    Consistent, delicious food. Yummy chocolate shakes and fries. Quick service. Clean. Good people watching if you want to eat in your car.

    I wanted something quick and easy to eat on my ride back home, so we stopped by here. I got two Cheeseburgers and fries and my bf got his usual two Dick's Deluxes and fries. It was a Friday night, and was pretty packed. But there were many lines open, and we got in and out very quickly. I ate the one Cheeseburger with my side onions on the ride home, and was satisfied. I put the fries in the air fryer when I got home (I like crispy fries).

    Dick's is a Seattle staple and has multiple locations across Seattle. This location is in Lake City off of Lake City Way NE. There's no seating so most people either eat in their cars or take it to go. I got the Dick's deluxe, fries, and a strawberry shake. Normally I like the burger but this was just okay. The portion of fries was less than I've had and was lukewarm at best. The shake could've had more strawberry flavor. I've had better food at other Dick's locations and the food I had here was just okay. It also doesn't help that this location doesn't have seating.

    Not busy at all when we arrived, but while we were ordering, people started to walk in & it got busy. Pricing is very very cheap for the quality of food you get, but apparently they are trying to keep it at that price, since they've been in business. The cashier was very friendly & happy to answer any questions we had regarding the menu. They only serve burgers, so if you are looking for a "chicken" vegy meal, this is not the place for you, unless all you want is fries. They offer tartar sauce for dipping your fries. Not the whole fish & chips tartar sauce, it's a nice flavor of mayo & relish kinda dip. A ton of parking & there's not sitting unless you're eating in your car. This is a burger joint to visit if you're in Seattle. A must try

    A really great burger joint that has the simplest menu, great prices, and fast service! The burgers are so good, I really like the cheeseburger. The fries are pretty traditional potato fries. If you catch their food truck out and about be sure to grab yourself a burger. The lake city location today wasn't packed and we were able to get in and out. This place can get packed! Lines can form in the late evening hours and I can see why, the food is delicious.

    Don't get me wrong, Dick's is very good most of the time except this morning January 1st, 2025 around 10:30 AM. I went there to pick up (2) specials, 1 cheese and (2) fries. Everything tasted fine except for them fries. Either Dick's change their supplier again Or these fries are from last night. My usual fries from Dick's are limpy and kinda greasy. But what I have aren't even greasy. Almost like some of them store brand fries. Texture also different. Kinda weird.

    Loaded fries, various deluxes, specials and hamburgers topped with strawberriy and vanilla shakes.

    Can't go wrong with the iconic Seattle burger joint. We had a massive family to feed and they did well to pack it in a to go box to preserve the wholeness of each burger. I personally like a little more lights to brighten up the place and to keep it safe at night but this may be a personal note. Parking was hard to get in and out of compared to other locations.

    The disgusting Plain Cheese burgers that were not supposed to be Plain.

    Not sure what the situation was today with this location but this was hands down the worst experience I've ever had at a Dicks. I'll preface this review with - Dicks is not a gourmet fancy burger place. They don't take customizations. They are basic and standard and consistent and perfectly yummy. I've previously rated other locations 5 stars. So I know what I'm in for when I go to Dicks. That said - I went and ordered 10 Cheese and 1 Deluxe today. They didn't have any Cheese and offered me some random combination of Plain Cheese and hamburgers or to wait without any time frame. I chose to just wait. Fine. Whatever. I wait. I get the food. I leave. I get almost home and find they gave me 10 PLAIN Cheese. PLAIN cheese. Meaning no ketchup/mustard. Considering I had turned down Plain Cheese AND WAITED for (regular) Cheese - and the fact this is a place that charges for additional ketchup/mustard - they sure better refund me. I'll update this review if I hear back from them. Otherwise I won't be back to this location.

