Review of Samara

This is one of the best restaurants in Seattle and they are very accommodating and careful about gluten cross-contamination. Many, sometimes most, of the dishes are gluten free, and they will gladly modify their dishes to make them gluten free upon request. For example, I wanted to try the salmon tartare so they served it with radish slices instead of crackers. Their homemade crackers and any other bread products are made in the basement, fully separate from the upstairs kitchen. The service at this restaurant is excellent, helpful, attentive, and completely unpretentious. My husband and I always choose this restaurant when we are having a special night out.
