Man I miss this place, we use to live near the south end of the zoo and this place was our regular treat every once in a while.  I used to hang out in the back as a kid, waiting for a bud of mine to finish up cutting the fries.  Yeah, they actually…More »

A true Seattle institution and an icon of days gone by.

Now please, those from S.Cal PLEASE do not compare this small family run bunch of burger joints to anything down south, you'll be unhappy and wondering what's the fuss.  This is no Tommy Burger,…More »

Okay, seems the kitchen help thang has been ironed out, the Chicken katsu has greatly improved and the Mac-salad is still solid.

I've only been here for lunch and an early dinner, we never got "free"  guac but we did get chips!  Maybe you have to ask for it?  Interior was bright and had a youthful fresh feeling to it.  You gotta check out the restrooms!

I did like the selection…More »

I used to work next door at Pier 54, during our mid-day break we'd hop next door and see if they had any "day old" cookies left, which was just the cookies left over after the lunch crowd was gone.  It was a nice break and the discount was solid!…More »
