seattle, washington
we were mules walking up Olive Way Rd. with all of our travel bags. THE SAINT was a sight for sore eyes with a beautiful turquoise stucco shell. the building was on a corner and brightened up the whole street. i immediately knew it would be a favorite.
we decided to hit up THE SAINT for happy hour and i, per usual, was overwhelmed with goodness as this place fulfilled all my dining expectations. the walls were covered with black and white prints of matadors and everything else accented turquoise and white. tequila is their specialty,
ON THE TABLE:
HERMANO: tequila, lemon and lime.
MAÑANA: sauza silver tequila with elderflower, blue curacao and sour mix made from scratch
CUCUMBER COCKTAIL: cucumber and lemon, gin and cassis, with a dash of housemade agave syrup
NACHOS: beans, queso fresco, jalepeno, pico de gallo, and housemade guacamole.
the atmosphere was so laid back with a lower and upper dining level (playing off the hills of seattle), dried roses, georgia o’keeffe animal bones, wooden bars, tables of friends, and lots of tequila.
this was a phenomenal place and if i lived in seattle permanently, it would definitely be on my list of most frequented restaurants. if you go to seattle, this is a MUST!
love the blog! i aspire to be a foodie
