    With this being the first Raising Cane's in Seattle, I definitely had to give it some time for the hype to die down. Located on the ave where a previous real estate company was, it looks like Cane's has claimed a permanent spot here! For people who aren't familiar, Raising Cane's is a fast food franchise that specializes in chicken tenders. I've been to several in other States but this is the first location in Seattle. My friends and I went on a random weekday evening and there was surprisingly barely a line. The first thing I noticed was definitely the decor. As a UW grad, I really appreciated the UW themed decor they had in the restaurant (dubs statue, cherry blossom chandelier), as well as the non-UW decor as well - the Texas toast chairs. In terms of food, it's decent! I think a lot of fast food restaurants carry a bunch of hype when initially opening, and Raising Cane's is no stranger to this effect. The fries and chicken were good, but nothing mind-blowing. The Texas toast is definitely delicious though, It's definitely one of the more reasonable prices for food on the ave. I'll probably be back, it's an easy option to grab a meal with some friends!

    This location is fairly new, so it is quite clean. The line may seem a bit confusing and long but it moves pretty fast with a couple of cashiers and self-service kiosks. The food wasn't bad! And the prices were great. I personally prefer Dave's Hot Chicken but honestly I have 0 complaints here. The Caniac Combo was big enough for my daughter and I to share. Interior decor was pretty and the venue was quite spacious with lots of seating on both floors. Recommended!

    They couldn't have chosen a worst location for the first cane's in Seattle lol. not only is there NO parking anywhere close but it's right next to a super busy bus stop. Besides that, the food is always solid. It's nice and clean inside.

    Meh. That was my reaction when I had the food here on a Saturday night around 9:30pm with my bestie and my foodie friend. We all waited about 20 minutes in line to get inside the already packed and loud interior, filled with tons of seats for mostly parties of 4, and a whole second floor filled with even more seats and some fun stuff to look at too. Tables were not very clean when we got to the one we decided to sit at, and had to use napkins to wipe off both the table and the seats. It's very brightly lit here though, and stays opens pretty late. You order at one of several kiosks near the front kitchen area where food is being made and prepared. Staff in general looked very disorganized and were in close proximity to each other behind the counter, but they still managed to get everyone's orders in; in turn this didn't affect my experience beyond the food and noisy environment popping mainstream radio music. I shared the 3-finger chicken combo with a side of fries with my bestie since I was already full from a previous meal we had which also involved fries. It comes with their signature cane sauce and garlic toast, along with your choice of drink, which we chose a tea/lemonade mix for that. The outside of the chicken wasn't crispy as I would have liked, and the chicken itself was also dry. It wasn't any better even when I dipped it into the cane sauce, which came as a surprise to my friends. The real winners were instead the garlic toast - not too heavy yet had a milder garlic profile - and the tea/lemonade too. The fries themselves were standard crinkle cut fries and didn't really need the cane sauce either. For best results, I would do what my friends and i did, and take a booth on the second floor overlooking the UW Ave at night and just enjoy the street view from above and chill. As seen on social media, there are big lines for this place but it depends on time; there wasn't one when I walked past here around 1pm on a Sunday afternoon.

    I have been so excited for the last couple years waiting for Cane's to open in Seattle! I finally stopped by for some delicious chicken tenders. The tenders were piping hot and the sweet tea was heavenly. It tasted just like other Cane's locations that I've been to. I got there around 12pm on a Saturday and there was a crazy line. It went by fairly quickly though which was good. Inside it was quite chaotic. Ordering was easy, you have the option of ordering at a kiosk or with an employee at the front. Waiting to pick up your food was insane though. It was very crowded and way too loud, the employees were practically screaming names out and people still struggled to hear. I hope they can get a smoother system for this. Or at least lower the volume a bit. Our group of 4 had to wait a little but eventually found a good table upstairs. The service from the employees was great, they walked by and picked up trash, offered refills, and kept the place clean. I'm very excited to go back but might be placing my order online.

