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.

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.

Burger
Cecilia R.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Brian H.

I unfortunately received some sad news from my family and as a result, the bartender as well as the manager kicked me out of the bar due to the fact that I was crying After I only had one drink

Shawn B.

Take a look at the picture of my bacon. It was raw as my eggs were also almost runny when they were supposed to be over. What a waste of money do not eat here or check your food better than I did.

the chub, with lemonade
Kat C.

Service was okay, waited five minutes to be seated when there were only two tables of people seated and one of the waitresses locked eyes with me only to ignore me. After being seated and ignored for ten minutes, water was served to a table that came in after me, maybe because I was one person and they were four? The other waitress that finally came over was much nicer and slightly more attentive, and the sandwich I ordered was very flavorful, egg done sunny as I liked; the salad seasoned well, brightening up everything with its touch of acidity. However, the bottom bun of the sandwich was soaked through which affected the texture quite a bit. Generally mid-level service with slightly expensive, quick and filling food, as expected of any other normal airport restaurant.

A Filipino Breakfast Experience You'll Never Forget…read more What can I say about Ludi's Restaurant? It's one of the most memorable, heart‑warming Filipino dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and full of soul--the kind of place where comfort food and genuine hospitality meet. We were even lucky enough to sit with a member of the family, who shared the history behind the restaurant. That personal touch made the meal feel even more special, like we were being welcomed into someone's home rather than just another breakfast spot. And the food--absolutely incredible. Every dish was comforting, flavorful, and deeply satisfying... exactly what you want in a Filipino breakfast. What We Ordered - Porkchop Breakfast -- Two beautifully breaded pork chops served with eggs, potatoes, toast, jam, and a rich brown mushroom gravy. Crispy, hearty, and delicious. - Lumpia‑Silog -- Seasoned beef wrapped in a perfectly fried eggroll wrapper. Crunchy, savory, and addictive. - Loco‑Moco -- A seasoned ground beef patty smothered in that same brown mushroom gravy. Pure comfort. - And as a special treat, the owner brought out oxtail for us to try--tender, flavorful, and unforgettable. Everything we tasted was delicious, soulful, and cooked with love. I truly can't rave enough about this place. If you want a breakfast that feels like a warm hug, Ludi's is it.

Yum. Truly worth the hype and the line. The ube pancake was so tasty, decadent, and fluffy. I…read morerecommend getting one (two gals split one) instead of a stack because while it's so good, it's big and it's kind of like eating cake for breakfast. We also shared the combo silog which was a great way to sample more of the menu. I enjoyed the garlic rice and ilocos especially. The diner feels so cozy and homey - old photos of the owner and customers and magnets his guests left are a nice touch. Friendly and attentive service despite the busyness.

What a secret gem of a place! Just tucked in from a bustling Denny street!…read more We started out with some cappuccino and iced latte, and they were lovely. They served the coffees with a little shortbread cookie, and these little details really elevated the whole experience. Also, the cappuccino was so foamy, and it hit the spot immediately. The breakfast menu was also fantastic. The TPC Breakfast plate included sausage, potatoes, bacon, bread, and some scrambled eggs. There also was an option to add Beecher's cheese on the eggs, and I'd say it was totally worth it. Most importantly, the Dutch baby was as good as they'd advertised. It comes out on a piping hot skillet which kept the dessert warm till the end of the meal. The service was very quick even though they were entirely booked out for the time we were there for. I appreciated the patience from the servers and their helpful directions in picking the menu items. I will warn you that we had to reserve our spot months in advance. This is probably because the restaurant is great but pretty limited in seating space. However, it was definitely worth the wait, so don't be discouraged. I highly recommend trying it out at least once. All in all, highly recommend! Please go try Tilikum Place Cafe!

We tried all three Dutch babies - classic, sweet, and savory - and they didn't disappoint. The…read moresavory-sweet combo was the highlight, especially if you enjoy contrasting flavors. The baked eggs, however, were just okay - nothing particularly good. The ambiance was cozy and nice, right in downtown Seattle. However, be prepared: the wait can be long, and once you're done, they'll need the table, as there's usually a line. Overall, it's worth a visit - just make a reservation and come for the Dutch babies. I was told there are seasonal Dutch babies so try again sometime in June maybe.

This is a lively place, always filled with a lot of upscale looking customers. So the atmosphere is quite loud, but fun in a buzzing way. We were seated quickly, as we had reservations. Our server Charlie, was engaging, friendly and on top of things. We ordered the shared dips---olive tapenade, eggplant, hummus, tatziki with some warm pita triangles. They're all good and a fun way to start the dinner. We each had kebabs---lamb, chicken and mushroom. All good, moist and tender all poured with a jig of ouzo on a hot skillet. The onions in the bottom get browned and crusty, so good to eat. One had a lamb burger which looked juicy and served with delicious mound of fries sprinkled with rosemary. Food here has always been awesome. Skipped dessert as we had homemade cookies to eat at our next stop.

The grilled cheese was made to perfection the bread was fresh, thick, and delicious, and it was packed with cheese! The tomato soup was also delicious with a unique flavor. My only (very minor) complaint is that it was served in a cup, which made it hard to dip the grilled cheese. A bowl would've been much better for dipping! Overall, this café was a quiet, cozy spot with pleasant employees. I'd definitely visit again.

Because you never turn away a delicious PNW Salmon dish. The place is cute, mainly wooden, lots of plants inside (my allergies were killing me here hehe). Plenty of sitting areas and window views too. I got lucky to seat by a window to just enjoy the rainy view. Their Salmon toast was delicious! I asked for the cream cheese on the side because I cant have lactose but I still wanted to try their dish with all ingredients. So I dipped the slices a few times to try it all and omg its so perfectly paired. I totally recommend it! The coffee was ok. I had their gingersnap latte seasonal drink. I asked with only 1 pump of sweet and alternative milk. I was not impressed. I prefer black coffee haha but if you enjoy sweet drinks you may enjoy this one. I still finished it, so it wasn't terrible just not something I'd order again. Also, Idk why my coffee was served on a to-go cup. Maybe that took some of the joy of it? Overall, I recommend the this spot. Staff was friendly. The menu is vast. Sitting arrangements are great and cozy. Within walking distance from the convention center and a couple of the hotels in the area.
