Fire Your Waitstaff!!!!
When this place first opened, we had many a great night sipping quality cocktails at the bar. The last couple of times I have been there, however, and had the misfortune of sitting in the dining room/bar tables, I have been soooo sorely disappointed. The service is ambivalent, slow, unapologetic (apparently there's always reason to apologize-mistake after mistake) and frustrating. I am tired of cold food, "kitchen errors", i.e. waitress forgot to fire order, slow service and a complete lack of friendly customer service. I won't go back. Ever. Especially with Liberty just right down the street, a MUCH better choice.

Crab cakes!
We went to this place around 5:00PM for the happy hour. We ordered the crab cakes and chicken sausage & shrimp satays. The description on the menu said "three small crab cakes," so we expected them to be very very tiny, considering it was just $4 a plate. But, they weren't as small as we expected. Great deal for $4. They were not greasy at all and had OK amount of crab meat. One regret was that we ended up paying $6 for a glass of beer. It wasn't the restaurant's fault though. My husband asked the bartender what kind of stout they had, and the bartender listed Guinness and two other beers, so he ordered Guinness, thinking that was a draft, which is $3 during the happy hour. It wasn't! It was $6... oh well, that was our mistake...

Service is ruining the place
Okay, I wrote before about giving them a break about the service b/c they were new --back then. Went with friends for dinner this time and it took about an hour for the fries--thought they had forgotten them. The waitress was truly clueless-the place was not even crowded as an excuse. The other food-- which came before the fries which were meant to be an appetizer to share--was cold. Seriously, I want to love this place-it's right in the neighborhood, has great drinks and atmosphere-but please guys fire your wait staff before it's too late and your rep. is completely ruined!

Service was slow, in fact pathetic! Never coming back!
I decided to give it one last try at 22 Doors and I really wish I had not. Service was pretentious and slow as if they were doing me a favor by waiting on me. I really have to say I will never come back here nor recomend it to anyone. I have had better service at the IHOP if that explains anything to you. I wish I would have read the reviews of 22 Doors before coming back, that many people cant be wrong.

Good for a Cocktail with Date
I went here on a date and we each had two martinis. It was average, I don't remember anything overly good or bad about the place.

Great cocktails, outstanding french fries, mediocre entree
I ordered the flank steak medium, and my girlfriend ordered her burger medium rare. Both came to our table well done. The flank steak was more like chuck, and I couldn't chew more than half of it before I ran out of energy. I ended up taking it home but handing it off to someone who was asking for food. But the cocktails were lovely: my girlfriend had the blueberry mojito and thought she'd died and gone to heaven. And the fries are truly excellent. Our friend both had veggie burgers, which they apparently make by hand--they were really good and came with the fabulous fries. That's what I would order if I go back for more than cocktails. The atmosphere was nice, though. And although I know others have had less than stellar service, our server was very attentive and thoughtful. Overall, I'll go back for drinks but only order food if I'm lazy and don't want to go elsewhere after a few drinks.

New gun in the kitchen. Lovely Staff.
Well I don't know where these negative reviews come from. I tried to see if they were just cranks and decided they were. As an owner you sure hate to see someone walk away mad from your place and then get thier frustrations out online. It should be easy to discern hooey from real life though if you just pay attention. Anyone whose only written one review EVER and uses phrase like " I've had better service at Ihop" is just out for revenge and hopes to do a business harm. Probably an ex-employee who got CAUGHT ripping the place off or SLEEPING on his/her shift. (you know who you are) So.. read reviews with a grain of salt. You don't have to actually like food or people to write a review on citysearch. Too bad.

The only place I haven't left a tip in 10 years
Wow, this place was really a bummer. Poor food and worse service. I went when they first opened and thought maybe it was just a fluke, went back about 2 weeks ago for brunch. My huevos rancheros tasted like the beans came from a mix and the eggs were totally hard boiled! We could never get the waiter to return and they had plenty of staff for the size. Too bad, it would be nice to have another good option up there.

Amateur hour...
People seem to like this place for drinks, and I have been once at night and had an alright experience. However, I highly recommend you give the brunch a miss. Firstly, the decor is all over the map and doesn't present well in daylight. I've been twice, the first time they over cooked the eggs in my eggs benedict (hard as a rock, I'd asked for them runny) when they brought me a new plate, this time the eggs were barely cooked, the whites were transparent in parts, yuck! How about somewhere in between? It's an egg, who can't cook an egg? We tried again last weekend and my husband was told what he wanted wasn't available, so he ordered pancakes, but with regular butter, not the orange butter they use. They came with the orange butter. Try again. They come back with another stack, regular butter this time, but no syrup. He had to get up from the table to find a waitperson to ask for the syrup. They bring it, but it turns out to be honey. Hunt for waitperson again. We're told they are out of syrup and that's what the kitchen came up with. They're across the street from a QFC, send someone over! Gaaack. No wonder people wait for 40 minutes to get into Coastal Kitchen rather then go to 22 Doors where there's no wait. Next time I'll do the same.

Great drink (if a bit pricey), but the food is always a downer
I popped into 22 doors last night to have a cocktail and grab a bit to eat. The drink was great, but the food was terribly disappointing. I got the grilled cheese and butternut squash soup appetizer. The sandwich was fine, but the soup was horrifying. It had the consistance of water and tasted like undercook potatos. It would take a lot to convince me that it had any squash in it at all!

What's not to love about cocktails on the patio?
I recently returned here and enjoyed the patio, cocktails, and friendly service. I'm already planning the next trip back!
