We are Texans born and raised and was curious about the Mexican Food here in Seattle… we walked over to Cactus and we’re not disappointed! The service was stellar from the start, we were immediately greeted by the manager and walked to our table. We never had a moment of waiting and enjoyed the smiles all around! The vibe was nice and the food was good (I have a gluten and dairy allergy and they were accommodating). Must try (good margs)!

Portage Bay Cafe in South Lake Union is a gem for breakfast and brunch lovers! The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, with a trendy yet casual vibe. Their commitment to organic and locally sourced ingredients truly shines through in every dish. The Bananas Foster French Toast and berry toppings bar are absolute must-tries—fresh, delicious, and incredibly satisfying. The portions are generous, and the service is consistently friendly and efficient. Whether you’re dining solo or with family, this spot caters to everyone, including vegan and gluten-free options. Outdoor seating is pet-friendly, making it a great choice for dog owners. Yes, there’s often a wait, but the food is worth it! Highly recommend making a reservation if you’re visiting on weekends. A fantastic place to start your day in Seattle! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Great seats and atmosphere. Server was attentive but did not overly linger. Food was ok. Chowder is star would probably just stick with that next time. Lots of gluten free potions including gluten free desserts.

Amazing vegan Thai food!!! Wow.. everything I've ever ordered her is beautifully presented and high vibrational. I love that there are zero animal products here, so there is no chance of contanimation!!! If you are vegan, great place to dine. If you are gluten free, great place to dine. The fabulous humans that work here are also amazing and high vibrational beings!!! This is a restaurant that should be a must on every level for foodies and people just wanting a lovely food experience!!

Absolutely fantastic. Very gluten friendly, lots of gluten free options and gf pita is even available and the flavors don't suffer for it. Wonderfully accommodating staff. If you get the grill for 2-3 with friends you will have plenty of food and probably still take some home. Fantastically filling. Most Seattle restaurants aren't worth the prices they charge, but this was the first one I've been to in a minute that was really worth paying for both the food and experience. Will be back.
