Restaurants |
Mashiko
Hands down, our favorite restaurant in all of Seattle.
That is saying a lot, considering it’s all the way in West
Seattle. This is adventurous
Japanese cuisine. This is not going to be fun if you are a “I
don’t
eat anything raw or was alive at one point” kind of person.
Best advice: Make reservations for the sushi bar. Order the Course
Meal for a whopping $50.00/couple and get a five-course tasting
meal, chef’s choice. Or
if you have 3 ½ hours to spare, hunker down for the
Omakase, usually an 8-9 course extravaganza for $50/person.
Say hello to Hajime Sato (the owner), Mariah, and John for
us!
Paseo Caribbean
A tiny, extremely casual, cash-only Cuban sandwich place.
They serve other non-sandwich things, but stick to the pork
sandwiches and you won’t be
disappointed. In particular, order sandwich #2. Go early or
expect to wait in line!
Six
Seven
One of the best-kept secret lunch spots ever. Great Pacific
Northwest cuisine, but with a view that will knock you out. It’s
right on the water! The bento boxes are the best bang for
the buck.
Crave
Tiny, tiny breakfast spot in Capital Hill. Favorite items
include: french toast served with a side of bleu cheese butter,
and the hash of the day. Arrive before 9:30am if you don’t
want to wait.
