Visiting from out of state and we had a late flight in to Seattle! Our cousin took us here and man it really hit the spot! Ordered the Dick's deluxe with a side of fried around 11:30PM and service was quick! You have to go up to the register to order. Food was delicious and really hit the spot! read more

This is a very different kind of burger joint. We noticed right away that there are no tables in the whole place. So odd. There were bar stools and bar style tables along the edges. Bizarre. We took a gander at the menu and it's very minimal, similar to In N Out (Burgers, fries, shakes, etc). The prices are very reasonable for the area. Here are some things that are unreasonable: * No substitutions, changes, or requests are allowed. One in our group asked for no mayonnaise. He was very abruptly shut down. But someone else in our group asked for no cheese and for some reason they were okay with that. * Most of us ordered the "deluxe" cheeseburger meal with a shake. The portion sizes are super, extra small. Like comically tiny, as if we had ordered the junior kids meal. The drink, shake, burger, and fries were very Junior. But all the food tasted good One in our group came up with a phrase after we left that felt pretty fitting of our experience there. "We done got SHAKE SHACKED up in here!" Meaning, for what you pay at Shake Shack, they give you pretty small portions. Although, Dick's gives you even smaller portion than they do. read more

Seattle-ians, as an Angelino, I didn't want to step on any toes, yet here I am. I think we need to clear things up: Dick's IS NOT your version of In-N-Out. I repeat: Dick's IS NOT your version of In-N-Out. Those two words should NEVER be put in the same sentence, and here is why. Considering Dick's has been labeled a Seattle staple, and its prices were incomparable to other food spots, choosing to go here was a no brainer. As we were ordering, we come to find out that modifications aren't allowed on the burgers, which was quite disappointing because there isn't much on the burgers to begin with. That leads us to our first brick on the wall between Dicks and In-N-Out. When I open my burger from In-N-Out angels are singing and my burger is BUSTING with visuals and delectable flavor. My Cheeseburger and my mom's Dick's Special audibly "womp womped" when we opened them. It was just sad. Our second brick relates to taste. It was the definition of "alright". We definitely got what we paid for. Was it as magnificent on the tastebuds as an In-N-Out burger? No. Not even close to it. But I was relatively satisfied after my meal. The fries were probably the star of the show, but I didn't have any ranch, BBQ sauce, or any sort of semi-thick flavored liquid to dip them into, so still disappointing. Our final brick is placed due to portion sizes. After an In-N-Out burger and fries I feel completely satisfied. Not in a "I feel like I gained 10 pounds but it was worth it!" kind of way, but a "Wow! I'm full, but don't feel a metaphorical or literal heaviness accompanying that satisfying feeling!" way. Even though after the Dick's burger I didn't feel heavy, I could practically hear it drop into my stomach juices because of how small it was. It just wasn't enough food. What I want all readers to take away from this review is that NOTHING can compare to the glory of an In-N-Out burger. If anyone tells you otherwise...all I have to say is keep your friends close and your enemies closer. read more

Get drunk, get Dick's. I grew up on this place and it's definitely a local favorite. Their fries are always a salty sopping greasy mess and I absolutely love it. The burgers are small and mushy but always fill you up perfectly. The line up to the window can be long, but you get your food within a minute of ordering. Not sure if Dick's lives up to market price now but it's an addiction that I have to feed every time I visit home. read more

Burger is unique to the area and has a distinctive taste. Fries are cut fresh everyday. The milk shakes are amazing. The service is second to none. One of the most consistent fast food joints I've been to. This particular location featured Sir Mix a Lot and crew back in the late 80s. It looks for the most part the same. Just walk up and order. They have places to stand and eat directly up front read more

Dick's Drive In is an absolute Seattle staple and one of my go to spots for a late night treat. You really cannot beat the prices, especially these days. The burgers are solid and consistent every time, simple, no frills, and exactly what you are craving after a long day or night. I especially love their greasy fresh cut fries. They are perfectly salty and hit that classic drive in vibe. This time I also tried a huckleberry ice cream cone and it was delicious, sweet, a little tangy, and a great finish to the meal. Just do not forget, it is 5 cents for ketchup! Very on brand and honestly part of the charm. It is not gourmet, but that is not the point. It is affordable, nostalgic, and reliably satisfying. Definitely a Seattle classic for a reason. read more

Dicks Drive In is always a good spot to grab a quick bite to eat. I always order a Cheeseburger and Fries, along with the Tartar Sauce. The Customer Service is Good. You can eat outside, there isn't any seating inside or out but there is a Table Top you can stand and eat at. I always eat in my car. Parking is OK, I mean I always find parking up front, Diners come and go so fast. They are having a Halloween special if your child is 13 and younger of you Trick or Treat in costume you get a Free Cheeseburger. read more

