“This is one of the best places to eat. The owner is wonderful and the staff as well. The food is awesome! We love to go here and will continue to!”
“My absolute favorite Italian restaurant in Seattle. The food is consistently outstanding, and the team is incredibly warm and welcoming.
I highly recommend the focaccia, the olives, the fazzoletto, negroni nuts, tagliatelle and taking a chance on the seasonal special, it has never disappointed. Every dish I’ve tried has been exceptional.
I also just had the seasonal strawberry olive cake, and it was incredible, perfectly moist, rich, and full of beautifully balanced flavors.
I can’t recommend this place enough!

“If I lived in Seattle def would be my go to restaurant. Amazing service and incredible food. Highly recommend the Dutch Baby. Salmon Salad Sandwich and French Onion Soup! Do you deliver to Ohio?? 😁”
“The atmosphere is superb! I love the heathy option. Remember your input matters. You cannot expect same output (outcome) when you are putting bad inputs. Self-care by eating healthy food option. This is a place for those who take their body seriously. The staffs tend to be busy but it is worth the wait. I can see that they really do care about the food and its service. Btw I even saw @spencerhawes NBA player order here. Which means foods are good here. Sport players know what tastes good! Come and taste!”

“Fantastic meal. Fantastic service! I was very impressed with the owners care for my family and interest in their enjoyment of their meal. We will definitely be back. The place was packed and should continue to be.”
“Great pastry!! Delicious coffee! Highly recommend to visit!”
“Great hot dogs and hamburgers! Will definitely put this place in the rotation.”
“The Five point cafe is a true Seattle classic. The atmosphere is authentic, lively, and full of character. The food was hearty, delicious, and served in generous portions, exactly what you’d expect from a legendary diner.
If you are looking for a genuine Seattle experience with great comfort food and a unique local vibe, this place is it. I like it!”
“Great service. Food was delicious. We had the Buffalo and Honey Garlic flavor wings. They both were delicious. Generous crinkle fries and delicious pineapple mango lemonade. We were excited to find a late night spot with delicious food. Definitely a great find. And great service.”
“Overall a great experience here! Came in for Happy Hour on a weekday afternoon. There was no wait, and Happy Hour options are really good. We got the chicken broth and spicy broth. Both broths were really good 👍”
“I went to their Seattle location for Cinco de Mayo. I had their mango margarita and their breakfast burrito with carnitas. Both were delicious! They have artwork available for purchase and I saw a couple I’d like to buy for myself. I will have to go back and do that.”

“I have the great luck of eating home cooked Thai and Cambodian food so my opinion is colored by regional home cooked meals. With that, Phnom Penh Noodle House serves up traditional and deliciois Cambodian foods in generous portions at reasonable prices. The servers and wait staff are friendly, skilled, and easy to chat with. You will find three generational dining at many of tables and it reminds me of attending a family event. Come for the great food and come back for the easy going atmosphere.”
“Authentic, fresh, and entirely delicious. The homemade cannelloni pasta noodles and filling were absolute perfection! Fantastic marinara! And the pizza… amazing. So much for leftovers! And I haven’t even mentioned the kindness of all of the staff. Can’t wait to come back to this gem!”
“IMO 4 stars is quite generous.
Service was great. Starters and small plates were fantastic. But the mains we got (steak + chicken) were lacking. The chicken was overcooked/dry and the sauce was way too salty. The steak was not tender - not sure what cut it was but it wasn’t great; the sauce for it was also too salty. For the price of the mains I expected higher quality. Maybe the duck or fish would be better?”
