    A spicy, steak burrito.
    John M.

    I've been going there for at least 17 years. This place is the same as it ever was, and that's a good thing. Get the steak burrito, spicy. The tortilla will be griddled to a satisfying crunch, and filled with flavor. It takes a little while for your order to be cooked. Be prepared for a wait.

    Italian sandwich and fries
    Alaina F.

    This place was awesome. Small place Ive overlooked before and decided to try today- and not disappointed; cozy with cool decorations! The owner was the nicest guy ever, so happy and friendly. The sandwich was bomb, fresh , and the bread was toasted but soft. Fries were perfectly crispy, salty and delicious. Went with my co worker and we will be back for sure!

    The Chicken Sandwich from Nick's Grill
    Will B.

    My co-worker suggested Nick's Grill due to the reviews he's read about this restaurant. I was willing to try something new and we were not disappointed. Nick is the owner operator and a one man show. He's very personable and gave us recommendations regarding the best items to order. We both got the chicken sandwich, and in my minds eye, I pictured a McChicken of some sort. Oh boy was I happy to be oh so wrong. This sandwich is beyond my wildest expectations and amazingly delicious. Bring an appetite cause you will need it. The roll was nice and toasted, which adds to the depth of flavor. The Chicken was fresh and tasted like good quality chicken, well seasoned. The cheese is ample and the way it's melted will blow your mind. The sauce is sweet and balanced the sandwich nicely. The aesthetic of this establishment is very eclectic in a cool way, I felt like I'd entered a neighborhood joint from the east coast. A greasy spoon in the best sense of the word. Show Nick's Grill some love. I'm looking forward to trying other menu items soon.

    We always love this place for comfort food when the weather got little chilly. You can order in store or online. Parking is complimentary. The ambiance was family friendly. The owner was friendly and efficient. After you place an order in the store, he would call you when it's ready. Give this place a try if you are in the neighborhood. It hit the spot.

    Greasy chicken sandwich

    I guess I should have read the description better when it didn't just say "melted cheese" but instead said "tons of melted cheese" on the chicken sandwich, but what I was served was inedible. Just... grease soaked. Quite literally the greasiest thing I've ever been served. Bread fully soaked in grease, greasy chicken sliding out of a greasy cheese wrapper, sitting in a puddle of grease in the paper serving container, grease everywhere. And two little slices of tomato. Also, it tasted terrible. I had one bite and wanted no more. My partner got a burrito. It wasn't assembled properly so it didn't hold together; it was like they put all the toppings from edge to edge, and THEN rolled it. It was falling out all over the place. It was also incredibly bland. Like a step down from Taco del Mar. But at least I could eat it, as it wouldn't have made me sick the way the chicken sandwich would have. I'm all for supporting small businesses, and was super stoked to try this place due to all the good reviews, but sadly this was just not good.

    Italian with tots
    Lizzy S.

    Wow we have been sleeping on Nick's and we seriously regret it! My husband and I went for a late lunch on a Friday. Super quick and friendly service. I have been searching for a good Italian sub in the PNW, and I finally found it! Their house made dressing really puts it over the top! Served with a ton of tots - perfectly crispy and golden. Highly recommend checking Nick's out. Between the awesome decor, friendly staff, and delicious food. You can't go wrong!

    Burger with avocado and a side of tots
    Mae D.

    First off, love the retro decor! A mix of 80's and 90's memorabilia. There are about three chairs they each seats 4. And I noticed som barstools to the left of the register. They have a menu that consists of burritos, sandwiches, a customizable burger and various sides. This was my first time here and the cool dude manning the register and grill was super nice! The food is made to order, the veggies are fresh, the burger patty was nice and juicy, and the tots are perfectly cooked. I'd totally come back for that burger but I'd like to try their burritos next time! I'll definitely be back!

    Regular Steak Burrito
    Mark M.

    Went here for the first time for lunch with a buddy. Great spot! The day we were there they were very busy. It still only took 15 minutes to get our food. We sat at the bar and watched the magic happen on the grill. The smells of grilling food were amazing! I had the regular spicy Steak Burrito. It was delicious and exactly the right size for lunch. Great deep flavors and a little bit crispy tortilla. It all comes together for great flavors. Will definitely be going back!

    French Fries, Tater Tots
    Kevin R.

    We ordered two steak burritos, one grande & one regular. You can see the difference in the picture. The burritos had too much beans in my opinion. The fries & tater tots were good though.

    John G.

    We got the grande chicken burrito which was delicious and pretty grande. Hard for one person to finish, though not enough for two. While we liked it, it can be a bit hard to handle. We also got the steak sandwich, which I liked even better and a side of fries. The fries weren't my favorite, I prefer when they are cut thicker and more crunchy. I noticed that they cut a little hole in the take out box to let the steam out to avoid making the sandwich bread and fries saggy which is always appreciated.

