A normal day I may experience a few person wait. The helpers get you ordered super fast and you're eating within 5 mins. Cause it's in the Pacific Place you have a lot of space to find seating.

We visited Pike Place Chowder after hearing all of the hype about it being an award-winning…read morerestaurant and serving the best clam chowder in the United States. Unfortunately, our experience did not live up to the reputation. The clam chowder was just average. It wasn't bad, but it certainly wasn't memorable or deserving of the accolades we had read about. The slice of sourdough bread served with it was extremely dry and tasted stale, which was disappointing given Seattle's reputation for great sourdough. We also ordered the cod fish and chips, and the fish tasted like frozen, pre-breaded cod rather than fresh fish. The coating was crispy; although, the fish did taste fresh. Overall, we left feeling that the restaurant was overrated. We had expected a standout meal based on its reputation, but instead found the food to be average at best. While the service was fine and the line moved efficiently, we wouldn't make a point to return or recommend it as a must-visit dining experience in Seattle.

There is an online waitlist through the Toast app, which is a great way to save yourself some time. https://tables.toasttab.com/dough-zone-pine-street/joinWaitlist?deeplink=true Dough Zone has a new QR code order system, which is very convenient and works for everything except alcoholic beverages. You can open a tab and then order more items whenever you feel like it. That's great, since it can take a little while to get the attention of the waitstaff. You need to order alcohol from an actual human being. Do bring ID - I'm in my 50's, and I still get carded every time.

There's not too much seating available so I would recommend making a reservation but I was luckily able to snag a table for myself without one. Service was very quick Mala Spicy Beef Dry Mix Noodles (medium spice), 5/5, delicious!! I think the medium was the perfect spice level for me where it wasn't too little or too much and I thought this was quite filling. I was very hungry as I didn't have lunch so I finished the whole bowl but I think if you were eating normally you could have a bit to take away as well! This is an ideal meal for a cold, rainy Seattle day and the restaurant's decor and large fish tank definitely gave it a Chinese restaurant atmosphere

However I decided to check it out since it's a lot closer to where I live and was craving some sushi. Their selection isn't as big as FOB's but it's still very generous. They have inari, rolls, and nigiri - they do limit the number of "expensive" nigiri you can get though which does kind of suck. I tried a few rolls and a few nigiri. They all tasted really fresh, and I like how they aren't as enormous and one-note tasting as FOB's. Everything tasted unique! This should do the job to satisfy the sushi cravings :)

This is a sushi by the pound place in SLU, but they also have a menu with variety of things such as udon, inari, chirashi, etc. The selection of fish you can choose from in the weigh your sushi section is not that big. They only have 2 high premium fishes available: otoro and amberjack. However you can only get 1 of each, which to me defeats the purpose. I also got a bulgogi inari and it was $5 / piece which is pricey. Another thing is that they use a lot of rice, too much rice. Service is ok, they ring you up and bring the food to you if you ordered through the menu. It's a very relaxing and chill area as well. The food we got was just ok but for the price, it's not worth it. I'm glad I tried but most likely will not be back.

There are so many average onigiri places these days that just plop mushy rice together with a few ingredients and call it onigiri - but it's clear this shop places emphasis on quality which makes it clearly stand out. We had the Ume Konbu & Tuna Mayo and both were excellent 10/10. The rice is cooked perfectly and the ingredients are high quality. Reminds me of the onigiri I had in the streets of Japan. Service was prompt. There was a huge line at Eggslut next door - skip that line and try some bomb ass onigiri.

It was the first time I've seen a line for takeout (maybe 10 customers) but everyone quickly lined up against the wall until someone called us out by name with a rack of orders.

I understand the safety concern but she was extremely loud and confrontational in her tone the entire 20 seconds people were receiving their orders.