“After having been to Driftwood twelve times I can confidently say it’s the only restaurant in Seattle worth dining at. Lots of places make claims about freshness and local ingredients, but chef Dan Mallahan shops at the Farmers Market two days a week. It’s not a joke or a gimmick. If you want to eat food grown exclusively in Washington State, that tastes real, then Driftwood is the spot. They serve tomatoes that actually have flavor, delicious veggie dishes, and meat and fish that are tender and juicy. They combine so many flavors in a subtle harmony making each bite you take delightful. Not to mention the killer cocktails. The vibe is beautiful but chill. The staff are lovely and kind. Everything about Driftwood is real. The food, the people, even the hand towels in the bathroom. Concerned about prices at a farm-to-table restaurant and getting enough to eat? Go with a friend and share two starters and a main. For example, I just had the Olsen Farm Kennebec JoJos, the Piece by Piece Farm Tempura Delicata squash, and the Butcher’s Cut Pork Chop. Yum!”
“The food and service are phenomenal. We’ve eaten the entire menu twice over over the course of several trips and every single thing is excellent. The family is so lovely and we love that they’re kid friendly. The meat and three is a great value for the amount of food and easily feeds two adults and a toddler. Cannot recommend Zax enough.”

“Tried this very special “takeout only omakase sushi box”, Edomae style ( use cured/aged fish, and red vinegar seasoning in rice). The executive chef, chef Ryo, has worked in many renowned restaurant including Michelin star sushi restaurant “Sushi Sho”. Before joining this new restaurant “Ltd Edition Sushi” in capitol hill, he worked side by side with chef Nakazawa-an icon of edomae style in Japan, at both Sushi Sho Tokyo and Sushi Sho Honolulu. The sushi omakase box and kids fish bowl are both very sophisticated, the curing and aging techniques brings out the deep complex flavor of each fish and gives each fish this extra tender texture, the taste profile as such is hard to find here in Seattle. Chef sake flight ( we tried Haneya Junmai Ginjo and Hidakami Junmai today), one is floral and one on the dry side, pair with his sushi very well. Sushi is in a very elegant wooden box and everything you will need for the experience including a separate soy sauce dipping dish is prepared for the guest. This is, truly, a perfect omakase takeout experience. 💕💕😋”
“Your food and drinks are amazing! Had a burger with a BUN for the first time in a VERY long time! I'd pretty much given up on gluten free buns. The peach sour and the beer was delish! Felt so good to know I could eat anything on the menu and not worry about any cross contamination!”
“the food was delicious! with a hidden menu inside..bangsilog...oxtail and Kare kare to name a few. however it does not beat the personal interaction with Tito Greg!”

“Shhhhh Seattle its the Best 2am Fried Chicken.
When you have a secret place to get 'better than KFC' chicken, open 24 hours, you kinda don't wanna post or tell anyone. Took me 5+ years to share this. I just tell everyone go to Ezells or Heaven Sent but they won't be open 24 hrs. I'll be hitting the 🐚 late night. Crunk Fried Chicken, yep.”
“Ba ya nana milk shakes. I repeat ! ! 💛 B. A. N. A. N. A. M. I. L. K. 💛 S. H. A. K. E. S. 💛 ! ! ! The best thing life can offer. Milk shakes are always Tall, COLD, creamy, and you can tell they use a premium syrup. Not to mention a real quality ice cream. Love! 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛”
“Definitely a hidden gem in the city. Love this spot, an amazing space with amazing people. Definitely a laid back environment with things to do, but more of a hang out spot than a stuffy space where you’re supposed to be somebody. Love this space, thank you Matt!”

“The best steak i have ever had !! Everything was sooo good! All the salsas were delicious. Loved it ! You gotta have dessert.. arroz con leche!”
Takeout Restaurants
“One of my favorite Japanese restaurants (not to mention the oldest in Seattle) and it has never disappointed me. The food is delicious and the service is friendly and warm. It’s a difficult time we are in with the pandemic of 2020, but Maneki has transitioned to take out, which it never did before, and is so organized that it blew my mind when I saw how clearly labeled each item was when I got home. I could easily tell which was part of the teishoku 定食 or “set meal.” Support this small business because it needs us now more than ever. 01 DEC 2020.”
“My first day in my new city and as I walked around trying to find what I needed and came across a sign leading me here. The barista was kind and listened to my story. The pastry was amazing with tons of cinnamon and the mocha, just what I needed to move on with my move in.”
