Such a unique dining experience! I enjoyed every course as well as the stories that were shared. The food was unlike anything I’ve had before, in a good way. I highly recommend Archipelago if you are wanting to try something different and don’t mind splurging.

We had a wonderful tasting experience here last evening. I would highly recommend it for the person with an open palette and love of locally sourced food, family stories and history. The chef and staff weave family history, Philippine food history, and...Read More

Authentic in every way. Having dined at Noma, Gaggan and many other Michelin 3-star restaurants, I wish Archipelago could get its stars. What makes visiting Archipelago special is the small atomosphere. They have bar seating for up to 8 people. Then a table...Read More

Archipelago did an amazing job for us to experience what a thoughtful and intentional dining experience should and could be. First off it is a five star price but it came with five star food, service and experience. My husband has a long list of dietary requirements,...Read More

Intimate and delicious. Too notch food and service. To snag a reservation, book with the Chase Sapphire Card if you have it, or start refreshing Tock a couple of mins before reservations are due to open, with your date filled in in the url.

This is not a regular restaurant. They do Philipino tasting menus and only take online reservations. They open on certain days of the week and serve only two dinner seatings on those nights. The food is interesting and tasty. However, the portion...Read More

Excellent food, great stories, perfectly sized portions. Not a lot of diversity in the guests dining but your mileage may vary. If you can get a reservation here definitely do it. Very cozy and comfortable seating alongside a very attentive staff that makes the space...Read More

Easily one of if not the best tasting menus in the greater Seattle area. Not only was the food phenomenal (as expected) but the overarching narrative and course design really put this dining experience over the top. Chef Aaron and team really have something special...Read More
