Food Scene

A favorite of the locals - their crispy garlic chicken, also known as "crack chicken" is usually a hit as well as their specialty drinks - try the lychee or ginger martini. There is almost always a wait so try to make a reservation if you're able. They are good about getting you a drink while you wait. Closed on Monday.

This pizza place serves Neapolitan style pizza - Cozy atmosphere, tasty pizza and salads. Off the beaten path. They offer outdoor seating during summer. Inside it can get loud because of the tight quarters but I find it romantic and inviting.

There is usually a line on weekends out the door, but it moves quickly so don't get discouraged. Coffee service is a bit sluggish and not my favorite in the area. They also have sandwiches for a lunch on the go and some excellent breads. Additional locations on Capitol Hill and in Burien prove this place has a loyal following.

Cactus is across the street from Alki Beach. During warm weather they have outdoor seating and open the large windows in the bar. Shrimp tacos are one of my favorites. Vast selection of tequila - this is the place to get your margarita. Usually a lively scene in the bar around dinner time and on weekends. cactusrestaurants.com

Everyone has their favorite flavor, but their signature, the salted caramel, is the bomb. Great alone, elevated to something greater in a waffle cone. Or try it in a cup with some hot fudge. If you think you know salted caramel and you love it, you might be making a return trip before you leave.

Located next to the West Seattle ferry dock. I like the pork sliders or the tacos. They have this sauce - nunya - you can buy a jar to take home. Authentic shave ice for dessert. Outdoor seating too.

Duke's is an institution, but unlike some places that have been around forever, they keep making adjustments to keep up the quality and image. Good seafood and a solid menu. Outdoor seating and near Alki Beach. This is a safe bet for a good/casual meal.

If you love dumplings this is the place. Be prepared to wait and shop around while you do. University Village has lots of good shops and if you're not stuffed you can grab an ice cream at Molly Moon's after.

Great views of downtown Seattle - especially at night. There's a nice long path to walk, run or bike also.

Essentials

Upscale grocery store that has a good selection of hot foods as well as grab and go cold/deli items. Bonus, they also carry Salumi salami (by the meat and cheese counter) - ask them for a sample if you're not sure, and then take some home to your friends.
