Most delish! Excellent service. Could not stop eating the amazing bread!
Andrew Zimmern took the role of guest chef here. This restaurant gives recovering addicts, ex-cons and others a second chance by teaching them culinary skills. As seen on Bizarre Foods America.
A quintessential American Bar & Bistro mastered by Chef Tom Douglas. The Plans are a must try, and the daily grilled specials are not to be missed. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
Star chef Tom Douglas prepares his Palace Burger Royale with local grass-fed beef, Beecher's cheddar from Pike Place Market and roasted onion buns baked at his own Dahlia Bakery.
The service is awesome very welcoming, the burger is truly amazing and if hungry try the local cheese selection plater... Good local beer selection.
Serves solid Turkish home cooking with a stylish spin. Cook Ugur Oskay has a great sense of proportion, wielding herbs and spices with intelligence and restraint. Chargrilled lamb is the house special Read more.
The best Turkish Restaurant in Seattle!
A must visit while in Seattle. Tom has captured Seattle and the rest of the country with his Asian influenced and Northwestern cooking. A true institution. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
Tom Douglas is the local celebrity chef, and you’ll find he is behind many well-known eateries in town. … This is the flagship, which is classy but unpretentious.
The bread salad, crab cakes, and creme caramel make one of the best dinners in Seattle
Mike and Mako are two of the top chefs in Seattle. be sure to send them your thanks.
Amazing seafood and Italian fare. I had the wood fired mussels and they were fantastic.
Cicchetti is a hidden Eastlake gem. Their bartenders whip up superb cocktails and the interior is breathtaking. If possible, sit up stairs and enjoy an intimate view of the Space Needle.
What’s great about this place is that the mixologists create great cocktails to pair well with the delicious food. You can’t go wrong. -Maria Hines, Top Chef
Get the grilled cheese with tomato cappuccino, and the truffle popcorn. Add some of the popcorn to the tomato cappuccino! Yum!
Corpse Reviver! Oh and garlic truffle popcorn, mmmm. Read more.
Even though there are three locations now, I’m partial to the one in my Wallingford neighborhood. . I love the PB&J flavor and the red velvet. -Maria Hines, Top Chef
The selection changes every day, but if you have the chance, get the Elvis—banana cake base topped with peanut butter butter cream icing. (Also, Trophy now serves macarons, and they are delightful.)
Best cupcake by far: Red Velvet. Mmmmm. This is the original location, and the best one.
If you like Japanese cooking & sushi you should try Nishino in Madison Park. True, good Japanese food done by Master Tatsu Nishino. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
love arboretum roll & tara saikyoyaki (black cod)!! :)
get the miso marinaded black cod. the best.
This deli's Mi-Bahn #1 sandwich with barbecue pork is delicious. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
Aside from their great banh mi, try their lunch box! Tasty and inexpensive!
Saigon Deli has a long-standing reputation as the best banh mi in Seattle. Even The New York Times consideres it one of the best 13 Vietnamese baguettes in the country. And they're less than $3.
Wine tasting! The wine selections are amazing and the people know everything!
Try the lemon curd, truffle salt, and white truffle oil. It will change your life.
Do a wine tasting and have them taste test you on the Soirée wine aerator.
This deli's Mi-Bahn #1 sandwich with barbecue pork is delicious. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
If you are here you have to try out the Vietnamese sandwich :) the chef recommends the BBQ pulled pork with additional egg. Also try their Pho out! You are in for a treat :)
Get the fried egg on a BBQ pork banh mi.
Love the ambience. Food is flavorful, fresh, rustic and cooked with passion! Also love it that they dont rush you to turn tables. Three course set meal ($30).End your dinner with a Sgroppino (yum!).
The food is yummy but not a good place for a diet.
Get the Caesar salad. Seriously.
This little Mexican restaurant may appear too slick to be good, but it is. You’ve never seen an all-female line rock the kitchen the way they do. -Maria Hines, Top Chef
Excellent mole tamales and outstanding tacos de pastor
Best Mexican restaurant in Seattle. Next time you're there try the Chile Relleno, authentic home-style mexican food.
Chef Mark Fuller is a 2009 Food & Wine Magazine Best New Chef. He deserved winning this honor, because his menu is thoughtful and inspiring. It’s one of my favorite restaurants. -Maria Hines, Top Chef
Fried chicken, of course! Probably the best in Seattle.
Order the fried chicken in advance! OMG!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
