Chinese Village Restaurant Longview, WA
The food here is fairly priced and satisfying. The service is a bit laid back and inefficient but if you are just there for a leisurely lunch... you won't be too disappointed.
The British Pantry Ltd Redmond, WA
If you are ever in the mood for a good old fashioned British breakfast with some really good tea, then this is the place! They have excellent tea cakes, shortbread cookies, and scones served with wonderful English Breakfast Tea. For lunch, I they offer some really nice sandwiches and entrees AND they also have Guiness on tap!
Spud Fish & Chips Seattle, WA
Excellent fish and chips with a great view overlooking Alki beach! I had the special for $9.99 and it was hearty and satisfying. Very generous with the tartar sauce and I love the malt vinegar... I highly recommend it!
Chez Michel At Eaton Square Honolulu, HI
A fine little restaurant tucked away in Waikiki. Although parking can be difficult, the fine French cuisine and calm and relaxing atmosphere makes everything worthwhile.
Hungry Lion Coffee Shop Honolulu, HI
Serving breakfast in a diner-style environment catered towards the whole family, this restaurant is a local favorite. They do also serve lunch and dinner but I usually go for breakfast. The service is friendly and the food is good. Sometimes, when I feel like a change from Wisteria or Zippy's... this is the place I usually go...
Belltown Pub Seattle, WA
I just went to this fine restaurant/pub located in Belltown. The environment is very comfortable and the service was attentive. They have a fine selection of locally brewed beers on tap and also very tasty burgers. Of the group I went with, one of them ordered the pasta and it looked great. Not a bad place to visit if you just want to have a few drinks and relax with some friends.
Belltown Billiards & Restaurant Seattle, WA
I stumbled upon this place by accident. I was originally going to meet with some friends at the "Belltown Pub" (see review) but I didn't know where that was and when I asked another person on the street, I was directed here. This place has a very interesting atmosphere, most of the space is used for billiard tables while there is an elevated space where the bar is located... All along the two sides of the bar, there are also tables and booths for diners to sit. They have a full bar and offer some specialty cocktails. I had a drink and ordered an appetizer (which was half priced before 7pm). I had the Artichoke & Dungeness Crab Dip which was splendid! If I get a chance, I will definitely visit here again to try out their entrees...
Flying Fish Seattle, WA
I tried this trendy restaurant located in Belltown because we had friends visiting and wanted some seafood. The environment here is very nice and comfortable with some interesting decor. Service was also very receptive, all the seafood was very fresh, and prepared with an asian-fusion style we all found quite interesting. We had oysters served with sort of a Japanese style with Ponzu along with a Crab prepared in a Black Pepper Garlic bake. The steak was prepared just right and we also tried this seafood pot with a wasabi sort of sauce that was wonderful.
La Conner Seafood & Prime Rib La Conner, WA
I just happened to dine at this restaurant while I was admiring the Skagit Valley tulips... The prices are reasonable, the service was decent, and the prime rib looked great. Unfortunately, I didn't feel like steak that day, I ordered a grilled salmon which was exquisite. The dining environment was really nice and comfortable with that small town feel...
Sushi Ten Hana Bellevue, WA
I decided to try this restaurant with a friend after reading the outstanding review about it from this site. Although it was fairly close to where I lived, it still took us a good half hour to find this place since it was tucked away from the main streets, you can imagine how hungry we were when we got there! First off the bat, we stood by the doorway waiting to be seated for over ten minutes (it felt more like an hour since I was very hungry)... but from working at several restaurants, one of which a very good Japanese restaurant, I was surprised that no host greeted us and the sushi chefs were too busy with their work to even shout out the usual "Irrashaimase!"... I was beginning to get annoyed especially noticing that there were two sushi chefs at the sushi bar while only one person that seemed to function as host/server/cashier! This was during their special of "All you can eat sushi from 6pm-9pm" so you can imagine it was fairly busy (although we got there at 8pm). We were FINALLY seated at a table very close to the sushi bar in hopes of more attention... boy were we wrong! Our water and tea did not come until a good ten minutes because the one person I mentioned was functioning as a cashier at the counter. There wasn't even menus for us to look at, my friend decided to take two menus from another table. When we finally were attended to, we quickly tried to order... I was feeling adventurous and wanting to test out the quality of their sushi, I wanted the "All You Can Eat" deal (which isn't cheap for $20.99) but my friend wanted something else. The server at first said that the "All You Can Eat" is only available at the sushi bar but I quickly pointed out that the bar was full. After consulting with the sushi chef, the server said it was okay. So we ordered and anticipated the dreadful wait admiring the decent decor of the restaurant and my friend noticed the two cooks sneaking in from the front door behind a screen to go into the kitchen! Man... what sort of place is this?! Finally, the server did the one thing I thought was totally over the top... he came up to me because there was an ONE opening at the sushi bar and asked for me to go there! I asked what about my friend and he replied with a remark saying that I may not have the special if I don't sit at the sushi bar when there are seats... That did it, we just got up and left. Seriously, I don't care HOW incredibly good the food is here... with service like that, I'd rather go to someplace where the food is mediocre but the service is up to par!
