Go there for breakfast and vinyl. I can't pass up the West Seattle Breakfast Burrito with Aardvark Hot Sauce, but my dad always orders the Little Richard.

Delicious fusion of Korea and Hawaii. I go for the Kalbi beef tacos/sliders/salad. The KimChi fried rice is also great. **This is the best patio in the city.** Plus, if you order a drink on the patio you can also order food, which almost always means you get to skip the long line in front. Also, great launchpad to the water taxi and downtown Seattle.

Great Thai food. I have several north Seattle friends who say Buddha Ruksa is THE BEST Thai food in town. They come to WS for this reason.

OMG! There is a reason there is a line out the door. It's worth the wait. Try a double baked croissant. The sandwiches are also incredible.

Solid fresh-Mexican cuisine and tasty drinks. The SETTING however really sets Cactus apart. Located on Alki beach, the garage-door-walls get thrown up when the weather is nice. Enjoy a couple fish tacos, a coco mojito, and some breeze off the Sound.

Arts & Culture

For the last few years ArtsWest shows have consistently featured top-notch performances and challenging themes. This theater is a rising star in the Seattle scene and is often the "hotest ticket in town." Eg., the jaw dropping Octaroon in 2018.
