The Seattle Delivery & Takeout Guide For A Big Night In added to Google Docs

The Seattle Delivery & Takeout Guide For A Big Night In

Spending all day, every day in our apartments can make time feel meaningless. Saturdays blend into Wednesdays, consistent sleep schedules are a distant memory, and everyone says “it’s five o’clock somewhere” when it’s quite literally five o’clock nowhere. But the fact of the matter is anniversaries, birthdays, and conclusions of sh*tty weeks are still happening. When you feel like having a dinner that properly acknowledges those occasions, order takeout or delivery from any of the 20 spots on this guide.

All restaurants featured on The Infatuation are selected by our editorial team. The Seattle Delivery & Takeout Guide For A Big Night In is presented by Uber Eats. In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, supporting our local restaurant community has never been more important. Uber Eats customers can now give directly to the restaurants they love at checkout. 100% will go to the restaurant. Order now to support. See app for details.

The Spots Bateau $ $ $ $ Burgers , Steaks in Capitol Hill $$$$ 1060 E Union St 9.0 /10

Bateau serves the best burger in the city, and for $30, they’re selling a kit that has everything you need to make two glorious Bateau burgers at home - including a pound of ground beef, caramelized onion jam, aioli, and a couple of homemade buns. Open a bottle of red wine, cut up a potato and throw it in the oven, and you basically have Bateau in your dining room. Just without the giant chalkboard and back display window of raw meat.

Canlis $ $ $ $ American , Experimental , Molecular Gastronomy in Queen Anne $$$$ 2576 Aurora Ave N 7.8 /10

If you’ve always wanted to go to Canlis but never made it there, you can now get a family dinner delivered to you for around $60 per person. Sure, you’ll miss out on the generous hospitality and Lake Union views, but you’ll still get a meal full of dishes like braised wagyu short rib, herb-crusted leg of lamb, duck cassoulet, and of course, the delicious Canlis salad with cheese and bacon. If you want it to really seem like a night at the restaurant, you could request a family member or roommate to press your tablecloth with a portable iron.

Homer $ $ $ $ Mediterranean in Beacon Hill $$$$ 3013 Beacon Ave S 8.4 /10

A big night in doesn’t need to be complicated - it can be swiping some warm pita in a bunch of different dips, or a perfectly-cooked roast chicken. And Homer has both of these things on their “Homer At Home” menu. It’s full of mezze like hummus and creamy labneh, homemade breads from their big oven, sandwiches filled with braised lamb and tahini, and the aforementioned roast chicken. Preorder online, drive to the restaurant to pick it all up, and don’t forget a cup of soft serve to pop into your freezer until dessert.

Kamonegi $ $ $ $ Japanese in Fremont $$$$ 1054 N 39th St 9.0 /10

To order Kamonegi for delivery, it has to be a special occasion - because there’s a $75 minimum during the week (and $120 on weekends). A lot of the individual items are reasonably priced, though, like onigiri and katsu sandos to creamy duck dipping soba and Korean-inspired cioppino. If you’re looking to order a couple more things to hit the minimum, some nori fries, jammy eggs, and tempura shrimp are all great options.

Tarsan i Jane $ $ $ $ Spanish in Fremont $$$$ 4012 Leary Way NW Not

Rated

Yet

Tarsan I Jane, an outstanding Spanish tasting-menu spot in Fremont, is helping you celebrate with their $49 paella kit, which includes the ingredients to make calamari and mushroom paella, kale salad, and a savory pastry appetizer and chamomile pudding for dessert. You can also add on things to make the evening even more special, like a gin and tonic kit, or a snack pack involving chorizo, potato chips, pickles, and manchego.

Maneki $ $ $ $ Japanese , Sushi in International District $$$$ 304 6th Ave S 8.8 /10

Seattle’s oldest Japanese restaurant is pretty hard to get into if you don’t plan ahead. But now they have online ordering, which means it’s easier than ever to get a huge spread of fried snacks like croquette and gyoza, plenty of raw fish, teriyaki, and their very tasty beef sukiyaki. And since you’ll probably eat your meal in socks, it’ll (almost) be like sitting in one of Maneki’s private tatami rooms.

