quick, simple, easy service. quick bite to eat, freshly sourced meat (cruelty free!), fresh ingredients for their shakes & meat, all good things ! i was excited to try this due to the hype of everything, but to my dismay, i was underwhelmed & didn't much so enjoy my burger: it seemed like an average burger you'd have at a neighborhood grill, nothing special. two of my family members got shakes - strawberry & chocolate - both very thick & flavorful, obvious that it's fresh dairy - to sweet me for me, but a good treat ! i do have to say, the tartar sauce though is pretty amazing. this location was not so crowded, the lines very short, & well staffed. no seating areas as it's a more pick up & go, laid back, sort of place. read more

This is the 1st time we have ever been to a Dick's restaurant. Their business model is to serve a basic burger quickly so they do not do custom orders. So as long as you are okay with that, it is great for a simple, smallish burger with a fairly small patty. They do use their own secret sauce which most people love. You can basically opt for cheese or no cheese. If they screw up your order, they are pretty good at making up for it with Dick's coupons which go towards your next purchase. They do not have any gluten-free options. It is a simple walk-up window with some small counter space to stand and eat at. No chairs. Always clean. Basic burger. In and out quickly. Low price. Open until 2am. We all need this option at some point and now you know where to go!! read more

Great burgers, quick service! Eat your fries first, they taste the best then! My sons are full on Fanatics. The Burger cones to their work periodically. Love the food. read more

Putting 'Fast' into the term Fast Food: Dick's is a local hamburger institution in Seattle with a focused menu, having a cult-like following for folks who grew up in the area, but a bewildering 'meh' for out-of-towners and transplants who can't understand what the fuss is about. My wife and I had to try it for the first time during our 4th visit to Bellevue, even with the warning not to expect too much. Both of us like McDonald's and In-Out, so have a nice basis to compare it to...Verdict: we liked the burgers and fries. As everyone knows, everything is prepared beforehand and is sitting under heat lamps. It is a Drive-in (vs a Drive Thru), so you need to place your order on foot, and the same order taker will grab your food, come back, and then you pay, all under a minute. Thus you can ONLY order what is already prepared, just like pizza slices. I got the Dick's deluxe, which is two 1/8 lb fresh (never frozen) beef patties with lettuce (not allowed to get extra) and a combo of ingredients (mayo, pickle relish) that actually makes it taste like tartar sauce as the condiment. The chopped lettuce was wilted because of the heat....the taste actually reminded me of a Filet-o-Fish sandwich if the fish was replaced by beef. The bread is the white bread from your childhood, and infinitely squishable, with the cheese tasting like processed cheese spread. Put it all together compacted, and put under a heat lamp...result is a meld of different ingredients that strangely is tasty together. It does help that the beef is of quality, but note it's only 1/8 of a pound so not particularly juicy. The fries remind me of the homemade fries served at hot dog carts and shops across the midwest. It probably resembles the fries at Five Guys and is definitely better than In-Out Fries. But ketchup is extra (0.20), which is the first time I've seen that at any restaurant in the U.S. Most of the fries were crispy and went well with the burger. There is no seating here, so you would either eat it in your car or just find a place to sit down and eat outside, hobo-style. This is not good food, but I understand how it could be a source of regional pride, because it is unique (similar to how White Castle sliders are admired). No, I won't be having this again, but there is something to be said for a well executed vision of a process that is clearly articulated...there is no fooling here, and in this day and age, it's very refreshing. read more

Dick's is our go-to spot whenever we're craving a cheap cheeseburger and fries and want a quick bite. The food comes out very fast and we've been here countless times! As a California native, I'm definitely an In-N-Out fan but I love how quick and inexpensive Dick's is. I order a plain cheeseburger and fries - the burgers are tasty (a few times they've been cold) and the fries are great (most times besides tonight where they were unfortunately undercooked, limp, cold, and soggy). Their milkshakes are really good too, I've only tried the chocolate so far but I'm a fan. Super creamy, chocolatey, and the perfect amount of sweetness. Definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're looking for a cheap decent burger and fries! They're open until 2am so it's perfect if you're looking for a late night snack too. read more

Dick's Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Finally a place in town that opens after midnight! We did not try the burgers or fries but only one midnight run - Ice cream! We loved the Vanilla Sundae topped with Butterscotch. The Butterscotch was a beautiful, delicious Caramel topped over Vanilla Ice cream. read more