Cheap, dependable, and a staple of Seattle. Never been during the wee hours of the night, but both times I visited this during off-peak hours were quite empty. Friendly staff and security posted up. Cap Hill location definitely gets rowdier during weekend nights. Don't expect the world's greatest burger, but do expect to get your cheap and greasy meal itch scratched. read more

Stuck at a hotel with no access to food, I reacquainted myself with DoorDash, and found this option 0.7 miles from Virginia Mason. I loved Dick's Drive-In as a kid, but as an adult, the burgers are just average. I had a strawberry milkshake, and my mom had a chocolate milkshake. We both thought they were just kind of average. The fries, however, were spectacular! I can see why there's a limit of 15 orders of fries per DoorDash order. Fifteen seems excessive, until you taste them. I wanted a Special with cheese, but that wasn't an option, so I got a Special and a cheeseburger. I also got onion cups and ketchup and tartar sauce cups. The tartar sauce is weird. It's kind of blah. I definitely recommend the onion cups, though. read more

Quick service, communicative employees, great deluxe burger! (Far worth the upgrade from the cheese burger).

If you're looking for that old school, simple, straightforward burger joint, check out Dick's. I was told this place was popular but didn't realize how much until I saw the line to place your order. Long line but moved pretty quick. Burgers, fries, shakes. Keep it simple. The burgers are a bit smaller but the flavor is great! Can easily eat more than a few. I was visiting family and they wanted me to check this place out. To quote them, "let's go grab a bag of Dick's". read more

I'm a bit disappointed by this historic burger chain... I mean it's super fast and convenient but absolutely underwhelming in terms of taste and presentation. I had a Dick's Deluxe and I was immediately given one that was ready, Mc Donald's style. I was not expecting it, I thought they'd make it to order. The patties were very small and the overall look was really sad. And no bacon wtf! Ultimately the taste was ok, but boy was it an underwhelming experience... I guess it's my fault, I had different expectations. I was thinking something like Burgermaster. To be fair though, it's dirt cheap, so maybe I have to recalibrate my assessment. read more

Best bang for your buck if you watch to scratch the burger, fries, and shake itch. The service has always been fast even again busy times likely because most things are preprepared. Stores often have a bar space to stand if you want to eat there but we often take it home. Of the three, burger, fries, and shake Id say the basic burger is most lacking as its small with few toppings so maybe not the place if you're a burger connoisseur. Ill definitely be back from time to time read more

The burgers were just okay. I think the deluxe for almost $6 is a bit expensive considering you could get great $9.99 hamburger and fry deals from legit restaurants. I couldn't believe that two burgers, one fry order and a split shake cost almost $30. What?! This is supposed to be a poor-man-wallet-saving meal, not the opposite! I saw a lot of people come up to the kiosk during the lunch hour and I really don't get the hype. I mean the burgers alright. Fries taste burnt and the shake is just an average shake. Price could be lower. read more

A solid, cheap little burger chain that's serving up STELLAR shakes (seriously the vanilla shake is heavenly), good little burgers, and homemade fries. There is nothing fancy about Dicks. But it doesn't claim to be. They do a few things really well done. And do it quickly. There's a ton of people here getting food for a reason. Cheap eats done well. I'm glad my Seattle local friend said we had to stop by! read more

What is it that makes this place iconic? I have had better tasting food elsewhere. There was nothing good or even remotely iconic about this place. If you are standing by these undercooked limp oily fries and the tartar sauce burger then you're clearly doing something special to market yourself as iconic. I cannot believe people stood in long lines waiting for this mess of a meal. read more

A Seattle classic. I lived behind this location for close to a decade. I've easily eaten thousands of their burgers and I would eat a thousand more. They are the perfect ratio of meat to bun and well priced. They also treat their employees extremely well with competitive pay and benefits including tuition. This is the type of local business people should be supporting. read more

My hot take is that Dick's is better than In-N-Out. This Dick's is a prime location for a late night snack after a night of drinking or clubbing. If you're coming here, you know what you're getting yourself into. The place is a bit sketchy but the food is still good and the service is fast. read more

Pricing is excellent. Seattle is so expensive and traveling here is even more so, so I enjoyed having a burger at a reasonable price. Food itself was pretty good. The fries were nice and fresh, kinda similar to Five Guys. The burger was great. The meat tastes fresh and the burger itself comes together. I asked for no pickles but it seems like they pre make a batch of them so you can't take it off. It honestly wasn't too crazy because they tasted more like onions. Service was iffy. When ordering, after every item was said, the worker would said "okay" and the total. I had to say I'm not done and say the next thing I wanted. It wasn't crazy busy and they have the burgers on standby so I didn't get the rush. The old timey look of the place was cool! However, I know this isn't them but there was someone drumming outside the restaurant... It was extremely hard to hear the girl on the other side and I had to semi yell the order. It was annoying and loud. I can't imagine how frustrating it would be to stay there and eat. Overall, if you only care about getting in and out quickly, having a decent burger with great prices, you'll enjoy this place! read more

