Good Restaurants in Seattle
 

I know there's a couple older threads about this already but I'm not looking for like "Fine-Dining". I'll be there for a couple days. Lunch or Dinner recommendations would be great!
I don't care about a view or high-end either, just some local delicious food, and PLEASE NO CHAIN RESTAURANTS! I don't have a preference for cuisine, but "boring American white food" is low on the priority list. Unless it's beyond awesome.

Any suggestions guys? Anywhere in or around Downtown.
Thanks! :thumbsup:

Serious Pie by Tom Douglas!

I love their porcini, arugal & soft egg one

I've always liked the food at Malaysian Satay Hut. Haven't been to their Seattle location, just the one in Bellevue.

I've heard Paseo is really good. I think they were posted in one of the old threads to. I'm gonna go try it the next time I'm down there. TLC just had a show on for best sandwhich in the US and they came in at #2 on the list.

Ivar's Salmon House.

Darn, I just came back from Seattle, and mostly ate at chain restaurants (i.e. Cheesecake Factory)... :(

Owned by Mario Batali's parents. Huge lineup for lunch, get there early.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I ended up at Serious Pie for dinner. We had the Sweet Fennel & Wild Boar pizzas. I really liked the first one but the 2nd one was just meh. Overall was not bad but not sure if it was worth the $20 each plus the 1 hour line-up!

tamarind hill!!!!
try their beef 7 course

Crab pot is something fun to do in Seattle.

Fun for everyone and who doesn't like smashing stuff.

I can tell you where NOT to try...BOKA Kitchen & Bar. Ended up eating there because it was just downstairs in the hotel I was staying at.

Ordered 2 appetizers, and 2 mains...all cold and salty as fuck. definitely overrated and shitty. Ambiance was okay though.
