Best Oysters in Seattle. They open at 4pm and there's usually a line. Either get there at 4pm or put your name on the list and go next door to their Italian Bar, Barnacle, and wait comfortably.

Everybody knows about Pike Place, but there are some great spots that people overlook. Skip Starbucks (its not actually the first one), the flying fish guys, and Pike Place Chowder. Head to the Oriental Market for Filipino food, DeLaurenti Italian Market, Piroshky Piroshky for Russian baked goods (get there early though to beat the line), and Mee Sum Pastry for great Hom Bow.

The best Poke in Seattle. A converted convience store that serves only poke. Can be a long line, but it moves fast and is worth it. Take it to go to one of the local breweries like Fremont and have it with a nice NW IPA.

For me, this is the best Chicago style pizza I've ever had. It also has a bit of Detroit with the burnt cheese on the crust. They deliver through Caviar to our house and just opened a new location in Phinney Ridge.

Brewer was a chemist, so expect very clean beers and you'll be spot on. Go for the Hefeweizen or the Brown Ale. Great patio when the weather is nice. Solid array of food trucks.
