Island Soul - Seattle

So. Delicious. My friend and I split the fish & shrimp vatapa, while I had a side of plantains and they had a side of hush puppies. Everything tasted wonderful. The fish, especially, was cooked perfectly -- it melted in my mouth. We also enjoyed two fruity cocktails because, well, it's a rum bar. The place packed on a Thursday evening, and we were lucky that we didn't have to wait long for a table in this small restaurant. Despite how busy it was, our server was a delight. She seemed to know exactly when to check on us and when to let us eat without interruption. There were so many gluten-free things on the menu that I want to try; I will definitely go back when I'm next in Columbia City!

Food was amazing! Lots of gluten free options. Great service as well!
