This place serves the closest thing to an In-N-Out burger that I've had in Seattle, which in my world, is huge freaking praise. I don't know what the trick is, but they've figured out how to pull it off. As others have pointed out, wait times can be on the longer side here, but the prices are good and the quality of the food is outstanding. In another review I claimed that Vons 1000 Spirits had the best burger in Seattle. I fully stand by that. But Pick-Quick is #2. What a great burger. read more

Decided to try this again since I was craving in n out. However, this time the food didn't taste as much as in n out as before. The burgers and fries are still good though. The burger and veggies were fresh! The fries were crispy and tasty. I enjoyed their house sauce on the burgers and on the side for fries. There's not an ambiance since it's only a drive through or pick up window. The line and wait can be long. The service was good. The employee answered any questions I had. The food was basically fairly priced I'd say. read more

This was perfect for what I wanted (in-n-out). Also as a vegetarian. My friend and I came here for drive through on a Thursday night. Can't blame them for this, but it's really hard to hear/order in the drive through because of the loud honking. I got the "grilled cheese" which was basically the burger and added veggies. I wish they gave me the option for grilled onions with this too. It tasted plain but that's what I wanted. I also drowned it in the pick-quick sauce. I would come back for this when I'm craving in-n-out. It was also only $3!!! My friend got the double cheeseburger and it looked very good. He enjoyed it. We also got the chilli fries without the chilli. They couldn't melt the cheese for us because I think the chilli is supposed to melt it. The fries are hot enough that it melts, but I also wish they gave us the option for grilled onions here. Overall, would come again. read more

Fresh Veggies & Classic Drive-In Vibes! ​Pick-Quick is a reliable spot for a quick takeout meal. While the beef patty itself isn't anything out of the ordinary, I was genuinely surprised by the freshness of the lettuce, sliced tomato and onion. They are incredibly crisp and pair perfectly with the meat, making for a very satisfying Deluxe Burger--especially for under $5! ​The fries aren't necessarily the "super crispy" type; instead, they are skin-on and served fresh and hot out of the fryer. They have a great natural potato taste, and dipping them in the house sauce (which you have to order separately) is a must! The milkshakes are also wonderfully thick and rich. A solid 4-star experience for the price and freshness. read more

I prefer Pick-Quick to Dicks. Fries are top tier, burger is solid. Milkshake good. Worth a visit.

Bro I cant tell you again... this is the best burger in Seattle. everyday, every year - the sun always be shining on this spot in Sodo. Take a mental health day and go to Costco and then stop by and get Seattles best burger (grass fed). They have a walk up window and a drive thru ( no bathroom so plan accordingly). The best local ice cream and shake add-ins. Lets GOOO ! Ive been seeing the same employees for years so I hope they are taking good care of them. the service is great and efficient- I cant imagine how many burgers are pumped thru this drive thru. read more

This place reminds me of in and out with dick's(seattle burger shop) swag. Not because they taste the same, but its just the feeling my eyes and taste buds have. My partner got similar vibes. Fun fact, ive Been coming to this place ever since I was old enough to drive. Maybe 20 years now, unless im mistaken. Maybe once a year. Its not the best food in the world, but its good and different enough that I eventually start to crave it. Probably because they dont put soggy mayo sauce based lettuce on every burger by default. I enjoyed how fresh everything looks and tastes. Many small burger shops can be overly soggy and greasy, but luckily thats not the case at this quick burger joint. They dont have an interior dining space, only outdoor picknick seating so be ready for that. I believe it used to be drive through only, but they eventually converted it to walk up orders only. Might be why the name is pickquick lol. Luckily the old drive thru is used as a covering when you order and wait seeing how it rains so much in washington. Ps, everything looks small when they start cooking so dont let your eyes trick you into ordering extra food. Ylih yea, and They also make a decent milk shake. Strawberry pineapple for the win. read more

That deluxe burger (add fresh onion, no tomato) is perfect. Not too big. Tasted super fresh. Fries are fresh too!

A decent burger joint couldn't complain and couldn't brag it's a decent burger if you happen to be in the area walk up and drive through only fries were good they use real potatoes staff was super nice traded my shake when I didn't like the flavor and there's a parking lot for easy parking and eating read more

This is a drive through burger spot where I ordered a double cheeseburger with fries. I ate it about 45 minutes later, and from the first bite, it reminded me of In-N-Out. I definitely recommend getting it with grilled onions. The fries were great too they had a charred flavor that I really enjoyed. I'm so glad I found a place that's close to In-N-Out in taste, though the price is much higher in comparison. I did have to wait at the window for a couple of minutes, but that reassured me that they were making the burger fresh to order rather than handing out something that had been sitting in a bag. read more

Staff is always friendly & patient, being close to train traffic makes placing an order difficult @ times, & they understand this. Double bacon cheese burger is one of my favorite burgers anywhere, just really tasty imo, & a decent value. read more

