Celebrate Seattle Restaurant Week by diving headfirst into a bowl of dumplings from Korochka Tavern. Korochka Tavern
During the twice-yearly Seattle Restaurant Week, which runs from April 3-16, a slew of participating restaurants, bars, cafes, food trucks, caterers, and pop-ups across Seattle serve up to two special menus for $20, $35, $50, and $65 for lunch and/or dinner. Businesses may participate with indoor or outdoor dining, takeout, delivery, or meal kits, and many offer a “give a meal” option so diners can donate to their in-house community meal programs or to Good Food Kitchens. Over 200 restaurants are participating, so it can be daunting to figure out where you want to eat first. To narrow it down, we’ve rounded up this list of restaurants worth trying so you can make the most of this event—everywhere from Taku and Communion to Korochka Tavern and Kottu. We’ve also noted which ones have been designated as Asian American and/or Pacific Islander-owned, Black-owned, women-owned, LGBTQ-owned, and/or family-owned, according to the official Seattle Restaurant Week guide. For more ideas, check out our food and drink guide.

Thanks to changes in recent years, pop-ups can now participate in SRW, and we’re all for it. Pastry chef Karen Sandoval’s up-and-coming pop-up specializing in scratch-made pan dulce will be slinging baked goods this year, and it’s a great chance to try them out if you haven’t made it to one of her events yet. Choose from a $20 box with strawberry mini conchas, Mexican chocolate mini conchas, orange cardamom polvorónes (shortbread), and a blueberry mantecada (muffin), or a $35 box with strawberry, Mexican chocolate, and vanilla bean mini conchas, orange cardamom polvorónes, and a strawberry rhubarb empanada.
