaw. It was the perfect combination of spicy and sweet on the best bun I have ever tasted. I was concerned that it would get soggy before I had a chance to finish, but it was good to the last bite. I have had a taste of that sandwich ever since. I wish I wasn't four hours away! I have considered driving over to Seattle just for dinner at Circa. That is how good it was...

good food!
The food we had was really good. I think the avg food plate is around $12 unless you get a burger ($8). Service was pretty bad, our server didn't seem to know much about anything and was very slow. Would definatly go back though.

Yum
The bartenders pour a great Guinness and what's not to love about the steak salad! Circa is my favorite West Seattle hangout.

Fabulous place!
This place is my favorite place to eat in West Seattle (aside from Jak's). The steak salad is the best! And the quaint environment adds to a great meal... I have been atleast 25 times and brought in several out of town guests that love it also.

Great bar and nice comfort food
This place is always pretty busy and a bit cramped, but I love it! The bar is great, kind of has an old English Pub feel to it. Great Meatloaf, reminds me of the kind that mom used to make! Definitely check it out!
