The cuisine has been acclaimed as Seattle's best by the media and more importantly, by local diners.

    We had a delicious dinner consisting of local food including roasted sturgeon, duck ragu and mushroom gnocchi—definitely not what you would consider PNW standards. That’s what makes this place so incredibly special. This restaurant is the quiet and singular alternative to the many corporate/chain-owned restaurants you find everywhere in Seattle. A gem.

    We were looking for a cozy place to eat on a rainy Seattle evening and Single Shot did not disappoint. The food was excellent. Craft cocktails were well balanced. Service was also on point. We noticed several regulars rolling in throughout our dining experience, all who were greeted warmly from the team at Single Shot. Always a good sign!! We will definitely be back!

    Superb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.

    Excellent place to go for a Christmas dinner night out! We originally had 4:30pm reservations but our flight got in early and traffic was light getting to the restaurant. We arrived about 3:15 and asked if they could take us early and they were more than accommodating and sat us immediately. Our server, Hannah, was so good tonight. Having to work on Christmas was not an issue for her and she was just excellent! Plenty of support staff to help out, we got our drinks and food quickly. All the staff were wonderful!