“Absolutely charming little spot serving fresh, perfectly seasoned dishes that are sure to please. Excellent and knowledgeable staff can make recommendations from the ever-changing menu based on your tastes, and it's easy to have almost any dish modified to be vegetarian or vegan. Perusing the tasting notes on the wine wall is a nice way to pass the time - great prices on the take-home bottles. If you're on a budget (and I usually am), grab a snack or two. Otherwise, try a little of everything!”
“Great niche spot at the end of the waterfront front in Seattle. Amazing patio, comfortable bar seats, laid back and good vibes... and obviously the beer is amazing!
Friendly staff, and the food is on point 💯
Plus, they will put on the sports ball game if you are a sports nerd like me 🤓”
“A very nice experience today with nice service and nice ambience. I'm not a big sushi fan but there are many other nice options too here. 5 out of 5.”
“Nothing but love for a local chicken joint with nothing but love for me and mine. ❤️ fantastic atmosphere, good music, good food! Try the honey butter biscuit fried chicken sandwich, with some hot sauce, your soul will thank you. Much love to all of the staff there, y'all have saved my behind and fed my soul, more than I care to admit.”

“Aroom is the best Vietnamese coffee in Seattle! Even tho they are always busy and full of life they make sure to take care of all their customers! I messed up my online order today and they made my drinks again and didn’t charge me again. Their service is top notch and everyone should make sure to visit aroom when they’re around Seattle or their other location up north!”
“I went to their Seattle location for Cinco de Mayo. I had their mango margarita and their breakfast burrito with carnitas. Both were delicious! They have artwork available for purchase and I saw a couple I’d like to buy for myself. I will have to go back and do that.”
“Food is excellent ! I always get the wings they literally melt in your mouth and are just so flavorful! My sister brung me here and I’ve been back 5+times by myself since lol ! TRY IT ! I also tried the pena colada’s drink and omg it was soooo delicious”
“Bartender was cool and let us order food and a beer, even though they were dead and it was 20 min. To closing. The fact that all of the fake meats and cheese sauces are house made makes it so much better than many vegan spots. Yum!”
Fine Dining
“I was in town for a special event, I haven't been here before and was amazed with every aspect of my experience. our server Charles was utterly fabulous. he was very knowledgeable, thoughtful and prompt. he made it feel like we were old friends. the steaks were perfectly cooked. I am 4 and 1/2 years sober, and to go out and enjoy an exquisite meal and only drink water can be a drag, but you all had an amazing selection of mocktails, my partners and I enjoyed immensely. I took the time to thank Charles for everything and got to meet Justin, letting him know how wonderful everything was. this will definitely be a regular stop anytime I visit.”
“Service is ON POINT !!!! Food is amazing and our waitress is amazing ! We had to bring our little one last min because child care wasn’t available. But they kindly accommodate my little one and gave her some cooked sushi !!! We really appreciate it ! We definitely will come back for a different menu because their menu changes every month ! I recommend anyone coming over to try it if they want an authentic Japanese meal in Seattle !!!”
“We surprised our daughter for an early 32nd birthday. The four of us had an incredible time laughing and being awestruck at the talented performers. These were first rate acts of singing, dancing, acrobatics, athleticism and grace. The venue, service, atmosphere was electric. We loved every bit of it! Worth the money and the food was excellent. An experience we’ll talk about for weeks.”
“A great spot for authentic kaiseki in Seattle. The dishes are creative and the presentation is thoughtful, extending to the beautiful ceramics and plating. It’s a quiet, intimate space that’s perfect for a focused meal or a date. Service was excellent and professional. They apply an automatic 20% service charge but don’t ask for tips on top of that, which simplifies the end of the meal. I’m looking forward to returning.”
“This guy Derek is literally a pizza genius. The salads and pizzas are so phenomenal!!!! Absolutely love it. Would’ve taken a picture but the pizza was gone so fast. Definitely get the ranch! 10/10 recommend”
“The food was phenomenal! Authentic, flavorful and so delicious. My mind was blown the whole night. Their mocktails and sweet tea are amazing! We will definitely be coming back!”
