Food Scene
Stopped in at Stone for lunch on a Friday and it was packed! Luckily we only had to wait a few minutes but people kept piling in so I recommend coming early.
Their side dishes are delicious! My favorite is the marinated potatoes. The kimchi was a bit spicier than the usual Korean restaurant.

It reminds me of the bodegas I frequented in Brooklyn, the prices are reasonable for a tiny "oops-i-forgot-waffle-mix" corner mom and pop, and they make a mighty fine sandwich. The sandwich is the star of the show, even though they carry fine wines, beer, and enough of a cheese and meat selection to pull together a last-minute charcuterie plate. My husband and I shared a Bronx Bomber (made with pastrami) and a Brooklyn Rueben (made with corned beef). Both hit the spot. And those aren't the only hot sandies they have. Ask for a recommendation. The friendly guy at the front is a good spokesman-borderline-evangelical for their sandwiches. I, for one, can't wait to go back.

Love this place!
Heard about it from different people and it didn't disappoint.
The authentic Caribbean food reminds me of my roots and the flavors that are not always easy to find in the Pacific Northwest.
Prices are very reasonable and service is typically fast, although the place gets packed!
There is limited seating, so if you are in any kind of rush, take out will be your best bet.
The grilled chicken sandwich is my favorite and I would recommend it!

This place is great. The food was delicious, we ordered the quesadilla Chukis style. The flavors were all over the place, hints of spice, pineapple, guacamole it's simply the best favored taco I have eaten.
The place was crowded so I would recommend getting to go if the place is full, just grab napkins.
Staff was friendly and food came out within 5 minutes of ordering.

he restaurant itself is small and there's not a lot of seating area. Fortunately, we were here on a weekend so there were seats/tables available. I'm not sure how the crowd is on weekdays with its close proximity to Amazon buildings.
I had the Gemeli -- which is basically like braised pork pasta -- more hearty. My husband has the shrimp bucatini and he really enjoyed it. I would probably get the shrimp bucatini if I go back again.

This place is casual, super-friendly, affordable and fun. There are enough things on the menu to keep trying new stuff, but all I want to eat are those Sweet Potato Tacos!!

Great BBQ with great options at a great price!
After coming here several times, I can confirm that no matter what you order, it will be tasty.
This is a high quality barbecue place with offerings that won't burn a hole in your wallet. Everything from the pulled pork, to the chicken, to the personal favorite of brisket are all cooked wonderfully!

Drinks & Nightlife
My absolute favorite chill daytime bar when I lived in Seattle. It's a very family friendly environment with a good selection of beers on tap. They have both board and card games, out door seating, and free apples and pretzels to snack on while you drink.

My favorite 'dive' bar in town. Cheap drinks, friendly bartenders, and the most interesting crowd of locals around

I came here recently for a Yelp Elite event and I was SO impressed by both the quality of the drinks, the service and the general atmosphere. The location of this quaint bar is fabulous (right in the heart of Amazonland), but unlike a lot of the other crazy bar locations around here the vibe was very laid-back (which I enjoyed). The space itself is part of the open lobby of the Hotel Moxy, and felt more like a cozy living room than a hotel.

This place was busy for a Tuesday Happy Hour. We got the fries, cauliflower, duck & rabbit rillettes, and the sliders. The sliders took a little while to come out but they were worth the wait. However, by that point we were already pretty full from all the other stuff, especially the rillettes. Everything was delicious, but special kudos go to the rillettes--it is as tasty as it is beautifully presented, and the portion is VERY generous...we had to ask for more bread to finish it!

Great place for groups or date nights! It can get pretty crowded, so there could be longer wait times, but this makes more time for conversation and drinking/eating.
