This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. It’s not as good as some for pho or the elaborate french-inspired dishes. I go to this restaurant for lunch regularly in the winter because of the Super Chicken Soup. It’s the best, heartiest chick-stock concoction with rice noodles tha...

This is a one-man-show under new ownership. Abera is obsessed with the quality of the pizza and parmigiana dishes he prepares. The small storefront provides a lunch counter to enjoy the quick quality in comfort. The location makes it a convenient stop on the way home from the Pearl River tr...

I finally got back for the Pha’al challenge. Definitely worth the trip, although I can’t say that it was dramatically hotter than the extra-spicy Vindaloo I ordered on my prior visit. On the other hand, my standard of hotness may have risen due to my constant search for the spici...

We were ‘wowed’ with the robust flavor of the red curry dishes we were served at Sea Thai last night! This is the freshest-tasting spicy Thai food I’ve had in Seattle. For our appetizer, we had a unique ‘crispy fried rice’ dish in addition to the plate o...

Pretentious, but the clientelle don’t even bother to dress. I was excited to try the place after looking at the reviews here. My wife and I enjoy red wines and I had noticed the high windows and open decor from the street previously. My first impression upon entering...

This is a throw-back lunch counter – a place that may have existed in 1967 in the Haight-Ashbury. The target customer wears flip-flops and a sarong in winter. The chairs and benches are held together with duct tape and/or age-old grime. After you order and pay for your food at the co...

I enjoyed Tai Tung. The restaurant is laid out well for business meetings or perhaps clandestine trysting: most of the tables are in pleasant cubicles, with half the tables on a lower floor. The decor is pretty tired – it has a late-seventies feel to it with a griminess to it that dist...

This is an unfolding blossom of flavor on First Ave in Pike Place Market. The atmosphere is great for a casual, exotic lunch. The service is likewise casual and efficient. They will bring you a fork without it being requested, so you don’t have to eat with your fingers if you don̵...

This is a unique restaurant, almost. It’s the little brother of the original in ‘downtown’ Dallas. I’m pretty sure I went to that on my first trip to Dallas in 1983. I was more impressed then. The restaurant is in a strip-mall, but once inside it’s ea...

The food here is exquisite and the atmosphere is ideal for completely immersing oneself in the glorious textures, flavors, colors and scents of the fish and delicate, fresh spice and condiments of the sushi. The prices are not outrageous, but they are coming pretty close. The high cost in co...