“Fantastic meal. Fantastic service! I was very impressed with the owners care for my family and interest in their enjoyment of their meal. We will definitely be back. The place was packed and should continue to be.”
Cheap Eats
“Love it! Worth the wait every single time.. they have rotating flavors...so you might not see the flavors that some reviews have posted about. Ube coconut is my all-time favorite though. You can ask for samples before you commit. You can mix 2 favors in a small cup and upto 3 different flavors in a large cup. The special favors I posted here are Fifa world cup specials. :)”
“I visited this sandwich shop and really enjoyed it. The sandwiches were fresh, tasty, and made with good-quality ingredients. The service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere was casual and clean. It’s a great place for a quick and satisfying meal. I would definitely come back again.”
“Musang is absolutely some of the best Filipino food you will ever have. They put their heart on the plate and it's an experience to remember. I'll be back.🥰”
“Great food and drinks plus excellent service… What’s not to like? 🥳”
“Our food at the Von's Woodinville was outstanding and received great service from Ella. We hope she will be adding a star to her collection.”
“Large portions of the most buttery steaks and pork we have ever had. Real Japanese A5 wagyu grilled for you on the table.”
“This place is a gem! Go now! It's outside of the fray of the market. The staff is so kind and attentive. A lovely break from sightseeing.”
“My lovely wife and I have had the zeal of investing with Mr Aaron Soriano also analysing our investment is secure & safe. Aaron Soriano professionalism, Hard-works, understanding and compassion towards everything had us feeling like he was part of the family. He has an infectious bubbly personality that you just can't help but open up to him.”
“NEKO Cat Cafe is such a fun, feel-good spot in Seattle. You come for the coffee, but honestly, you stay for the cats. The space is bright, clean, and thoughtfully set up so the cats can roam freely while guests relax.
The drinks are solid, but the real highlight is spending time with adoptable cats in a calm, cozy setting. It’s a cute date idea, a stress-reliever after a long day, or just a sweet way to support animal adoption while enjoying a coffee.”
“This place is so good, food and drinks are on point! Definitely recommend for a romantic couple or a get together with friends.”
“Delicious lunch and sold us some pastrami to take home! Friendly and fun place to catch a bite.”
“Our meal at Cinque Terre was amazing. That was seriously some of the best pesto I've ever had. My husband's boar pasta had plenty of meat in the sauce. The pasta was fresh. And they even had some good mocktails - as a non-drinker, I appreciate when a restaurant takes the time to create drinks that make me feel welcomed. The atmosphere was peaceful - not too loud in any way. I would absolutely recommend this place”

“The food is always very good. We come here every time we’re in town to visit our husky at UW. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. A bit pricey.”
“The vibes are immaculate. The interior is gorgeous, the staff were super great and so sweet with my kids, the entire menu looks delicious. I’m so excited y’all are back. ❤️❤️”
“Excellent food. Wonderful service .. Recommend The Shambles steaks… all of them🙃”
“With out any doubt this is best restaurant I have ever had the pleasure of being at in the world. OMG this place is so well organised. The staff are absolutely brilliant. This place is a special visit for everyone. Book early to avoid disappointment.”

“Hands down, the best pho you’ll find in Seattle! This place is killing it! I’m incredibly lucky to live in the neighborhood and I’ve been coming here since the day they opened. We were one of their first guests in those early days and eat here so much the owners know me by name! If I were qualified to give food awards, this place would win my 2024 Best of Seattle award! 🥇👏🏻✨ Ps. They do not accept reservations - it’s first come first serve. Around 6pm, they go on a waitlist and a line starts to form outside. Don’t bother calling to get on the waitlist - they won’t even do that for me! You have to show up in person to get on the list.”
“Lovely people, wonderful food, friendly atmosphere, open in the evenings, vegetarian options, right in my neighborhood. So glad they’re here!”
