Restaurants near McCaw Hall?

[SeAAttle]

Any suggestions for restaurants that are within reasonable walking distance of McCaw Hall? We prefer to park, walk to a restaurant and then to the Hall.

Thanks

It sounds like Crow or one of the others on the same block might fit the bill.

I've only been to the one in Bellevue, but I looove Meditteranean Kitchen and there is one in Queen Anne on 3rd and Roy that is very close to McCaw Hall. The entrees are wonderfully spiced. However, since you are going to an event after dinner you would have to not be afraid of smelling like garlic afterwards :\.

I like 10 Mercer. Good food, good service, nice wine selection.

The address is also 10 Mercer, across from TS McHughs.

Kaspar's is about five blocks from McCaw. C'mon, the walk will do you good!

Also, I'd very much prefer my fellow opera lovers smell like garlic than like the lady who used to sit next to me, who insists on dousing herself with what must be an entire bottle of perfume! We changed our seats this season to get away from her, but it's all-too-common.

Are you going to see Lohengrin? Oh, boy, are you in for a treat! You'll want to take the swan home with you!

I haven't been there in a while, but enjoyed the food (nice antipasti) at Nonna Maria (530 First Ave N).

Yes, we saw Lohengrin! First time at McCaw Hall.

Based on another recommendation, we tried Perche No. The food was fine, not great, but fine. The owners work very hard at customer service and obviously have a loyal following. Also, 100% non-smoking, a very big plus for us.

Our last time at Kaspars was quite disappointing so it is off our list. Will try some of the others suggested here for our next opera event.
