New American Restaurants near Normandy Park, WA

“Great food and beer/cider list“

“Fabulous venue for a Wedding ❤️“

“Best chicken fried steak in Washington!!“

“The brunch menu brought us in, but the service and atmosphere had us feeling like regulars. Mimosa’s, eggs Bennie’s, and Pattie K set the vibe.
Pattie K was friendly, super efficient, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Even when it got busy, she was on it, and you could tell she really cared about the guest experience. This is definitely a must visit spot!“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Excellent food and service“

“If I could give this place ten stars, I would! The food and drinks are the best on the block but it’s just a compliment to the great people who work there. No matter how busy it is they never forget you and make you feel right at home.“

“Delicious food, came out hot and fresh in 7 minutes. Didn't once think I needed ketchup/hot sauce on the taters; they were full of flavor. Super friendly and welcoming staff.“

“This is the loveliest little place that despite its delicious menu and incredible cocktails still feels kind of unknown. Even friends that have lived in WSea for years haven’t heard of its existence. Even though I’d like to keep it that way, I’d much rather have it succeed and never go away.

Also, got to meet one of the owners tonight, super nice guy with very kind friends. The bathroom even has VIP club-style amenities like toothpicks, mints and lotion. We ❤️ Locöl.“

“I came in a few minutes after they opened and I was greeted with smiles! My server, Lillian, was very nice and the fish & chips were probably some of the best I've ever had (super crunchy and the slaw is yummy!). Will definitely be visiting here again when I pop back over to the island next time.“

“The people here are amazing, they're so friendly and knowledgable and not just about the drinks and food they serve but the area itself. I've had a lot of their cocktails over my visits and each one is complex and unique. If you get a chance come in and try their Vanilla Cheesecake Brownie, It was like a little cloud of heaven.“

“Always great food we go there often for date night😋🤫“

“Great food, service and vibe! Will definitely be back“

“stopped by on a whim as I drove down west valley highway and I was very pleased with the service and food! ordered lumpia, crispy pork belly combo and a brown sugar boba and I was blown away! the crispy pork was beyond good! came with a Mac salad some diced veggies and a wonderfully flavored rice with green onion. the lumpia was freshly made and the boba complimented everything. 10/10 would recommend“

“We Love Ruby Brink! Burger night—say no more…! The beef dip sandwich on the lunch menu is another favorite. We love eating here for so many reasons though. This isn’t a “high staff turnover” type restaurant where you’ll be greeted by stressed out workers plastered with fake smiles fighting over tables like you might be used you. This is a grown-up establishment with grown-up food and grown-up and experienced, competent and empowered staff and I appreciate how this dynamic expressed itself in terms of guest experience. When I say that the food is grown-up I mean that it is carefully selected and prepared from scratch and this means it does not taste like what other restaurants are doing, which often is buying bags of frozen soup and sauces from the chef supply store to keep costs down and to keep everything tasting exactly the same, every time. You will taste different things here and that might surprise you. Ready yourself for that and enjoy!“

“The staff was super friendly! They offer sandwiches on greens for those gf friends. I had the heat pressed BLT and it was Soo good! Love the back patio.“

“The owners are the best. Good service and great food.“

“When I clean clients houses in that area I always stop here for lunch sandwiches are delicious and people are so nice!“

“I requested a special dish that was not on the menu and she hooked me up💪🏾. I even left my wallet and she stayed late for me to come back and get it. I love this place“

“Funky neighborhood bar with very tasty dining options. The poutine was fantastic
The philly was just so so. Service wasn't inattentive, but it certainly wouldn't give you any warm fuzzies either....a bit perfunctory and brusque but I think that's their vibe.“

“I was there for darts, and it was a little awkward until i ordered a drink! The service was great! I think my bartender was ¿Caitlyn¿ I don't know how to spell her name, but her and the tall white dude were very attentive even while they were busy! Dart boards are well taken care of also. Dartlive2, btw.

Parking: Street parking is available, if not directly in front, then a few feet down the street or around the corner. Library parking garage also allows public access.

Kid-friendliness: This establishment is 21+, very good for a drink and dinner with buds.

Wheelchair accessibility: Flat street level with crosswalk signs, no steps, very easily wheelchair accessible.“

“love this place! Great food and drinks!“

“Great views of Seattle and a fun course to play“

“Copperleaf was outstanding from start to finish! The dining room is elegant and inviting, with a warm ambiance that sets the perfect mood. The service was top-notch — attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced. The food was phenomenal — beautifully presented, full of fresh flavors, and crafted with real creativity. Every dish felt special, from appetizers to dessert. The cocktails were just as impressive, refreshing, and thoughtfully made. Copperleaf is the kind of place that makes a meal feel like an occasion. Highly recommend for anyone looking for exceptional food, service, and atmosphere.“

