Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Waterfront / Belltown

Service (Crystal) was excellent and her recommendations were delicious. It got a little loud by the time we left at 7:45 but since we usually dine on the earlier side it will not deter us from going back. So many choices that we might make it a monthly event!

Absolutely love this place. The atmosphere is very relaxed, the food and drinks are superb, so is the view and so is service (for the most part). I almost always order from the special or seasonal menu, and this time was no exception. Winter salad, scallops, special drink and espresso. The ingredients are simple but masterfully prepared. Sometimes difficult to get a reservation, so worth planning ahead. Highly recommend.

Excellent sushi, excellent service. Sushi Kashiba's omakase experience is very much like in Japan, with your own sushi chef for a party of 2. The preparations were all delicious, using local seafood and seafood from around the world, including Japan, Spain, British Columbia, etc. I know very little about sake and asked the server for help in making a selection. She got me exactly what I wanted, despite my inability to describe it well. The omakase experience is not cheap, especially after adding drinks, service charge, and tax, but sometimes, you get what you pay for. It's not the kind of experience one can get just anywhere in the USA and I enjoy myself at Sushi Kashiba every time I go there.

Everything was great especially the home made desserts.

Food at Lola’s is always superb. Today, I had the lamb kebab and it was terrific. I would have loved it to be less sweet, but it was still really good!