Came here as i was told it is a good inn n out substitute as someone who always misses La Inn n Out. For those of you who are expecting to dine in - heads up - this is a drive through only burger spot in Sodo. It has a very classic and retro vibe and there is space to eat outside at the parking lot ( no seats) There was about 5-6 car line when we got in the line ( Sunday night) and waited maybe 5-10 mins. Ordered delux cheeseburger with triple patties, grilled onions , pickles and pick quick sauce. My inn n out reflexes also made me say "chopped chilli" expecting chopped pickled chilli pepper , however instead ended up getting a red sauce with ground meat ( chilli topping) - that was my bad. Overall solid burger, patties are thin - very similar to inn n outs. Buns were toasted. Maybe a little bit on the pricier side as I ended up paying 19$ for just 2 cheeseburgers (a double patty and triple patty) read more

You either do Pick-Quick or you don't. I do. I like the old style flat burgers, and yes, they are thin, so I like to stack a second or a third patty for a double or a triple. The shakes and soft serve are a definite yes. I am some-timey about the fries because of personal preference. I like a crispier fry or a crinkle cut, but they are still good. This is a drive thru place, and there is parking if you want to pull over and eat it there. I love the vintage look of their neon signs, and after all, it is a vintage kind of place in business for over 65 years. I get very friendly service at the window. My only struggle is I always call it Quick Pick instead of Pick Quick. read more

The fife location never disappoints but this one needs work. The cleanliness definitely is in question. The cost to value ratio is way off. The quality seems to be dubious. The shake had clumps of something in it that definitely wasnt chocolate. I tried here twice just to make sure and both times were epic fail. read more

I used to come here all the time but ownership changed a couple years ago. The food is basically the same but the service is terrible now. No one but the cashier spoke English today and when I said thank you the cashier slammed the window in my face without even looking at me. On top of that I saw the woman who drops off supplies come by today with expired out of state license plates on her SUV. The whole thing seems super sketchy. It seems like it's just a bunch of illegals in there and they don't care about their American customers anymore. It's a bummer because this is a classic Seattle standby but I probably will never go back. Two thumbs way down for the new owners' hiring and customer service. read more

driving down 4th ave s i was hit by an urge for a milkshake and while there's very little besides shakes and fries on the menu for vegetarians, this hit the spot in terms of flavor options and relative ease of procurement on a sunny monday afternoon. i opted for a 16oz mocha (extra charge flavor option) milkshake and that's what i got. good flavor and consistency. so much so that by the time i got off the west seattle bridge at the delridge exit that milkshake was HISTORY: i'd sucked it all down! read more

An old school drive thru or walk up burger and shake joint. No muss, no fuss. Just a solid burger and a couple of brown napkins. Decent little option if you're on the go. Definitely clears its fast food competition. read more

This review is solely based on their milkshakes. THESE ARE SOME GOOD MILKSHAKES. I couldn't decide on a flavor so I got banana and chocolate malt. Both were thick and creamy. The perfect consistency! Banana is made with actually bananas and has chunks....CHUNKS. The chocolate malt has a strong malt flavor and I like it. Solid milkshakes. Gettemmmm read more

We've wanted to try this place when but the line is always so long. Today we got our break. I'm a 5'1 female so their deluxe single cheese burger with grilled onions was a perfect portion. My husband said he'd go for the triple deluxe next time because the patties are small. It was a really good burger. The fries were old fashioned shoe string and very tasty. read more

Heard this place was Seattle's version of in and out so of course I had to try! Came here on a Friday around 6:30 not knowing how busy it would be. They have a drive thru and walk-up order option but we chose the drive thru. Probably because it was a Friday but it took us almost 40 minutes to get through the drive thru. Fries were cold when we got it :( but burger was delicious. It tasted like if I were to make burgers at home. Simple, cheese was melted TO PERFECTION and the meat was very good quality. How does it compare to in and out? Burger wise, meat is better here, lettuce is better here and cheese is better here but buns are better at in and out. Fries are also better at in and out if you prefer more on the crispy side. I also like that you can customize the done-ness of your fries at in and out. Overall, decent burger option if you're missing CA. Oh and the shakes here are better but if you ask me, get the malt :) read more

Very disappointed in this place. For the price of a burger I was expecting a decent size of a burger.Burger was small. The hamburger was the size of my palm of my hand. I thought I received a kids burger. Then checking the menu, they didn't have kid hamburgers.patties were small and thin, did have grilled onions, lettuce, tomato and some sauce, but that cost me $7:54.versions disappointed, I was hoping it was going to be a good place.on top of that, They short changed me. So I actually paid more. Won't go back, I would rather go to Dicks or go across the street to Burger King. read more

What a gem of a burger stand! Burgers are fresh, delicious, and customizable. Service is friendly. And they don't seem to be cash-only any more. The burgers are California (or In-n-Out) style. I'm not willing to go so far as to say they are better than In-n-Out burgers, but they are definitely in the same league. Fries are superior to both In-N-Out (by a mile) and Dick's. Shakes are good, too, and they have a few more flavors than expected (such as banana). Can't believe I just found out about this place - I'll definitely be back. read more

