In a city full of icons, Seattle houses the Space Needle, the waters of Puget Sound and the cloud-draped backdrop of Mount Rainier. Don't forget the icons of Seattle's signature cuisine. Seasonal stone fruits and berries, artisan cheeses along with salmon and shellfish are all-stars on the menus of fancy and casual restaurants, from Ballard to Belltown. The best new restaurants in Seattle stand out by embracing local ingredients along with their chefs' skill and creativity. But where do the savviest Seattle foodies go when they want to eat somewhere new? This is the Tastemaker 20. We pulled data covering thousands of restaurants to determine the top spots among OpenTable's smartest, most experienced diners. These 20 restaurants not only boast amazing cuisine, but they also offer memorable experiences ranging from fine dining on the waterfront to sharing snacks and wines in a hip downtown cafe. It won't be long before the whole city catches on to these hot spots, so we suggest booking a table at these new restaurants in Seattle ASAP.

COMO

Kirkland
COMO takes the inspiration for its vibe and cuisine from Italy’s Lake Como, drawing on the culinary traditions of the Lombardia region and evoking the magnificent setting with a lakefront location of its own. The restaurant even runs a shuttle service across Lake Washington via vintage wooden boat, an experience guests can book in advance for a not insignificant fee. Chef Gabriel Chavez’s lunch and dinner menus focus on hand-made pastas, seafood and risotto, with a couple of pizzas as well. Consider rich fare such as sweet potato gnocchi with braised oxtail and butternut squash, and pappardelle with wild boar ragu and Calabria chili. COMO also offers a list of signature cocktails starring Italian spirits and aperitifs.

Kirkland
The Heathman Hotel in Kirkland is home to Hearth, one of the best new restaurants in the Seattle area. The centerpiece of the restaurant is a hearth oven (hence the name), with its warmth defining the cozy, family friendly atmosphere of the venue. Chef Adam Johnson looks to Pacific Northwest ingredients to star in hearth-fired dishes like roasted mussels with crispy red rice and chorizo, roasted king crab legs with herb butter, and a whole “caveman-style” beef short rib for two or more. Lunchtime fare includes an array of flat breads, a fried chicken sandwich and signature burger with smoked gouda, caramelized onions and black pepper aioli. Hearth is open for breakfast on weekdays and on weekends presents a popular brunch.

In 2018, The Hart and the Hunter brought its modern southern-inspired cuisine to Seattle by way of Los Angeles, where the original restaurant already gained considerable fame. The newcomer is a shoe-in for a spot among the best new restaurants in Seattle, with critics and local foodies raving about the all-day eatery inside the Palihotel. Along with classics like the H&H burger, beet salad and crispy chicken sandwich are some unexpected original creations. Those include the carrot toast, topped with carrot butter, roasted carrots and toasted buckwheat, and an entrée of pork rillettes with peaches, pickles and baguette. Items with a local provenance feature too, such as Puget Sound oysters and the Washington cheese board. Don’t miss the famous butter biscuits – they’re baked to order and come with pimento cheese, maple butter and mixed berry jam.

Ben Paris, on the ground floor of the State Hotel, is one of the best new restaurants in Seattle, yet its venue has a long and storied heritage. In the early 20th century it was home to a landmark restaurant owned by namesake Ben Paris, the noted Seattle sportsman, conservationist and entrepreneur. The spot is a stone’s throw from Pike Place Market, the source for many of the ingredients used in the kitchen. The brunch, lunch and dinner menus offer a mixture of straightforward American classics and modern versions of old favorites. Consider small plates like poutine, avocado toast, and a cauliflower and kale Caesar salad, and large plates of crab Louie, ribeye steak with Brussels sprouts and a fried egg, and pasta sheets with duck confit, radicchio and marcona almonds.

Pink Salt stands out among the best new restaurants in Seattle by taking its major culinary inspiration from Peru. Behind the scenes are three chefs, two from Peru and one from the United States, who together present intriguing menus focusing on local seafood and charcoal-grilled meats.

Another is an appetizer of yuca frita with an aji carretillero dipping sauce. Note the Illuminated pink salt wall behind the bar, as well as menu items featuring the restaurant’s namesake mineral such as pink salt ice cream and pink salt margaritas.

Belltown/Pike Place Market
The name of Conversation, the signature restaurant of the Thompson Seattle Hotel, represents a desire for diners to engage fully in the social experience around eating. In the sleek, minimalist space steps from Pike Place Market, with refined décor around slates and grays with pops of brass, each dining table features cards printed with conversation-starter questions. Chef Derek Simcik’s menus are conversation worthy as well, inspired by his world travels, family recipes and local ingredients. Consider the signature trout over potato puree with a caramelized onion broth, smoked aioli and caper puree, or the shareable split pig’s head served on a platter with ramps, kimchi apples and cherry ketchup.

Deep Dive

Bar de cócteles
Lago Union/Eastlake
Deep Dive, inside the Amazon Spheres, ranks highly among the best new restaurants in Seattle in large part for the remarkable execution of its underwater theme. The atmospheric space is equal parts underwater grotto and steamship captain’s lounge, with every nook and cranny displayed an eye-catching collection of oddities. Dried sea creatures sit next to antique watches, with taxidermy beasts beside brass birdcages and sea-glass orbs. The drink menu comes as a leather-bound tome, with celebrated chef Renee Erickson’s snack-centric menu designed to complement creative cocktails. A pricey take on the Seattle dog is a real scene-stealer. It’s a grass-fed, hazelnut-smoked beef hot dog on a seeded bun dressed with whipped cream cheese, red onions, pickled jalapenos and pink salmon caviar, which arrives on a silver platter.
