Description

[edit | edit source]

Seattle Fish Guys is a "gleaming, upscale" fish market and restaurant in Seattle's Central District, according to The Seattle Times.[1] The business operates in the "nondescript" Verse Seattle building at the intersection of 23rd and Jackson.[2][3] It has sold bivalves (including mussels),[4] clam chowder,[5] crab and shrimp cocktails, fish, poke, and smoked lox. Ingredients in bowls include kimchi, macaroni salad, octopus, brown or white rice, salmon, seaweed salad, and tuna.[6] The crab rolls (or Dungeness crab "subs")[7] have Japanese mayonnaise, Sriracha, and scallions on a toasted bun.[8] The restaurant's aioli has garlic.[9]

Seattle Fish Guys also stocks flowers and spice rubs,[10] and has created take-home meal kits for special occasions; one for Lunar New Year included steamed black cod with black bean sauce and mochi donuts.[11]

History

[edit | edit source]

Co-owners Desiree Chinn and Sal Panelo opened Seattle Fish Guys in 2016.[3][12][13] The restaurant's grand opening celebration was held on September 4,[14][15] and featured free samples and a mussel eating contest.[16]

Reception

[edit | edit source]

The magazine Seattle Metropolitan says of Seattle Fish Guys: "One of the Central District's favorite destinations for a convivial lunch is also an after-work godsend for picking up dinner."[2] Aimee Rizzo of The Infatuation said of the poke in 2020, "Between the soy-marinated tuna, spicy salmon, furikake rice, and smoky macaroni salad, this is a bowl that's better than the sum of its parts—even though each part is excellent."[17] She and Kayla Sager-Riley included Seattle Fish Guys in a 2023 overview of the city's best poke[18] and a 2024 overview of the city's best seafood.[19] In 2023, the South Seattle Emerald said the shop was among chef J. Kenji López-Alt's favorite South End eateries.[20]

Megan Hill included Seattle Fish Guys in Eater Seattle's 2022 overview of fifteen "great places" to eat in the Central District.[5] Noms Magazine ranked the business eighth in a 2023 list of Seattle's thirteen best seafood restaurants, and recommended the crab sub, the idako (marinated baby octopus), and the poke bowl.[21] Allecia Vermillion included the restaurant in Seattle Metropolitan's 2024 overview of the city's best seafood.[22]
