While this place is kind of a ride across town, it is worth the trip. reservations are a MUST. The food is incredible! I recommend the mussels, the Kalamazoo, salad and you MUST try all desserts. Their Mocktails are out of this world. And of course their are known for their stone oven pizza, but I suggest all the above.

A little ways north but a gorgeous spot with lots of drift wood. Place a stone on the feet of the Coast Salish sculpture. It was a place of trade and has a magical quality. We are living on Duwamish occupied land. Honor this place .