We finally made it to Dick's in Bellevue today. Ordered a Dick's Special burger, but somehow ended up with a deluxe (oops, hope hubs picked up the right order). Also ordered fries (of course ) and a chocolate shake. Definitely a classic Dick's meal!! It's been years since we've been to Dicks, though it was definitely a late night stop during my UW days. Have to say it definitely hit the spot. The fries were amazing, and burger and shake were good too. So a belated welcome to the Eastside Dicks!!! So glad you opened on this side of the bridge read more

Dick's Drive-In - Dick's Deluxe, fries & chocolate shake - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

A nostalgic burger place. Walk up to outdoor counter to order. It is located toward the back of Crossroads mall. Big Red sign so easy to find. Got the deluxe plus fries ($10). It was ok. I prefer In n Out burger in California. 20 cent extra for onions and 20 cent for ketchup. No line when I went. It is only order at the outdoor counter, no drive through. Plenty of mall parking and since it is toward the back by itself, it was easy to park. Bag was greasy from the fries kind of place. read more

Consistent food and hasn't dropped in quality at all. Overall a solid burger and good ice cream

I didn't realize that there was a location over in this area! Excellent service as always, clean location and fast service!

So my friend was like "Do you want some dicks in your mouth?" I was a little taken aback, so I asked what kind. "Juicy and meaty!" They replied. I asked how long it would take. "Super fast, you arrive, and in less than 5 minutes you'll have dicks in your mouth!" I agreed, and soon enough, I had dicks in my mouth - a Deluxe, no less. It was a first for me, but I have to say I enjoyed the experience. It's a pretty tasty fast-food burger. Fries aren't bad either. read more

Dick's Drive-In - Deluxe dicks burger. - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Food was mid fry's where soggy it's a glorified McDonald's with a longer line i expected more from this place im from Los Angeles and every one told me to hit dicks when I went to Seattle and I was highly disappointed where's a in -n-out when you need one ..... much rather go to burger master read more

No matter what time of the day or day of the week, there would always be a line. I decided to stop by for their 69th anniversary that brought back 19-cent burgers from 1954. The burger menu is simple, consisting of Dick's Deluxe ($4.85), Dick's Special ($2.95), Cheeseburger ($2.75), Cheeseburger Plain ($2.60), Hamburger ($2.30), and Hamburger Plain ($2.20). The plain versions are a tad cheaper as ketchup and mustard are not included. Both the Deluxe and Special have mayonnaise instead. Condiments such as onions, ketchup, and tartar are sold separately for $0.20. ----- Cheeseburger: one patty, cheese, ketchup, mustard ($2.75). Actually better than I was expecting. It was fresh with a well-cooked patty and a light bite without any greasiness. Cheese was nicely melted. The size is small but cost is equally inexpensive. ----- Orders are placed up front at the counter where there are six windows. Four were open Wednesday morning, making the lines go rather quickly. The speed of the line depends on the people in front of you as orders are fulfilled during payment time instead of an order number system. This location is in Crossroads Bellevue and has abundant parking spaces. read more

Dick's Drive-In - Cheeseburger: one patty, cheese, ketchup, mustard ($2.75). - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

I'm sorry, I know Dick's is a Seattle area novelty, but the food is really just subpar. Dry tasteless burgers, soggy oily fries - I just don't get why there's such a big following out here. It was so bad that I didn't bother taking any pictures. Maybe this location isn't as good as the original, but really had me questioning why I didn't just go to McDonald's. The milkshake was decent, but everything else including the service was forgettable. Not sure why there has ever been a comparison between Dick's and In-N-Out... they're not in the same league. Thoroughly disappointed and definitely don't need to come back. read more

Whenever I come by Seattle I always have to come by and try Dick's burgers as its their staple, while in CA we have our burger joint The place is huge and looks very clean and the workers are quick with service. I got the deluxe with french fries. I still think its strange to charge for ketchup and you bet I didn't pay extra for ketchup. The burger itself is OK, better than other common fast-food spots. The fries were the most soggiest fries I've had. Overall its OK and a bit pricey for what you get, if I lived in the area I wouldn't come back, but since I don't i don't mind trying it out each time and hopefully it will eventually change my mind. read more

Found a piece of plastic or some foreign object in my milkshake. Not sure how that happens but put a bad taste in my mouth (literally). read more

Dick's Drive-In - Found a piece of plastic or something in my milkshake. So gross - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Came in to check out the hype. Came away disappointed. Location was clean and well presented, and the service was fast and accurate. My Deluxe Burger was OK; nothing special. Fries were the big disappointment. Couldn't believe fries could be both overcooked, and limp and soggy; but there they were. Completely unappetizing and I was unable to eat even half of them. Dick's will be a good place to grab a quick burger when I'm hungry and there's nothing else nearby, but I don't consider Dick's a destination restaurant. I'm not going to be going out of my way to visit again. And when I do visit again I'm definitely skipping the fries. read more