Delancey $ $ $ $ Pizza , Italian in Ballard $$$$ 1415 NW 70th St Not

Rated

Yet

Ordering pizza already means you’re going to have a good night, but Delancey’s pizzas are some of the best in town. Their pies have an excellent char, with topping combinations like ricotta and garlic or fennel sausage and grana padano. Add a bottle of wine and an appetizer like burrata with onion jam or wood-fired brussels sprouts with anchovy and crispy shallots and there’s no way your friends on Zoom won’t be jealous of you dinner spread.

Reckless Noodle House $ $ $ $ Vietnamese , Fusion in Central District $$$$ 2519 S Jackson St 8.6 /10

Sometimes, an occasion calls for you to put your takeout on nice plates and pour your beer in a frosted glass instead of drinking it from the growler again. The kind-of-upscale Vietnamese and Thai dishes from Reckless Noodle House are perfect for a night like that. We’re talking about things like braised beef cheek noodles with Szechuan peppercorns and pickled mustard greens, coconut fried rice with chili jam and pastrami, vermicelli curry bowls, and wok-seared turmeric rockfish. Just don’t forget to add their crispy duck rolls on the side.

Seastar Restaurant & Raw Bar $ $ $ $ American , Seafood in Bellevue $$$$ 205 108th Ave NE 8.3 /10

If you live in Bellevue and it’s your anniversary, or your pet’s gotcha day, you want to celebrate right. Allow us to direct you to Seastar, our favorite upscale place on the Eastside. A three-course meal involving Dungeness crab bisque, filet mignon, and handmade artisanal chocolate truffles can be a reality with their curbside pickup. While you’re at it, all bottles of wine under $150 are 50% off.

Taurus Ox $ $ $ $ Laotian in Capitol Hill $$$$ 1523 E Madison St Not

Rated

Yet

Ordering a couple of Taurus Ox’s stupendous Lao burgers will make it feel like your birthday, or at least like a celebratory “I made it to Tuesday” night. But in addition to the double smashburger completely covered in spicy pork mayo, jowl bacon, and provolone, the menu at this Laotian counter has a ton of other great dishes. From noodle stir-fries topped with crispy chicken cracklings to the best beef jerky we’ve ever had, a meal from Taurus Ox can make any night feel special.

Asadero Sinaloa $ $ $ $ Mexican , Steaks in Ballard $$$$ 5405 Leary Ave NW Not

Rated

Yet

Asadero, the Mexican steakhouse we go to when we want both filet mignon and tacos, is selling a steak and wine dinner for two. It comes with a choice of some extremely high-quality cuts of meat (ultra or A5 wagyu steak), rice, guacamole, Nutella flan, and a bottle of red wine. It’s $139 or $189 based on the cut of beef you pick - call the restaurant at 206-659-4499 to place an order.

Order delivery Little Duck $ $ $ $ Chinese in University District $$$$ 4100 Roosevelt Way NE 8.2 /10

The only thing that makes us happier than Little Duck offering delivery is the fact that social distancing has been doing good things for the environment. This U-District Chinese spot serves incredibly comforting dishes like eggplant in garlic sauce, buttered corn and pine nuts, pork and pickled cabbage dumplings, caramelized sugar sweet potatoes, and double-cooked pork slices in sweet and sour sauce. It’s a little pricier than other Chinese restaurants in town, which is why it’s the perfect splurge for a special night.

Raphael Soldi Copine $ $ $ $ American , French in Ballard $$$$ 6460 24th Ave NW 8.7 /10

Copine’s weekly Sunday Supper (a takeout spread you bring home as a family-style meal) has transitioned to a Thursday-Sunday Supper - the meal consists of an entree like buttermilk fried chicken or braised pork belly, and then a bunch of side dishes. You’ll also get their delicious thyme challah rolls for you to completely overload with butter in the privacy of your own home.

Pair $ $ $ $ French in Ravenna/Roosevelt $$$$ 5501 30th Ave NE Not

Rated

Yet

If a reasonably-priced French meal sounds up your alley, Pair is there for you. Their takeout menu is a condensed version of their regular dinner menu, so you can expect dishes like butter lettuce salad with chevre toast, moules frites, Parisian gnocchi, thyme-roasted chicken, and potato leek gratin.

