I came with a large group so enjoyed the course meal at Homer and it was very delicious. The portions were big and because it was a 4-course meal, I was very stuffed by the end of my dinner. I loved the various hummus and spreads with the pita bread -- the whipped garlic was very flavorful and smooth. The second course with small dishes was surprising in a good way. I didn't expect the strong, smoky flavor profiles from the vegetables. The grilled dates with pistachio oil were one of my favorites. The mains included roasted chicken and grilled pork, which both were perfectly cooked. The pork dish had pear which looked very similar to each other and the pear made the pork a bit cold. I'd come again but would want to come with a smaller group to select my own dishes. Overall, a great dining experience!

My fav restaurant in Seattle! It's a place I would truly miss if we moved away This was one of our first time reserving family style feast which is required for 6 or more people I believe. It was lovely to try so many different dips, fresh pita, sides, main courses and dessert with the family! The service was impromptu and efficient. This is a place I was recommend people visit when visiting Seattle!

My boyfriend and I went to Homer a couple weeks ago, it was my 2nd time and his 1st. Homer doesn't take reservations unless you have a large group, so we arrived around 5:30pm on a Friday night and waited about 1 hour after checking in. Next time, I would plan to arrive right at opening (5pm) to avoid the long wait. When we were finally notified they were ready for us, we were seated at the bar overlooking the kitchen area. It was fun to watch the hustle and bustle of the kitchen, the chefs all seemed to be having a great time. For food, we ordered labneh with pita bread, two small dishes, and the roasted chicken large plate. We found this was a good amount of food for two. I especially enjoyed the simplicity of the roasted chicken which truly highlighted the flavor and tenderness of the chicken. We ended the night with the soft serve, a sweet way to end the evening!

Homer is always on point with every dish! 10/10! Service is always welcoming and love seating Infront of the open kitchen to see the chefs at work!

I recently tried the Homer Feast with a group of friends, and had one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. The feast included eight different dishes. Since our party had seven people, our waiter brought two portions of each dish so that everyone would have plenty of food. They also told us we could have as much of their warm, soft pita bread as we wanted, which was perfect for scooping up every last bit of the dips and sauces. My favorite dishes were the hummus platter, the beet dish, and the pork chop. The hummus platter was creamy and flavorful, and the fresh pita paired perfectly with it. The beet dish was a big surprise with its mix of earthy, sweet, and tangy flavors. Even as someone who doesn't usually go for beets, I loved it. The pork chop was another highlight, cooked just right with a hint of smoky flavor. For dessert, we had two awesome options: a warm cookie topped with ice cream and a seasonal cherry blossom sorbet. The cherry blossom sorbet was one of my favorite desserts I've ever had. The service throughout the entire meal was phenomenal. Our server was super attentive, clearing plates as we finished and bringing out the next dish right on time. My only complaint would be that the restaurant was quite loud making it a little difficult for our entire group to hear each other but that's not something that Homer can really control. Overall, I'd absolutely go back to Homer for the feast. It was an awesome way to share a meal with friends.

Tucked away on Beacon Hill, this restaurant is great for special occasions/celebrations and larger groups, as it is on the more expensive side. Despite the smaller portions and higher prices, you get aesthetically plated food that is unique and tastes just as delicious as it looks. I went with my family, and we got a variety of dishes to share. The waiter had some helpful tips on how much food to order for a larger group, and recommended a few of their favorite menu items at the time. Homer's menu also is seasonal, which keeps things new and fresh if you go back later. My family loved the assortment of spreads we ordered, and the pita was warm and fresh. We got some of their meat dishes and seasonal vegetables and they all were cooked perfectly. I definitely want to go back to try some more of their items, especially their pistachio mousse, which I've heard is very flavorful. The one downside is parking can be tight, as there is just street parking, and this is a popular place to dine, so there might be a line when you arrive. I recommend getting there a little bit before they open, and while there might be a short line, the wait might not be as long as it would be later in the evening.

This place is perfect for a date time for foodies! We enjoyed trying all their dishes and the drinks were not too overbearing. I'm jealous my boyfriend always picks the prettiest drinks compared to me! The service was amazing. Black cod was super tender. The whipped garlic was to die for. It was so addicting. The lamb was tender, soft, and didn't taste gamey at all. The duck was decently good.

Homer is located on the strip of popular restaurants in Beacon Hill that doesn't take reservations for groups smaller than 6. I went with a friend around 6:30 PM on a weekday and there was a 25-ish minute wait. It's unfortunately going to be all street parking in the area, but you'll likely find a spot within a 5 minute walk. Their menu is Mediterranean inspired and very seasonal; so be warned, if there's a specific dish that caught your eye, it might not be available when you actually dine in. Value wise, it is expensive and the portions are not very big. I believe they recommend ~2 spreads, small dishes, and larger plates each for a party of two. Pita and sourdough isn't complimentary either, so you're definitely looking at a bill of $50+ per person and that's being quite conservative. Here's the good news though: the food is really stellar. I tried a whole range of items and have to say every spread I tried (Spring Allium Pistachio, Lamb Ragu on Tahini, and Whipped Garlic) was INCREDIBLE. Pita is fantastic as well. Both the Lamb Kebab and Roast Pork I tried were perfectly cooked and the unique flavor pairings for each dish are a home run every time. Definitely a meal to remember and a great option for special occasions. Last note, I actually didn't like the soft serve... The texture was fairly average and the strawberry was very artificial tasting. It was a shame because the chamomile, creme fresh option was super interesting, great balance between creamy and herbal. Honestly, I might just walk down the street to their sister restaurant of Milk Drunk for more consistency on dessert (plus they have chocolate shell and who can say no to that).
