Fish and chips
Paulette C.

I wanted to get fish and chips so I made my way to this restaurant. For airport food, it turned out to be OK. As usual airport food is very pricey so it was worth a little splurge.

Menu (5/2/26)
Greg T.

No matter if your flight is on time or you're waiting for a delayed flight, Skillet delivers on both comfort and taste. Thankfully our trip thru the TSA lines went quicker than expected so we had some time to get a bite before our flight. Thankfully we came across Skillet near our gate and there was ample space to be seated quickly. The service was okay as they always seemed rushed but it might be a result of the environment being at an airport. However I felt that it didn't detract from the experience because we were seated at a table. If you have time I would recommend getting a table so that you don't get caught up in that rushed feeling at the bar seating. Table seating offered QR code ordering so you can keep at your pace if you don't want to wait for a server to help. The food was absolutely fantastic. I chose "The Scramble" and was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. The eggs and taters were done right and full of flavor. I only wish they had more hot sauce options for a place that serves eggs and burritos. Sriracha and Tobasco just doesn't cut it to be your only options in my opinion. My partner had the "Bacon Cheddar Breakfast Burrito" with an arugula salad. The burrito was a good but standard breakfast burrito but the salad was actually the star. I know others complain about the price but what you're getting here is more than a simple grab and go that you normally get at the airport. You won't get the standard sit down experience like at a normal restaurant so I feel like it can't be judged the same but I wasn't disappointed. If you're looking for a good meal while still being able to make your flight, I would recommend this place with the right expectations as the pace is quick but the food is still quality.

Early morning airport dining is usually a gamble, but Skillet makes it feel a little more intentional than your typical grab-and-go chaos. I stopped by around 8am before a flight, and the place was buzzing. Open seating with a full view of the tarmac and steady foot traffic made it prime people-watching territory. As a solo traveler, I actually loved that. There's something grounding about watching strangers rush to their gates while you sit there with coffee (well, water in my case) and your thoughts, realizing everyone's the main character in their own story. I ordered the Club Chub, and when it came out... I genuinely paused. The fried chicken was massive, like palm-of-my-hand massive. Slightly on the drier side, but still flavorful enough that I didn't leave a bite behind. Food came out fast too, which matters when you're watching boarding time creep closer. Service was efficient but stretched thin. It took a few minutes to get my order in, and I noticed a couple seated after me got their coffee first, while we all got water at the same time. Not a huge deal, just noticeable. One egg was missing from my plate, but when I mentioned it, my server brought it out right away and even added an extra, which I appreciated. At about $27, it's definitely airport pricing, but the portion size helps justify it. Pro tip: Come hungry and give yourself a little buffer time. This isn't a rushed meal, but it is a memorable one. Would I come back? Yeah. Next time, I might just pace myself... or bring a bigger appetite.

Blackened Salmon Salad & Bacon Jam Burger
Jay H.

Delicious! I don't know if I was hungry or the food was just that good but that salad was demolished within minutes of it being placed in front of me. You wait to get seated then order (& pay) from a QR code. Even with that, the food came out quickly and the servers still checked on us periodically. Prices at airport prices so this (plus a lemonade & tip) was $81.

Avacado Burrito & salad
Kristen B.

Breakfast & lunch options, along with a full bar. Food was prepared for ME, and greens were fresh. I enjoyed the avocado burrito-minus the fries.... Side of salad. Food was quick and service efficient & friendly. They were happy to take my order, but you can also use QR code.

Unfortunately The skillet at the airport does not resemble what I've had in Seattle. I ordered chilaquiles... it was chips and salsa. Hardly in salsa either. Chips were crunchy, no soft chips, definitely not simmered in sauce. Hardly any flavor at all. I feel like I paid for chips and salsa with an egg on top. Bloody Mary was basic... Service, I sat at the bar he was pretty busy but took 10 minutes just to place order and get water. Maybe just an off day I don't know.

When in SEA-TAC, get the coffee.
Tom V.

Not sure why this spot gets the low reviews, but our experience was pretty great. It wasn't the *best breakfast ever* but it was darn good when we needed it most (following a four-hour jaunt). You have to wait to be seated, but the wait is minimal. The serving staff busts their tails clearing tables, serving weary travelers, and enduring crabby airport types. From the time we were seated to food service was maybe 10-12 minutes and Jocelyn was so friendly and welcoming. Dishes came out well-prepared and the portion sizes are beyond ample. I recommend the granola, a mixed fruit version with Greek yogurt and fresh fruit slices. Sweet, lots of whole oats, and a very satisfying breakfast. My lovely wife opted for the 'Scramble', which was a mélange of scrambled eggs, kale, & bacon atop a slab of whole wheat toast. Not sure how Skillet came upon their fried breakfast potato 'recipe' but they are FIRE. Throw in a hot cuppa Cafe Vita coffee and you have yourself a great breakfast. Pricing is airport-style, so quit yer whinin' and pony up. Seating can get a bit cramped because pretty much everyone has their luggage about them. But solo travelers can always find room at the bar & sample from a strong beer menu, wine selection, & more. It's a good spot if you have the time and opportunity while in SeaTac.

Burger

Decent food and great service, just overpriced (even for airport food). It's kind of cool that you order on you phone and they just bring it out without having to wait to order... but no huger should be over $20.

Your way
Jinny C.

Had a great experience at Skillet thanks to the amazing service. It was early morning and I was in a little bit of a rush, but my server was friendly, attentive, and quick. I got the Your Way breakfast and it was a solid breakfast option. Both table and bar seating and to-go counter available.

Salmon Sandwich ($23.99) with Avocado ($2.99)
Wendi K.

