There used to be a Round Table Pizza and a Chinese restaurant. Big hopes for this place, but it came up short. It's not inviting. You order from a kiosk. There is no table seating, but there is a small bar that could hold about 4 people, but it's at the entrance and no one would be comfortable sitting there. I had the club sandwich and it unfortunately ended up being exactly what I expected once I arrived here. It was 95% bread and 5% meat and cheese, there was a single slice of each meat and each cheese. I couldn't even taste the cheese, just the bread and veggies, No question better than any Subway, but I'd take Jersey Mikes over this place any day. I'd probably take a premade sandwich from Metropolitan across the street before coming back here. Not the worst sandwich in the world, but it didn't come close to the hype. These days so many places are a let down that this isn't out of the ordinary, but for anyone that has been eating and expecting quality food for decades, you just expect more from a place like this.

ALso tried the pastrami and corned beef breakfast bagel, which was packed with almost like an omelet tucked inside a bagel. Also got a side of hand made chicken sausage which was okay. Tasted healthy. The one disappointment was the vanilla latte. It tasted more like it came from an automated coffee machine than a traditional espresso machine and lacked the flavor and quality I was expecting. Most things are self-serve here, including finding your own seating, grabbing silverware, getting water, and pouring drip coffee. As we were leaving, a live musician was getting set up to play, Which added a really welcoming atmosphere. The inside is nicely decorated and family friendly, with lots of children's books around to help keep little ones entertained. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but the portions are large. Food tastes good, large portions, cozy atmosphere, and live music, I'd come back again though I'd probably skip the latte next time.

This year the menu was shrimp bisque, shrimp cocktail, crab cakes and scallops. Plus a few Fran's salted caramels as a stocking stuffer. No photos this time. You have to use your imagination.

I'm writing this review to bring awareness to anyone considering employment at this location. Based…read moreon my experience, I would strongly advise thinking carefully before applying. To start, the management at this store has been extremely disappointing. There appears to be a serious lack of organization, communication, and accountability among store leadership. Employee concerns often seem to go unaddressed, and there is little indication that feedback is being taken seriously. The high turnover in having guest service leaders (GSL'particularly among leadership, is concerning and raises questions about the overall work environment. Another major concern is the lack of opportunities for internal advancement. Despite having more than a year of experience with the company, I applied for a leadership position twice and was not selected. Instead, the positions were given to individuals with significantly less experience. While I understand that hiring decisions involve multiple factors, this experience left me feeling that hard work, experience, and a genuine desire to grow within the company are not necessarily recognized or rewarded at this location. The workplace culture is another significant issue. Without naming individuals, I have witnessed behavior that I believe reflects poor leadership, including manipulation, a lack of accountability, and interactions that negatively affect employee morale. Over time, I have seen the front-end team lose several capable and experienced leaders, leaving the department increasingly understaffed. I have also seen coworkers with leadership potential choose to transfer elsewhere. When multiple employees leave or seek opportunities at other locations, it is worth considering whether management and workplace culture are contributing factors. Staffing and turnover are additional concerns, particularly in the front end. Based on what I have experienced, these departments have struggled with consistency and adequate staffing. This creates additional pressure on the employees who remain and contributes to an already frustrating work environment. If you are considering applying here, I encourage you to ask questions about management, staffing, employee retention, and opportunities for advancement before accepting a position. Keep records of workplace concerns, including relevant dates and communications, and familiarize yourself with your rights. If you are a union member, consider speaking with your union representative if you believe an issue needs to be addressed. Ultimately, this review reflects my personal experience and observations. I believe employees deserve respectful leadership, clear communication, fair opportunities for advancement, and a workplace where their concerns are taken seriously. Unfortunately, I have not consistently experienced those things at this location. I hope this review helps prospective employees make a more informed decision before applying. Good luck to anyone considering working here.

Located near the Kirkland waterfront, they are a small-ish eatery with a few tables inside and two-ish outside on nice days. I really wish I like them more. I have tried them twice. We reacted both times with a shoulder-shrug kind of "it's ok", not great, not horrible, either. Their Turkish type of beef and lamb doner meat is the meatier variant. It looks like actual meat, less processed than some Mediterranean doner/gyro meats, but also oilier. We must have arrived during a slow period because our meat pieces were chewier and drier with a deeper brown on most pieces, which mean the meat have been rotating for a longer time, in between orders.

I saw them at the Turkish Festal at the Seattle Center during the summer and had meant to visit. They have a variety of fresh produce, refrigerated, frozen foods, as well as the non-perishables. There is an adjacent cafe space that I wasn't sure if it was open. Since I don't drink strong coffee, I decided not to ask. Otherwise, Turkish coffee is quite renowned for its potent flavor. For this trip, I settled for two new-to-me (brand) sweet treats and a familiar veggie dip. The spicy version is less common (i.e. World Market), so it was a good bonus to find it here. They also sell a collection of Turkish jewelry, ceramics, and Eye of Horus amulets. With the holidays on the way, maybe there are some suitable gifts.

The staff is always very nice and accommodating. The shelves always seem to be well stocked. I'm not the normal PCC customer who gushes about how awesomely fresh, organic, and simply wonderful their products and produce are. At the end of the day, all that cost good money and you will pay more than the average grocery store (but not nearly as much as Whole Foods). The delta adds up quickly. So, what do I gush about? Their deli and their bakery. I *love* their sandwiches and their baked goods. In short, they are restaurant quality without the high end prices. A cookie is $1.19, very affordable for a delicious cookie. They are well regarded for their vegan chocolate chip cookies also. Their sandwiches are about $6.99 or $7.99, cheaper than Panera (yuk) and Homegrown (but they are more complex and very tasty). We have had their Thai beef and tuna in the past. Both are delicious. This time we bought the turkey, provolone flatbread (7.99) and mozzarella focaccia panini (6.99) that we panini'd at home to toast/warm. Both were excellent too! Very worthy buys in these two departments.

I just don't think the people that work in that department are happy to be there. I got screamed at one day when I asked when a fresh chicken will be out and he told that there are still chicken out there with anger when there was only two pieces of dry chicken setting there. Terrible way to talk to customers. I am hoping they can do something about the hot food bar and soup selections soon.

They'll make a smaller Seattle sized version as well for those who don't treat deli as an indulgence of rye and meat piled high. I wish they'd add kreplach to the menu (sorry Vance. I know my litany is old!) but I keep discovering new deliciousness here even after being a regular for nearly 4 years since my recovery from a life threatening illness, that I recovered from in part due to making regular stops here during my post surgical recovery. Just today I had the blintzes for the first time with their in house made cherry compote and sour cream. Amazing. Keep up the amazing work!!! My recommendation for newbies. Get the pastrami on marbled rye with gribenes and mustard. If you're feeling extra indulgent ask for a schmear of chopped liver, if you're keen on said. You won't regret it!