    This is supposed to be a burrito. Ordered to go, pretty sloppy when I opened it up to eat it. Disappointed.

The giant pretzel is a must-order, and the cheese curds are exactly how they should be--crispy on the outside with the perfect amount of chewy cheese inside.

Our server was very friendly and helpful. They have an extensive menu of pub style foods. My wife settled on the fish sandwich, while I went for the breakfast burrito. Hey, it's 9 am somewhere, right? The fish got a thumbs up for taste, with a crunchy batter, but the portion size was lacking, especially for the price, which I felt was on the high side. My burrito, on the other hand, was a big portion and very flavorful. I thought it was priced appropriately. I also had a 12 oz beer - I liked their eclectic list of choices, but I was very disappointed to be charged $9 for this small pour. All in all, a good place, and great for a group.

Had a total party size of two. We even added our names, but when we got led to our seats, we were put at the barstools. There were plenty of other parties of two that arrived after us that got tables plus there were some empty tables for two that we saw as well. So we requested a table instead of the bar area, but the server told us the manager didn't want us sitting there. Didn't make much sense when there were empty tables. Maybe they had some reasoning or structure for weekend crowds they they had to follow, not sure, but we had to stay seated at the bar area. We ordered a Margherita pizza to split as well as a slice of carrot cake as I've heard a lot of good things about these items. The pizza had really fresh ingredients and the sauce and tomatoes were tasty, however the dough was incredibly salty and made it difficult to eat. This was my first time at Deru Market, but I assume it isn't always this salty and could have been a one-time thing. The slice of carrot cake was pretty expensive (around $14) but it's huge and good to split amongst 2-3 people. I liked the generous serving of nuts and shredded carrot inside. Cream cheese frosting was still a bit too sweet for me (think I prefer Deep Sea Sugar and Salt's to this) and I had to remove most of it, but the cake was overall pretty good though a little on the dry side. I get why this place is popular, but I don't think I had the best first time experience here. With the high number of positive reviews though, maybe they were just having a bad day since it was a Saturday and pretty crowded, so I'm hoping to come back again in the future, during like a seasonal special if they have any.

I've visited other Shake Shacks before, but this was my first time visiting their Kirkland location. The Kirkland location is pretty big and has a good amount of indoor seating and outdoor patio seating. It's located across from QFC and the kiddie fountains, and so you can enjoy your burger while watching your kids (or dogs) play in the water in the summer. My family ordered: - VEGGIE SHACK ($9.99 for a single patty, $12.99 for a double patty) - Veggie burger packed with mushrooms, sweet potatoes, carrots, farro, and quinoa, and topped with American cheese, crispy onions, pickles and ShackSauce. This is not your typical Impossible burger or black bean burger, although it has more the texture of the latter. The patty exterior is crispy and the interior is soft and mushy, which complements the crunchy pickles well. It's a little on the sweeter side because of the sweet potato and carrots, but overall a satisfying veggie burger. If it weren't for the fries and shake, I'd probably get a double patty as one patty wasn't satiating enough for lunch. - 'SHROOM BURGER ($9.99) - Crisp-fried portobello mushroom filled with melted muenster and cheddar cheeses, topped with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun. This was another unique vegetarian burger as I've never had a mushroom substituted for a patty before, much less, a fried mushroom stuffed with cheese. If you like mozzarella sticks, this is the burger for you! - CHEESEBURGER ($7.99 for a single patty, $10.99 for a double patty, $13.99 for a triple patty) - A made-to-order quarter pound per patty of 100% Angus beef with American cheese, and your choice of toppings on a toasted potato bun. We were a little disappointed by this burger as it doesn't come with topping by default and so it was a pretty plain burger. Apparently you have to ask for the toppings when ordering at the register (which we didn't know) or order via kiosk or online. - FRIES ($4) - enough talk about the burgers, these crinkle cut fries might have been the BEST FRIES we've ever had. They were burning hot right out of the fryer, super crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. They had just the right amount of salt and had a good body to them to, where even the longest strands didn't break. We loved these so much, that we ended up ordering an extra basket after we finished off the first. - VANILLA SHAKE ($6) - House-made vanilla frozen custard with real vanilla. I prefer my shakes on the thicker side, but this didn't quite meet the mark as it was more liquidy than I would've liked (perhaps because it's custard-based). While it supposedly contains real vanilla, there aren't any vanilla bean flecks and so it most likely just uses vanilla extract. It was cold and refreshing, but can't say I'd go out of my way for it. - COFFEE SHAKE ($6) - Dark roast coffee hand-spun with our house-made vanilla frozen custard. The coffee taste was kind of flat and tasted more like a Frappuccino. The lid also wasn't screwed on properly (or had extra liquid that got stuck underneath the lid) and so it spilled everywhere. Service was great and we got our food within 10 minutes after ordering. They bring the food to your table and you bus yourself. The outdoor tables were relatively clean. Overall: 4/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere
