Seasmith — Restaurant in Seattle

This shop reminds me of a lot of trendy shops in Seattle; catches the eye but leaves something to be desired. The layout and design is wonderful with a modern Scandinavian design and has lots of seating, and I can't forget to mention the fantastic location with it being right along Broadway in Cap Hill. I love the fact they use and sell Olympia coffee and have a wide variety of baked goods, but unfortunately the food and drinks got me a bit bummed. We ordered a matcha latte and espresso tonic to drink, the matcha was not strong/ very milky and the espresso tonic could've used more syrup or less tonic.

The bad: food and drink are just not that good for the price they demand. Sandwich portions are incredibly tiny with barely any meat on them. I get they're not a full blown lunch spot, but they have full blown lunch prices. Two sandwiches and drinks are basically 50 bucks. And the portion sizes and taste are not worth the price. The tea/coffee is adequate, but there's way better options not far from...
