About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Neighborhood gem
Joule, the first restaurant from celebrated husband and wife cooking team Rachel Yang and Seif Chirchi, is re-located in October, 2012 to the innovative, newly developed the Fremont Collective in Seattle’s Wallingford/Fremont neighborhood. From its original opening in 2007, Joule has cultivated a loyal dining fan base and captured the attention of an admiring local and national media captivated by the couple’s unique, modern perspective on Korean cuisine. Joule, the mature sibling to Yang and Chirchi’s restaurant, Revel, highlights Korea’s love of beef featuring unconventional cuts accompanied by distinctive and shareable side dishes.

Joule takes reservations for 1.75-3 hour time slots (depending on party size). We do our best to accommodate as many guests as possible and ask that you are considerate of other diners at the end of your meal. If you feel that your party requires more time, please let us know in the notes and we will get back to you with our available accommodations.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Rachel Yang

From the OpenTable editors: This neighborhood charmer from multi-James Beard Award-nominated chefs Rachel Yang and Seif Chirchi is where you go for refined Korean steakhouse fare with a Pacific Northwestern twist. Dishes like Gochujang lamb adobo with green curry pea puree exemplify the wife-and-husband team’s bold flavors rooted in classic techniques. Watch them work from an open kitchen in the inviting space, complete with handmade wallpaper and communal seating that make every meal feel like a lively dinner party.

                      It was the most disappointing dinner and experience and I used to go to Joule since they’ve first opened in Wallingford on 45th street, almost 15 yrs ago. Sad!

                      Very happy repeat customers. We brough friends from Chicago and they loved it. Especially the spicy rice cakes and exquisite seasonal asparagus w gochujang hollandaise, and of course the fabulous cocktails. The staff was lovely as always.