    Today we were in the U District and happened upon the new Raising Caine's location. There has been a lot of videos going around on social media about lines around the block, etc. but when we arrived there was no line! This was like the Chicken Finger Gods saying "You may enter now but quickly" so of course we did. This location is so awesomely decorated inside with UW colors, pictures, logos, etc. It was wonderful. There were prominent photos of esteemed UW alumni and lots of old memorabilia. I wasn't too hungry so I had the kids combo which has 2 small chicken fingers and crinkle cut fries and a small drink. My companion had the normal 3 piece fingers meal combo which also came with fries and a drink and toast (lots o' starch). We loved the meal as usual and by far, the chicken fingers are the highlight. So glad to finally see one of these open up in Seattle. Can't wait for more to open. Excellent UW themed location.

    Mid to be honest. I expected to be wowed and was not. The lines weren't bad though. I waited 20 minutes outside in line until I finally got in and my order was taken immediately by a staff member at the counter. Food was ready in less than 10 minutes. So if you're worried about wait time it's honestly not bad. Warning: Hot sauce lovers....they don't have hot sauce packets yet! What chicken place doesn't have hot sauce?!! I tried the Cane's sauce and I was surprised it was good but nothing special to me. I prefer my hot sauce. I ordered for dine in but luckily they bagged my food to go so I took it home used my hot sauce at home! But seriously y'all need to get hot sauce for the customers! Chicken tenders were a lot smaller than I expected. To be honest I thought portions were a bit small. The fries and chicken were okay. No complaints as my food was hot and seasoned. Just not blown away and still think Chikfila is more preferable being honest. Staff were fast paced and efficient. The interior was bright and welcoming with plenty of dine in seating. Overall this is a more affordable and quick option in the U district now which is nice. I don't see myself stopping by often or returning anytime soon but the best things I tried at Raising Cane's was definitely that toast and I did enjoy the sweet tea.

    I had to visit this place to understand the hype. I ordered the chicken tenders and fries. The chicken was just okay, nothing special. But considering the price, it wasn't bad. Plus, it's a great spot for college students. There are many other good food options in the area that I would prefer, but this is perfect for this college town. Ohhh, and I Love the story of how it all started with the doggie!!

    I had Cane's once a few years ago and honestly wasn't impressed, but the new U District location changed my mind a bit. I've seen this place draw some crazy lines, so my expectations were pretty low, but when I went on a Wednesday around 7pm the wait to get inside was only about 5-10 minutes. You can order through kiosks, at the counter, or online for pickup. The pickup area was a little chaotic with everyone waiting for food, but we actually got our order pretty quickly and everything was fresh. It's definitely busy and seating can be tricky to find, but overall it ended up being a better experience than I expected.

    Very very busy but line moved very fast because service was excellent. Chicken tenders are very overrated but the sauce is what truly makes it good. Good to try for once, but nothing worth going back to.

    I visited this Raising Cane's location on 06/01/2026, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience from start to finish. As soon as I walked in, the ordering process felt very disorganized. There were two kiosks and several registers, and since I was paying with cash, I went to the register. Despite multiple employees standing around talking, it took about five minutes before anyone acknowledged me or helped me place my order. The customer service was not off to a great start. When I received my food, it looked like the standard Cane's presentation. However, I usually like hot sauce with my meal, and every other Cane's location I've visited has offered Louisiana Hot Sauce packets. I went back to the counter and asked for hot sauce, and the employee looked at me as if I had asked for something unusual. He turned to a coworker, who told me they didn't have any and gave me an attitude in the process. I found this frustrating because I'm from Seattle but have traveled around the country and visited multiple Cane's locations, including one in Portland, where hot sauce packets were readily available. Being treated like my request was strange made the interaction even more unpleasant. The issues continued while I was eating. Cane's uses compostable straws, which I appreciate in theory, but my straw broke twice while I was drinking. Then, while I was in the car finishing my drink, I removed the lid and discovered a fly inside. By that point, I was already halfway through the drink. What made this especially concerning was that there were flies visible both inside and outside the restaurant. While sitting at my table, I noticed several flying around nearby, so it appeared there may be an ongoing fly problem at this location. One positive note is that the decor is very well done. I've visited the original Cane's location near LSU, and I enjoyed seeing some similarities in the design. This location puts its own spin on things with University of Washington-themed decor, which was a nice touch. Overall, I was very disappointed. The chicken lacked flavor and seemed under-seasoned, something I've never experienced at any other Cane's location. Between the poor customer service, lack of cleanliness, fly in my drink, and underwhelming food, this was easily the worst experience I've had at a Raising Cane's.

