Best American Restaurants in Seattle Center / Lower Queen Anne

food was excellent, room was beautiful, very chic. the service was unbelievable, really one of the best experiences we have had.

This is our first visit since the advent of the Kraken Hockey Team in Seattle and the place was hopping. Service was awesome even though it was super busy and loud. In about 45 minutes people left for the game and it was much less crowded and noise level much lower. Food was excellent and ambiance our favorite in Seattle. We will return but not on a game night.

My wife and I visited Cutters and sat at the bar for happy hour. Andra took very good care of us and the food and drink prices were very good as well the food and drinks were excellent.

I recently dined at Stateside in Seattle, and it was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish! The ambiance, the food, and the impeccable service all combined to make this one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. A special shoutout to Jessie, the bartender, who went above and beyond to make my evening unforgettable. Jessie crafted an incredible Piña Colada—perfectly balanced, refreshing, and utterly delightful. On top of that, Jessie’s food recommendations were spot on, showcasing both knowledge and passion for the menu. Everything I tried was an absolute masterpiece. The duck rolls were perfectly crispy with an explosion of savory flavor in every bite. The ahi crudo was light, fresh, and beautifully presented—a true testament to the restaurant’s attention to detail. The creamy crunchy prawns delivered on both texture and flavor, a must-try for anyone visiting. And don’t even get me started on the duck egg custard—a truly unique dessert that ended the meal on a perfect note. Overall, Stateside has raised the bar for what a dining experience should be. The food is exceptional, and the staff, especially Jessie, make you feel completely taken care of. I can’t wait to come back and explore more of this incredible menu. Thank you, Stateside!

Really delicious and loved that it was gluten free. We all wanted so many things on the menu. But we had an 8:15 pm reservation and unfortunately a number of things were sold out. Still, a solid place to recommend.
