This is my favorite restaurant of all time! I would eat here every day if I could (I would also weigh 700 pounds).

I love Mexican food, and I love Mama’s. I’ve never had something there that I didn’t like. Their burritos are huge – more than enough food for one person! Their taquitos are great, and their tacos are quite simply the best I’ve ever had. Their chile relleno is super. Tons of fresh chips, with a nice spicy salsa, keep you from being too hungry while you wait.

The atmosphere itself is fairly eclectic – including one room dedicated solely to Elvis. Posters for upcoming events cover all of the walls and it isn’t unusual to see a varied crowd dining there.

Prices are great, too – very reasonable. All in all, I don’t think Mama’s can be beat!

I don’t think Daniel’s dinners are anything exceptional (except, perhaps, exceptionally over-priced), but their appetizers are fabulous. And the best way to enjoy them is at happy hour – Daniel’s Broiler has one of the best happy hours in the area.

Running from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM seven days a week, you can get many of their fabulous appetizers – including seared ahi tuna, steamed clams, teriyaki beef tips, fried artichoke hearts, popcorn shrimp, and Daniel’s signature BBQ prawns – at half off. Combine two or three of these appetizers with a glass of house wine (around $3.50) or a beer (around $3.00), and you can have a fabulous meal for not-too-much-cash, especially given the regular menu prices. You can also order off the full menu in the bar.

It’s usually packed, so come early to get a table. All three Daniel’s locations offer a good atmosphere – my favorite is the Leschi one because it is empty and, on a nice summer day you can sit outside on the deck and enjoy the views of Lake Washington.
