a/stir

A contemporary American restaurant in Capitol Hill with Northern Mediterranean influences (Spanish, French, Italian, Greek, Turkish) that specializes in gluten-free cuisine paired with one of Seattle's most exquisitely curated cider, wine, and cocktail programs. Took over the beloved Capitol Cider location in 2023.

The kitchen is entirely gluten-free and nut-free, led by executive chef Ton Yazici. Downstairs offers a casual speakeasy atmosphere honoring classic neighborhood hangouts of yesteryear. The beverage program is serious: Mediterranean wines curated by winemaker Rich Burton, over 170 ciders, beers, and creative cocktails including zero-proof options.

Events include Monday night Cider Jam, Tuesday Cider and Games, Wednesday Capitol Cider Unplugged, and Drink and Draw on alternating Sundays. Located at 818 E Pike in Capitol Hill, a/stir proves that dietary restrictions don't limit flavor or craft. Open for dinner and happy hour.
