About
Just this past May, Chef Grayson Corrales opened her First Hill eatery on the site of the dearly departed Café Presse, and Seattle Met promptly named it 2022’s “Best Restaurant of the Year.” Infatuation followed suit, naming it to its 2022 Lists of “Best New Restaurants in Seattle” and “Most Exciting Restaurant Openings in America.” This unique restaurant (now a 2024 member of CN Traveler's "Best in Seattle" List) is a heartfelt homage to Chef Corrales’ roots in Galicia, Spain, that autonomous region northwest of the Iberian Peninsula and just atop Portugal. Coming right off a 3-month internship in Spain at the 2-Michelin-Starred restaurant Culler de Pau, Chef Corrales is turning out such dishes as ham and mushroom croquetas, paella tahdig (crisp paella rice served with chorizo spiced shrimp and triple garlic aioli), empanadas de morcilla (blood sausage tart, squash, piquillo peppers), and, of course, octopus. Leave room for the churros or the Manchego cheesecake as well! “A place where everything succeeds,” raves Seattle Met. No wonder Chef Corrales is now a 2024 James Beard "Best Chef: NW & Pacific" Semi-Finalist!
