El Camino
607 N 35th Street | ph: (206) 632.7303
Spicy and authentic Mexican food is cooked for a hip crowd, largely made up of dating couples. A small, well-chosen menu is composed
largely of tacos. Stop by the bar for a rich, noisy atmosphere, and very strong drinks. The sangria is especially powerful.

El
Gaucho
2505 First Ave. [ Belltown ] | ph: (206) 728-1337
Its unassuming façade belies the ostentatious menu and service inside. A modern-day throwback to the swank steakhouses
of the Rat Pack-era, this is the place for 21st Century high-rollers -- or anyone who just wants to appear like one. Meat and seafood are the
staples here, as are martinis and cigars. Order the Chateaubriand for Two, a Caesar salad, and Bananas Foster for dessert, and enjoy having
your meal carved, tossed, and prepared tableside. El Gaucho's Pampas Room has a full menu, plus music and dancing Friday and Saturday nights.

Etta's
Seafood
2020 Western Ave. [ Pike Place Market ] | ph: (206) 325-9100
Etta's owner, Tom Douglas, is rumored to be the man responsible for introducing the crab cake to Seattle diners. If this isn't
reason enough to dine at Etta's, here are a few more: Ahi Tuna Sashimi Salad with Green Onion Pancakes, Broiled Sea-Scallops with Udon Noodles
(in a lemongrass miso broth), and Spice Rubbed Copper River Salmon with Shiitake Relish and Basil Oil. Convinced?

Flying
Fish
2234 First Ave. [ Belltown ] | ph: (206) 728-8595
Selected as one of the top 14 new restaurants in the country by Bon Appetit, Flying Fish has become a favorite of locals
and visitors alike. Flying Fish's menu is, naturally, filled with seafood - nearly all of it cooked with Pan-Asian flair. Delicious starters
(which can be ordered en masse to make a meal) include Thai Coconut Seafood Soup, Salmon Cakes with Sweet Onion Salad, and Tuna Carpaccio. The
Wok Blackened Marlin or the Seared Tuna Linguine make excellent entrée choices. Better yet, order the Seafood Antipasto or Oyster Sampler
Platters for enough food to be shared around the table.

Georgian Room
411 University Street | ph: (206) 621.7889
Four Seasons serves its guests, and a few locals, in this elegantly Old World setting. As could be expected, the decor is regal
and Italianate. The menu is full of decadent, finely prepared Northwest cuisine and remarkable desserts.

Hidden Harbor
1500 Westlake Ave. N. | ph: (206) 282-0501
Thanks to Norwegian master chef Petter Petterson, Seattle finally has its own fine dining establishment featuring Scandinavian
cuisine. Located on the west shore of Lake Union, and nestled discreetly between yacht brokerages, patrons can gorge themselves on such prestigious
entrees as herbed reindeer and crab legs - all while enjoying spectacular views of the lake. And just in case you were wondering, lutefisk is
on the menu.

Il Terazzo Carmine
411 S 1st Avenue | ph: (206) 467.7797
Professional waiters who know their work can be hard to find, but not at Il Terrazzo. The kitchen is equally professional, and
makes richly flavored Italian cuisine, extraordinary pastas, and a delicious rack of lamb.
