The end of the year is traditionally a time for reflection, so we’re taking stock of the year in food, including some of the most exciting additions to Seattle’s restaurant scene (including Karachi Cowboys, Cookie’s Country Chicken, and Tomo), soon-to-be-closed restaurants to visit one last time (we’ll miss you, Vif and Cafe Presse), and things to look forward to in 2022 (hello, H Mart and Otherworld Wine Bar). Read on to discover more culinary highlights. For more ideas, check out our food and drink guide.

BEST OPENINGS OF 2021

Big Max Burger Co.
The Queen Anne fine-dining restaurant Eden Hill‘s more casual, family-friendly spinoff Eden Hill Provisions rebranded as the fast food-centric Big Max Burger Co. in November. The spot, which features self-order kiosks and a Coke machine, highlights Eden Hill Provisions’ most popular item, the eponymous Big Max burger (named for chef/co-owner Maximillian Petty and featuring two beef patties, lettuce, bread and butter pickles, caramelized and chopped red onion, smoked cheddar, malt-maple ketchup, and “Max sauce” on a challah bun). Besides the namesake burger, the menu also includes the “Queen Animal” (a burger with smoked bacon, frizzled onions, avocado, and house barbecue sauce), deep-fried “caramel corn” Brussels sprouts, a veggie burger with pastrami-cured celery root, a “Hot Mama hen” buttermilk fried chicken sandwich, and a kid-friendly “Little Sammy Slider.”
