Fodor's Expert Review Seattle Center Armory

A complete remodel changed the Seattle Center food court from an only-if-you're-desperate stop into a quick-bite destination. Several local restaurant groups have erected walk-up windows or shops here, from skillet burgers to Seattle fudge. The space, redesigned by Graham Baba Architects (responsible for several of the sleekest historic remodels around town), harkens back to the building's original use as a wartime armory, revealing big steel columns but opening up more light and space to enjoy your meal.
