    Smoked Salmon Penne
    Chris R.

    This hidden gem in the heart of Mukilteo, is locally owned and operated by a passionate self taught Chef who knows her food! The ambience upon entering was warm and inviting, walls adorned with musical legends. We were warmly greeted and encouraged to sit wherever we want. We started with the bruschetta and right away we could tell that Chef Tracy puts tremendous thought and care into the ingredients she uses. The bruschetta was well balanced, the flavors dancing on our tongue. We also enjoyed a fun and delicious caesar salad, lightly dressed with one of the best homemade dressings I've ever had. Our entree's, like the previous two courses, were also very good! We enjoyed a Smoked Salmon Penne (special) and a Pasta Al Pomodoro. Both were served in the fun boat like bowls and the portions were generous. Again, very thoughtfully prepared, with locally sourced ingredients that tasted amazing! For dessert we shared a to die for Affogato, made with a high quality vanilla bean ice cream and Italian Espresso. We are already planning a return trip to enjoy of Chef Tracy's famous pizzas, made with dough she prepares daily. If you are looking for tasty food, made with love and hand picked fresh ingredients, look no further! If you're lucky Miss Ann will be your server, making you feel like the neighbor they invited over for a meal.. A really good one!

    Came here to watch a friend play live music. So happy to discover this little neighborhood cocktail bar. While the interior is small, the decor is classy and inviting. The wait staff was on point..,friendly, attentive, and knew their stuff. And the cocktail menu was varied and original. I started with the Boozy Bradley and finished with the purple rain, both were great and presentation was delightful, I also really appreciated the cocktail's music themed names. My husband had the Dude looks like a Lady which was a bourbon concoction that was presented in a coupe glass. Looked feminine, but drank masculine! While we did not have dinner while there, I did enjoy the palomino oil appetizer, a tapenade that was delicious. The server was gracious enough to sub almond crackers for me since I am GF. I was torn between the third cocktail and the homemade gelato, chocolate peanut butter.I ended up with the gelato, which I don't regret. But I will have to return to try a number of other cocktails that were catching my eye. His is clearly a local hangout, where everyone know each other, but they were very welcoming and friendly. Can't wait to return. 5 stars for drinks and service! The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because I can't comment on dinner.

    In short Great deals on great drinks, food is really solid,…read moreand the setting is nice and friendly. Only drawback is that the hours are limited. In long Lately we've been seeking out places that are literally quieter--less volume on the music, more space between the tables, and so on. I'd been wanting to check out 5x5, anyway, since it's the only spot around with an exactly perfect rating score. It looked like it'd fit the bill for a low-key place, and off we went. We came in shortly after they opened on a Saturday (4:00 PM). You're in a larger business-traveler hotel here, aimed at Boeing and Boeing-sub folks traveling for work. The building looks kinda generic from outside, but there's plenty of parking, and the lobby has a high-ceilinged atrium vibe for sure. Nice floor tiles, nice carpet, tasteful furniture. Everything's in perfect shape. You don't feel the lounge vibe right away, but there's a gigantic fireplace ahead of you, warming both sides of the room from the middle. Around that, there are lots of sturdy, shiny tables under the lofty ceilings. Off to the side, there's a little lounge area, then another one. Everything in the lounge is bar-height seating, and there are a few flatscreens, probably showing the game. Most folks are in here, sitting around the bar in the middle of the room. We posted up at a table just outside the lounge. Lindsey was behind the bar, and cheerfully answered every single question we had about food and all their cocktails. She's super friendly and makes a great drink for sure. She seems to have a bunch of regulars who aren't staying at the hotel, which is a great sign, no doubt. We checked out the warm pretzel--such a decadent treat. The waffle fries (and especially the aioli that came with them) were awesome. The pizza was a great choice; we added pickled onions to the Speedway. The crust could be a little crisper but we took home what we didn't finish and it's great here, too. Service on food and drinks was really quick. The cocktails here can be really creative, and there are lots of classics with house twists on the recipe. They even have a pisco sour they've tweaked--that's a fair bit of work for a bartender to make mid-shift. We got 5 great drinks and 3 nice plates of food for $96, and I don't think we even ordered anything from the HH menu. This is a very easy place to add to the rotation.

