This probably isn't going to be a fair rating just because I wasn't here for drinks. I was here for…read moresome solid chicken and waffles. I had expectations to tell you the truth, but I was let down a bit. Although, I was convinced to try out the mozzarella sticks and that was a fantastic starter. Highly recommend it. They were huge and thick with the good white stuff stretching out of it when you pull on it after your first bite. Best mozzarella stick I've ever had. As for the chicken and waffles, that's another story. Now, this isn't your normal chicken and waffles here. It's a spicy chicken and waffle sandwich. Someone was trying to be clever with this one and granted, on paper it sounds like a good idea. Execution was pretty poor however. The spice on that chicken was overpowering. There was a lack of syrup when there should've been more. And the goat cheese made it worse. Honestly, if it were just a regular fried chicken that was not spicy and had a good amount of syrup with no goat cheese in the sandwich, it would've satisfied my craving hands down. It wasn't that unfortunately. Should just keep it simple with that one. I would've been happy with that. The stroganoff was solid though. Did not expect that to be so good coming out of a bar. Way better than what Olive Garden could ever dish out. So maybe that says a lot for some folks. I'd come here for the stroganoff and the mozzarella sticks. As for the place itself, it definitely has a saloon vibe to it. Place looked pretty slow when I was there, but there was a good amount of people finishing up their meals, so I probably just missed the breakfast rush. Bartender/server was quite friendly and there were no problems, so that's always good.

Tonight we stumbled onto our new favorite Mexican spot…read more I was craving birria, and since one of our favorite hobbies is trying new restaurants, I asked in a local Facebook group who had the best birria near us. After lots of great suggestions, we decided to detour and head to Taco City. The moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff -- always a great start. We kicked things off with the Dip Trio: chips, salsa, guacamole, and queso. It was fantastic. The guac and chips were on par with my longtime favorite spot, the queso was rich and delicious, and the salsa had a unique flavor that really stood out. It easily could have fed four or more people. I ordered the birria tacos. They were generously filled with flavorful beef and served with equally delicious consommé. For my personal preference, I would have loved them just a little crispier -- but otherwise, they absolutely hit the spot. My favorite dining partner ordered the Taco Trio -- two carnitas and one chicken. He's an "authentic taco" guy, and he said they were fabulous. As we were checking out, our server suggested we try the nachos next time. Don't worry -- we will definitely be back. This one just jumped to the top of our favorites list.

The cheese seemed too creamy to be appropriate for the dish. The guac was turning gray. I didn't order my food late. This was like 6pm. How can you manage to screw up the easiest dish and do it so thoroughly? For nachos and two beers I paid over $30. Never going back.

This Goblin loves good value at a family friendly establishment, especially after a long afternoon…read moreof total warfare on the countryside. There is something about coming here on a weekday morning that makes you feel like everything will work out. The menu is inventive, and they offer a "regional" cuisine that changes every few months. In my experience, this makes it fun to come back and see what's changed. They change the art as well to reflect each new region. Little things like this make Endolyne feel like more than just another diner going through the motions. The servers here lean towards excellent service. For example, I had my coffee refilled three times. I had a water ready only a moment after sitting down. They get pretty busy on the weekends, so make sure you don't get it in your head that you can just show up at 11:30 am unannounced on a Sunday and be instantly seated. The crispy potatoes are great, the cathead biscuits are solid, and the proteins always satisfy. I've eaten here over 20 times, and had only 1 dish I didn't really care for. If you are looking for a solid diner with cozy vibes, this is it. Remember folks, tasty "diner" food. Go in with that expectation, and you'll have a great time. And at the price we all pay for breakfast nowadays, I prefer Endolyne to Portage Bay anytime.

Great spot with fresh menus and staple favorites. Right now…read morethere is a lot of Mexican dishes along with their staples. We love coming here for brunch and for lunch and dinner. Favorite: Biscuits and gravy Mole- one of the best we have had in Washington - the mole sauce is cooked into the chicken really well. Rich but not overpowering. Mac and cheese. So creamy and using the radiatori pasta really helps to soak up all the cheese. Love their Vera Cruz salad- really well executed, I often just have that for my main course. They have their outdoor deck open now for the season, so we can bring our dog as well.

Nacho Mama's Fry Bread Cafe is one of these opportunities and we were in the White Center neighborhood and it was an easy stroll to come here. When we came in we pretty much had the place to ourselves which was okay I guess... it was relatively quiet for when we dined here. For what I got on the menu I got the Zucchini Curly Fries which had a nice, crispy and lightly seasoned batter that proved to be delicious! For my main course I had the All Nations Native Taco. What this consisted of was the fry bread that the place is known for along with ground beef, chili, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, sour cream along with some salsa. It was so good! The fry bread was amazing and I chowed it down like nobody's business along with those Zucchini Fries! It's a good thing Steve shared those with me because I could have ate them all. The wait seemed a tad lengthy but it's totally worth it to wait for the food to come. The folks here were nice and friendly. Good experience all the way around!

