The chowder at Market Grill is an herbal, cream-based soup loaded with clams, potatoes, and dill, giving it a fresher profile than many standard versions. Its defining element is the noticeable herbal note and plentiful clam content, which keeps the flavor bright instead of purely rich. The texture is moderately thick, with tender potatoes and clam pieces suspended in a broth that still moves easily on the spoon. An editorial write-up specifically singles out this chowder among Pike Place Market offerings, noting its generous clam and dill presence.[27]
