According to Tasting Table, the restaurant serves "pub-style" Pacific Northwest cuisine such as duck pastrami, meatloaf, ricotta gnocchi, and truffle mashed potatoes.[9] The menu has included risotto, wings,[10] bruschetta,[6] steak frites, and the Floozy Burger, which has bacon, caramelized onion, cheese, and French fries).[8] The brunch menu has included brisket Benedicts, scrambles with Dungeness crab, Bloody Marys, and mimosas.[7] The drink menu has included the Spritz into Spring, which is a variation of a "classic" wine spritzer with Chareau, vodka, and vermouth.[11] Happy hour is popular;[8] the special menu has included pastas, burgers, fries, and discounted drinks.[12]

History

Hallie Kuperman opened Tin Table in 2009, across from Century Ballroom, which she also opened in 1997.[13][14][15] Frank Wielgosiek was a chef, as of 2012–2022.[16][17] Michael Seidel joined as a pastry chef in 2012, which also allowed him to be the cakemaker for Century Ballroom.[16] Donna Looney and Dan Wunderlich have also been chefs at Tin Table.[18][19]

Like many restaurants, Tin Table closed was forced to close temporarily upon the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic. The restaurant re-opened with an updated menu in May 2020, and used a pulley system deliver food orders for pickup while maintaining social distance.[6][7][20] Tin Table also used Century Ballroom as a dining area compliant with distancing requirements.[21][22] For Thanksgiving in 2020, a take-out menu included herb roasted turkey, buttermilk rolls, winter squash, and yams.[23] In December, the business and Century Ballroom launched a GoFundMe campaign to stay afloat.[24] Tin Table began hosting free monthly lunch meetups for LGBTQ seniors in 2021, as part of the DineTogether program.[17]

Novelist Kevin O'Brien has referenced Tin Table in his books Terrified (2011) and The Night She Disappeared (2021); in the latter, the restaurant is described as a "chic, semi-bohemian eatery in Seattle's trendy Pike/Pine neighborhood".[25][26]

Reception

In 2009, Seattle Metropolitan's Kathryn Robinson said she and her dining partner "were well-served by all manner of kindly hipsters, from the genuinely welcoming spiky-haired greeter at the door to the long-haired lovely who refilled our water glasses with nothin' but love".[27] Seattle Magazine called Tin Table "sleek" and "sexy" in 2011.[28] Julien Perry included the restaurants in Eater Seattle's 2021 list of the city's 23 best late night dining options, based on reader feedback.[29]
