The bustling Capitol Hill dining scene is set to expand with the addition of two new restaurants by Pike Street Hospitality Group, known for its popular establishments such as Tango and Agua Verde Café.
Bar Tango, opening mid-October, aims to recreate the essence of the original Tango but in a more cozy environment, providing patrons with an intimate dining experience that reflects the charm of the neighborhood’s culinary past.
Meanwhile, Uncle Dom’s Italian Kitchen has officially opened its doors earlier this October, paying homage to traditional Italian cuisine and specifically the long-gone restaurants that once graced Capitol Hill.
Chef Michael Crossley, who previously headed the kitchen at Vito’s, is bringing his culinary expertise to this new venture, continuing the legacy of Italian dining in the area.
Moving up to the iconic Space Needle, the Loupe Lounge has resumed operation for the season, offering guests a unique rotating cocktail experience.
Reopened this week, this seasonal destination features a hefty price tag of $200 per person, which includes three cocktails and a lavish “tower” of small plates adorned with gourmet ingredients like Wagyu beef and caviar.
The reservation is required, with the cost covering tax and service fees, so for those who appreciate a high-end cocktail experience, this could be a tantalizing option while enjoying beautiful views of the city.
However, for less extravagant outings, there are significant changes happening at Pike Place Market as well.
Shug’s Soda Fountain, a beloved ice cream parlor in the Market, is set to close its original location on September 28, as the business prepares to relocate within the Market.
Details surrounding the opening date and new address remain under wraps, but fans of the parlor will certainly be looking out for updates.
Additionally, Cicchetti, a sibling of Serafina, will be reopening its doors on September 23 after a lengthy hiatus due to the pandemic.
Diners can look forward to the same Mediterranean small plates concept, but with a refreshed look and menu that promises something for both existing fans and new customers alike.
In another highlight for food lovers, In Pizza We Crust, a mobile pizza truck that has delighted locals for six years, is transitioning to a permanent brick-and-mortar establishment in West Seattle’s Admiral Junction, opening on September 24.
This move represents a significant milestone for the popular pizza truck as it establishes a fixed location for loyal patrons.
Lastly, Sabah, a Turkish restaurant that previously resided in a former Pietro’s Pizza Café in Renton, is expanding.
The eatery is set to unveil its second location in Kirkland this Saturday, offering locals a taste of Turkish flavors.
As Capitol Hill and surrounding areas see these exciting developments, food enthusiasts have plenty of options to explore this weekend.
