The 25 Best Restaurants in Seattle Right Now

Filipino, Tasting Menu
It’s rare for the chef to check in with diners at the end of the tasting menu and make sure they’re feeling full, but Archipelago isn’t like any other tasting. A puff of pan de sal pulls apart effortlessly, filling the air with a sweet, buttery perfume. Burning pine needles and the rich, muscly scent of shrimp paste waft over from the open kitchen. Cooks walk around with a tray of sliced rib-eye steak, offering seconds. You could easily get lost in the deliciousness of the modern Filipino food, but Aaron Verzosa and Amber Manuguid do more than send out excellent food. They tell complicated, expansive stories about the Pacific Northwest and the many ways that Filipino immigrants have shaped it, using words, pictures and even some unexpected dance moves behind the pass.
Italian
Spinasse is often hailed as the city’s best Italian restaurant, and its simple tajarin with butter and sage as a top Seattle dish. Capitol Hill neighbors know, though, that the chef Stuart Lane also runs the menu at the adjoining Artusi, which, just like Spinasse, offers four splendid handmade pastas per night, at considerably less expense. The windowed corner space here feels buzzy and urbane, and for $32, you can get every lovely appetizer on the menu — even the hazelnuts, candied in muscovado sugar with Controne chile and fennel pollen, are especially tasty. The screaming dinner deal on Sunday and Monday — two pastas and a bottle of wine for $45 — is hard to beat.
Vietnamese
Seattle has many pho options — and you may end up in a real argument if you try to declare a best — but the phở hà nội style here is superlative. Made with marrow bones from organic, grass-fed cattle, the broth is simmered for 24 hours and has a fortifying balance of beefy, gingery flavors, spiked with heat from pickled bird’s-eye chiles. The imperial rolls will spoil you for any others, with a blistered, shattering fried rice-paper wrapping. And the cocktail menu, inflected with tropical notes like tamarind, pineapple and orgeat, is impressive without being self-serious. Which is nice when the Vietnamese chicken wings pair so well with, say, a Wenatchee sling, and the Capitol Hill location is open until midnight.
Italian
Now more than 10 years old, this Pacific Northwest trattoria has become an anchor for the Beacon Hill neighborhood. The Neapolitan pizzas are canonical; cooked in an Italian-built wood-fired oven, they are pillowy-crusted and kissed with an appropriate char. It’s common to see the chef Jerry Corso, who owns the restaurant with his wife, Gina Tolentino Corso, hovering near the mouth of the oven and expertly topping pies as they come out. In addition to standing options like margherita and salame piccante, daily

The Best Foreign Language Horror Films, According to Our Editors
While accepting one of the many Oscars he received for the film Parasite at the 92nd Academy Awards in 2020, South Korean director Bong Joon Ho advised that Americans would do well to “overcome the one-inch tall barrier of subtitles” in order to discover an even broader swatch of amazing films than already available at our fingertips. Indeed, subtitles are nothing to be afraid of—but that doesn’t mean the movies they caption can’t be scary themselves. Amongst our editorial staff, in fact, there’s a consensus that foreign horror productions are actually much more terrifying than those produced stateside—bolder, bloodier, darkly funnier, and more haunting for their willingness to leave questions unanswered.
