Highly Recommended 14 Dinner Restaurants Near Seattle, Washington

OG Jonah First of all the atmosphere was amazing. It feels like I was in a movie set. I had a really nice seat with a wonderful view of the Ferris wheel and the water. The staff was extremely friendly. I think it’s a friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered at any sort of restaurant establishment in my life. I forget my waitresses name that she had red hair, I think, but regardless she was so friendly. 10 out of 10. The food was amazing. So are the drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed everything. The dessert was amazing as well. It was a nice way to end my Seattle trip. Would definitely recommend I would definitely come back.

BreeAnna Lasher Great brunch! The White House breakfast and the pancake were both delicious! Taylor was a great waiter and recommended a great drink for me! The potatoes were so crispy and lovely. Will come back again!

Missy C The service was great and the drinks were even better! The food was good too, but for some of the prices, I dont know- I guess I expected something a little more. The baked cheese was delicious, but you only need 2 of the 4 foccaccia pieces because theres not enough cheese to warrant all 4. The burger was a little on the small side, and though it said medium it was more like medium well. I still went again, but passed on the burger and went for schnitzel *which was delicious! It was cute how they had themed drinks to the Paramount theater across the street.

Malini Ghosal Great place, great vibe, great ambience - full of life, and of course great food! Generous portions and fair price too. As someone visiting from out of town, it felt like there were many regulars and a sense of community among them and the staff which was wonderful to watch - a treat in itself watching people having a genuinely good time! Highly recommend! Oh thanks for the wonderful french toast with fruits and custard which was a very specific third trimester craving.

Ryan Lemay The Island Beard My wife and I walked in for dinner and the restaurant was clean and on the water and looked very nice inside with the wood and oyster selection. We told them we are visiting Seattle for our 15 year wedding anniversary. When we arrived to our table they had an anniversary card for us. Our server Edie was very knowledgeable of the oysters and a delight to have as a server. My wife’s halibut was grilled to perfection and my prawn and scallop risotto was absolutely divine. The manager gave us a free dessert for our anniversary. Overall, an outstanding experience and we highly recommend this restaurant.

Amber Walcker We celebrated my birthday at The Pink Door and it was absolute perfection. Service: Hands down - best service weve probably ever had. The timing and times our waitress stopped by was perfect. The other staff would take plates when they saw they were empty, and frequent water refills. Everyone was attentive, kind, and looked like they genuinely enjoy their job! Food: Incredible! We had two appetizers (oysters, cheese balls), two mains (bolognese and the special: scallops), and two desserts (cheesecake, chocolate cake). Everything was so delicious and perfectly priced. Drinks: They only have a few wine selections but they were perfect with our main dishes. Also, the dessert wines were excellent! And coffee was fresh and really flavorful! 10/10 will return! Recommend making reservations.

Monica Laudenglos Wonderful dining experience. Our New Years Eve date night. After a spicy Ceasar in the bar, we were seated in the dining room. Lovely waterview window table to start our evening. Our server, Dane, was super attentive without rushing us. We shared a large slab salad known as a wedge salad at other places. The blue cheese dressing is really good here. A must try offering was the fried Brussels sprouts that were prepared with a yummy sweet glaze that included pork shoulder pieces. Honestly, this is hands down the BEST Brussel sprout dish weve ever tasted. Large serving, so share it. My husbands filet mignon was cooked perfectly. It was as good as the Wagu beef we recently had. Flavorful and so tender. It was served with whipped mashed potatoes and fresh sauted green beans. I had a few bites and was full with the other we already consumed. This experience was better than 5 stars. We highly recommend Saltys at Alki.

Seila Mills The food is great! My family and I ate the fish and chips, burgers, Nashville hot, macaroni, pizza and chicken strips. We enjoyed all the food. We bought the nachos too. Delicious! Cash served us and he was great! He kept our drink full the whole time and had great customer service too. Thank you Yard House, in Seattle Washington, for a wonderful experience!

David W Good beer, great location. Very busy. We came here for an event this evening and decided to eat here. Nice new venue. We had a Casey special pizza - it was a sausage and pepper with added mozzarella and pepperoni. Very good off manu choice! The Roasted Sweet Corn dip was very good too. Oh, and the pale ale and blonde was great too :) For a busy place, they were able to seat is fairly quickly.

Jeff Pelch I was traveling on a work trip on my birthday and booked a table for one since I’ve always had an amazing meal at Duke’s when I’m in Seattle. When I showed up, the host wished me a happy birthday without me even saying that it was my birthday and when I got to my table, there was a birthday card for me. What an amazing way to start the meal! I had the smoked salmon deviled eggs which were insanely good, a small Caesar salad and got the stuffed halibut entree. Wow. Absolutely amazing. After the entree, the waiter asked if he could get me a birthday dessert and I chose the carrot cake - one of the best carrot cakes I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to come back to Duke’s again soon. What an amazing team!

Maria Ramya Caesar The food was incredible and the service excellent. Every dish we ordered was delicious and we polished off everything. We visited for lunch and ordered the following: Sweet Pepper Shakshuka, Greek Scramble, Octopus Hash, Como French Toast, Mushroom Kebab, and Chicken Kebab. We had a reservation for four and were seated immediately

S B Stopped by on a Wednesday upon opening at 1100am for lunch. Overall, although quite pricey, the service and food were both excellent. The 8 oz butcher Wagyu steak with shoestring fries was perfectly cooked medium-rare with a nice smokey flavor with fries that were crispy and tasty. The Chophouse Meatloaf was also excellent, tender and tasty served with tasty asparagus and delicious mashed potatoes. We shared a burnt cream for desert which was delicious and also perfectly cooked. Fortunately, our server brought to our attention the 20% service charge automatically included on the bill; however, we did elect to add an additional $10 tip which goes to the server alone. Although quite pricey, especially with the automatic 20% service charge, we will be back because the service and food were both excellent!

Cal C Killer view with a great service. Four of us ordered a bunch for appetizers and shareable dishes instead of main dishes and enjoyed the meals. The table by the water in the evening has a cool vibe with the light reflecting on the water. Our server John was super attentive which made our visit even better.

Cody Harris Came here with my wife while staying at a nearby hotel. I can say this is an ideal date night type of place. Its got the right design and menu for a night out with someone special. We just came in for some late drinks and an appetizer. Can vouch for the baked brie and crackers. We ordered an Irish coffee and the Fifth Element cocktail. They were both made well and the alcohol was evenly mixed into the drink.
