This year's spring Seattle Restaurant Week, originally scheduled to start March 29, was one of the first events to be canceled due to COVID-19. For the fall edition, though, it's Past Event Like List back and bigger than ever Past Event Like List : To give the restaurant industry a much-needed boost, Seattle Restaurant Week is featuring more dining options and is extending the event to last an entire month (Oct 25–Nov 21). Like usual, restaurants will create a variety of special meal offerings as $20 lunches and/or $35 dinners, but this time, those will take the form of make-at-home meal kits, food and cocktail takeout packages, in-house three-course meals, and more. It's a great opportunity to both support local restaurants and break out of your Postmates rut, as well as to try places that might normally be out of your price range. SRW will also be partnering with Plate of Nations Past Event Like List this time around, an event run by the MLK Business Association to highlight southeast Seattle businesses. So far, there are nearly 150 restaurants participating, but if you're overwhelmed by the long list, don't worry: We've rounded up our suggestions below, including great choices for takeout and delivery, indoor dining, and outdoor dining, as well as restaurants that have received raves from Stranger staffers and contributors. For more inspiration, check out EverOut's complete Seattle food and drink guide.

TAKEOUT & DELIVERY

These restaurants are available for takeout and/or delivery and would make for a great at-home dining experience.

Cafe Munir Like List
Naomi Tomky once wrote, "Tucked away in a residential corner of Ballard, this Lebanese restaurant makes diners rethink ordinary ingredients. Hummus takes a star turn with the addition of lamb sizzled in butter, pears grab attention when mixed with tahini, pomegranate, and parsley, and simply grilled chicken skewers are the signature dish (though partial credit goes to the debaucherously garlicky sauce that comes with it). The lengthy menu of mezzes—small plates—highlights local, in-season vegetables with Middle Eastern flavors like baby onions preserved in Lebanese wine and honey with fresh cheese, and winter greens with Aleppo chili. And almost everything goes well with the traditional Lebanese spirit, arak, available plentifully here."

This pizzeria feels like it was beamed via satellite from Portlandia—it's more of a pizza gathering space than a restaurant, with two attractively repurposed shipping containers serving as the buildings, nearly all outdoor seating, and a garden and live chickens providing some of the ingredients.

IL Bistro Like List
At Il Bistro, hidden under Pike Place Market, the old-fashioned-ness is marvelous—the ceilings are low, the arches are original, the bar is marble, and the roses are red. The bar at Il Bistro is famous, and rightfully so; it’s a bartenders’ bar—witness the 30-plus kinds of Scotch lined up tantalizingly all along it. The lighting at the bar is perfect—not too bright, not too dim, bathing everyone in a 62-percent-more-attractive pinky-gold.

Lecosho Like List
Charles Mudede once wrote, "More recently, I stopped by Lecosho on my birthday. I wanted to eat there all by myself. That is how much I dig this place. I thought that the best way to commemorate the day I was born was not with other people talking about this and that but in the silence of consuming this restaurant's rich foods and wines."

Maximilien Like List
A few steps past the fish-throwing insanity at Pike Place Market, you’re greeted in French in a dim, quiet room, its walls covered in antique mirrors, its view of beautiful Puget Sound. Upstairs is a snug, shiplike garret of a bar, all dark wood; the terrace is lovely, too.
Downtown
Onsite dining, takeout

Meekong Bar Like List

Omega Ouzeri Like List
Rich Smith once wrote, "I had some laudable toast points at Omega a few months ago. Besides that, this bright, casual spot on Capitol Hill offers up refreshing, semi-pricey Greek fare. The servers will non-pretentiously offer useful information about anise-spiked clear spirits that anchor their bar program, and the octopus is truly great. Go there with a friend and leave half-loopy in an ouzo cloud."

Toulouse Petit
Leilani Polk once wrote, "Seattle's other noteworthy Cajun-Creole restaurant has a more extensive menu than what you find at French Quarter Kitchen, minus the absinthe, and plenty of what you find on it is delicious (try the jambalaya). But their breakfast and brunch is where it's at: pork cheeks confit hash (which was featured on the Food Network show The Best Thing I Ever Ate), the Bayou Fisherman's Breakfast (shrimp, fish, crawfish, and tasso, served in a mini-skillet with grits and a fried egg on top), and Cajun meatloaf and eggs are just a few of the savory options. After dark is also a fine time to visit—the candles placed on the walls all around the room are lit, filling the place with a dreamy, flickering orange glow." Alas, breakfast and brunch won't be available for Restaurant Week, but Toulouse Petit will be offering a two-course lunch menu for $20, with options like French onion soup, fried chicken with homemade andouille gumbo, authentic po' boy sandwiches, and Creole prawn and tasso linguine, as well as a $35 three-course dinner menu, with dishes like beet salad, pan-seared rockfish, jambalaya, and buttermilk beignets. There's also a selection of bottles of wine priced under $50.