    I understand the history of this place in Seattle's culture, but I can't help to think it is the most average burger I've eaten. Of course you'd come here for cheap prices and fresh beef patties, but there's nothing too memorable in taste to make me crave it again. Note: They don't allow burger customizations. I'm not a pickle person, but it was tolerable as mixed in their "tartar" sauce. Not a personal fan of limp fries in general, but again it's cheap, salty and freshly made. The strawberry milkshake was average, I might even say it barely had any flavor aside from the vanilla base. This location has a large enough parking lot. Lines will build up quick, but goes by fast, assuming the person ahead of you isn't obnoxiously ordering 10+ burgers.

    I mean, theoretically, what's there to not like? I need fries and a burger and it's 11pm? Oh look,…read moreFat Shack's open! AND they have deep fried Oreos??? Sign me up. The restaurant itself leaves a lot to be desired, but I'm not asking too much. I believe the owner said he was trying to revamp the place. I hope that the area comes alive in the future years, that should help. Here's the issue though, this is the slowest spot ever. I've waited 30 minutes for fries - FRIES. I don't mind waiting for food, but it should remain reasonable. There were only two or three people working, and one man did tell us this, but I need to be honest - this was on Super Bowl Sunday. No one was able to get anyone a beer from the tap for 40 minutes, the food took forever and it appeared that online orders were being prioritized (which makes sense, you make as you get orders coming in, but that puts your in person customers in an odd and sometimes frustrating position). To be honest, I probably wouldn't have minded as much if I just had some fries to snack on. I didn't mind as much this one time because I was just happy to find a place to watch the Super Bowl Half Time show, but other days, it's a little hard to look past. I wish this business the best, I live too close to not hope for its improvement! Looking forward to updating my review. At the end of the day, if you're hungry, it's late, this is your spot.

After I ordered, they came…read moreout and told me they didn't have any Philly cheesesteak, so they didn't put it on the sandwich. Naturally, I asked, "So you didn't make the sandwich I ordered?" He said, "No, you got the sandwich." I said, "Okay... so did you make the sandwich I ordered or not?" He said yes. I open it up and it's literally two chicken fingers, fries, and honey mustard. No Philly cheesesteak. So I asked, "If you didn't have Philly cheesesteak, why didn't you tell me that when I ordered it?" He said, "I don't know, I can put it on the side if you'd like." I said, "I thought you didn't have any Philly cheesesteak?" He walked away, came back with a side of Philly cheesesteak, and told me to put it on the sandwich myself. For $19, I shouldn't have to assemble my own sandwich -- especially after being told you didn't even have the main ingredient. Just be upfront with customers.

All the…read moreoutdoor tables were full when we arrived at 6, so we put our name on the list for inside and waited about 30 minutes. The oysters were the main draw for me, and they were totally worth the visit. Old Stove serves them with a savory watermelon sauce in addition to a traditional cocktail sauce--eaten together, it's a flavor explosion that I can't quite describe. We also enjoyed the garlic everything fries, which were delicious! We just had to try a flight to sample the brews. There are some really good beers available here, especially the Belgian blonde, citra pale ale, and the stout. I did not really care for the seasonal sour (grapefruit, I think)--to me, it just tasted like a sour and nothing more, but someone with more interest in sour beers would probably enjoy it just fine. Despite the busy night, our server checked on us regularly and was very personable, stopping to chat with us about the local sports scene. There's plenty to look at, inside and out. If you can snag a seat outside, you'll get to enjoy the waterfront. Inside, the decor is industrial but fun. Not sure if this runs all the time, but when we were there, the tvs were playing vintage beer ads, which was quite fun. They also sell some pretty good t-shirt designs. Overall, Old Stove Brewing is the perfect combo of good location, good food, and good beer. Definitely recommend a visit when in the Pike Place area!

