    I'd say Quarter Chute Cafe qualifies as a "hidden gem." I lived nearby for years before I heard of this place and, the first time I looked for it, I was a little confused. It is located on the site of Emerald Downs, not in the large building you might associate with the racecourse but in a smaller building about a quarter mile north. When you walk in, there are signs that might make you think you're in the wrong place (signs for parking permits or horse owners licenses), but walk straight back and hang a right when you're almost all the way to the back door, and you'll see the double doors to enter the cafe. I come from a small town, and restaurants like this are pretty standard - you walk up to a counter and order, you carry a tray to grab your drinks and any small items (like a pastry or a piece of fruit), pay at the cashier, get a number for your table, and they'll bring your hot food out to you. The food is pretty basic but plentiful. For a small place, there are quite a few options, and I believe breakfast is available all day. My favorite menu item is the chili omelet. The fries are crispy. My mom loved her pancakes. The seating area is large (there is even a pool table!) but I'd recommend a seat near a window. The stars of the show here are the horses! If you have a kid, who is into horses, they will have a blast. Depending on the time of day, you'll likely see horses walking back and forth from their stables and practice areas out to the track. If you have a husband who is into betting on horses, he will have a blast too, checking out all of the horse racing memorabilia throughout the restaurant. You may even see jockeys eating their meals or have the opportunity to strike up a conversation with a trainer or owner. Enjoy your meal and peruse the daily racing form. Now you've had the first glimpse of the horses and you're ready to go place your bets with a good meal in your belly!

    Only place in Washington where you can get great food while watching race horses go to and from the race track for their morning exercise.

    Is this place closed? We went today and it wasn't open

    They posted on FB a few days ago and haven't mentioned closing. Are you sure you were in the right place? Have you been there before?

I'm generally a latte person, so I went with the Matcha Pandan, and I thought it was pretty good! Most of my family was specifically craving ice cream, though, so they went for the soft serve. They have a few different drinks and desserts to choose from, making it a convenient place when everyone wants something a little different. My biggest gripe is the space (really, the lack thereof). We were a party of seven, and Cafe Seoul is extremely small and cramped inside. Seating is very limited, and we couldn't really sit together until some people left and others were kind enough to share or give up chairs. There were also a few students hanging out when we visited, so I definitely wouldn't count on this being a comfortable sit-down spot if you're coming with a larger group. The layout doesn't help much either. The menu and some of the seating are awkwardly positioned near the bathroom, and at certain points you're basically squeezing past people just to get around. For a quick drink or dessert, it's manageable, but I wouldn't personally choose this as somewhere to settle in and hang out for a long time with a big party. If you manage to snag enough seats, consider yourself lucky. Service was okay. It took a while for everyone's orders to come out, and unfortunately one of ours was completely missed. We eventually realized it hadn't even been included in the original transaction, so we had to go back up and pay for it separately. Nothing that ruined the night, but between that and the wait, service wasn't necessarily a highlight either. Cafe Seoul gets the job done and meets standard expectations. My Matcha Pandan was tasty, my family got their late-night soft serve fix, and being open later than your average coffee shop is a bonus. I wouldn't go significantly out of my way for it, but if I'm ever back in Federal Way and craving a late-night latte or dessert, I'd consider stopping by again.

We ordered the chicken fried steak, and sausage, eggs, and toast, and let me tell you, those pancakes were the best! They were golden and crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive, always smiling and making sure we had everything we needed. The service was a bit slow, but I think it's because there's only one cook and two other staff members who help wait on tables. Despite the wait, the food was plentiful and delicious. I'll definitely be returning, especially for those pancakes!

I had to open up this app and look at the photo of the sign to figure out where it was in the plaza. I do plan on going back to this place more often. I also do like that. They have real early hours where they open up at seven in the morning. I think I might even go back and try lunch there one of these days soon because their sandwich menu looked pretty decent.

    I've been to other OBC locations in Seattle and Woodinville…read more However, this location made me question their food safety practices. Firstly, the inside was clean and welcoming. There was one employee working, but it did not look very busy inside. We ordered 4 dubai chewy cookies, 1 taro croffle, 1 small galaxy ade, and 1 large taro/oreo smoothie. Our total came out to around $60. Dubai chewy cookies were very tasty, I am a huge fan of dubai chocolates. My galaxy ade tasted very watered down, barely any grape flavor, and little to none carbonation. The taro/oreo smoothie was decent. The basque cheescake was flavorful. The taro croffle was actually very good, better compared to the other locations. My main concern was the fact that I found some sort of hair in my croffle. We had already eaten some of the croffle and we brought it up to the employee. He told us it is a sugar strand and showed us an example. Yet, when I pulled the strand out of the croffle, it was more attached to the taro cream and it had no similar texture to the sugar strand. The sugar strand should melt and break easily but this strand did not, it was also more like a white-ish color. I'm thinking it was maybe a pet hair. The employee was very friendly about it and made us a new croffle free of charge.