Cost for the fries is not worth it. Loved the hot fudge Sunday topping was actually hot- had it with the Kona coffee ice cream. The deluxe burger was not bad. Really enjoyed how fresh the bun was and the pickle flavor. Quick service. Clean parking. read more

Visited this Dick's Drive-In location in Crossroads, and after waiting in one of the lines, I arrived at the window and ordered my burger and fries. I paid, then was told to wait for my food. I watched as he then proceeded to take several orders from people who were in line behind me. Every time he proceeded to pack an order and head back to the window, I thought it was mine, and tried to pick it up, but apparently it was for the person who had just ordered and I was told to keep waiting. I wondered what was happening in confusion, as apparently hamburgers and fries were immediately available for everyone except for me. After 4 more orders were served at that window, I finally got my food, but I couldn't help but wonder why I had to wait 4 times longer than any other customer. In terms of the food, it was okay, but not notable, burgers were small and the fries were too greasy and soggy. read more

Good burgers and affordable pricing! The line can be long at times but moves quick. The staff is very efficient at getting the food ready in a fast past. One burger is definitely not filling enough though make sure to get 3-4 read more

Their limp fries were the worst I've ever had. Burgers taste like McDonald's but slightly cheaper. Shakes are respectable and a decent value. Walk up only, plenty of parking at Crossroads. read more

I do love my McDonald's, but whenever I'm in Seattle or neighboring areas, I make sure to go to Dick's. During the Labor Day weekend, I found myself at Bellevue for the first time. I saw that there was a Dick's at Crossroads, so that's where I went for lunch. Upon my arrival, I parked the car and walked up to the window to place my order. Even though it was just one person ahead of me, they actually opened up a second window for me. I ordered the usual, 2 Dick's Deluxe with everything and a chocolate shake. I took the food back to my car to enjoy. Don't go to Dick's expecting a gourmet burger that'll blow your socks off. They just serve a unique tasting, old-fashioned, and still affordable burger. read more

I can't go to the Seattle area without getting Dicks! It's perfect for late night munchies on the way home. There's always a line, but it's so fast! I always get my order before I even finish paying! The strawberry milkshake is my favorite!! Most are outdoor service, thankfully they have bathrooms. read more

I feel a lot safer coming to Dick's here than any of their other location in Seattle, this is located in parking lot of Crossroads Mall where it's very easy to get to and well...park. I wish they would have a drive thru to avoid getting out in the rain, but that would take away from the experience of being a drive in. Menu is very simple, you have a few burger choices which really the only difference is number of patty that you want and with or without cheese, taste is the same, fries, and shakes. Now, it's not on the same tier as In N Out or Shake Shack to compare, but I still come here because it's a local chain and I know Dick's pay their employees very well for fast food and has programs to help with getting scholarships. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:) read more

Dick's Drive-In - My meal was under $10. Love, @eatoutthao - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Finally an Eastside location for this lazy to travel like me. Sometimes the lines are barely there, but when they're understaffed, you're waiting at least 15+ minutes. Having not grown up with this, the burger taste has grown on me slowly over time. I've had occasions where the fries are crisp, and other times annoyingly limp (huge pet peeve). The cheap milkshakes feel like sweet, tasteless calories to me, without making me crave more. The convenient location with ample Crossroads Mall parking and cheap prices for a meal on the go will keep me coming back at least. read more

Dick's Drive-In - Deluxe - Burgers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

This place is like a magnet. It just draws in customers to line up to order. Unfortunately, I am disappointed that this place is just OK. The good: - The line moves fast and it doesn't take long to get your order right away (actually, not sure if this is a good thing). - Great value ($2 for a burger!) The bad: - The burger patties are rather dry and tasteless (if you want char-broiled/grilled patties you should look elsewhere). - The fries are soggy and appears to be over-cooked (i.e. browned). - The strawberry milkshake was nasty (artificial coloring that looked more orange than red/pink w/ zero flavors). The worst strawberry milkshake ever. - - The presentation with the milkshake was messy (chocolate all over strawberry milkshake cup/lid...etc). read more

