Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in West Seattle/Alki

Superb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.

Our favorite place over the years! We love how the restaurant is tucked into the main building and the secure parking garage below. The food is always perfect and the staff knows exactly what wine to pair. We love the bar since it’s cozy and the tables have a bench seat on one side. The bar is beautiful and perfectly lit. The dessert tray is the best - we love how they bring it over so you can see what each one is!

Salty's exceeded our expectations. We have lived in Seattle for over 20 years and never had dinner at Salty's. We didn't know whether or not to trust the reviews. We absolutely loved our dinner and evening. The staff all the way from the hostess to the kitchen staff to the servers were extremely welcoming, nice and professional. The atmosphere is really special with dim lights, beautiful holiday decorations and a stunning view of the Seattle Downtown. The food was also fantastic. Salty's has an old school, classy vibe which was exactly what we were looking for to enjoy a joint birthday and holiday family meal.

The warm, welcoming ambience, beautifully prepared dishes, and expert service were fantastic! We also appreciated the lovely personal touches, including a complimentary birthday treat (presented on a bouquet) and a personalized birthday card signed by the staff. We can't wait to go back!

Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back again.