Sushi Kappo Tamura $ $ $ $ Japanese , Sushi in Eastlake $$$$ 2968 Eastlake Ave E Not

Rated

Yet

We live in a world where you can eat an omakase dinner from Sushi Kappo Tamura in the same space where you do yoga workout videos. In addition to the omakase, you can order a whole bunch of nigiri a la carte, whether that’s fatty tuna, king salmon belly, scallop seared with yuzu, geoduck, otoro, and even uni.

Order delivery Ma’ono Fried Chicken & Whisky $ $ $ $ Korean , Fusion , Southern in West Seattle $$$$ 4437 California Ave SW Not

Rated

Yet

They say that you shouldn’t judge people based on their possessions, but if you have a pile of chicken tenders, kimchi mac and cheese, curried bacon fried rice, and maybe some spicy fried chicken on the side, we’d say you’re rolling in riches. Get all of this from Ma’Ono either for pickup or delivery online.

Deru Market $ $ $ $ American , Pizza , Sandwiches in Kirkland $$$$ 723 9th Ave Ste D 8.5 /10

If you just want a fantastic farm-to-table meal full of food that makes you feel good, order from Deru in Kirkland. Building a dinner involving their farm greens with roasted carrots, feta, and herbs, a couple of wood-fired pizzas, and definitely an order of rosemary parmesan fries is one of the best things you can get right now. Don’t forget to add on some focaccia and a couple slices of their incredible layer cakes.

Paju $ $ $ $ Korean in Queen Anne $$$$ 11 Mercer St 8.8 /10

Paju serves some of the best Korean food in town. And the squid ink fried rice with bacon and smoked quail egg, the seafood pancake topped with a tonkatsu drizzle and bonito flakes, steak bulgogi, and fried chicken wings, are going to change the way you feel about your couch. It won’t be “the place where you watch TV” anymore - it’s now going to be “the place where you can eat an amazing meal from Paju.”

Momosan Momosan $ $ $ $ Japanese , Ramen , Sushi in International District $$$$ 504 5th Ave S Not

Rated

Yet

Besides the ramen from Momosan, you should tack on to your order a bunch of exciting snacks like gochujang popcorn shrimp, spicy wontons, softshell crab bao, duck fat fries, tuna poke, and more. You can pick up from the restaurant or have everything delivered if you live less than two miles away from their location in the ID.

Cafe Juanita $$$$ 9702 NE 120th Pl

This upscale Italian restaurant in Kirkland has transformed into an online market full of pantry items like parmesan crackers and sourdough bread, as well as kits to make a phenomenal meal for one at home - from goat cheese nettle ravioli with mint butter to fresh tagliatelle and containers of lamb sugo. There are no wrong answers unless you don’t add a pint of their delicious hazelnut gelato.

Photo Essay: The Best Patios in Toronto

The Summer is in full swing. If you are a Toronto city-dweller and condo owner, you are probably looking for a reason to stay outside and soak the sun as much as you can. With so many restaurants in Toronto adding patios, we have a good news for you: It’s possible! And if you are not much of a patio hopper, but like to choose the right one for your needs, we picked five different, but equally stunning patios for our all-summery photo essay. Which one do you like the best?

Barrio

Amsterdam BrewHouse

Sky Yard

The Beet

The Rectory Café

Barrio

Address: 884 Queen Street East Website: barrioonqueen.com Jamie’s tip: Passion Fruit Margarita and any appetizer with nacho chips

Barrio

Barrio is a playfully decorated Mexican restaurant in the heart of the city. If you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere and some spicy flavours, you will fall in love with this place.

Food at Barrio is not only good but aesthetically pleasing as well

If you had to choose just one patio to sit at this summer, go with Barrio. This Mexico inspired restaurant has an east-facing patio, that is situated away from busy traffic. Colourful Mexican-themed mural makes the patio a nice private part of the restaurant and a bar on the other side just calls you to order one of their famous margaritas or a sho of tequila, if you are feeling adventurous.