My co-worker recommended this place to me and she is a burger lover. I got a cheeseburger with grilled onions and added bacon. I felt like the burger was good, nothing mind-blowing, but it gets the job done when you want a burger. The fries were good, I ended up bringing them home to air fry because I like mine crispier. What I fell in love with was the mountain blackberry milkshake. I would totally go back just to get fries and that milkshake. The drive through line was long, so I parked and walked up to a separate walk-up window and I felt like I got the food in a decent amount of time considering I was waiting in chilly weather. read more

awesome spot for a in n out-esque burger! it's no frills, just a good solid burger! for the price and quality, i would come again. the ingredients tasted fresh, lettuce was crisp, meat patty was juicy. the fries are compareable to dicks fries, but i kind of like them that way. if only it were closer to downtown, but it's not too hard to get to via bus, or a quick drive into sodo. seems like many people opt for drive thru/park and order. like many people say, it isn't quick like bug name fast food chains, but i think it's well worth a little 15-20 minute wait. read more

Never disappoints! Grilled Cheese are my absolute favorite and just the best - why can't more burger places offer this?! PICK-QUICK Sauce is delicious but definitely heavily mayo based. French Fries are always fresh and hot. Chili is always yummy and fresh. They made both the Original Cheeseburger and Deluxe Cheeseburger correctly this time and they were so, so good!! 4 stars because the one time they did mess up our food and we complained about it, the restaurant did absolutely nothing / customer service is lacking and management needs to work on that. read more

We had a large order, spoke to the owner on Friday about placing our order ahead of time but he said don't worry, it will be ready in 15-minutes on Saturday. Went there a little before they opened at 11am and was told by Fernando that they would do it this one time only and made us feel like we were a burden! We also left a $60 tip!! From now on we will take our business to By's drive in down the street! read more

It is good, it is very good for a small drive-thru burger joint. But.... man oh man, does that long wait/slow service make it hard to justify visiting repeatedly. This place is more of the "once in a blue moon" kinda spots, because every time you crave it, you remember how long the line of cars took to get through last time... We aren't talking just 10-15 minutes of waiting... we are talking 45 -60 minutes waiting... sitting in your car... just wondering and guessing what the car 2 spots ahead of you ordered to justify waiting 10 minutes for their food. The burger is great, the fries are great! The fries taste great with their house sauce and their tarter is top tier. But lordy, does it take forever to get there. The burger stand looks clean enough and the local parking lot and the view it provides is not terrible. Sometimes you can pass the time with people setting up the little market nearby. Don't go here if you are in a rush, or your blood sugar is slow. Go here prepped with a podcast ready to sit by and wait. Sure it has some similarities to in-n-out... but even long late night lines for in-n-out go much quicker. Rain or shine, this place has a line. read more

Pick-Quick Drive-In is a stand alone burger stand with a straight forward menu, burgers, fries , hot dogs , drinks and soft serve . The food is made to order so it takes a little time to prepare, but at least it is fresh. There is no seating so you need to eat in your car, take home or eat by the window. The burger is good, but not quite as good as in n out. The fries are good, especially with the fry sauce that you need to order on the side. It is a solid burger joint. I will definitely return. read more

The hunt for the best burger in Seattle continues because I'm afraid this ain't it. Pick-Quick still deserves 4 stars though for convenience, service, and, you know what, you pay for a cheap burger = you get a cheap burger. It's satisfying in that old-school, no-frills, drive-in way but doesn't blow me away or make me want to make the trip down to SODO again. I also grabbed a banana milkshake which was more vanilla than banana and the banana flavoring was super artificial. Overall, it's a good option if you're hungry and in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. There's a huge parking lot adjacent to it if you want to walk up and order or sit in your car and eat. read more

Being originally from California, I miss being able to eat at an In N' Out Burger anytime I have a craving for it. I've had Pick-Quick on my radar because everyone keeps telling me it tastes similar to In N' Out. In my honest opinion, Pick-Quick did not taste like In N' Out. That doesn't mean it's bad, it just means they're similar because they're burgers and from businesses that began in the 1950's. However, they have their own uniquely delicious qualities and different business models. I prefer In N' Out, but in a pinch I am fine getting food at Pick-Quick. I just wish the speaker was louder because I had to really strain my ears to hear what the server was saying and asking me because of the competition with the adjacent loud road noise. Be forewarned that there are no tables at all here and the service was very slow!!! We ate nearby at the large parking lot next to Pick-Quick. My chocolate Malt was thick and delicious. Food was good, but sadly it did not satisfy my In N' Out craving. It was still yummy though so I would eat here again if I was in the area. read more

Cute little drive-thru burger spot. They had a pretty extensive menu with milkshakes, chili fries, hot dogs and burgers. Really reminded me of Dick's Drive-In but more of a mom and pop feel. The burgers were good but it was a bit disappointing that they took so long and they got one of our orders wrong and completely missed a burger. Would definitely stop by again if I was in the area read more

The drive thru line can get pretty long but you can always order online or at the window. I recommend the deluxe cheeseburger! I got it lettuce wrap because of gluten allergies and it was so good. The fries are soggy/limpy and aren't as salty as other establishments. read more

Simple and straightforward menu - you come here for a hamburger (I suppose maybe a hot dog). The drive thru can get backed up as they aren't the fastest. There's a parking lot across the way to park at and eat, or you can stand outside the walk-up window as well read more
