The 21 Most Fun Dinner Spots In Seattle

"Haidilao is an experience. At this popular hot pot chain in Bellevue, they’ll escort you to a booth like you’ve got a FastPass, dance tableside while hand-pulling noodles, and have servers sing “happy birthday” while fist-pumping with a neon sign. And don’t even get us started on all the free stuff (toys, pints of ice cream, lotion, manicures). All the bells and whistles are nice, but the hot pot is truly great too—their tom yum broth pairs nicely with delicate beef tongue. Best to come here with a big group, rock an apron, and clink soju as you dunk those meats." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
