Love these small spots in Seattle that are very surprising. It is a little busy and hectic here on…read morea Sunday during the farmers market, so you gotta be very patient. There isn't really a system for ordering or receiving your food/drinks. It's kinda like when you go to a family's house and they're busy making sure all the food and drinks have enough love, so you gotta wait for them to do their thang and just quietly enjoy the process. The owner is suuuper kind and greets you as you enter and you can tell he really cares about his customers. He will let you know if he's busy and around how long to wait. I just gotta hand it to the owner, it sounds like he has a lot of regulars who come in for dosa, lentils, and chai. It smelled good every time he made some dosa! Masala chai: got mine with oat milk (he has to brew a new batch if you want a different milk), he usually uses half and half I believe for his chai. Love the spices! I like my chai pretty spicy and this is really good. He sells packs of loose chai so you can brew at home also Note: their masala chai is made with black tea and their pink chai is made with green tea and has pistachio Will come back to try the food and pink chai when it's not so poppin!

I saw reviews that said they sell prepared rice and beans as my cousin was hosting and preparing…read morebirria for us all. When we arrived, we were told by a kind and energetic female employee that they didn't do that and they only have prepared tamales. She did let us know that there is a Mexican restaurant on the other end that had rice and beans and we thanked her then left. The store itself was very clean and there was plenty of space to browse around but it is a bit cramped. The meats here looked very fresh and the prices were very fair too! I was thinking that we should probably get some snacks and decided to pick up tortilla chips, fresh made guac, and 1/2lb of chicharron which ended up being $20.20 and that seemed like such a great deal especially with how much chicharron we got and it was so delicious! My brother told me that chicharron is usually eaten with guac and their guac here was fantastic both with the chicharron, chips and on its own. My boyfriend wants to come back to get more options, he saw that they did a specific specialty for a good price and wants to try that out.

This is the place where you are in the center of White Center where there's a taco truck 25 feet to the south and one of the best Mexican food restaurant to the north that's about 20 feet away.

Don't pass up buying some of the salsa to go along with your tamales.

The beef cuts were definitely 5/5. The color isn't that nasty bright red that you see in markets but a natural red which we prefer. We got some cuts of steak which was great. Chicken liver was good. Pork belly was really cheap. The shrimp is farm raised though. Which was a down side

The food is consistently…read moreexcellent, the service is phenomenal, and the welcoming atmosphere makes it a place we find ourselves recommending again and again. We hosted our gender reveal party here, and the team went above and beyond to make the event special. It's a fantastic venue for large gatherings, celebrations, and families with children of all ages. The staff is attentive, accommodating, and genuinely invested in creating a great experience for their guests. One of our favorite features is the patio. Whether it's a warm summer evening or a chilly winter night, the outdoor space is comfortable thanks to the heaters and inviting ambiance. The food speaks for itself. The pasta and pizza are made from scratch, and you can absolutely taste the difference in every bite. The Rigatoni is an absolute must-order, and whatever special is being featured that day is almost guaranteed to be a winner. The kitchen clearly takes pride in using quality ingredients and preparing everything with care. If you're looking for a family-friendly restaurant with incredible food, outstanding service, and a great space for celebrations, G.H. Pasta & Pizza should be at the top of your list.

First things first, this is more of a 2.5 but I'm rounding up…read more Overall it was just ok. Nothing special and nothing outstanding except the coffee, that was the best part. Probably the least favorite was the Mongolian beef, it was kind of gelatinous and just weird. The crispy garlic chicken is ok, but overall I have had better. Their menu is huge, maybe that's the issue?

We've come here for breakfast and lunch…read more We came in and were greeted and given our table right away. They asked us what we'd like to drink as we went over the menu. I've tried their lighter breakfast with eggs, bacon, and hashbrowns. The eggs and bacon were cooked well. The hashbrowns were dynamite-crunchy and soft throughout. I've also tried their cream cheese ragoons. You get 7 in an order. These were more on the mushy side but was still crunchy on the outside. Just not as crunchy. The chicken satay was sooo good! It came with a side salad of cucumbers and red onion in vinegar and this crack dipping sauce. The servers were attentive and kept checking for water and drinks. We'll definitely be back to try more!

We got 6 flavors, blackberry, cocoa nibs, Rainer cherry, strawberry, classic, and pecan caramel. All were delicious! They had the same base with different toppings for the flavors. The pastry was flakey and the filling was custardy and not too sweet. The perfect farmer's market treat!

4.5 star review…read more They were at the farmers market at Crossroads so I decided to give it a try. I have to say, they stay crispy for a while which was surprising. We bought it at noon and didn't eat it till dinner time and it stayed crispy. It was around $4+ if you buy them individually, but if you buy 6, you will save a few bucks. We got original, pandan, banana chocolate, dark chocolate cocoa nibs, pear and blue cheese, and raspberry. The flavors were all good, and you can taste each flavors well. My favorite was probably the pandan and original just because they were more balanced. The banana chocolate and the cocoa nibs were a little too sweet for me and the savory one just had too much blue cheese (I'm not a fan of blue cheese). Overall, I would try them again if they have another pop up somewhere.

I went there to pick it up and ended up with a 5.5lb flat iron roast also. It's a pain to trim down the flat iron, but so worth it. As much as I love Japanese beef, I find A5 to be overwhelming. I prefer crossbred wagyu because the marbling is there, but not as excessive as eating a stick of butter. This full blooded US raised wagyu is definitely "eatable". I'd say the grade of what I got was--definitely more than A2, probably A3 or more. Definitely enjoyable as a whole steak. I definitely will come back to this butcher shop when the next time I'm in town.