We were there during the Seahawks game and one of the waiters noticed us struggling to see the TV as there were plant decorations and she moved them all out the way so we could watch which I thought was super thoughtful. [4/5] Food We got crab rangoons to start - I don't think I would get them again as the outer shell wasn't my thing (maybe the type of wrapper they used?) I got the chicken pho and my husband got the pho dac biet. We both enjoyed our meal - the bean sprouts and greens were fresh. Broth tasted very clean - we didn't find it too salty. We paid $49 before tip. A bit on the higher end price wise for pho. [4/5] Location/Parking Located in a small plaza right next to Grocery Outlet. In a small plaza by Highway 99. Adequate parking.

Food & drink: (5/5) We started with a salt and pepper calamari because apps are 20% off during HH. We love Viet style fried food and this was everything we wanted. For entrees, my partner got the pho dac biet, a craving that he easily ate clean. I took a sip of the broth and it reminded me a lot of the pho my mom makes which is always a good sign! I actually don't like pho all too much (compared to other Viet soups) so I got the bun cha gio thit nuong. The vegetables were fresh, the thit nuong was sweet and salty with a nice chew, and the cha gio was crunchy with good filling. Service: (5/5) Again, super friendly and gave a homey vibe that reminded me of my own Viet family. They were having a team lunch while we were there and it was super heartwarming to see!

But I ended up having the jicama tacos with prawns again. Light and scrumptious! My hubby had the ribeye tacos, which were a little too spicy, but absolutely delicious.

Several waitresses checked on us throughout the evening, making sure that our water was always topped up and we had everything we needed. We will be back again soon!

    I can't tell you how many times I drove by this place without even knowing it was here. There is a…read moresmall cluster of restaurants that honestly don't have the strongest reviews. La Gloria is the exception. Reviews glow, but since you have seen my score, it's clear there is room for improvement. Once seated, we were served a Tostada. This was a single small fried tortilla with beans, cabbage and salsa. Probably cost less than $.25 in material, but sells for around $7. Now whenever, I talked to my God Mother, rest in peace, about a new Mexican restaurant, her first question was always the same, "How were the Frijoles?". These beans were creamy, well-seasoned and flavorful. The best refried beans I've tasted in some time. I still say the appetizer is overpriced, but I also see why they serve you one free for dining in. We started with chips and salsa. I still say, they should be free, but at $4, it's a little tough to complaint, but I will. The chips came on a dinner plate. A dinner plate of chips would be about the same size as a restaurant basket of chips, however, there was a large bowl big enough for soup with the smallest amount of salsa in it. So now, 25% of that surface space is gone. This bowl which most likely holds 16 oz has about 3 ounces of salsa, in it and 1/3 of the plate space is empty, So you have enough chips for one person and barely enough salsa for dipping. The salsa was also tart, no heat, no seasoning, we were very disappointed. Last, if you charge me for chips and salsa, it better be bottomless, but once the chips were gone, they removed the plate and bowl without offering to refill either. There were a couple items that looked good to me, but they both had squash. Sorry, I've never heard of squash in Mexican food, unless it's vegan, but maybe it's popular in the region this family is from. Rather than ask if it could be removed, I decided to go with the Carnes Asada. The food took a while to arrive, but they said everything is made from scratch and fresh, so I anticipated a meal worthy of El Presidente himself! Now, clearly this place was not without its flaws, but this was the best Carne Asada I've ever tasted. I was really skeptical, because it was thick cut and when Carna Asada is thick cut certain things tend to happen, it's not cooked evenly, the meat isn't seasoned well enough, so bites end up being bland. No, this was juicy, well-seasoned and cooked evenly, flawless. It also came with a generous scoop of guacamole, that didn't really impress. It was also served with Fried Cheese, no idea what that is, sounds like something served at the fair on stick. I got several tortillas that were hot and fresh and a small cup of whole beans that could have used some crumbled cheese on top. There was also a large portion of rice, but the flavor was a bit fishy. I don't know if they used a seafood broth, but for me it was inedible. There was also a smoky, spicy salsa served, but again, it was a tablespoon. Stop being so cheap with the salsa! This also would have been a far better salsa to go with chips than what was served. Glad I tasted everything, but not sure I would order it again. I didn't eat half of what was served do to taste which means I overpaid. If we do make it back, it would probably be for happy hour. That way we could sample a couple other items in a smaller portion for less. Would I recommend this place, sure, but not without the above cautions included. I like to clean my plate and feel like I got a deal, neither happened here due to some questionable choices in flavor or seasoning. The people could not have been nicer, but I can't say we left completely satisfied.