Uh.. if you haven't been to one in seattle you're either new or live under a large boulder. Anyhow. it's in the back of the crossroads mall, between the theater and the Michael's entrance. Enter off of nE if coming from the south or off of 148th.. Don't park in the front of the mall as it's probably closed and you've had a few to drink. From 148th, head to the theater and take a right. Anyhow, it's nicer than the original Capital Hill and University locations. The clientele are either Microsoft / Amazon.com millennials, kids from the eastside high schools whose parents don't want the driving into seattle, Kent or Lynnwood or UW Alumni who now live on the Eastside. The mall is nice because it has tons of free, litter and homeless free parking. read more

So nice to have an eastside location that's 10 minutes from my door step to grab eight cheeseburgers, a Dick's Deluxe and two order of the best fresh cut fries in town! In a time where the high cost of other burger spots (did I say Golden Arches? Lol) just aren't worth my time, it's very nice to know you can still go here and get an inexpensive well made burger! read more

Stopped by Dick's after dinner with friends to get some dairy dessert and it lived up to the hype! We got a Strawberry Milkshake, Single Maple Nut Cone, and a Double Mint Chocolate Chip Rocky Road Cone between the three of us and it was really tasty for the price point. Would come again for the ice cream (I'm not personally a shake person) and of course lightning fast service! read more

The food is what you would expect for a cheap eat, so no complaints. The service is always excellent, and the cashier was very friendly. The ambiance is pure local, and I always enjoy feeling the authenticity of a truly local place, and so Dicks is always a nice stop every once in awhile. It just feels good to be there. This one is not stand alone, so a star off for that, but it is next to the climbing gym, so it is a cheap after workout treat :) read more

Much safer location than the one in Seattle and much cleaner! This Dick's is located in the shopping center of Crossroads Mall. There is a lot of parking spaces and it is well lit. There are no seats available to eat there. It's more of an order counter and restrooms are available. The menu is small and they have cheeseburgers, fries, shakes, and ice-cream. I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and Vanilla cone. The food was overall good and hit the spot for a fast food cheeseburger. I loved that the food was not greasy. I really liked my cheeseburger and would go here for a quick bite to eat instead of McDonalds. read more

Only reason is not 5 stars is because they forgot one of our burgers. The fries are so soft and I love it!! Best fries ever!!! Burger is a burger but it's quick! If you're looking for really really fast food, this place is awesome! read more

If you are looking for a quick, cheap, and decent burger, then this is the place to go to! Dicks is always consistent in their quality, fast service, and cheap food. The fries are very yummy and fresh, way better than In n Out fries. Overall, for the price and quality, this is my go-to place for fast food in Washington. read more

Came here at 6pm on a Saturday. Minimal lines and plenty of parking. Picture if Five Guys and In-n-Out had a baby. Five Guys burger and In-n-Out fries (the bad parts of each). The reason I'd go again is because it's cheap and easy to eat. Pros: -fast -tastes good enough -inexpensive Cons: -have to pay for sides of ketchup -fries are soft and overcooked -lettuce is limp -bun is bigger than the burger -no seating or drive thru trays, so you basically walk to get your food then eat it from a bag in your car or take it home. read more

Yay for this "new" location! Eastside has one now. Burgers are as tasty as their Seattle's original location. I like yhey have a simple easy menu. Burgers are not huge and are easy to have :) Shakes are better! Quick stop. I haven't seen any big lines at any location. Like they have different cashiers. I have found easy parking infront of it. What I would like is them coming to your car to be a real drive in or old burger spot. But it isn't that difficult getting off your car unless you have a baby. Service is friendly and fast :) like you can see it's clean. read more

Decided to try this place, but when we got there the lines were massive. Normally not a problem, it appeared they were a fast establishment. But I couldn't have been more wrong. The lines didn't move an inch over a 30 minute period. Literally. We started on the curb, and ended on the curb. So we went somewhere else for an actual quick bite. read more

Update: I've been there several times since my review. I now always order hamburgers for myself, no cheese. I do like them better without the cheese-whiz. I mean, cheese. Twice now, they've told me they were out of hamburgers made with ketchup and mustard, but did have some ready that were plain with no condiments. They asked if I wanted the plain ones or to wait for more to be made with the condiments. In both cases I ordered the plain ones. But I have to wonder, would it really be that much of a disruption of their process to splash the ketchup and mustard on the plain ones for me? That's the only difference. I hope they're saving a lot of labor dollars not being willing to do that. Their shakes are really good. It's tempting to go just for one of those. read more

This is kind of "get what you pay for" experience. We got orders super fast and it was super cheap. Fries were soggy and burger was OK for price. I think you're going more for the greasy charm than the food. read more
