Restaurants we recommend in the

Belltown Area of Seattle

Belltown is at the north end of the downtown area between downtown and Seattle Center where the Space Needle is located. Traveling north from downtown Seattle you can tell when you enter Belltown, the streets takes a 30° turn to the left. In the not-to-distant past Belltown left something to be desired. Today with upscale condos and apartments being built in the area the restaurants and night life have followed.