“This is a small, pricey, restaurant. Dishes served family style. Reservations recommended. Great food, very professional service. Liked everything we tried, especially the salad, the pork belly and the chicken.”
“Best sushi. Joe is an exceptional sushi chef. His support staff are incredible. Vintage stereo equipment and vinyl records on the walls. Don’t miss out.”
“this place is awesome. good food, good drinks, good service. dang, Seattle , you got some good food.”

“I've been dreaming about the Black Walnut Old Fashion since my friend visited and ordered it about a year ago. Finally found myself in the neighborhood last weekend and I'm so glad I stopped by for one. It was the little heaven I had dreamed of. 11/10”
“We fell in love with the food and staff at the West Seattle commissary (and miss them very much) but just recently visited their wonderful new storefront space on Greenwood in Shoreline! We're big fans of the Khao Man tofu and the Khao Man Gai (Hainan simmered chicken, like I had growing up in Hong Kong), and of course the Thai tea, and mango sticky rice. Patty just introduced us to the corn fritters which were amazing. We discovered it's the best place to detour to avoid I-5 traffic coming home from Bellingham. Don't miss this place for a delicious lunch or dinner!!”
“Everything!! Well maybe not the licor de hierbas. I’m gallega, A Coruña, and I went to try it out anticipating it was not going to be good or authentic. I have to admit I was very wrong, I loved it! Highly recommend it and surely be back. Thank you Pilar for giving me the flavors of my childhood!”
“We've been searching for a pizza place that has pies that are crispy (or at least not soggy) in the middle. We ordered a whole sausage pizza and a slice of the pepperoni. Sausage was very soggy in the middle, outer crust was good though, crispy and soft. Sausage was pretty spicy and some of the broccoli rabe on it was bitter. The pepperoni was typical in taste and center crust was better and didn't droop when picked up. We had the chopped salad which was pretty tasty. It wasn't as chopped up as other chopped salads that I've had; more like a regular salad. I had the Japanese Slipper cocktail which was very good and my husband had a beer. Our bill was over $80, so a bit pricey for a pizza lunch. Service was order at the bar and they bring food/drinks out to you where seating is open, so not full service. Street parking in the area was hard to find. We ended up parking in a pay lot on N 35th St. and walking through AB Ernst Park and down some stairs to Tivoli.”
“Wow! Perfect dining experience. Friendly staff, amazing food and drinks, fun atmosphere, I highly recommend this place! 🙏”
“Their food is some of the best in Seattle. If you haven’t been there, you need to go and experience 84 Yesler. On par with the finest dining around.”
“Gnudi and Black and Blue Tart were amazing. Swordfish was not worth the $42.”
“We had an amazing dinner at a specialty pizza restaurant in Seattle named Sunny Hill. It’s a little hole in the wall that has the best Pizza and appetizers in Washington. If you’re ever in the area, make sure to check it out. It was so good to be with the family and finish up some details for today’s big event.”
“Sushi was AMAZING! Very high quality. Wish I took a picture of the uni, it was excellent. They brought out a free matcha tiramisu and it was so so yummy. Great service and great food.”
“We happened upon the Diller room on our way back from Pikes Place market … what an unexpected but fantastic stop! If you love bourbon (and we DO) this lovely historic bar is a must visit. The bottle selection is exceptional, and Shawn our bartender provided great pours and the most welcoming attitude despite how busy he was!! A true gem of an experience in the emerald city!”
“It is always a challenge for me to eat Asian food of any type, as I cannot eat any soy sauce. We went to this restaurant on Wednesday evening and back again on Friday for lunch. To say they worked with us on my allergy would be an understatement. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I had amazing food and a wonderful experience! Tye (sp) took care of us on the first visit. You would be hard pressed to find a better server. Each recommendation given turned out to be wonderful. I just cannot say enough good things about this place. Please go check them out! You will not be disappointed.”
“Our first visit was yesterday for lunch and we had Chicken Xiao Long Bao, Chicken pan-fried potstickers, Chicken and Vegetable Won-tons in sweet and sour sauce and Spicy (Ma la) noodles.....all were very good! The service was excellent and we enjoyed the whole experience!!”
