Matt's in the Market
94 Pike St

tel.: 206/467-7909
Cuisine: American Regional
Price Category: Moderate

Quite possibly the smallest gourmet restaurant in Seattle, Matt's is a tiny cubbyhole of a place in the Corner Market Building, directly across the street from the market information booth at First and Pike. The restaurant has only a handful of tables and a few stools at the counter, and the kitchen takes up almost half the restaurant, giving the cooks little more than the space of a walk-in closet in which to work their culinary magic. The menu changes regularly, with an emphasis on fresh ingredients from the market stalls only steps away, and there's a good selection of reasonably priced wines. The menu pulls in whatever influences and styles happen to appeal to the chef at that moment, perhaps Moroccan, perhaps Southern. This is a real Pike Place Market experience. If you spot anything with smoked catfish on the menu, try it.

Main courses $8-$10 at lunch, $16-$18 at dinner.Open: Mon 11:30am-2:30pm; Tues-Sat 11:30am-2:30pm and 5:30-9:30pm.Dinner reservations accepted for first seating and highly recommended.Credit Cards: MC, V.
