We ate recently at Anthony's on the waterfront. That's okay. (Though the
miniscule amount of crab in my $11.95 appetizer was criminal.) If you have a
car, you can drive to Ray's Boathouse at Shilshole (still in the city, just
west of Ballard). Actually it's hard to avoid seafood in Seattle, especially
salmon. The important thing is to get wild salmon, preferably from Alaska.

Other sights: the downtown Art Museum, the Underground Tour, assorted parks.
The arboretum should be nice in October. You can walk around Greenlake.
Downtown you might want to do take-out in the Freeway Park--weather
permitting. Or get sandwiches at Salumi and eat in the Waterfall Park.

Walking on the ferry to Bainbridge Island/Winslow and walking around
downtown Winslow is nice. The whole island is much too big to walk around in
an afternoon.

With a car you can drive to neighborhoods like Alki Beach and West Seattle,
out Madison to Madrona on Lake Washington, across 520 to downtown Kirkland.
This gives you a better idea of what it's like to live in (greater)
Seattle--which I think is more fun than visiting.

We ate at Ivar's on the waterfront back in June and thought it was very
good.