“Do yourself a favor — EAT AT LOTUS POND. (1) Carpool to Lotus Pond. The more the merrier. (2) Appetizers: You can’t lose. Everything is good. Me? I eat the Imperial Rolls. Get two orders of the egg rolls aka Imperial Rolls — one order won’t be enough for 2 people. Start there, you’ll be very happy. Also order the pork belly on the skewers please, No regrets. It’s very good. (3) Noodle Soups. Every bowl Is a winner. Pho is great, no question there. However, you absolutely must eat the SEAFOOD with special Red Noodle. (4) Early enough during the day, drink the Viet Ice Coffee. (5) Too bad they don’t have enough staff/hands to make the BANH CUON but they make up for it in many ways. Try everything on the menu. I’m not a relative. I don’t get money or fame for recommending Lotus Pond. I just know authentic good food when I see and eat it. Try it. You will leave with a full, joyous stomach … you will be very satisfied. Happy eating!”
“Walked by the night before and didn't have time to pop in after work, but took note of the cool looking new spot in GTown. Checked out the menu and my mind (and belly) wouldn't allow me to go another day without experiencing the enoki fritters, so a late lunch ensued with fritters and street corn today. Ridiculously tasty, will be back with friends and family to try the rest of the menu and I'm sure you'll be serving my coworkers (repeatedly) as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Great spot with delectable fried chicken and waffles. Had the side of hashbrowns to cap it off, big plate full of delicious food. Friendly and warm place to be. Thanks!”
“The best pizza in Seattle. We had the Mushroom Pizza and the Broccoli. Driving from Burien to Leschi on a Friday night and it was well worth it. this is our new pizza spot.”
“Hands down! Thanks Agelegil best lega Tibs ever. Best customer service, definitely will be back!!”
“Best Chicken Tikka Marsala ever! Our new favorite Indian restaurant.”
“IMO 4 stars is quite generous.
Service was great. Starters and small plates were fantastic. But the mains we got (steak + chicken) were lacking. The chicken was overcooked/dry and the sauce was way too salty. The steak was not tender - not sure what cut it was but it wasn’t great; the sauce for it was also too salty. For the price of the mains I expected higher quality. Maybe the duck or fish would be better?”
“excellent sushi! everything was fresh and delicious! highly recommend checking them out!”
“They have a Peaches & French Toast special that is out of this world delicious!!”
“Amazing Mediterranean food with fresh ingredients, great flavors, and generous portions. Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and excellent value. Highly recommend!”
“An exceptional wine bar. A very intentional space created for intimate conversations and connections to be made. I went here with my friend for her birthday and it was such a relaxing and fun environment. You’ll have to look at the menu board, but if you don’t know what to drink, ask! They are so well-verse in their menu selection and have great recommendations. We had a true girl dinner, a full charcuterie board with glasses of red wine. Everyone, including the patrons, are so nice! You can definitely start a conversation at the bar counter and make a new friend. The owner, David, has created such an incredible space attracting such genuine people and will offer you life advice if you want it or just amazing cheese recommendations. You won’t regret coming here!”
“the vibe inside is really homey. the price point is great. I was able to comfortably order a few things to try. I also think the portions were good. the duck ragu was very good. I enjoyed that plate very much. the sauce pairs with the duck very well. it's fork licking good. the carbonara I didn't care for, I didn't finish it. it didn't taste quite balanced. also my pasta was under cooked. I checked to see if maybe I was given buccatini on accident but no, it was just underdone spaghetti. overall, I'll try it again. my experience I think was good for a first visit”
“We absolutely loved the food, the people, and the history - what an experience! Thank you for an unforgettable night!”
“The store's service is attentive and the workmanship is very detailed and painstaking.”
“What a wonderful experience! Super friendly staff and the Three Milk Cuban Flan was AMAZING.”
