Others will mention the Portland area (a very-much enlarged definition of "Greater" Seattle), like Edelweiss in Vancouver, or the Rhinelander and Gustav's and the Widmer Gasthaus in Portland.

Others will also mention Szmania's and Reiner's, in Seattle; not that they're terribly "German", just that they often have German items on the menu - and Szmania's does a really good schnitzel, too.  The bottom line is that there seems to be a scarcity of German restaurants in Seattle worth recommending, though.

If you want to get really "great" about it, though, there's a place in San Francisco called Suppenkueche that is really excellent, possibly one of the best German restaurants on the West Coast.

 Well that's certainly stretching the definition of "Greater Seattle
 area" a bit .  ;-)    Though I'd generally agree with the
 recommendation.

 There's the place in Kenmore on Bothell Way, near Teo's Mia Roma.  I
 can't recall the name and have not personally dined there.  I know many
 who have however and have heard good if not great feedback.  It can't be
 too bad, it's been there about 20+ years.
