Skål Beer Hall - Restaurant in Seattle - 5429 Ballard Ave NW, USA

Great food and drinks as well as atmosphere and service. The cocktail I chose was the Knotty Viking made with caraway aquavit. It was delicious - great flavors, perfect amount of everything and the honeydew really completes it. My friends even ordered one for themselves after trying mine. For food I ordered a salmon skewer and asparagus. We planned on hopping around Ballard so I just got some starters, but they were very nicely done and quite satiating! I love salmon for a quick healthy protein and they cooked it just right, not dry at all and it comes with a lemon wedge. The asparagus were meaty and tender too, just the right amount of salt & pepper. Friendly attentive staff, atmosphere was nice, food timing was perfect and pricing was on point.

I really like this place. I've been a handful of times with little groups and really large groups and it's always been great. The food is tasty, I've never had bad service and most recently the handled 30 of my friends during a birthday party with no problem at all!!! Such a great time.

First I must say… wow! With amble indoor and outdoor seating you won’t have to worry not having a view as every inch of this treasure is dripping in aesthetic. The details in the atmosphere alone is worth a visit. The staff is not only pleasant, they are absolutely on it. Especially the chefs! *insert chefs kiss here* Food is truly the star of the show. My burger had a true conversation of flavor in every bite. The duck hearts will be on my always order list, I just can’t recommend them enough. A burst flavor that mellows into a fresh spring song can easily describe the cocktail I had. Thank you so incredibly much for this experience, I’ll be returning and making it a regular recommendation for a date night spot.

The food is awesome! I especially like their skewers and cauliflower bites! They have Jarl's Platter which is all skewers. Duck heart and farmer’s cheese with Apple sauce are amazingly good! They have variety of cocktails. We tried different ones, all are tasty 👍 For the wings, we choose Korean buffalo sauce. Very spicy but tastes good!

We had such a memorable meal here!! My friends and I have Northern European roots, so we were super excited to check this place out on a recent trip to Seattle. The skewer platter was unbelievable, don’t miss out on the farmer’s cheese and the duck hearts! The vibe was so relaxed and welcoming. The service was superb. Wish I lived closer and could take advantage of the membership deal!! Huge thanks to Cody who went above and beyond when I left my postcards at the bar by mistake! Can’t wait to return soon. Thank you so much, Skål!

I love Skal!! I had a large Viking feast for my birthday and it was beyond my expectations. Food was delicious, good service. I love that they have mead on tap.

I was a little disappointed that the chicken wings had left the menu. **Edit** definitely have to check the menu before heading over next time since this changes periodically** Otherwise though, their skewers are still really good. I chose the Venison and Salmon skewers with a side of the asparagus and was very happy with them. The bar area is cozy and the staff are friendly.

This is a great place. The food is fantastic. The drinks are superb. Our Server Abby was super helpful and kind, and made great recommendations for food and drinks.