“I can highly recommend the pig feast! The food was all very tasty and there was plenty of it, you could not leave without a full belly if you tried. There were community seating options as well as bar and the usual small table. I met some neat folks and had a good chat.
This is not a downside but it's worth noting that the event started at 7 but the food was not served until 7:50. Maybe that is by design, to give people a chance to sit down and have a drink and chat a bit. If I had been a solo diner or on a time schedule I would have been peeved, The food was self-serve, which is great, although when it came to the pig that meant working your way around the bones. It might be wise to use a de-boned pig next time, although if that ruins the 'whole suckling pig' theme then leave it as is.
I hear they also do a salmon feast and something around Thanksgiving, so I'm sure I will be back!”
“I was in town for a special event, I haven't been here before and was amazed with every aspect of my experience. our server Charles was utterly fabulous. he was very knowledgeable, thoughtful and prompt. he made it feel like we were old friends. the steaks were perfectly cooked. I am 4 and 1/2 years sober, and to go out and enjoy an exquisite meal and only drink water can be a drag, but you all had an amazing selection of mocktails, my partners and I enjoyed immensely. I took the time to thank Charles for everything and got to meet Justin, letting him know how wonderful everything was. this will definitely be a regular stop anytime I visit.”
“Maharaja has been our go-to for delicious Indian food for years! They've always been family-friendly, super attentive and the food is amazing. Over the years the decor has gotten nicer, with an even easier to read menu, and the food is amazing! Highly recommended!”

“Fantastic sandwiches — but be prepared to hunt for parking. We ordered the Grindhouse, a Mortadella, classic Salami, stacked with Dijon mustard, mayo, shredded iceberg, house made dill pickles, provolone, and a bright red wine vinaigrette, all on a perfectly chewy demi baguette. Every bite was balanced and delicious in a cute space. Downside for older guests is the unmanned Kiosk to order. No opportunity to ask about the sandwiches and then after ordering yourself the kiosk asks for a tip! And parking, however, was nearly impossible. We ended up in a garage that cost more than the sandwich itself. Still, the food was excellent — just go when you have patience (or a chauffeur).”
“We visited Local Bigger Burger yesterday and were thoroughly impressed. The availability of halal options made the meal even more enjoyable. We tried the sriracha burger, Smash, Bacon Cheddar, chicken wings, and jalapeño poppers—all packed with great flavor—and the fries were perfectly crisp. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend giving this place a try.”
“My husband introduced me to Tai Tung shortly after we were married 60 years ago. My sons grew up eating there and much later my granddaughter did too. The food is exquisite, especially shrimp in crab sauce, the service is impeccable and the ambiance is kind of old fashioned and comfortable. In fact, Tai Tung is and always has been virtually the best restaurant in Seattle.”
“Overall pizza is made fresh, with a nice golden crust and the toppings are always fresh and flavorful. Manager and staff are very friendly and personable. I want to give a special shout out to the wife (Rokiyah) of the owner. she is very humble and very accommodating with the last-minute orders. You will not regret ordering at this pizza place. I keep going back for more.”
“What a treat. Very appealing at so many levels. Service, greeter, wait staff. Food and wine appeals to our tastes. Will be back soon having our 65th university we have been to a few retardants. We did luck out parking some one just left a spot for us (score) coming from Tulalip we surprised ourselves to handle parallel parking 1st time. Already scheduling our next visit. ummmm Trip home a beautiful fall afternoon along Puget the sound.”
“Our first time visiting. Our server, Mason was attentive, funny, knowledgeable and helped us choose the best appetizers and entrees!! The other servers did not seem as attentive. Highly recommend this restaurant, not only because of the food but because of the service!”

“If you can snag a reservation here, do it — but honestly, even if you can’t, they hold a few tables each night for walk-ins, and it’s so worth the wait. The Pink Door is one of those rare places that’s somehow both trendy and timeless. Every corner feels thoughtfully curated — chic, eclectic, and a little bit artsy — and when the live music starts, it’s pure magic. We were lucky enough to be seated in the back dining room overlooking the Ferris wheel and the Salish Sea, and the view alone could’ve made the night. But then came the food — and wow. From the appetizers to the pappardelle pasta and rabbit (plus alllll the bread), everything was beyond delicious. Huge shoutout to our server, Jeannie, who was amazing — warm, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. We left already planning our next visit. This place is beautiful, delicious, and full of charm. We’ll definitely be back!”
