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
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.

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.

We went on a cruise to Alaska and our port was in Seattle. Before embarking, I took the time to…read morevisit one of the area's Catholic churches. Just across from the church, a lengthy queue of folks stood outside a dining establishment. We didn't know what kind of restaurant it was until we noticed the Filipino Christmas lantern/"parol" hanging on the window. After a week of cruising, we made it our goal to eat at this restaurant. Since we docked early in the morning and the restaurant opens at 7am, we did not wait that long outside around 8am. There were only less than 10 people in line. We only waited less than 15 minutes. There were at least 20 people outside by the time we left before 9am. The interior Filipino household-themed decoration brought back so many memories. White Chicken Adobo Silog | Never heard of this type of "silog" before. Silog is a Filipino dish combination consists of fried rice ("SInangag") and egg ("itLOG"). I got so excited to try it since it's one of the weekly specials' menu items. I was debating between this and Salmon Silog, but I've also never tried white chicken adobo. The chicken was succulent and tender, allowing it to flake off effortlessly with a fork. The generous helping of garlic fried rice was heavenly. Couldn't ask anything more from this dish. Turon | The wrapper were coated with almost like spun sugar instead of being fried in sugar, which made this turon not overly sweet. The plantain that was completed well with halaya filling was soft and cooked well. Menu: In addition to various protein/silog meals, there were also pancakes and omelettes. Service: Eating at this restaurant feels like home. The cashier and service were nice and friendly. We were also attended by Tito Greg the owner of the restaurant. He roamed the dining area, greeting each guest with humor and genuine humility. Parking: There's a big garage by Pike's, unsure how much parking rate was at the time. Since we just came back from the cruise port, we just from there to the restaurant. Highly Recommend!

I tried both sweet and savory dutch babies, and even though I'm a savory person, I liked the sweet one better. It was creamy and bread was soft! The fruits added the perfect texture and sweetness to it. The savory was okay, keep in mind this is also my first time trying a dutch baby, but I would have liked it to have more veggies maybe? I think I was expecting more of it but it was mid to me. The breakfast plate wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Just your basic breakfast plate. The place is super cute and a bit small! It was a sunny morning so we had a lot of light coming through which I loved!

They had an amazing selection of pastries, though I didn't try any. I got their Caramelized Banana Latte to satisfy my sweet tooth, and it wasn't too banana-flavored nor too sweet; the black sesame in it balanced it nicely. I also got the Urban Pesto, which was SO yum. I was little skeptical of the focaccia - sometimes I find it to be too puffy, and thus hard to eat the sandwich - but this had a lovely panini press on it that made it easy to eat. The in-house herby cheese in the sandwich made each bite just that much more delicious. The staff was also super nice and accommodating to my parents' requests and questions. Can't wait to come back to try their other food and bev options!

Tempting pastry case with savory and sweet choices, the usual bevs, as well as, cocktails. Vibrant place to visit solo or meetups with others. The 16oz iced mokka (mocha) I had was well crafted. Both counter folks were personable and welcoming. I was able to sit at a two top and remain cool during my brief visit on that hot Tuesday early afternoon.

It was quite busy which we anticipated, so I would highly recommend making a reservation. We were seated right away with our reservation time, but it did take some time to be served. I enjoyed the hot coffee with a bit of cream. It was good; my only comment is that I wasn't offered a refill at any point, and we were there for over an hour. To be fair, it was SUPER busy; like at least 100 people in the dining room. I had one of their seasonal specials, the peaches and cream Swedish pancakes. It was a generous portion included with a trip to the berry bar. The berry bar was very fresh and well maintained as far as cleanliness. It was also in a prime location, near the tables but not too close and not in the way of the walking path. The peaches were juicy and sweet and the cream cheese frosting was a decadent topping. I added some berries which made it extra special. I liked the caramel shards, but they were a little on the thick side for my liking and were a bit tough to eat. However, I really enjoyed the dish overall! I also got a side of peppered bacon which was well-cooked, crispy, and extra peppery. My friend got the classic French toast and a side of potatoes. She loved the French toast with the included berry bar trip! However, the potatoes were cut into HUGE pieces which were difficult to eat even though they were cooked through. I would definitely come back here! If you're looking for a popular brunch spot with delicious sweet brunch options, check on Portage Bay Cafe SLU!
