Frommer's Review

At the south end of the Fremont Bridge overlooking the Lake Washington Ship Canal (not officially in North Seattle), Ponti is one of Seattle's most elegant and sophisticated restaurants. The menu, which changes weekly, roams the globe from Thailand to Italy, while also offering some solidly Northwestern creations. Perennial favorites among the appetizers include the Cajun barbecued prawns and the Dungeness-crab spring rolls with the dipping sauce of the moment. The weekly listing of fresh seafood might include the likes of grilled rare ahi with a coconut rice cake or an outstanding Thai penne pasta with grilled scallops, Dungeness crab, and tomato-ginger chutney. Before or after you dine here, take a walk around Fremont to check out the funky shops and eclectic public art.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
