Seattle Restaurant Week: Best Bets for Family Dining

Seattle Restaurant Week isn't just for grownups. Here's where you can dine and indulge — with kids happily in tow.

By Chelsea Lin April 9, 2015

Twice a year, Seattle Restaurant Week offers diners a serious deal: three-course dinners for $30 and two-course lunches for $15. You’ve likely waited for date night to enjoy such a leisurely meal, but if you tack on the cost of a sitter, your dinner just went from a discount to a premium. Bring the whole family to these participating Restaurant Week eateries for a meal foodies of all ages will love. Click through the gallery and get ready to indulge April 12-16 and 19-23.

Purple – Bellevue

All four Purple locations (Kirkland, Bellevue, Woodinville and Seattle) are participating in Restaurant Week, but Bellevue’s is the only location that offers a milk flight for kids—caramel, chocolate, strawberry, and regular—so why not? Each location has a generous amount of space and a well-rounded kids’ menu, so you can’t go wrong with what’s closest to you.

SRW deal: Lunch and dinner selections vary: for lunch, try the wild boar bruschetta and pea ravioli. For dinner, choose from appetizers like a kale Caesar or mini baked brie; entrée options include chicken breast stuffed with spinach and ricotta or grilled flatiron. Don’t miss the stunning pistachio opera cake for dessert. (Lunch and dinner).

For the kids: This is a picky eater’s paradise, as buttered noodles and grilled cheese both grace the menu; there’s grilled salmon and a turkey/bacon/Havarti sandwich for more adventurous little eaters. Don’t miss that milk flight!
