Guide to Seattle Restaurants and Dining

So many Seattle restaurants! How do you choose? It's hard enough to decide where to go when you're a local, let alone when you're from out-of-town! Where do the locals like to eat? Is that restaurant down the street expensive? Is it family friendly?

Dining should be an enjoyable experience and one of the highlights of your visit. And you shouldn't have to resort to eating at a chain restaurant, unless of course you really want to! Sometimes that is the easiest thing to do, especially if you are traveling with kids!

Seattle restaurants give you a chance to sample a variety of the world's cuisines without leaving the country. Whatever you're hungry for -- Mexican, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Indian, seafood, steak -- you can probably find it here! The ready availability of some of the freshest seafood and produce in the world make Seattle a haven for foodies.

If you're looking to make your dining experience even more memorable, many restaurants take advantage of the gorgeous scenery and offer dining with a view as well as great food.

There are hundreds of restaurants, too many to list here. I have begun with a few in each category to help you make an informed choice. I would love to see the list grow, so if you discover one that you think others would enjoy, please let me know about it!

Just click on the image in the gallery below to find the restaurants you are looking for. Happy dining!

While you are visiting our city, I encourage you to dine at a few of these local restaurants, ones that aren't chains. Maybe even try a new type of cuisine, one that you haven't tried before. It will make your visit that much more memorable.
