    Chicken Sandwich
    Courtnay B.

    Food was really good. Busy spot with only one server so had to wait a bit to order. Our server was really nice though and food came out quickly. Had the burger, margherita pizza and fried chicken sandwich.

    For airport food this is as good as you can ask for! Really strong service from the bartender and a really delicious burger with caramelized onion and a tasty mayo spread. Really good fries as well. This is all I'm asking for! On the quieter side of the airport too which is a plus.

    Pepperoni flatbread, Wings tossed in lemon pepper sauce and an Old American burger.

    I ordered a flatbread Marguerite pizza and received a French bread pizza. Not quite the same thing and not very good.

    Horrible food. Avoid this place. Eat anywhere else in the airport. Terrible pizza and sandwiches.

After…read morescouring the plethora of restaurant options at Sea-Tac, we decided to check out Village Pub. After seating ourselves and being greeted by a server (unfortunately I did not capture her name), we both opted for the fish and chips. I can't recollect a time when I had a bad experience with a fish and chips order, so I was optimistic that we were in for a treat. Less than 15 minutes later, two large plates consisting of four fish planks and a healthy serving of fries were being delivered to our table. Biting into the fries I thought, "these are hot, but taste like nothing." To obtain some form of flavor, I had to douse them in ketchup. Hoping that the same did not apply to the fish, I took a bite of one of the planks...no flavor as well. To give it some form of flavor, I had to saturate it in vinegar and use a healthy serving of tarter sauce. I understand that some restaurants are hesitant to pre-season food due to various preferences and allergies. However, I have never consumed food that tasted like what I would imagine the flavor of paper would be. The customer service was good...but if this was an indication of how their other meals taste, I can't honestly say that I could make a return visit.

Take that for what it is, which is not always a true reflection of what you may experience here. I liked the mainly contactless ordering and our server was prompt with waters then lemonade.

We were near the bar which had one loud talker but he eventually left and noise settled down. Worth a visit for a snack! We had chicken strips and fries and I saw nachos go by that looked yummy too!

Hot, fresh and served in a timely manner, as it should be in a sit down restaurant in an airport. Even so, I had time to linger before my flight so I was able to enjoy the cool inviting interior for some time. It's also not overly crowded and pretty quiet considering it's next to the gates. I just had simple bacon and scrambled eggs, not expecting much from this place. It is in an airport after all. But the eggs were fresh, and cooked to perfection. The bacon was outstanding and the portion size generous. I will be flying out of Seattle quite a bit in the future, and will remember this place for when I have some time to kill. Hopefully my flights will continue to depart from this terminal.

Before my flight, I decided to stop at Salty's for breakfast. I'm a sucker for crab, but I wasn't especially hungry, so I ordered a cup of the chowder with crab. It turned out to be one of the best cups of chowder I've ever had--rich, flavorful, and loaded with crab. I sat at the bar, where Joyce took great care of me. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made an otherwise difficult day a little easier. Great service can make a real difference, and she absolutely delivered. Salty's isn't the cheapest dining option at SEA, but between the quality of the food, the relaxed atmosphere, and the outstanding service, I think it's well worth it. If you're looking for a great meal before your flight, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try.

Rich, loaded with clams, easily the best thing on the table. Fries were also solid. The halibut fish & chips ($46 for three pieces) was the letdown. The fish was over-fried to the point that it fell apart as I ate it -- disappointing for a fish of that quality at that price. Halibut should hold together in firm, flaky pieces; this didn't. But the real issue was the service. What made it impossible to write off as a busy day was that my server was attentive to the table right next to me -- she asked the gentleman beside me how his meal was and refilled his water, while mine sat clearly empty and I was never checked on once. No introduction, no recommendations, no plates cleared. When I asked for something as simple as pepper, I got attitude, like I was putting her out. I typically tip 25%. I left 15% and honestly felt that was generous for what I received. At these prices, the food needs to be executed properly and the service needs to match. The chowder alone isn't enough to carry a $60+ meal. Would I come back? Maybe for a cup of chowder at the bar. Not for the full experience.

