Wedgwood Broiler

Locally known as "the Wedge," this Seattle staple pairs its throwback dining room with a heated patio and an unpretentious comfort-food menu. Beyond the steaks, the kitchen turns out daily specials and family fare—including idiosyncratic touches like Cheez-Its on the salad and home-style cooking at approachable prices. At the cocktail lounge, generous hand-poured drinks arrive alongside friendly, spirited service that keeps the room grounded and lively.
