Holy Tequila: new eats & drinks on the hill

The Saint grabs your attention from the get-go: bright turquoise exterior opens up to white and airy insides, framed matadors on the walls, Mexican fare that's all-natural and handmade...a plethora of tequilas. The perfect place for our first 70-degree day, we wandered in for a nosh and a drink, and lucky us, it was happy hour and half off food. We went for the small plates—spicy prawns, pork empanadas, citrus salad, chips with three salsas. Pretty tasty. Just be careful when you're ordering margaritas...the house marg set me back nine bucks—definitely not shoestring (although deliciously turbo). The Saint, 1416 East Olive Way, Seattle. 206.323.9922.
