One of our favorite restaurants is Cactus! A popular Mexican restaurant located right in the heart of Kirkland, and just a short walk from the Kirkland waterfront. If you're looking to go on a weekend night, be ready to wait 20 minutes or so for a table, but it's worth it!

It's a 20-25 minute drive from our home, but Seattle's premiere restaurant is well worth the visit! You'll need to make a reservation at least a month in advance to get a table, and can look at spending upwards of $100 per person for a few courses and drinks, but it is well and truly worth it for fine dining cuisine! This restaurant will blow you away, and remains our No. 1 restaurant!

Visiting Pike Place Market? This is the place to eat! You can't go wrong with a meal at Lowell's. Sure at busy times, the line will wrap around outside the restaurant, and you might have to wait 15 minutes to find a table once you've ordered your food. But there's a reason for it. Not only is the location of this place great, but the views are fabulous, and the food is outstanding! Our recommendation? Try the fish and chips!
