Seattle, WA 98105
(206) 343-1415
Categories:
Pizza,
Vegetarian,
Vegan
Neighbourhood: University District
Went here tonight and it was beautiful.
The spinach and artichoke dip appetizer was tasty, but the mini calzones (each with a different filling) were BOMB! Sunny Day pizza was quite good and had a very thick sauce.
The China Cola is a really strange…More »
2. Burger and Kabob Hut
Seattle, WA 98105
(206) 632-0324
This is not the fancy and/or unique place with comfortable seating, great atmosphere, and wonderful food kind of 5-stars..
This is, however, the juicy hamburger with the works for $3.95, tasty milkshake for $3.25, and close enough to campus/work (aka-…More »
3. Fourno's Pizzeria & Bar
Seattle, WA 98105

What's not to love?
+ They've got delicious food at incredible prices. (Especially the gyros!)
+ The owners (2 young Greek brothers) are nice and remember my name even when I haven't been there for months.

Fourno's is a great…More »

Categories:
Parks,
Playgrounds
Neighbourhood: University District
I love this park! Well, mostly the part where it's trails and ravines. The playground and field are good for some, but not generally where I prefer to be.
I live over on the Ravenna/Wedgwood border and LOVE walking over to the park from NE 65th st and…More »

6. BECU

(800) 233-2328
Category:
Banks & Credit Unions
Neighbourhood: University District
When I was in Vegas, I called up BECU to check on where I could find some ATM's. The customer service lady spent about 10 minutes on the phone with me browsing all the locations and trying to figure out the best ones (and answering some questions I…More »

Categories:
Hair Salons,

Neighbourhood: University District
So it's Friday afternoon, I'm in the U-District because I just finished up my classes for the week, and need a haircut. I checked out reviews the other day and remembered that this place has gotten good ones.
So I step inside. There are two girls…More »

Awesome coffee and friendly service! I almost never know the answer, but I love the daily trivia question that could get you a small discount on your drink. :)

Category:
Hair Salons
Neighbourhood: University District
This weekend I had some free time on my hands while in the U-District, so I wandered up and down the Ave looking for a spot to get my gone-wild eyebrows waxed back into shape. (I've been too busy/distracted to tweeze much lately.)
When I walked in, I…More »

Categories:
Juice Bars & Smoothies,

I recently found myself having dinner plans with a few people on a raw diet (two of whom were passing through Seattle), and this is the spot they picked to try. I'd never been to Chaco Canyon or consciously planned to have a "raw meal" before, so I…More »

Seattle, WA 98105
(206) 547-6500
Categories:
Thai,
Vegetarian
Neighbourhood: University District
I like that they let you select "vegetables" if you don't want the fake meat/tofu products. I also like that they have recently always asked if I want egg in my dish or not. I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but I dig this place. Last time I went I got an…More »

Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: University District
So I think it's pretty rare that you come back to a biz after several months, and discover that it's doubled in size and has made some big-ish changes...
There is now about double the number of tables, after ordering food you get a number and they…More »

This is an extremely busy location with long lines almost every time you come in.
If you're fine with that, they have some pretty good stuff at good prices. I generally go there for the frozen food, milk, rice drink (mmmm), cooking sauces, frozen and…More »

Got my hair cut here one time. The cut was nothing special so I can't really comment on much, but the girl did her job well. When I'm going to a hair salon I'm mostly concerned with feeling relaxed and cared for... and I got that here.
She was also…More »
15. The Burke Museum
Seattle, WA 98105
(206) 543-5590
Category:
Museums
Neighbourhood: University District
They had some neat exhibits and I really enjoyed the "free with a Husky card" aspect. Over-all, though, I found it to be a bit small and was disappointed about that. I might return when they get a new exhibit up.
What stood out: The beautiful pictures…More »

Seattle, WA 98105
(206) 525-0365
I think I just found another decent burger on the Ave. Woo hoo!
I like my burger naked (meaning just the regular toppings and nothing fancy or different), and that's just how they called this one there. I heard it was the frozen patty instead of them…More »

Neighbourhood: University District
Came in here for lunch and... first impression? Either it's just much more spacious and light during the day, or they've been doing some upgrades/painting, or both.
The food was good and so was the service. A woman was walking around refilling mugs of…More »

Category:

Neighbourhood: University District
We walked here instead of driving, so it took us a moment to find the entrance (which is in the parking lot, and not one of the doors along Roosevelt). I wonder if many people get confused by that....
I like the interior and the staff were very good.…More »

It was good enough for the burger-loving friend who was hanging out at the hospital with his new twin daughters... and it was definitely good enough for me!
The employees were pleasant and I enjoy being able to pick all of my burger toppings one by…More »

I'm functioning on 3 hours of sleep so I made a pit stop at Cafe Solstice this morning and they made me a deliciously wonderful mocha and fed me white chocolate banana bread.
It was about 8:40am on a Saturday so there were only a few people inside.…More »

My last experience pushed Araya towards the "bottom" of my mental list of places to go for Thai. Why? My last several visits had been for the buffet, which... well, buffet food usually doesn't impress me much. Then that last visit where they offered…More »
