Pike Place Market is home to the first Starbucks, Rachel the Pig, numerous street performers and entertainers, and the Pike Place Fish Market, which features the fish-throwing fishmongers.
My @pandafoodie recommends: Spinach Momo's With Peanut, Sesame And Tomato Chutneys. Such a great vegetarian appetizer.
Crispy tofu baguette is delicious and vegetarian friendly (although I'm not one myself). Yum!
Craft booze savants will geek out over the amaro selection, while the rest of you will be thoroughly delighted by the ever-changing small-plate selection—pork tongue! duck liver goose!—& gorgeous bar. Read more.
The place is dripping with antiquated, old-world charm. You need to try the pork belly sliders, tip your bartender, and thank me later. And use their bathroom :)
The old structure was demolished & a new building with a similar look and a very different vibe opened for business in November 2013. Awesome drinks & food. I recommend the Stumbling Cow for dessert.
Chilled Dungeness crab with garlic mayo, king salmon cured in honey & camomile, and the lamb leg are just some of the menu minglers. Don't leave without the sourdough bread. [Eater 38 Member]
The menu spans everything from pork shoulder with kimchi to creamed spinach with rice cakes, braised turnips, and a basket of fried lardo with pickled quince. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
At this authentic Mexican spot you can watch as your tortillas are made fresh right in front of you. The pozole and pork tamales are clear winners.
Some describe this take-out only hole-in-the-wall as the best drunk food in Seattle, but it's good anytime the hunger pangs hit. Hearty dishes include the Nasi Goreng. [Eater 38 Member]
The only thing better than the mole, the salsa bar and the damn delicious casual Oaxacan food is how cheap it is to eat yourself silly. Brace yourself for a crowd, but it's worth it. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Little Uncle is the go-to for some of the best Thai food in the city. [Eater 38 Member]
Getting seats at this 107-year-old Japanese restaurant can be an utter puzzlement, but should you crack the code, the mind-boggling list of specials are where it's at. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Go for breakfast burritos in the morning, Spam sliders for lunch, and kimchi fried rice and boozy shaved ice at night. Sit in the dining room overlooking Seattle or outside. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
The former Chez Shea chef is producing handmade soba noodles, but the entire menu shines. Don't miss the smaller snacks (uni shooter, smoked hamachi kama) and salads. [Eater 38 Member]
The space has been filled ever since it opened. Sit at the chef's counter for full view of the kitchen crew preparing, tangine, ceviche, and bowls of vegetable fritters with pesto. [Eater 38 Member]
An unmarked hole in the wall, this is the go-to for authentic Japanese food in the International District. There's a sushi bar and handful of tables that fill-up quickly. [Eater 38 Member]
Everything is cooked in a wood-fired oven, get the meat pies (with an exclamation point on the menu), roasted seasonal vegetables, and S’Mores for dessert. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
