"Matt’s is the grand champion of sit-down lunches in all of Seattle, let alone downtown. This semi-upscale spot is on the third floor of a Pike Place building, so you can eat with a view of the market. Pull up to the bar, start with a glass of wine, get the same (amazing) crispy catfish sandwich that’s been on the menu for over 20 years, and finish with the “candy bar square” that tastes like a deconstructed Snickers bar—only so much better. This place has the Feel Good Factor™, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself offering some homemade chips and hot bacon dip to the person next to you at the bar." - aimee rizzo