I heard that Dick's was Seattle's version of In-N-Out so I had to check it out. I went for the first time last year when I was visiting Seattle and really loved it for the quality, service, and price point. The burger is pretty simple and I used to compare it to McDonald's and similar chains due to the price point, and in comparison to those chains, Dick's was significantly better. I'm usually not a fan of pickles but because they chop it up here and put it with a sauce, it actually enhanced the taste of the burger for me. The quality of the meat is also good as well. Another thing that I love is how Dick's is open really late and how quick the service here is. My major gripe with Dick's now is that when I came back to Seattle this year, I noticed that the prices for everything went up significantly and is more in line with the price of an In-N-Out burger. Although Dick's is enjoyable, I don't think it comes anywhere close to In-N-Out in terms of taste and quality and I don't think that the price justifies what you're getting anymore. While I unfortunately used to love coming here, I'd say that it's a pass for me now given the prices. read more

My friend and I were craving a burger and him being the local, he suggested Dick's. I was a little taken aback that there was no seating, but that's totally fair considering a deluxe burger was less than $6. For that $6, you get a loaded double patty burger, which looks a hell lot better than what I've gotten from McDonald's. read more

If you need a meal, only have $10 in a mixture of small bills and coins, I suggest eating the money. Both are hard to choke down and leave you still hungry.

Oh and P.S. there is no "Drive In" at this location of Dick's Drive-In. ): read more

Dick's burger in WA is like In&Out in CA, it's a stable, decent, and cheap place to go for college kids. You either like them a lot or you don't. Personally, I don't like the burger but when you're ran out of money and hungry, this would be the place for me to go when I moved to Seattle decades ago...I like they shake and fries a lot. Now i introduced to my kid when we visited Seattle and he likes it too (behind In&Out of course). Always lines here, since college campus is nearby and its fast service, you ordered and they get the foods and give it to you right away, unless it ran out...sure you have to pay xtra for small stuff but it less then a dollar and the prices are fairly still cheap after all. Always stop by for a fries and shake when I visit, it's a must!!! read more

TLDR: Checks the box for overhyped, good fries, okay burger, overly sweet shakes. Ended up eating a second dinner elsewhere out of dissatisfaction. - - - - - - My Seattle friends hailed Dick's Drive-In as the In-N-Out equivalent, but I've found it quite different. I didn't quite see a drive-thru, but there was ample parking for quick bites (20 min) in their small lot. I ordered a deluxe with fries and a strawberry shake. The first thing I noticed was how quick order pickup was - literally instant, er within 10 seconds. The deluxe was a classic burger - by no means bad - dominated with flavors of cheese and mustard. The bun was a classic hamburger bun with no frills; overall, it felt like eating a plain hamburger drowned in cheese and mustard - meh. The fries were nice, though there was a 20 cent cost for sauce. I went with the tartar which also had a slight mustard-y taste. The fries were a limp texture but clean and had a slightly crip texture. They were not the largest portions but a nice snack. The strawberry shake, unfortunately, was over the top sweet and had to be tossed. If there was a way to drink strawberry flavored heavy cream with spoonfuls of sugar, this might be it. read more

Ambience. C Service. A Food. D Price. C Having lived in Seattle 38 years ...never understood the HYPE!!! Hmm DICK's Burger Day est. 1954 $.19 opening day prices My opinion... One of the WORST place for burgers and fries! I've tried them 3 separate decades and still bleh. Why there are lengthy lines for this 70+ year institution boggles my mind. You either love them VS. you either hate them. Service is friendly and great today at 3 pm. Line wasn't as long and three windows were open. So waiting wasn't long to order or get food. Server was nice to let me order HOT fries with out salt. This would be your place if you like 1/8 lukewarm meat patty on plain grilled bun (ketchup cost $.30 more) and sometime HOT fresh cut fried mushy limp greasy string fries. Two more days for trying their burger for 1954 opening prices at $.19 !!!... Unfortunately, I am NOT a FaN!!! read more

Landed in Seattle after midnight, and needed some quick grub with my friends. This place came through. Open late and shockingly empty when we arrived, which meant no lines and instant satisfaction. The menu is super wallet-friendly - a whole meal is under ~$12, which feels rare these days. But don't let the price fool you: burgers, fries and shakes all hit the spot. Simple, classic, and tasty for a cheap meal. If you're looking for a fast, affordable bite after hours, this place absolutely delivers. read more
