Fine Dining
Rover's is a critic and local favorite. It is owned by the famous, Thierry Rautureau, known as the "Chef in the Hat". The environment is warm and inviting, Rautureau would like you feel as though you are dining at a friend's house. The cuisine is considered "cuisine of the Pacific Northwest" due to the chef using locally grown, organic and seasonal ingredients.Moderate Dining
Ray's Boathouse is an excellent choice to taste Seattle's fresh, famous seafood. The 50 foot, red, Ray's sign has become an icon for Seattle. From the dining room you view the majestic Puget Sound and rugged Olympic Mountains. In addition to the fresh seafood, Ray's Boathouse has an award-winning wine list of more than 700 selections.Affordable Dining
If you would like something other than seafood, try the Agua Verde Cafe & Paddle Club. They offer water-front dining at a reasonable rate. Lunch is served in a cafeteria-style manner and lunch has a much more extensive menu, all of which has a focus on local, organic foods. Their signature dish, Tacos de la Casa, is available all day, along with house-made soft drinks.-
