What to order

The best things to order at 13 Coins

First-timer or returning regular -- these are the items that define the 13 Coins experience across every part of the menu and every hour of the day.

24/7 signature

Steak and Eggs

A center-cut steak paired with two eggs any style and hash browns. This is the 13 Coins order -- equally satisfying at noon or 3 AM. The combination captures exactly what the restaurant does best.

Counter seat essential

Eggs Benedict

Poached eggs on Canadian bacon and an English muffin with hollandaise. A brunch classic executed with full-service care at any hour. Best enjoyed watching the open kitchen from a captain's chair.

Steakhouse centerpiece

New York Strip or Filet Mignon

13 Coins takes its steaks seriously. Both the strip and the filet are centerpieces of the dinner menu -- order with a baked potato and a glass of Washington State red for the full experience.

Pasta comfort

Fettuccine Alfredo

A longtime 13 Coins comfort classic -- fresh fettuccine in a rich Parmesan cream sauce. Available at 2 PM or 2 AM, it represents the diner side of the menu at its most satisfying.

Late-night cocktail

Classic Martini

The full bar operates 24 hours. A gin or vodka martini at the counter while watching the kitchen is one of Seattle's most atmospheric late-night rituals. The Old Fashioned and Manhattan are equally strong.

Breakfast classic

Smoked Salmon Platter

House-smoked salmon with cream cheese, capers, red onion and a bagel -- a Pacific Northwest touch on the classic lox plate that fits 13 Coins' Seattle identity perfectly.

The 13 Coins experience

What makes 13 Coins different from every other Seattle restaurant

Walk in at midnight, 3 AM, or 7 AM -- the experience is the same. Full white-tablecloth service, an open kitchen visible from every counter seat, and a menu that spans prime steaks, eggs Benedict, fresh pasta and cocktails without compromise. There is nowhere else like it in Seattle.

The captain's chairs are the signature. Tall, dramatic high-backed swivel chairs line the open-kitchen counter, elevating diners so they look directly into the kitchen. Ask for counter seating on your first visit -- it is the intended 13 Coins experience.

The clientele reflects the hours: hospitality workers finishing late shifts, travelers from nearby hotels, night-shift professionals, early risers, and regulars who have been coming since the 1970s.
