| Ponti distinguishes itself from other Seattle restaurants with its fish selections and beautiful patios. During summer, diners may watch boats and barges pass beneath the Fremont drawbridge from outdoor tables overlooking the ship canal. Inside, there's a stylish, informal café offering happy hour drinks and a less expensive bar menu. For example, the three-course dinner menu for $20 features smaller portions of several dishes from the regular dinner menu, or you can opt for nibbles such as pommes frites dusted with sweet fennel salt and served with garlic aïoli. The more formal dining room’s menu includes appetizers such as grilled marinated Monterey calamari. Seafood highlights range from fragrant Thai curry penne made with generous chunks of Dungeness crab meat to grilled diver scallops tucked under a fresh basil chiffonade. Bouillabaisse fans will enjoy a fragrant broth kissed with saffron and a splash of Pernod, and brimming with tiger prawns, Manila clams, Penn Cove mussels and scallops. For a sweet ending, choose the lemon tart or the trio of custards featuring chocolate pot de crème, espresso crème brûlée and white chocolate crème caramel. An extensive wine list offers a good selection of Northwest wines at a range of price points. Service is friendly and professional. |
