Review of La Carta de Oaxaca at 5431 Ballard Ave Nw, Seattle, WA 98107

La Carta de Oaxaca (wahaka) is a great Mexican restaurant with good quality eats from the Oaxaca region of Mexico. The atmosphere is very charming with photographs and regional displays on the wall and the staff is friendly. Sitting at the counter is a great experience since you get to see you...

A very charming atmosphere and great seasonal Northwest-French fusion menu make Chez Shea a top-notch eatery. The food is definitely not cheap but if you’re looking for a special occasion or just want to splurge on great food, this is the place.The fixed price menu is great to get a tast...

Seattle, WA: Samurai Noodles - "Firm noodles (adjustable) and great broth make..."

Review of Samurai Noodles at 606 5th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98104

by xuster:

Firm noodles (adjustable) and great broth make this place a must-try for any Ramen lover. Really those two factors can make or break a ramen place in my eyes. A few years ago, I really thought there was no good Ramen in Seattle and one had to trek about 2 1/2 hours (plus border wait time) to V...

Bellevue, WA: Chantanee Family Thai Restaurant - "A nice Thai joint on the East Side"

2007-05-13T22:01:16-07:00

Review of Chantanee Family Thai Restaurant at 150 105th Ave Ne, Bellevue, WA 98004-5913

by xuster:

Applying my yardstick for all Thai places (Phad Thai), this place measures up. The noodles are the right consistency and the sauce is not overly wet.Also try the fried bananas. It’s a great dessert for anyone that doesn’t mind collecting some cholesterol points.

Seattle, WA: Nishino - "Best Sushi in Seattle"

2007-03-05T18:45:45-08:00

Review of Nishino at 3130 E Madison St, Seattle, WA 98112

by xuster:

Ok, I know I said that Shiro’s is the best sushi in Seattle but that was before I really re-acquainted myself with Nishino.I know this sounds obvious but good sushi really depends on two things: 1. Good cut of a fresh piece of fish2. Sushi rice consistency and taste

Review of Porcella Urban Market at 10245 Main St, Bellevue, WA 98004

by xuster:

When Capri Italian Market on Bellevue Way closed it’s doors due to lack of business, Bellevue lost a great Italian specialty shop that carried great imported cured ham from Parma, Italy. Even though some people may disagree, it was truly a great loss for the neighborhood.The birth...

Seattle, WA: Cedars Restaurant on Brooklyn - "Conflicted in Seattle"

2006-10-07T00:51:19-07:00

Review of Cedars Restaurant on Brooklyn at 4759 Brooklyn Ave Ne, Seattle, WA 98105

by xuster:

I never thought I would say this about Cedars but I don’t know if I’m ever going there again. Cedars is easily the best tasting Indian food in the Seattle area. Of this I have no argument.I once frequented this restaurant that offers bottomless chai and a great Madras Chili ...

The former owner of Seven Star Pepper Cheng Biao Yang finally decided to seize the Chinese food market opportunity on the East Side of Seattle by opening a decently authentic Szechuan restaurant in Bellevue.The food is very spicy but flavorful and authentic enough to satisfy the Microso...

Bellevue, WA: Firenze Ristorante Italiano - "Mangia!"

2006-10-06T00:56:05-07:00

Review of Firenze Ristorante Italiano at 15600 Ne 8th St, Bellevue, WA 98008-3927

by xuster:

When I first arrived in Seattle about five years ago, I was convinced there’s no good Italian food in this town. Having lived in Boston and New York, authentic Italian food wasn’t very hard to find.After some careful searching, it seems that good Italian food is available in...