    Had the best complementary buffet in an airport lounge in my life…read more My wife, her mom, and I were traveling back home to LAX from Seattle on a Wednesday. Due to price differences, I ended up booking the direct flight for 17:30 for savings. Since we needed to check out of our Mercer Island airbnb by 11, we ended up staying around the airport for a while. It is stated that Centurion Lounge allows access 3 hours before your scheduled departure. At this location, this is easily enforced by not letting one join their mandatory virtual queue until the time is within that timeframe. So we joined the queue at exactly 2:30, and got a text invitation with QR code 15 minutes later. Check-in was the same, requiring the actual CC that grants entry, along with ID and boarding pass. It's a pretty big lounge and it wasn't packed like we saw from previous visits, so then appreciated the timed entry that we had just gone through. We were able to find seating near the bar area. The first thing I noticed was the busy cold seafood bar, situated near the coffee bar. It looked good, but didn't realize how good until I started to partake. There were two chefs manning the bar...one constantly shucking oysters and the other making sure the shrimp and scallops were maintained, joining in the shucking when he could. It was called the 'Puget Sound Raw Bar', and consisted of freshly shucked Kumamoto and Takara Oysters on the half shell, scallop Ceviche on the half shell, salmon crudo, poached prawns, two different types of poke, and various seafood salads. I was really impressed with the oysters...instead of the typical Pacific oysters, this was Kumamoto which is so much sweeter, but so much smaller. Have never had more than half dozen at a time of those, and I had way more than that this time (my wife and her mom don't like cold seafood, let alone raw, so felt I had to make up for that). I did have my fill of giant chilled shrimp, though. And the scallop ceviche was absolutely delicious. The salmon poke used wild salmon caught in the area...even in poke, it was obvious that it was king salmon and the quality just shined. All of this was quality that would fit into a high priced seafood tower at a high-end steakhouse. We had time, so ended up trying different types of their cocktail drinks from the bar as well. They allow you to only pick up one drink per person at a time, so had to request my wife to go up to directly pick up hers. Later learned that this buffet is only offered once or twice a month, and only for 3-4 hours. Looking back, I felt like I hit the lottery by being offered this for no additional cost at the exact time of our visit. Will take these small wins, whenever I can.

In the app, tap the Membership tab at the bottom, select Airport Lounges, find the Seattle Sea-Tac Centurion Lounge, and then tap Join Waitlist. During my visit, the wait to get in was longer than expected (45 minutes) and using the waitlist can save you a considerable amount of time. After seeing the lounge in person, it was easy to understand why there is often a wait. The space is beautiful, but it's much smaller than I anticipated and can get very crowded during peak travel times. Another thing to know is that the lounge isn't the easiest place to find if it's your first visit. It's tucked away near Koi Sushi in the middle of the main concourse food court area, so keep an eye out for the signs as you make your way through the terminal. Once inside, I could see why so many travelers want access. The lounge is modern, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were outstanding throughout my visit. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The vanilla latte was excellent and easily one of the better coffees I've had in an airport lounge. Service at the coffee bar and throughout the lounge was top-notch. The food was good, although the selection felt more limited than I expected. There was a soup station, salad options, appetizers, and several hot entrées. Everything I tried was fresh and flavorful. The green smoothies were fantastic, and the made-in-house ice cream was a standout and worth saving room for. I typically favor going to the Delta Sky Clubs when flying through Seattle, so it was nice to finally check out the Centurion Lounge. My husband specifically wanted to try it on this trip, and I'm glad we did because it was a worthwhile experience. Overall, I think the Centurion Lounge is definitely a great option if you have access. However, if you also have access to the two Delta Sky Clubs at Sea-Tac, I would personally choose those instead. The Sky Clubs offer a much more spacious experience, significantly more seating, and what feels like three times the number of food options. I've also never had to wait to get into a Sky Club in Seattle, whereas the wait for the Centurion Lounge was substantial. That said, I still enjoyed my visit. The lounge is attractive, the service is excellent, the coffee is great, and it's a comfortable place to relax before a flight. If lounge access comes with one of your cards, it's absolutely worth visiting. I'm just not sure I would pay $50 separately for access given the crowds and limited space. If you're looking for a comfortable place to recharge, grab a quality coffee, enjoy a meal, and escape the terminal for a bit, the Centurion Lounge delivers. Just set your expectations regarding the size and wait times. While my personal preference remains the Delta Sky Clubs, I can absolutely see why Centurion Lounge fans enjoy this space, especially for the service, coffee, and overall atmosphere.