    I don't see the hype. I had it before in Portland and didn't think it was that great but thought I'd give it another try again since there's so much hype around it. Luckily I didn't have to wait in a long line like when it first opened. I got the 3 piece meal and I will say the chicken is juicy and the Texas toast is buttery and soft. The sauce is what makes the food taste great. Nothing amazing. Not a place I'd frequent.

    Finally got a chance to check this first Raising Cane in WA. The service was very fast, we didn't have to wait at all. The decor is super funky, it's worth it to check out the disco balls, Texas toast sofa, etc. The chicken fingers were pretty good, but nothing really special. The vibe I guess is what makes it special.

    I have been going to Mr. Gyros for 20+ years and love Sammy and Joni. It is the only Gyro place I…read morewill eat at. However, I went today to the Lynnwood Express location and ordered my usual - Chicken Gyro with only Taziki, lettuce and cucumber and when I got home, it looked completely different than it ever has. Thinking they gave me lamb, I called them and the gentleman explained that they have changed their chicken and that the owners said that the other chicken was too expensive now. This makes me so sad. The whole reason I get their chicken gyro is because of the thin sliced chicken meat. Sadly, it just isn't the same and I probably won't get it again, which is honestly devastating because I LOVE MR. GYROS SO MUCH. Sammy & Joni - Please, Please, PLEASE consider going back to the original chicken meat....you are the ONLY Gyro place that had that kind and it really set your apart from the rest. I know your customers would be willing to pay more to have that chicken again.

    Went to Mr. Gyro's since it was the closest late night spot to us. Got a falafel plate and a…read morefalafel sandwich. The plate was good, but a little pricey, and small portion side sauces. The sandwich was also solid in taste but the portion was severely lacking. For $15 I would have expected something more substantial but the sandwich, which is actually a gyro wrap, was very small. The sandwich was about the length of a grown man's fist. For the price I do not think it is worth it. Unfortunately unless circumstances is a factor we will not be returning.

I believe that is what many of us are searching for when we venture to the golden arches: a sense of childlike wonder, excitement, and giddiness. Unfortunately, McDonald's has grown up alongside the rest of us and lost its childhood as well. You can see it and feel it when you walk in, and you can definitely feel it when you look at the prices. Long gone are the days of colorful chairs, in-store GameCubes, and $1 any size soft drinks. Instead, the design takes cues from a mature cafe: muted colors, uniform seating arrangements, and a hushed atmosphere. The ordering process is very cold and efficient. You punch your order into a machine, take a number, and get seated. An employee will bring your order out to you and give you a curt thank you before returning to the kitchen, and that's the last human interaction you'll have inside this establishment. An introvert's dream. And in terms of ease and efficiency, a win for both the customer and the employees. But why does it leave me feeling so empty inside? The prices have "grown up" the most out of everything here. Don't go looking for the $1 items, you won't find any (except water, which notably costs $1 instead of being free). It is nearly mandatory to take advantage of the app to avoid spending $15+ on a meal. 20 pieces of chicken nuggets will cost your soul. The food itself was fine, and the speed of service was impressive, so no complaints there. In fact, we may be looking at the peak of quality and efficiency at McDonald's. But have we lost something along the way? In its effort to grow up, has McDonald's lost some of its innocence? Maybe I am searching for something that was never there. Maybe my happiness no longer resides in those delectably crunchy rows of fried potatoes. Alas, we cannot remain in the past forever. The only constant in life is change. If you go searching for a happy meal here, you can certainly order one, but you may not find one.
