I tried Italian Family Pizza on 1st and it was delicious. They lay the sauce on top which may be an unfamiliar style to some but the sauce and crust were just right.

Now that Whiskey Bar is closed where are all the skinheads pretending to not be skinheads going to hang out?

Shanik opens in December. You're trailing on the more significant openings so there's a clue that Seattle Indian is stepping way up in the next couple weeks.

Also: with the arrival of that Pagliacci in Madison Valley, there is now at long last delivery to the Central District. Huzzah!

@3: Thanks for the tip, but/and Shanik opens THIS COMING MONDAY. FREAK OUT!!!

We like to save up all the openings for a while and give them a proper listing in print, which is what this represents; we try to get the bigger openings on Slog as they happen, too, but we're pretty damn busy. Nosh Pit blog and Eater Seattle do a beautiful job of documenting every time a chef in Seattle sneezes, if you want to keep tabs on them—also they are edited by really nice people.

Hey Bethany
Just wondering what the $ sign range is .. does a $11 to-go sandwich qualify as just 1 $ ... just curious where this all sits these days. To me a single $ sign is like Pho-Bac, taco truck pricing .. Skillet/Smith is a $$ in my book. But that might not be how you rank things.

@6: Pretty much like you say, though the $11 sandwich is a bit of a conundrum. One $ is meant to signify that a person could get full for around $10 or under, $$ up to $20-ish, $$$ more than that. That's without alcohol or other pricey liquid. We're with you on Skillet (or at least Skillet Diner? Skillet-the-Airstream is in that weird middle zone) and Smith.

Pettirosso above should be $-$$, with their new dinner menu... we will fix!

Wait, we got through an entire update without anything in Ballard? IMPOSSIBLE!

T-Doug--the nickname--needed to be killed off yesterday.

Actually the first LEED-certified pizzeria in Seattle was Pizza Fusion, on capitol hill (I worked there). It was open from Oct 2008 to I think March 2009. The business sunk like a rock and this city didn't really give it a chance, they had great vegan & gluten-free pizza. We had no earthly idea why it didn't take off, or at least plainly remain stable

@11 - Because it was like putting a salad on a pizza and when people want pizza they want GREASE. I went once and never even considered going back.
