Seattle gives you seafood, a salad-base poke bowl and grill options to work with on keto. I’d choose the preparation as carefully as the protein. A fish dinner can still arrive with a potato problem.
This list was checked in October 2026. Menus change, so check the current menu before you go.
For ordering anywhere: start with protein plus vegetables, keep sauces on the side, and ask to leave off starchy extras.
The Pink Door
1919 Post Alley, Seattle, WA 98101
The Pink Door’s Post Alley menu lists Cioppino and Northwest Fish of the Day. Ask about the day’s preparation and leave off bread or starchy sides if they’re included. These are seafood starting points, rather than a promise that every version fits your carb budget.
Canlis
2576 Aurora Ave N, Seattle, WA 98109
Canlis serves a rotating multi-course tasting menu. The menu examples include a Halibut course, a Beef kalbi course and an optional Washington Coast Coho Salmon add-on, but courses also involve ingredients such as rice, koji, squash and chickpea miso. Ask the kitchen about adapting the whole meal before booking. A suitable protein in one course doesn’t establish that the tasting menu works for keto.
The Walrus and the Carpenter
4743 Ballard Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98107
This Ballard oyster bar has a rotating raw oyster list and Steak Tartare. If you choose the tartare, ask to leave off the rye toast. Check sauces and the current menu rather than relying on a fixed oyster selection or an old seafood dish.
Asadero Ballard
5405 Leary Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98107
The Ballard restaurant now operates as Asadero Prime, with a separate Kent location. For this grill, ask about a plain grilled-meat order and which accompaniments can be left off. Check the Ballard menu for the current cuts and sauces before choosing.
Ivar’s Acres of Clams
1001 Alaskan Way (Pier 54), Seattle, WA 98104
Ivar’s Acres of Clams is at Pier 54. Fresh Sautéed Manila Clams, prepared with butter, white wine and fennel, are a listed starting point; you can also ask about the grilled salmon or steak entrees. Check the sides and sauce, and skip bread or potatoes if included. Chowder and breaded seafood aren’t the choices this guide relies on.
FOB Poke Bar
220 Blanchard St, Seattle, WA 98121
At FOB’s Belltown location, build your bowl on the offered Salad base without rice. Tuna, Albacore, Salmon and Shrimp are listed protein choices. Check sauces and toppings individually rather than treating the unlimited-toppings option as permission to stop counting carbs.