“I have eaten at Toulouse Petit many times. It is my husband and I's favorite spot. We have tried many items on the menus and have never walked away unsatisfied. The food is always amazing, the service is kind, and it’s just a place I love coming back to. If you’ve never been, you should definitely check it out. It’s one of Seattle’s best.”
“I cannot remember our waiters name, but he was absolutely amazing. He gave us recommendations and helped build a sampling platter of oysters. He was knowledgeable, kind, efficient, and pleasant to chat with. The food was amazing. My fiance and I shared oysters and fish and fries, the fish was some of the best I’ve had. We enjoyed the ambiance, the views, the seating was comfortable, everything appeared to be clean. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. We will definitely be back the next time we’re in Seattle!”
“The Mrs and I were visiting Seattle and took our niece there to celebrate her birthday. Was the eigth different Ruths Chris we have been to and this location did not disappoint. The steak and potatoes au gratin were on point, wine selection was wonderful. What topped the experience was the service recieved from Nelson and the entire staff. They all could not have been nicer or more attentive. Just a great experience all around and big thanks to the staff!”
“We were back in town for the marathon last weekend. My husband went to culinary school at the Art Institute of Seattle and we have been back to visit many times. I just wanted to leave a note here about the waiter we had Sunday evening. It was the best service we have had in a long time. Several other restaurants we went to included an 18-20% gratuity to the check, and service reflected that. Cutters doesn’t. Our waiter gave good wine recommendations, was attentive, patient with our kids, and even gave us a small portion of noodles to take home and finish with the sauce that came with the mussels. We tipped accordingly, and really did appriciate the service. It seems to be a lost art. Food was great! Kids loved the mocktails. 2 course meal was delicious. It was a great place for my husband to get his seafood fix. Thank you!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this restaurant! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was beautiful, warm, and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a special celebration. We visited to celebrate a birthday, and the team truly made it a memorable and special occasion for us.
A special thank you to Daniel and Mr. Eyup for their outstanding hospitality and attention throughout the evening. They made us feel genuinely welcomed and took great care of us, which made our experience even more enjoyable.
The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was prepared with great quality and attention to detail. The portions were also perfectly satisfying, not too small or too overwhelming, just ideal. Service was fast, smooth, and professional, and we never had to wait long for anything.
We also loved the music and overall ambiance, which added so much to the experience. Everything — from the atmosphere, service speed, food quality, and hospitality — was simply excellent.
Thank you for giving us such a fantastic and memorable experience. We truly enjoyed every moment and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!”
“This amazing establishment provided chowder & bisque for the Classic Yacht Association's Bell Harbor Rendezvous over this last Fathers' Day weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed luscious bowls of absolute scrumptiousness, and appreciated their courteous, kind, and professional staff. Thank you!!! Highly recommend!”
“The Five point cafe is a true Seattle classic. The atmosphere is authentic, lively, and full of character. The food was hearty, delicious, and served in generous portions, exactly what you’d expect from a legendary diner.
If you are looking for a genuine Seattle experience with great comfort food and a unique local vibe, this place is it. I like it!”

“My partner and I came in for our first ever Magic: The Gathering pre release event (beginner’s night) and had a really fun time! The owner Elijah has curated a super chill vibe and atmosphere, and one that is very welcoming and inclusive. I will definitely be coming back for future events!
Also a great selection of beer and wine!”
“One of the better hot pot spots in the city!
I’ve tried probably 10+ hot pot restaurants from Lynwood to Federal way and everywhere in between, this is one of the best spots
The veggie selection is one of the best, the meat tasted high quality, and the broth was flavorful
The service and cleanliness were also much better than I’ve experienced elsewhere”
