Steelhead Diner

95 Pine St, Seattle, WA 98101, USA

The Steelhead Diner was recommended to us by Charles Finkel, the owner of the Pike Pub and Brewery. He had a good reason for liking the place—one of the best dishes on their menu is fresh fish fried in Pike ale batter, and after eating it we were mighty pleased he sent us there. In fact the Steelhead is one of the most popular evening destinations in downtown Seattle and almost everything on the menu has something to recommend it, not least because the food tends to be locally sourced (“nothing east of Idaho, nothing south of Oregon”) and much of it will come from the Pike Place market mere meters away. Certainly, if you want to try the black cod or the Dungeness crab that the Pacific Northwest goes nuts for, this is as good a place as any, and their wine list also reflects the huge popularity of Washington county’s vineyards.