Barrio’s patio with it’s string lights

Traditional mexican beer has to be on tap

The patio is less busy during the day

The menu consists mostly of dishes you may expect in a mexican eatery. Their Antojitos – appetizers consist mainly from the cult favourite Guac and chips ($10), Chimichangas ($12), Taquitos ($8) or an assortment of soups or salad.

Barrio menu and their drinks

We opted for the grilled corn ($7).

Grilled corn at Barrio

As the main course, they serve various tacos, tortas (sandwiches), burritos and bowls. If you are not a fan of carb-overeating you can opt for Diablo Shrimp ($22), served with rice and diablo sauce and chips, Pescado Asado ($26) – which is a whole fried seabass,m or Arrechara ($23), steak with salsa ranchera and Mexican rice.

Nachos here are exceptional

A bit of classic tacos can’t hurt

Torta anybody?

Although Barrio’s drink menu includes many delicious treats, including favourite Spanish Sangria, what Barrio does best are their Margaritas. Dressed in various colours and with various flavours, served in very instagramable mason jars, it’s exactly the summer treat you can’t miss.

Margaritas at Barrio

When in Barrio, go with Margarita

Amsterdam BrewHouse

Address: 245 Queens Quay West Website: amsterdambrewhouse.com Jamie’s tip: Lighter beer flights

Amsterdam Brewhouse

Amsterdam Brewhouse is a craft beer restaurant serving Canada-made beer paired with the best pub-styled food. Their location right on the waterfront provides the best views with your meal you could have asked for.

This is a patio with the best views

One part is under a roof

Other parts are not covered at all

Their patio (or patios, since Amsterdam has two story patio) is overlooking Lake Ontario, so there’s basically no bad seat in the house. Beware that they don’t take reservations for the outside seating, so with patio tables, it’s first- come, first-served. In summer and especially during weekend rushes, the waiting times are more than 45 minutes for the table, but once you are seated, it’s really worth it.

Lake view on one side…

…CN Tower on the other

They have non-pasteurized local beers on tap, of which Boneshaker seems to be a cult favourite by now. They also serve seasonal brews, so make sure to ask your server about them.

Beer and tacos are the perfect combination

Salmon Niçoise

If you can’t decide which beer to try, perfectly combined beer flights, with a selection of 4x 5oz beers. servings might be for you. You can choose between lighter beers, more hoppier beers, stronger beers or go for a selection of various strengths and flavours.

Lighter beer flights

Which combination will you choose?

When it comes to food, what you could expect from a brewery, you get. They serve mostly popular bar food like Amsterdam pretzel ($7), Chicken wings ($14.5-$27), Tacos ($14) or Poutine ($8).

Will you go with Kokean Pulled Pork or 3 Speed Fish Tacos?

Tacos go great with lighter beer

For mains, you can opt for salads, burgers, sandwiches, smoked meat specialities or even pizza. Their menu is long and full of surprises.

The scenic view is insane

The food looks delicious

Drake’s Sky Yard

Address: 1150 Queen Street West Website: thedrakehotel.ca Jamie’s tip: The Maharajah coctail ($14)

The Drake Hotel

Sky Yard is a very trendy roof patio in Drake Hotel. Drake hotel is established like on of the places to go for club-like vibe even if you just want some lunch and a sip of a delicious drink.

Bit of luxury on week day is no problem here

Fancy a drink? Bar is right there on the rooftop

You will love the Sky Yard’s decor

Their Sky Yard patio is the it place to go on Saturday night. The patio itself is privately covered from onlookers from the street, without losing it’s views onto the city, but is also often very crowded with drink-slurping groups.

Perfect spot for some fun

Empty chairs are hard to come by at Sky Yard

But if you do get a spot, the wooden benches are really comfortable

The decor alone is a reason to visit. White comfy booth-like benches and subtle but colourful touches here and there make this patio one of the most photo-worthy in the city.

The decor alone is a reason to visit

Colorful and playful, yet tasteful

As for the menu, Sky Yard has all you would want to dine out on a sunny afternoon. From fresh apetizers ranging from $6 to $19, through plates meant for sharing ($8-$39), sushi ($11-$100) and other more traditionally served dishes.