“If you are in the mood for elegant, vintage drinks with a whimsical (truly whimsical) twist - look no further - thus is your stop, for a sip - or two, or... We had the Chai Old Fashioned and the Last Word... If the devil is in the details - so are the companions of Bacchus - the REAL maraschino cherry in the Last Word and the massive ice cube in the Old Fashioned confirm how serious thus place is about its drinks reputation. Also, the Cherry and Apricot Salad gave us that so very needed connection with the local farmers' produce, it being a delightfully crispy concoction of bitter radicchio and peppery greens, smoothed by a pungent goat cheese and vanilla balsamic vinaigrette.The bread and the sharp olive oil were especially appreciated with the salad. We love gelato, but ordered the blackberry sorbet and did not regret it since it came with a solid chunk of anise biscotti - an excellent pairing for the double espresso. Our waiter, Troy, made us feel well attended, but not even once did he overdo it.“

“Limited menu for dinner, and last call at 8:00pm on a Friday night, but a super easy spot for a solid burger and flatbread.

My travelling companion had the Club Sandwich and said it was great - and he's eaten a lot of club sandwiches!

Service was great and kept my Diet Pepsi filled up, and offered us drinks back to our hotel room.

Perfect if you are staying at the hotel, but not a destination restaurant.“

“Great food and fast service! The waitress was wonderful! I had the grilled salmon. it was amazing!“

“Don't let the fact that this restaurant is in a hotel detour you... it's amazing. Food is delicious, service is stellar, and the price is right. I went for breakfast and dinner in one week. The stuffed French toast was some of the best I've had in Seattle, and for dinner I had the burger with Dejion and caramelized onions. super tasty. Just wish I had room for dessert. Maybe next time. They had the football games on at the bar, so I had cocktails to end the night and almost rented a room just to stay longer but had to work in the AM. Top notch!!“

“Went in at 2:50 pm on a Sunday evening. I do not regret coming in . At first i was a bit unsure of what to order considering how small the menu was so i decided to ask the server for her opinion. She ended up recommending a meatball pasta which i loved so much. If i could go back tn i would. The only concerning thing is the size of the plate. It is a very small portion and didn’t even get me full. Luckily i ate my girlfriends food otherwise i would’ve had to order a second plate. Besides the serving portion every thing else including service was great. Would recommend for those who are curious and want to try it out.“

“We absolutely love this place! Every time they knock it out of the park. We love the vibe, the staff, and their creativity. Food is always delicious and we enjoy the stories behind the dishes. Feel lucky to have such an amazing spot in our neighborhood.“

“Great casual vibe and incredibly friendly staff! Food was really good (I highly recommend the street tacos) and the beer suggestions were on point! 5/5“

“On the water. Fantastic food“

“This is the best new spot in town. Highly recommend. Their dishes are served as you asked, hot, fresh, and incredibly unique. Their reception is out of this world. I will definitely come back for an amazing time. No doubt. Try this new spot out and you will never regret the experience.“

“Great spot for lunch or dinner. The woman that works the front counter is such a sweetheart.

They get a nice char on their burger, so there's tons of flavor. For the price point, I was happy with the quantity and quality. Would definitely recommend.“

“Always my favorite bar. Love Juliet!“

“Absolutely amazing food & mimosas! Definitely 5 star service!“

“Our server was absolutely one of the hardest workers. He served ALL of the full tables in the bar area. The bartender served just the few people at the bar-yet our server went behind the bar and got his own drinks for the tables. The difference in the amount of work these two men were doing was unreal. Kudos to our hard working guy!!!! Sept 22, 2025.“

“Had an overnight stay at the Hotel for business. Didn’t want to go out just something simple but good. The classic burger did not disappoint. Cooked exactly as I asked. Super juicy and fresh toppings. Fries were the seasoned kind. Just crispy enough but not too much. The menu has lighter foods and more upscale if that is your craving. Service was friendly and food came out in a very reasonable amount of time.“

“Solid lox sandwich, but not sure if it's $18 good. Maybe that's just the way of the world at this point. I'm originally from the Northeast (upper right) where good bagels are ubiquitous. I do have to say that these bagels are very good. Pricey, but good. The guy working the window seemed like he might be serving a community service sentence, or perhaps he was just hung over. But I was there for the product, not the service, so I won't ding them for the aloofness. (The person working the donut window next door was lovely and politely pointed me in the right direction, since the bagel window isn't as obvious.) Would I go back? Maybe. But at this price, these bagels seem more like a high end treat than a regular occurrence. Check it out for yourself. I didn't think you'll be disappointed.“

“In my opinion the best coffee around. It started with convenience and unlike Starbucks they made a standard delicious vanilla latte. But really it's all about the blended drinks. There are their specials which are all good but you can also get the coffee drinks blended & they use an ice cream base that takes it to a whole new level. Plus, you get a free bday drink which is a nice bonus. Highly recommend!“
