    My wife and I stopped into Ernie's for a quick beer to pass time while in the area. Free parking can be found in the parking lot. Discover is an accepted form of payment. It is clear that Ernie's is a local dive bar with friendly regulars. Every place needs a dive bar to hang at from time-to-time. Indoors one will find friendly staff, TV's, dart and pool tables. Outdoor seating is also available. The on-site kitchen prepares standard pub grub. During our visit, my wife and I each slurped on a pint of beer for $6.75 each. Thank you Ernie for helping us pass the time while in the area.

    The very nice lady behind the bar with pink and pink cat ears was VERY nice! We had to leave to get a pizza down the street and she let me keep an open tab on trust and honor alone, very old school. Will be coming back!

    The food is SO GOOD! Tried both the pork chop and the filet and both were so flavorful and cooked…read moreperfectly. Also, dedicated Gluten free fryer & a lot of gluten free options!! Such a good date night spot, it's so cozy. Couldn't recommend more!!

    My family and I went to Tin Room last night and while the restaurant itself was cute and the staff…read morewas awesome, the food left a LOT to be desired. As an appetizer, we ordered the grilled pork belly. Served on a bed of fennel & apple salad,(?) the pork was well-cooked, tender, and had a great smoky flavor. This was the high point of the meal for me. One of my family members ordered the fish & chips as an entrée and I tasted a piece of it; it was a tasty piece of fish and a nice tartar sauce, but the slaw served with it was over-seasoned and mostly inedible. My entrée was the pork schnitzel, and it was decidedly not what I was expecting. The pork was not pounded thin, but rather served as a 1inch think boneless, breaded pork chop on a bed of sautéed purple cabbage and a mustard sauce. It was tasty but not $30 tasty, especially as the pork chop in look & taste came off as Shake & Bake? I honestly am providing this place 3.5 stars because the pork belly was yummy and the other members of my party were mostly satisfied with the meal, tho one did complain that their burger was rather dry. While I would eat there again because I would want to eat the fish n chips and try that pork belly again, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone for their first time in Burien.

    This is definitely my favorite hole in the wall sports bar. They do lots of fun events, especially…read moreSt. Patrick's Day and Super Bowl.! I've been coming here for several years, but have never written a review‍ I went today and watched the Seahawks win the NFC championship game. As always, there were great food and drink specials. I had the dirty dog. (a corn dog, covered in chili with onions and cheese and a green tea shot made into a drink. It was actually a white tea shot because it wasn't made with a dark liquor. It was made with vodka,peach schnapps, and sweet& sour mixed in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Looking forward to Super Bowl Sunday, eating and drinking great specials! Go Hawks!

    Conditional Service & Hit-or-Miss Drinks…read more I resorted to having a drink here tonight hoping my favorite bartender was working. Unfortunately, she wasn't, and I'm really not a fan of the guy who was on shift. His drink consistency is seriously lacking, and his music choices suggest he's stuck in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure with non-stop 80s metal. The last time I brought a date here for a nightcap, she was severely disappointed in the drink he made her. It was so bad I literally had to order additional shots just to add context and flavor to save it. Tonight, I asked him if he had the ingredients for a top-shelf Long Island. He said he'd check. Five minutes later, while he was just leaning against the bar, I had to ask him again. He casually replied that he didn't have what was required. He could've just been straight with me from the jump, but I honestly think he's holding a grudge because I told my date--within his earshot on our last visit--that he wasn't a very good bartender. Tonight, he proved me right. He was short, vague, and completely reluctant to provide consistent service to paying customers. It probably didn't help that his own date was hanging out at the bar with his buddies at the end of the counter, which is clearly where all of his attention was going. Considering his attitude, I stuck with a couple of simple whiskey shots--can't screw those up! Next time, I'll definitely be calling ahead to make sure one of the ladies is working before I walk through the door. The art of customer service is highly conditional here.

    Love finding cool spots like this! It's a wrestling themed bar on the south end of White Center…read more We went on a Friday early evening and there was free street parking along the street. There was not too many people and we got served right away by the bartender. They have some cool unique cocktails. I got the first one, which is a custom gin cocktail for about $15. I usually cringe at cocktails over $12 but this really was worth the $15 price tag. It was so balanced and nicely flavored and had a good strength. The place has bar seating and booth seating, and televisions all over showing football, wrestling, and more. They have a mini wrestling ring at the front, which is fun. I bet this place is so fun when they have special events. In the back they also have pinball, of course! And board games. The wall is covered in art and wrestling memorabilia which adds to the ambiance. We sat at the bar for a bit and the other guests were nice too - chatted with us, chatted with the bartenders. I think some people are regulars, which is cool. I really liked this lowkey unique bar and wouldn't mind making a trip out here again soon.

It was like a blast from the past bar with all the old school games and with a nice beer selection. Definitely worth checking out if you like bars with old school games and tvs at every table to play on!
