Once a bakery and a luncheonette, the Athenian is now known for its delicious seafood. The sign over the front door is the original one. So when you eat here, you are not only getting amazing food, but you are dining somewhere with deep roots in Seattle.

With access to fresh seafood from the Pacific Ocean, the seafood bowl here is fantastic. This dish has mussels, prawns, clams, squid, salmon and cod, which are served on top of herb rice in a savory fish broth. Yummy!
