Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Shoreline

I can’t find a single thing to talk about that isn’t top notch about Russell’s. This is our “go-to” place for special occasions, this time my wife’s birthday with our son, his wife, and two munchkins aged 9 and 11. Food was superb, with our entrees including a big ribeye, a filet mignon, duck rivals, and chicken. For the young ones, they made a simple Alfredo over noodles. Everything was as good as it can be. The food was great, drinks were well crafted, and service was friendly, attentive, and professional. They didn’t hover, but were always there. Russell’s will continue to be our first choice for special occasions.

Dinner was absolutely fantastic! We started with the meatball plate then had the bolognese and Sunday gravy for dinner. We heard the portions were generous but holy cannoli they are HUGE! The bolognese was easily the largest portion I've ever had at an Italian restaurant and triple the size of Pink Doors portion. The Sunday gravy was not just in a bowl, this was the size of a punch bowl. My husband couldn't even finish half of it. Considering the quality of the food with the portion size and the price point our dinner was phenomenal. We have found our new fav Italian restaurant and are truly looking forward to visiting again.

We enjoyed our Christmas Eve dinner at Anthony's. Our food was delicious and the service was outstanding! The fish and chips were cooked to perfection and the steak with crab was scrumptious.

I wanted a quality high-end dining experience and I got it. Nell’s has been around for a very long time. The restaurant is intimate without being cramped. Conversation is easy because it’s not noisy. We had quality service and the food is very good. I gave Nell’s 4 stars for value but that might be more indicative of Seattle in general than Nell’s. Compared to dining most anywhere in the world, Seattle is expensive and Nell’s seemed pricey for the portions served. But overall it’s a satisfying experience.

This was our first, but definitely not last time at Como! Food, especially the porcini risotto, and drinks were fantastic. Our waiter, Georgie, was affable, funny, knowledgeable and a general pleasure who went above and beyond. We strongly recommend Como to anyone looking for fine Italian - easily one of our new favorite places on the Eastside!