Pho An Nam Bellevue, WA
I came to this restaurant which was right across from Sushi-Ten (read review for details) after my terrible experience. The food was really average, not really authentic Thai or Vietnamese food but tasty nonetheless. It's a small family run business with the mother working as the main cook and her two sons working as servers. The service was good, our waters kept full, and prices were reasonable. It's got a very homestyle feel to the place and I thought it was alright.
Gordon Biersch Brewery Rstrnt Honolulu, HI
Since I've gone to the Gordon Biersch's here on the mainland, the only saving grace to the one in Hawaii is the view... Don't get me wrong, the Hawaii one is good and maintains the standards of the restaurants on the mainland but lacks that atmosphere... Maybe its just me, but I notice a difference and the Gordon Biersch restaurant's here seem better.
Camellia Buffet Honolulu, HI
Prices seem standard to Yakiniku Buffet restaurants and they carry a pretty large selection of kim chee too. The meats are marinated well but the service wasn't up to par and you can imagine that the only service you would need at a buffet joint was either tea, water, and clean-up! The atmosphere was alright, clean and the air conditioning was really cold (I guess to compensate the heat inside while cooking along with Hawaii's temperatures)...
Sushi King Honolulu, HI
Whenever I feel like sushi for a midnight snack, this is the first place that comes to mind. They're open till late, they have an excellent selection of fine sakes, and the sushi is fresh and well made. The atmosphere is great and the service is superb. Although it may be a little pricey, but trust me, you get your money's worth!
Kobe' Japanese Steak House Honolulu, HI
A well established Japanese Teppanyaki steak house. The atmosphere was decent and service was receptive. The performance overall was okay, maybe that was due to my table having an inexperienced chef... I ordered the filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection and just melted in my mouth... really splendid! The bill came out to be quite substantial, good thing I had my Entertainment card!
Kengo's Restaurant Lounge Honolulu, HI
A pretty relaxed buffet experience offering a large selection of fruits, vegetables, and seafood. The prime rib still needs some improvement but overall very enjoyable. An excellent place to go for family birthdays or anniversaries...
Fortune City Seafood Restaurant Seattle, WA
One of the most authentic Hong Kong style restaurants here in Seattle, a VERY close second to the long drive up to Vancouver for really authentic Hong Kong style food. Unfortunately, they don't offer Dim Sum but a big plus is that they usually open until 1am (3am on Fridays and Saturdays) for those nasty midnight cravings... I love the congee there and the service is very attentive and the atmosphere is clean and comfortable. If you're looking for good Chinese food, this is the place to be!
Hi-Spot Cafe Seattle, WA
A wonderful little place for breakfast in the Capitol Hill area. They even serve "Green Eggs & Ham" (not to worry, just scrambled eggs with some Pesto)... The French Toast is excellent and enjoy their freshly squeezed OJ. Do go early because there's usually a wait but once you do get in... you won't regret it!
Marinepolis Sushiland Bellevue, WA
Good sushi at affordable prices! You have your usual conveyor-belt sushi bar which you're charged by the stack of plates you've eaten. The sushi is considerable fresh and the atmosphere is very comfortable. Tea and water is on the house while you could also order Miso Soup or other beverages. I highly recommend this if you're on a budget and want some sushi...
Rama On Post Thai Restaurant Seattle, WA
This elegant restaurant was conveniently located in the office building I worked in so you can imagine how often I go there. The dining room was elaborately decorated and the service was highly receptive. I especially like the Satays and their Spring Rolls. A great place to go after work for a drink! The only problem is there is absolutely no parking for the restaurant itself and the nearby lots are fairly expensive.