They gave us these post cards to write down our individual drinks. FYI - this place requires using your smart phone to scan a QR code for the menu. We ordered 2 apps (salmon dip with pita chips & chips and cheese dip) I ordered fish and chips. Buddy got the meat loaf. Our beer showed up quick. Waiter always checked on us often. Our apps showed up and they were both delicious. Then 5 minutes later our main dish orders showed up. Wasn't too happy with that because we wasted time to taste our beers and snack on the apps. They need to work on their timing. Need at least 10 minutes in between the beer and apps. The food overall is admittedly top notch. Fish and chips FRESH! The fish was juicy and the fried crust was perfection. Pieces were large. They will ask if you want 3 or 4. 3 is enough. If they can work on timing the drinks and food this place would be a 5 out 5, but will deduct a star because of that. The overall vibe of the place was nice. Huge layout with wooden picnic style tables. Outdoor tables if you're lucky to get one. Large tanks to brew beer surrounding the room and a merch table.

I didn't expect much out of these, but they were surprisingly good. The rice is cooked perfectly, sticky and tender, yet each grain is distinctive and almost bouncy, giving great mouthfeel. The musubi seems to be dipped in a small amount of soy sauce, although not enough to cover the entire rice surface. The additional sodium isn't really needed in the first place due to the salty and meaty kick the spam on top gives the handheld snack. It's a classic combination for a good reason! (4/5) For the Food Walk special, they only give a small scoop of mac salad. I'm sure the normal side portion for $5.94 is much larger. The salad is unspectacular but solid. It's a little sweet, a bit peppery, and certainly very creamy. There's a bit of julienned carrot included that isn't particularly crunchy, being soaked in the mayo sauce. The macaroni itself isn't mushy or overcooked, so it still has some texture. (4/5) I don't usually expect much out of food court restaurants, but Aloha Plates definitely surprised me with their quality. It seems like a solid option for Hawaiian.

Perhaps the Lao Burger served there wasn't as juicy and succulent, with perfectly crisp smashed patties as I recalled? Or perhaps Taurus Ox just serves a completely inferior version. I revisited for a Friday late dinner to reach the bottom of things. This was at around 8PM and the place was surprisingly busy, with a fully running kitchen and almost all seats taken. It's a pretty small restaurant to begin with, but since the food comes fast, people don't typically stay too long. By the time our food arrived, a table had cleared up for us. Lao Burger ($18) - This Lao Burger is just as good as my first visit. Absolutely perfectly fried smash patties, completely with lacy, crispy edges that provide texture and an intense caramelized meaty flavor. I've already described the burger in detail in my previous review - what I can say on this visit is that the burger is basically identical, indicating that Ox Burger is consistent with cook and construction. The burger as a whole has the perfect moisture level with plenty of unique funky, umami-full flavors that make each bite a delight. As with my previous review, two things come to mind that detract just a tiny bit from my full enjoyment. Firstly, the burger as a whole is a bit salty for my tastes, necessitating several trips to refill my cup of water Secondly, the piece of sliced pork belly included is kind of vestigial. It seems to be only there to add additional salt, because neither the flavor nor texture are very apparent while eating. (5/5) Deluxe ($15) - This burger is somehow way messier than the Lao to eat. Upon lifting it up, a mess of watery mustard/mayo mix drips onto the plate. I think it might be from the extra moisture in the tomatoes and lettuce. And yet, somehow the bun isn't soggy at all. This burger is otherwise excellent, combing the same picture perfect smash patties as in the Lao, with the classic fixings - American cheese, bacon, pickles, and plenty of veggie mix. (5/5) I'm glad I gave the Lao Burger another chance. It's now one of my favorite burgers in the city. I'll definitely be coming back to Ox Burger for more.

It is pretty small inside, but they've got a great little wooden patio with picnic tables and shade. We opted to sit out here, despite being pestered by wasps. The food was great for all adults involved. Portions of fries are generous and delicious, and come with fancy sauces (none of which appealed to me, but were appreciated by my family). The burgers are really inventive, so we all wanted to try the Lao. It's delicious. I did balk at $18 for just the burger, which is a smash patty (less beef) and I took the cheese, Mayo, and cilantro off. Eighteen dollars! No side, no drink. I might just be living in the past I guess It's really hard to order for kids here, imo. Even my non-picky kid was not about it and the toddler wouldn't try it. Thank goodness for fries, eh? They've got gluten free buns for no upcharge.
