- EEvaSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe thoroughly enjoyed our date night at Camp West. The ambiance is clean and cozy. The camping theme permeates the place, which added to the fun of drinking and dining here. The staff were exceptionally kind and accommodating, always attending to us with a smile. The food was great and decently priced. My favorite were the drinks! I especially enjoyed the “Glamping Enthusiast” and the Lavender Margarita! We loved our experience at Camp West, the relaxing and fun atmosphere, the pleasant staff, and the delicious (and affordable) food and drink! We will be returning soon for another date night at this fun place!More infoCamp WestPrice: Moderate• American• West Seattle/Alki•4.7

- RRexWashington, D.C. Area •5 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 27, 2024Superb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.More infoThe Pink DoorPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Belltown / Pike Place Market•4.8
- BbridgetSeattle / Eastern Washington •4 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 24, 2024Salty's exceeded our expectations. We have lived in Seattle for over 20 years and never had dinner at Salty's. We didn't know whether or not to trust the reviews. We absolutely loved our dinner and evening. The staff all the way from the hostess to the kitchen staff to the servers were extremely welcoming, nice and professional. The atmosphere is really special with dim lights, beautiful holiday decorations and a stunning view of the Seattle Downtown. The food was also fantastic. Salty's has an old school, classy vibe which was exactly what we were looking for to enjoy a joint birthday and holiday family meal.More infoSalty's on Alki BeachPrice: Expensive• Seafood• West Seattle/Alki•4.8
