Fine dining restaurant · Uptown
"I found it to be one of Chicago’s most exciting fine dining destinations, a Michelin-starred Latin standout where Chef Norman Fenton balances deep respect for Latin American tradition with a drive to innovate. The seasonal tasting menu is a memorable splurge worth the price (starting at $200 per person), and standout courses include a ravioli filled with huitlacoche and bathed in corn foam, finished with fried corn silk, freeze-dried corn, popcorn, and cornflower over a truffle butter sauce; a playful michelada course that dresses an oyster with Clamato pearls and Modelo foam to instantly evoke the cocktail; and chicharrón dusted with barbecue spices served with a bowl of foamy esquites sauce for dipping. I recommend snagging a counter seat to watch Fenton and his team in action; his conversations with guests and an upbeat Latin soundtrack give the meal the feel of a lively dinner party. Insider tip: at 10 p.m. the restaurant shifts to a taco omakase—eight courses for $125 that highlight the in-house masa program and include alcoholic beverages—offering a more accessible way to experience the place." - Jeffy Mai
Bar · Ballard

Irish pub · Lower Queen Anne
"An Irish bar recognizable by its distinctive red-and-green building on Mercer Street, this 35-year mainstay has closed, with a note on the door reading, “We have weathered through many changes over the years. It has become increasingly harder for a small business to survive, let alone thrive.” New owners are expected to take over the space and may keep the name." - Harry Cheadle
Temporarily Closed
"A brunch-focused cafe in White Center, this spot has closed, with the owners bidding farewell to the space and relocating their brunch menu to Pimienta Bistro in Federal Way." - Harry Cheadle

"A slice emporium on the Ave that has closed permanently, though the pizzeria continues to operate a location in West Seattle." - Harry Cheadle
Cambodian restaurant · Burien
"A Khmer spot in the U District that closed after three years; owner Bon Long said business had been slow despite being one of the few Khmer restaurants in Seattle." - Harry Cheadle
Bar · Wedgwood
"An incredibly long-running roadhouse on Lake City Way that is closing for good as owner-bartender John Spaccarotelli retires at age 94." - Harry Cheadle
