Maybe it's the loveseats or the clubby-hip soundtrack, maybe it's the ultra-dim lighting or the mysterious shadows cast by streetlamps and passing vehicles, but before the DJ (performing six nights a week) starts spinning, Twilight makes a fine destination for an intimate tete-a-tete with a friend, lover, or significant-other wannabe. No surprise, specialty cocktails are numerous: the French 75 is always lovely, the Pear Martini is a favorite, and the Absolut Kurant Cosmo is a tasty twist on the urban standby. Even if you think you've popped in for libations only, the food aromas wafting from the kitchen will seduce you. Snack favorites include Dungeness crab cakes drizzled with roasted garlic aioli, seared chicken sate, and goat cheese fondue. Happy hour is a draw (featuring drink specials like house Champagne, lemon drops, wines, wells and drafts), and is especially convenient on Saturday and Sunday, when it goes from 6-9PM, making Twilight an ideal choice for a post-Pike Place Market unwind.
