After years of cooking along the shores of Maui and amongst capitol buildings of Olympia, Washington, Chef Leroy returned to Seattle to helm the kitchen at Branzino. Here, he sources the freshest ingredients available from local businesses including Corfini Gourmet and Frank’s Quality Produce in Pike Place Market. In the tradition of Italian cooking, these ultra-fresh ingredients shine in simple recipes such as tender, grilled octopus and wood-fired oven pizzas topped with cured meats made in-house daily. Servers can help guests find appropriate wine pairings from an extensive list of varietals that highlights the finest grapes of Italy and the Pacific Northwest.
