I went here for the first time this past weekend as a change of pace from my regular sushi place, and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious everything was. My eyes lit up as I ate the Albacore Nigiri, which is the best I've had anywhere in Seattle. We tried a few other pieces of nigiri and ordered two rolls, all of which were delicious. The sake menu was impressive as well, with an entire page devoted to sake! There were easily over 20 different types of sake to try.
I will definitely be adding this place to my list of sushi joints.
Pros: Variety of Rolls, Long Sake Menu, Friendly Servers

The Melting Pot is the perfect location to take a date for a special occassion. It might not seem like a lot of food, but you can get one of the complete meals which will fill you up. This was pretty pricey though (about $80-includes appetizer, entree, dessert). But the food is GREAT and you never get tired of the same dish because you get a variety of different sauces and foods. What's more romantic than preparing your meal together?! This dimly lit restaurant has romantic seating which is isolated or group seating fo a more vibrant experience. If you do go for a special occassion, let them know in advance and they'll leave a rose on the table and take a complimentary picture of your special someone and you.

This is my favourite oyster bar in Seattle - took a group last night and was not disappointed. Fresh, plump, flavourful oysters shucked to perfection. KNowledgeable staff that can tell you about the types of oysters -especially David who is their champion shucker.
The other entrees are excellent also - the Copper River Salmon was outstanding and the spicy crab was very good too. The crab comes in a sweet Thai chilli sauce.
Would definitely recommend.
Pros: Great oysters, Great seafood

Stumbling Goat Bistro was truly one of my most favorite dining experiences to date. The service was FABULOUS. Our waiter was knowledgeable, passionate about the food he serving, and just an overall jolly man. His joy for food was contagious. He was attentive but not over bearing.
The food is simple - but so unique! And the menu rotates depending on the season. It was so so delicious.
This is a perfect spot for a first date or a 10 year anniversary. And really, I would go here alone too. It is such a fabulous environment. Not only does the food taste wonderful, you feel like you're doing something good for your body and community.
WELL DONE Stumbling Goat. You guys are the best.
Pros: location, organic, local, great service
Cons: none!

We love this place !!! We have been going for years.
The prices don't change very often. This year the prices did go up, just like everywhere else. I heard that their cost went up about 20% but they only raise their prices by 5%. The 3% credit card charge is just a way to pass on the credit card charge that they pay. I think that it is great that they accept credit cards at all. I've heard that business owner pay rediculous amounts for accepting cards.
The food and service is worth every penny. The flavors are the same as they were when we discoverd Gorditos years ago. No matter how long I've been going there, my favorite is still the chicken fajita wet burrito (sometimes steak is my favorite). The burrito hasn't changed a bit, flavor and size. They did come out with a smaller item menu last year, and you can order your favorites in a smaller version. I still order the regular and take home leftovers, but this is a super nice option.
Thank you Gorditos !!!!!
Pros: Great food and great service
Cons: none

everything was SO good. you could eat here and just order tapas and drinks! there were 4 of us and we each chose a tapa to order. i think my favorites were the cheese and proccuto and the fried cheese that you dip in liek a marinara sauce? i don's remember the exact names. we also ordered one of the paellas wich was also verry good. all of the seafood was cooked perfectly. not chewy and not under cooked. it was amazing! the timing was also nice because the paella takes a littel longer to cook, so it was nice to have ordered and shares the 4 tapas and also the sangria. i have never had a sangria made with red wine, i would never even choose to drink red wine but it was SO good. not too intense with the wine taste but also not too fruity.
Pros: easy to find. amazing food.
Cons: parking, and it was a little dark in there

I went to 13 Coins early on a Saturday evening (before 6 pm) and was seated right away. We sat at the counter so we could watch them cook. We ordered the Calamari for an appetizer and it was WONDERFUL! They did not overcook it as most resteraunts like to do and the dipping sauce was perfect! For entrees I had the Steak David - Filet mignon topped with fresh crab and served with Hollandaise sauce on the plate. I could have had just the filet and been just as happy. The Filet was cooked perfectly and it practically melted away from the knife. It came with pasta which I don't eat. But I'm sure if I had asked for a substitute it would not have been an issue. Also ordered by my party was Veal Parmagiana and another steak. Everyone raved about thier food! Desert was Creme Brulee and I couldn't have asked for better. They fired the top so that there was a nice thick shell. No soft spots which always leaves me a little disappointed.
The highlight was being able to watch the kitchen staff cooking. We were seated near the Head chef and he was entertaining and didn't seem to mind answering our silly questions about what they were doing. He cracked a few jokes and the whole staff seemed to be having a great time working, which really goes a long way in the overall dining experience.
I will definately go back... and soon!
Pros: Entertaining, GREAT FOOD, family friendly
Cons: Can be spendy depending on what you order. But always worth it.