There’s almost everything on the menu

The food is really good

So many pretty colors

Most groups go to Drake’s hotel for it’s club-like atmosphere and drinks, that range between $14 and $16. Of course, you can pop-in early for brunch and try anything from their special brunch menu.

You come for drinks and stay for food

The Maharajah coctail is really good

Better make a reservation beforehand if you want to dine here

The Beet

Address: 2968 Dundas Street West Website: thebeet.ca Jamie’s tip: Tempeh Tacos ($9)

The Beet

The Beet took over their neighbourhood restaurant Passenger and merged these two into bigger space with a good old-fashioned street patio you were looking for.

The Beet and Passenger now share a space

There’s a lot of summery drinks on the menu

Taking a fair share of the sidewalk, separated from street walkers only by iron fence enclosement, this patio makes a perfect spot for some people watching.

Good old-fashioned city patio

Perfect for people watching

As for the food, the Beet really makes the difference. Their dishes contain only certified organic ingredients and local or Fair Trade items Their pride themselves in being a socially responsible business, using eco-friendly packaging and reclaimed materials.

Everything here is organic, local or fair-trade

Even the decor is eco-friendly

If you want to try a bit of healthier eating this summer and still enjoy a good city patio, visit Beet. They serve All Day Breakfast (ranged from $6 to $16), Appetizers ($6-$9), Salads ($12-$14) and Wraps ($13 or $14).

Berry Smoothie and Tacos

They grown their own herbs right on the spot

For those really hungry they’ll prepare various Bowls, Burgers or Sandwiches. If you really want to taste what Beets is all about, try their house special Loaded Avocado Combo ($15). It contains avocado stuffed with brown coconut Thai rice and veggies with spicy peanut sauce, sprouts. It’s served with salad, toast with house pesto and daily soup as a bonus. Other than that, most main menu items range from $13 to $15, with only Norwich Farm Chuck Burger priced at $18, so this restaurant will not make that much of a dent in your wallet.

Tempeh Tacos are delicious here

This restaurant despite being eco-friendly and organic, they didn’t forget about the most important people-kids. They have all-separate kid-menu items including some finger food, nibble plates or even some baby food. Kid menu will cost you from $2 for the pureed fruit and vegetables to $8.

Perfect summer treat

The Rectory Café

Address: 102 Lakeshore Ave Website: therectorycafe.com Jamie’s tip: Grilled Cajun Calamari ($15)

The Rectory Café

The Rectory Cafe is a small, scenic restaurant inside a history building on Wards Island. The building itself is a remnant from times the Toronto Islands were used as vacation homes for wealthy families looking to escape the city for the summer, but not too far away.

Welcome to The Rectory

Wards Island is a short ferry ride away

This two-story stucco residence from 1948 is one of the only two houses that survived when the city decided to demolish the houses after Second World War due to flooding problems. Now the building became part of the Land Trust, and now contains offices and community meeting rooms as well as The Rectory Café and Island Art Gallery.

Rectory has a long and interesting history and they make really refreshing drinks

Their patio is situated in a wide would-be garden of the house, with a surprising number of tables available. It’s shaded by nearby trees and grants stunning views into surrounding nature and nearby lakeshore.

Everybody will find a table

Their patio is right in the heart of nature

Menu is fish and sea-food centered, with various starters ($7-$22), assortment of Sandwiches (around $15) and Entrees ranging from $14 for French Omelette with white sharp cheddar, toasted multigrain bread + mixed greens, climbing as high as $35 for Wellington County Striploin served with daily vegetables, garlic mashed potatoes topped with a smoked blue cheese & walnut cream.

The menu is fish-centered

Orange Miso Salmon

The star of our visit were the Grilled Cajun Calamari ($15). With the perfect balance of anchovy parsley sauce and served with jicama slaw, they were a show-stopper.

Grilled Cajun Calamari

Perfect blend of sea food with some parsley sauce

Note for the season: Since the Toronto Islands are closed to the public due to flooding, there are restricted rules for the ferry. If you want to eat at The Rectory, please ask the ticket seller at the ferry terminal in order to be allowed on the ferry.

It was worth the trip
