Love it. It's basically just a place in the lobby of a nice hotel. Really nice ambience. Nice safari theme and beautiful fireplace in the eating area.…

Really good Hotel restaurant. Normally I don’t eat at hotel restaurants. About the only time I do is if I am just too tired to go out. To me eating at the hotel is sort of like going to Chili’s or Applebees when you are out of town when there are so many other places to go. I’ve stayed here a few time and have always been amazed as to how many people are always in the Safari room. The happy hour menu and bargain prices have always intrigued me but had never tried it.The place is good, the service is excellent, and their 3-course meal for $17.95 is probably subsidized just to get you in there and to buy some drinks, but for whatever reason this is a place you should try even when you aren’t staying at the hotel. They also advertise they will validate your valet parking if you eat here, so you can avoid the parking hassle downtown. Menu isn’t huge but all the choices look to be well thought out and good choices.Not a huge menu, and portions aren’t huge but they are good and definitely a full meal for $17.95. Deserts are in tiny cups but are a nice completion to the dinner. Upscale crowd, good service. I haven’t been to the $6 lunch but after having the $17.95 dinner I’m guessing it is also a fantastic deal. This isn’t meant to be a back handed compliment, I just really really don’t like hotel restaurants so am biased against them, but this one is the exception, it actually is a good restaurant that happens to be in a hotel.
Nice menu, smallish portions. I’ve been to Palm Court Grill and The Peacock Room several times, but I haven’t eaten at S.R. in at least 5 years so was really looking forward to dinner, and a show at the Bing. The short booths are a comfy size for two, I hate those skinny deuces in most restaurants. Beer is served in mugs which we’re not sure holds 20 ozs but happy hour makes them cheaper so that’s good. The menu has some fun things like fried okra and Southern fried chicken. I ordered those and my honey had the fish and chips. I’ve heard if you fry okra it’s not slimy. I think now it’s unavoidable. Let’s call it a one-time trial. The fish was fresh- tasting and had the same batter as the chicken so you can tell it was not pre- battered. I wouldn’t expect any less here. Coleslaw is very fresh and crunchy, the dressing is just right. Don’t let the appearance deceive you. The mashed potato and gravy tasted just like I wanted; fresh, real, but not nearly enough of it! Too few -skinny- asparagus is typical for this kind of plating and tasted great, but I was hoping to dig into an awesome pile of southern gluttony and real value. The chicken was tasty but the thigh piece was red, underdone inside. I showed it to Jill, she asked if we wanted anything else (No, our show is starting), okay here’s your bill, have a good night. (??) We will be back however for happy hour and a few other enticing things on the menu.
Seriously?? Watered down soup and rubbery shrimp? And they think this is a fine dining place in Spokane?? What a waste of my time and money.
Tarzan like sliders. Six bucks for lunch! Excellent service in the bar – Server even asked before putting lemon in our water, which I really appreciated. 80’s dcor, 90’s music, 70’s price.
Great Lunch Specials. Best $6 lunch I ever had. Two pulled pork sliders with fries. Service and food was great
Best lunch downtown or maybe in town period! Great 6$ lunch specials, had them all and love them all. Clam chowder on Friday to die for!
Don’t Bother With This Place. New York attitudes exist in Spokane – here at the Safari Lounge. My wife and I brought my my niece, 23 years old, to the Safari and she was refused service despite showing two photo ID’s from her home country. The waitress required a passport!!! With all of the foreign visitors at the Davenport, is it possible that this is the policy of the hotel? In the past I have bragged about the Davenport to our frequent visitors from outside the US. Trust me, that will no longer be the case. In addition, my wife and I will be patronizing other great restaurants in Spokane.
