Seattle | Romantic Korean Fusion Date Spot at Paju 🇰🇷✨

This relocated gem in SLU, inside Amazon’s Blackfoot building, is now a hotspot for tech workers’ post-work dates! Note: Their menu rotates—sadly missed the truffle bulgogi this time. 😢 Wait Time ⏳ We reserved ahead with a $30/person deposit. Though booked solid online, the restaurant was surprisingly empty. Flavors 🍴 🌮 Bugak (P1) $29 Visually stunning ✨ Must-order! Crispy Fried Seaweed + sweet potato chips = crunch heaven. Braised oxtail (tender like K-BBQ) + sweet mushrooms + spicy cucumber kimchi = FLAVOR BOMB. 🔥 🐙 Octopus (P1) $24 Crispy outside, tender inside 🐙 + popping fish roe = texture magic! Tangy cream sauce = refreshing + addictive. 😋 🦐 Seafood Jeon (P2) $27 Korean-Japanese fusion: savory pancake base + dancing bonito flakes 🍥. Sweet-salty drizzle = umami perfection. 🦑 Paju Fried Rice (P3) $24 Sweet-salty (barely any kimchi tang) + subtle bacon. 🥓 Sticky rice = 👌, but heavy flavor—skip if not a fan. 🍰 Basque Cheesecake (P4) $13 Huge portion 🧀, too sweet for my taste. Odd pairing: spicy-sweet jam = confusing clash. 🤔 Parking 🅿️ No validation, but park at Amazon’s Nessie building across the street—only $2 after 5 PM/weekends! (We got free under 2 hrs. 🎉) #SeattleWeekend #SeattleDaily #SeattleEats #SeattleDateNight #KoreanFusion #FoodieAdventures #SeattleFoodScene #DateSpotGoals