I don't get why this spot has such bad reviews. It's got cozy booths and plentiful tables to chill at while you wait for your flight. The food is amazing. The grilled salmon burger ($23.99) with avocado ($2.99) was really delicious - fresh, succulent salmon perfectly grilled on a fluffy brioche bun and a generous mound of sliced avocado. The tomato bisque that you can pick for a side is creamy, flavorful, and delicious. The ordering system is super easy - they even have a QR code option you can scan to order and pay. The staff are polite and the food comes out quickly. Overall the perfect stop to grab some food before my flight!

Colleen M.

Food was cold. Burritos full of cold greasy French fries, served cold with a side of overcooked potatoes. Using fresh ingredients would be a start.

Fish and Chips
Sean H.

As someone who spends a lot of time in airports, I try to find a spot where I can actually sit down and enjoy a meal, and Skillet looked promising. The space is bright with ramp views and TVs, but I sat for about 10 minutes before anyone came over, while three servers stood at the bar talking, and the online ordering system wasn't working either. I ordered fish and chips expecting a solid Pacific Northwest option, but the fish was oily and heavily battered, the fries were a bit soggy, and it just didn't match the $20+ price. Overall, this one's a pass.

Ordered the breakfast burrito. It was what you'd expect to get at an airport eatery. Nothing special but hits the spot when you're hungry.

The place is not cheap and it's in the airport, so you can guess. We had a couple of drinks each. Then shrimp cocktail. I had hoped that would be better. The shrimp was obviously frozen previously. We would have liked fresh or at least to have that fact listed on the menu. Our server was sweet, efficient and friendly. For dinner we opted to share a rockfish and chips with an extra filet. It was VERY good!! My wife had never had rockfish before, so I wanted her to try it. She loved it! We'd come back here for sure.

I'm not talking those tartar sauce dipped dog turds they give you at Long John Silver. I'm talking beer battered Halibut with Malt Vinegar. What I received at Salty's at the Sea was three used car tires and fries that were so soggy they bordered on being spaghetti. I want to be fair. The service was par excellence. Arianne was the absolute highlight of the experience. She was warm and bubbly and missed absolutely nothing. Drink halfway? Let me get that. Need a ramekin? I got you. She did EVERYTHING right. Unfortunately, she was the only right thing about my visit, and for nearly $60, I expected much, much better than rubbery fish sticks and soggy fries. DO NOT EAT HERE.

Got there around 2130 on a Sunday night, not too busy ...until 2230 when ppl started to pour in so plan accordingly. Faith, my server, was a trouper.

We sat down to sticky booths that looked like they hadn't been dusted or cleaned in years. I didn't want to lean back and let my hair touch it. That kind of a booth. Next, we ordered coffee. The server said it comes with half and half and as she was about to walk away, I remembered my friend liked milk so I said, "oh don't you prefer whole milk." The server said they serve half and half with coffee and they don't have whole milk just 2% and if we we wanted anything else she could pour water in it. Normally this banter would be fine. This wasn't banter. She was annoyed. We stuck with the half and half. We looked at the menus that were COATED with sticky stuff all over the plastic and falling apart. It looked like a studen'ts notebook after a full year in grade school. We ordered a strawberry lemonade. Normally, my daughter will drink anything. It tasted like chemicals. Since two of us ordered two different types of benedict, the server came with sharper knives. She then WIPED THEM CLEAN with a towel hanging from her pocket. 20 min. later we got our order. Well 2 of us did. Mine was the wrong item so had to send back and they had to make me the correct one. No apologies from our server. We then had to ask for a third place setting. The server got it and when my daughter was using the benedict knife, the server took it FROM HER HANDS and gave it to our friend since she was eating french toast. The food was not good. The french toast tasted like dry bread coated in eggs. In other words, it hadn't soaked up any of the batter. My benedict's hollanaise sauce was in fact, some weird cheez-it mixture... it was orange and congealed. Let me add that it was a Monday at 9:30AM. It was NOT busy. Also word of warning, DO NOT use the restrooms. Just nopity nope nope nope.

My husband and I were visiting the Burien Farmer's Market and decided to stop in for lunch here. The day before our area experienced a heat wave. Apparently this effected this place of business. There were fans going everywhere, no a/c in place; I was hesitant to enter and I should have gone with my instincts. It wasn't awful so that we couldn't stand it, so we stayed. We had a very friendly waitress, wish I could remember her name but she was very good. I ordered a peach tea and my husband ordered a cider, I believe it was pineapple and another fruit based. I ordered the Ahi Taco Wrap and my husband ordered the Luna Fish and Chips. My husband's drink arrived with an apology from another server as she poured the wrong drink for him. He was gracious and took it anyway. Out come our plates. I tasted my husbands fish and found it seriously lacking in flavor; nothing great here. Now let's get to my Ahi wrap; I had serious issues with this.This includes tuna, avocado, cilantro lime coleslaw with chipotle aioli and lime on the side. House made chips and salsa were included. The wrap was hugely disappointing. The ratio of tuna to coleslaw was seriously off. 90 percent of this wrap was coleslaw. The chips weren't fresh and the salsa was just ok, had a sweet type of base, which I don't like in my salsa. The lime included was stale and I couldn't get a drop out of this. The chipotle was so so. The coleslaw had no distinctive cilantro lime flavor. This dish was entirely disappointing and priced at 19.95. Never again. My husband's dish had two pieces of fish and was priced at 18.50. So after the cost of the drinks, the meal was over 60. Shame on us for a few things: 1. For not looking closely at the prices 2. And for most importantly, for simply not grabbing a decently priced hot dog at the farmers market. I'm positive this would have been better and a better deal. We will not be back to this place. The only reason I gave this a one star was for the waitress and the peach tea. Seriously.
