Alexa Jane BrooksDecember 28, 2014Gnudi blew my mind, get it while they have it! Parsnip cake was bomb. Drinks are so unique. This place brings the art of taste experimenting down to a science.
Christina HuJune 15, 2014Get the seats up by the kitchen table, you can see the chefs at work. Simple and delicious food. For brunch get the warm scones with honey, smoked smelt and seaweed, and pork sausage and beans.
Jessie LeeAugust 28, 2014one of the most mind blowing dining experience I've had. All ingredients are organic and fresh.The menu changes daily due to the supply of the perishables.Highly recommend to go early to avoid queuing
Cole KennedyFebruary 22, 2017These crispy potatoes with smoked fish and a mussel emulsion are really just a fancy (and flipping delicious) way of presenting french fries with bacon and ketchup.
Patricia LeeJuly 25, 2015Salted grapefruit soda (tastes like tamarind) 👍 especially if you need something to settle down your stomach after a Friday night 🙈 small bites menu at the bar has a fantastic selection of meats.
@24KAugust 20, 2014Looking for a hip place to enjoy fresh local fare? Sitka and Spruce fit the bill for me on my first visit to the Seattle area.
Mingfei YanOctober 16, 2013Awesome spot, intimate place. Simple menu, fresh ingredient, awesome taste! Nothing would go wrong, just order anything. Love the open kitchen!
Clément FaydiSeptember 14, 2014This place is awesome, great menu, great and not insanely expensive wines (they can even serve half glasses), beautiful interior design.
Michelle NelsonSeptember 5, 2013The restaurant offers half glasses of wine which allows for many tastings and pairings. Waiter had great wine suggestions. Halibut meal was fantastic. Chilled tomato soup was also tasty.
Daniel MejiaFebruary 16, 2018And the poached steelhead trout (with black trumpet mushrooms, leeks and some celery root purée) was incredible
Andreas KleinerJune 20, 2016Just sit in the bar have a few cocktails and some small plates ,not overly impressed by the entrées.- Cole KennedyFebruary 22, 2017How had I not discovered the magic of seaweed broth sooner? It just makes sense that this cod would be seared and bathed in umami goodness. The menu changes; the quality doesn't.
Margot MazurSeptember 18, 2016Delicious salads and great wine menu. Awesome place for a vegan looking for a nice dinner.
EaterOctober 31, 2013This quintessential Seattle restaurant can take something as simple as a bowl of peaches and yogurt and make it somehow transcendent.
LaurissaJune 25, 2016Really fun, lovely atmosphere. And the food was delicious. We loved the summer lettuces and duck.
Trophy Cupcakes and PartyJanuary 23, 2012Sitka and Spruce is one of my favorite rooms in the city...it's a gorgeous space with gorgeous food. Try anything with tahini...just try anything it is all amazing. Thank you Matt Dillon!
MëlänïOctober 27, 2016Went for brunch and really enjoyed the fried sourdough toast with a soft egg and creamed chanterelles.
Tucked in Melrose Market's collection of foodie retail and cafes in a former automotive shop, Sitka & Spruce offers a creative fresh menu of NW tapas to share. Enjoy relaxed dining in open kitchen. Read more
Jeff SavageMarch 28, 2017Menu changes all the time so you wanna go back again and again. Wine list is 💯
Katherine S.November 20, 2016After all of the great reviews, I was expecting something creative and delicious. What I experienced was disorganized staff and sub-par quality. Bummer!
Go for brunch on the weekend and be sure to order the scone. The scone, the butter and the seasonal fruit compote are a perfect plate.
Ashley RoseOctober 30, 2018Lots of yummy vegetable starters - the carrots stole the show. Enter through the Melrose Market
Seattle MetNovember 9, 2011Matt Dillon obeys the muse—and more often than not the muse has one heck of a palate. His free-flowing style brings diners home-kitchen-esque combinations that make eating at Sitka wicked good fun. Read more
Aaron WheelerMarch 22, 2017The chef's vegetarian offerings are out of control delicious. Have to come here waaaay more often!
Shelley KekunaFebruary 26, 2013Located in Melrose Market. Most awesome spot. Fresh flowers, meat, wine, cheese etc. space feels great & smells good.
Felix JaeckelNovember 24, 2014Fresh and seasonal driven menu. Tasting menu for larger groups at the big open kitchen table
Michael Brooks JrDecember 28, 2014pear cocktail, then try the gnudi, finish up with the parsnip dessert! One of the most unique places I've ever been to.
Nic WiseOctober 26, 2013Loved it. Great flavors. Mostly vege menu (not that it mattered) and wonderful staff. Recommended.
Bonnie LakeJuly 24, 2016Friday I took friends here and was disappointed. The portions were smaller and too "different." This has been my favorite restaurant now I'll change to Chop Shop.
Irays MunozJanuary 17, 2015Baked eggs with duck confit is a must , and great drinks. Try the evergreen buck.
Denise ColeJune 1, 2013Six of us and we ordered Chefs Choice. Superb food, complex flavors, great service = fabulous time!
Hard RockerJune 20, 2015Great food. Friendly staff. Recommend reserving a table. Menu changes daily.
Christoph POctober 2, 2015Menu changes very often. Great produce driven food, best served family style.
John TravisMay 23, 2017They don't actually check their messages. Beautiful place. But like their sister restaurant The London Plane, the LA arrogance is unbecoming.
AmateurConciergeSeptember 29, 2018This is like the hipster Matt’s in the Market (but not AS good). Hang at the bar if u can’t grab a table
Genevieve ChanFebruary 16, 2014It was awesome. We went right at 5pm and the service was excellent. Lovely room.
Pejman Pour-MoezziJune 6, 2013Fun, creative menus. Good veggie options. Usually 1 hour wait but they accept limited reservations
Blaze JayneJuly 29, 2015Try everything you can. And sit near the kitchen so you can watch the magic.- Seattle MetJune 30, 2010The “food studio” idea appealed to Dillon, who wanted a pastry–coffee–small lunch operation by day and whose ardor for fresh seasonal ingredients translated well to nightly improvisations on small pla Read more
Vienna CatMarch 18, 2011clever yet simple locally sourced dishes. seasonal menus, friendly staff. sit outside and enjoy dessert + wine
