The burgers here are great, better than any burgers you can get from any fast food joint (including red robin). And the reason is because you can taste the charcoal in their burgers. On top of that, the price is awesome.

This time, I’ve decided to try the only chicken dish on their menu, which is the chicken sandwich. To my surprise, it’s just as delicious as their beef patty burgers (and it’s healthier cause it’s white meat).

They also have a fish burger. But it’s not high up on their wall menu yet, cause it’s a new item. I plan to try that next time I go there.

Cheaper: With coupon, four of us ordered two large pizza for a little over 20 dollars. And one of the pizza is a stuffed pizza, which makes it extra filling. Also, because you’re baking the pizza yourself in the comfort of your own home, the only person you need to tip is yourself.

Hotter: The delivery time is from your kitchen oven to the dinner table. I always prefer fresh-out-of-oven-burn-your-mouth kind of hot pizza.

Healthier: I always find Papa Murphy’s pizza to be a lot less greasy than the other ones.

Lately, I came to Kiku twice for dinner, and both times I got their Bento Box.

Service is great and I’ve always enjoyed the homey feel to the restaurant. It’s not a big restaurant so be sure to make reservations if you have a big party.

Although you get a crap load of attitude from the restaurant owners, it’s almost impossible to get pissed off at them. The food is excellent, but going there to MEET THE MAN is what makes the dinning experience so much fun.

The Man walks around with a spoon and a pot of his secret chili sauce. If you’ve never had it, he’ll dip a toothpick in the sauce for you to try.

Never tempt him by saying “I heard it’s nothing” or “I’ve had it, it’s nothing”, because he will put a spoon full of chili sauce right on your bbq. You will CRY! (literally, from the spiciness).

Never ask him to put his chili sauce on the side, because he will never do it. It has to go on top of your food.

If you’re in the Greater Seattle area, or you plan on visiting, go to Dixie’s BBQ. The experience is one of a kind.

I’ve been eating the same item on the menu everytime I go to the Treehouse, so I can’t say how good their other dishes are. For the dish I ordered (Starvin’ Student Burrito), you should definitely do what the name tells you – STARVE YOURSELF! Cause if you do, this Burrito will taste like the best Burrito you’ve ever had in your life (It’s really not). On top of that, this is one cheap dish. Comes with Tortilla chips, too. It’ll fill you up and leave you satisfied, but remember, starve yourself before you order this dish.

I almost couldn’t finish their super burrito, but I still did because it was too good.

Authentic Mexican, generous portion, and great prices.

Great shrimp

Inside the restaurant, menus on the wall are hand written in Chinese. That’s gotta mean something, right?

The restaurant is owned by a Chinese family. If you eat there often enough and get to know the owners, they sometimes surprise you with free tea eggs, usually when it’s a special occasion (birthday, graduation etc.).

Just avoid the lunch specials, they’re never the authentic dishes.
