A local seafood restaurant with several locations. This one has the option for walk up fish and chips or chowder. Inside will be more fine dining. The location of this one is great, because you can walk the boardwalk by Puget Sound and have a great day of sightseeing. Check out The Old Curiosity Shop or the Seattle Aquarium. Or perhaps a trip on the Argosy for a day on the water. There is also the option of the water taxi to West Seattle ( a much cheaper option) for a quick trip on the water. The water taxi takes you to West Seattle, but is a long walk to any services.

At one time the best Thai food in Seattle. Just a little hole in the wall in the U-district off the Ave. (near University of Washington on University Ave not to be confused with University Street which is downtown). Lines are long, so expect to wait. Servers can be abrupt, but usually very good food. Serving hours can vary, but usually open for lunch and dinner.
