The online guide allows you the fun of customizing your Restaurant Week experience. Choose restaurants by neighborhood, cuisine type, price, and dining values such as supporting Black-owned businesses, or spots that prioritize local sourcing under the “Eat Local First” initiative. The guide also categorizes options by dining format — helpful for deciding your dress code of choice.

Originally part of a decade-old event, Seattle Restaurant Week was reorganized in 2020 to include more restaurants and better support the community during quieter seasons. Today, any local eatery can participate with a nominal fee, offering not just prix-fixe menus but also meal kits and cocktail add-ons to enhance the experience.
Seattle Restaurant Week is organized by the Seattle Good Business Network, a nonprofit that supports local businesses and the community.