My spouse and I had our anniversary dinner at our favorite restaurant in West Seattle. Phoenecia…read morehas been in the neighborhood since 1970 and moved to their current location near the Alaska Junction in 2019. I fell in love with this place after using them for catering. We were looking for a different food experience beyond hotdogs. I was impressed. The family is Lebanese and the father was the inspiration for the food. When I came to k ow the place and the owners, the mother was active in the restaurant. She introduced me to Lebanese oregano (Za'atar) and gave me some to grow. The two sisters have always been nice, but Nadia and Sonya are simple beautiful humans that go Out of your way to ensure you have a great experience. Their wait staff are very good and you hardly know they are present as they quietly bring food and remove plates with quiet excellence. I have always felt warm and cared for each time I have eaten at Phoenecia and have been friends with the owners for about 15 years. I have friends that have food establishments but have not come close to Phoenecia. Burrata is a tricky one for me. To soft and it is like water and bland to a cheese with a very light flavor to begin with and too firm and it can have the texture of mozzarella. The shell of this was perfect and allowed me to enjoy it with the toasted bread. The warmed olives are a great way to start the meal. There is a hint of chili oil and decorated with arugula. I am not a fan of kale, however, the manner in which this salad is made with shredded kale, and a tangy dressing with toasted spiced garbanzo beans with Kalamata olives, blue cheese covered with thier lemon basil vinaigrette was just wonderful. The spicy shrimp strike an interring balance between the slices that are used and heat from the spices. I could eat this dish all night. There just never seems to be enough u til you remember that you still have another appetizer in the main course ahead of you. The saffron chicken linguini was amazing. The saffron flavor was intoxicating and I loved every fork full, leaving the sauce and bread as an additional treat together. I had a small tast of the gnocchi with lamb sausage in truffle oil and found it to be heavenly. I finished the meal With a Turkish affogato and enjoyed every sip and the melted vanilla ice cream simply added to the richness of the flavor. They have come up with a novel idea to recycle bottles that had whisky and use them for water. The shape adds a lovely decorative note to the table not expected. Phoenecia will always be a place like home for me.

I had high hopes for this place because I love Mediterranean food and there seem to be very few…read moreMediterranean restaurants in Seattle (especially after Mamnoon closed). While this place was decent, it was still lacking something. We had four in our group and shared the dolmas, trio of spreads, beet salad, truffle and mozzarella pizza, and the nicoise pizza. The dolmas were good (and elevated with the labneh from the spread trio). The hummus seemed bland. You could taste the eggplant in the baba ghanouj, but it was missing a little something (maybe salt or lemon juice). The beet salad was unremarkable. The pizzas were also decent, but I felt that the truffle one was the better of the two. The service was spotty. The food came relatively quickly, but had to wait several minutes after asking for a to-go box and the check to get those. And then we had to wait several minutes after that for someone to come back and collect the cards to pay said check (and about three different servers walked by our table during this time, including the one who had been serving us).

The prices are surprisingly cheap for the amount of food you get, which is always a plus. The food was really good (Daily Special B), but the highlight for me was the pancakes.

Customer service was also great--friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Overall, a solid breakfast spot with good food, great service, and very reasonable prices.

It's tucked into the fabric of Seward Park and frequented by locals. Italian food is my comfort food so when I dine I love love love places like this joint. You walk in and greeted like you live next door. You're seated and the oven hot bread is at your table in minutes. I'm asked can I get you a beverage and handed a menu. Now given after a preview of menu it's gonna be a veal piccata night and that's accompanied by spaghetti aglio e olio. Like OMG my two favorite dishes combined on one plate... say it isn't so . No salad tonight cause it's all about the veal, and for you folks who hate veal well "fuhgeddaboudit" cause I like it! After a small wait the main event arrives and folks it's delicious. Its tender and picata sauce is overwhelming with lemony sensations. I twirled pieces of veal and spaghetti aglio e olio on my spoon for the most amazing combination of tastes. Feeling satisfied and complete I didn't have desert which actually looked great. Who dosent love Spumoni ice cream when dining Italian style but tonight I didn't have the capacity to entertain another bite. Let's just say my meal was AWESOME! Now a little about the ambiance of Pizzutos. It's kinda stripped down. No fancy decor which is a blessing. These folks put the money in the product and not fancy settings. Good food is why I keep coming back and that's the bottom line... Dine local places like this cause it Makes America Great Again!
