I got a banana bread slice to bring on the airplane, which was We ordered a Mexican coffee and Hazelnut latte. Both coffees could have had more flavor. For breakfast, we ordered the Chorizo Scramble and French Toast. The French Toast was topped with spiced peaches and a side of whipped cream. It also came with crispy bacon. Visually pleasing and I couldn't wait to dig in. Very delicious with the maple syrup. It wasn't overly sweet which is a plus for me. The Chorizo Scramble has roasted Poblano, Jack Cheese, Chorizo, scrambled eggs, side of potatoes & flour tortillas. Very tasty. The potatoes were so good!

Oh man as someone born and raised in socal you come up here expecting to never taste good Mexican…read moreagain. Thank god for Prado to prove me wrong. I grew up in an area with a lot of great Mexican-American cantina food which is really its own thing and Prado is exactly then with some classic American diner dishes thrown in for good measure. But the tortillas here are fresh, perfect in texture and flavor, and the ultimate canvas to slap their delicious high-quality ingredients in. The tortilla chips also taste freshly made in-house with a light airy crispiness to them that is divine. Which makes it even better when you dip them in their delicious salsa roja or scoop up some of the refried beans and meat like I learned in my decades of training. Some things are better than others, sure, but I haven't had anything bad here either. I think the carnitas were the best, but the carne asada and heuvos rancheros were great as well. They do a decent jamaica (hibiscus tea) and horchata as well! During the day they aren't very busy but seem to be swamped come dinner time. They also have a separate menu for lunch before 3pm so beware, they don't serve chips + salsa before then.

In short, as a Spanish gal, I highly recommend this restaurant. Don't let the location being in a…read moreshopping strip mall stop fool you! THE INSIDE: We were seated quickly. A/C was running high as it was a super humid and hot Saturday. The restaurant is one big open space with large, comfortable booths lining the walls and a selection of tables in the center. This would suit large groups, too. There's a small outdoor patio area with umbrella covered seating. They had World Cup games on and decor to match. THE FOOD: We immediately had warm, thick tortilla chips and house made red salsa on the table. Salsa is on the spicier side, but was absolutely delicious. We had the Cadillac margarita (moderately strong and well mixed), tacos dorado with steak (fried and seasoned perfectly), and corn tacos with birria (melt-in-your-mouth and perfect temp). The bar is its own little mixology section and is very well stocked. SIDE NOTES: We were way too full for dessert, but there were several nice options that all looked and smelled amazing as they passed us. Can't wait to go back when we have emptier stomachs to try more!

It has been one of the biggest things missing for me. Until we found Bistro 76! We came here on a Saturday around 11:30 and it was pretty slow--we were seated immediately. I ordered the classic eggs benedict and my husband ordered the corned beef hash. Both were amazing! They came out perfectly seasoned and super fresh! We really enjoyed the food. We also felt the food was very fairly priced for the quality/amount you get. I also ordered a vanilla oat milk latte which was very tasty! The women working here were so friendly and they wanted to say hi to our baby and chat a bit. Really great service overall. We are already talking about making this our regular brunch spot and will be back soon!

We got the Cuban pork hash, ham hash (from the specials menu), corned beef hash, and breakfast burrito. The potatoes were unique because they were neither crispy but they weren't mushy either and very nicely fluffy inside. Also very well seasoned! The eggs were perfectly done and oozy, the hollandaise sauce was light, more so added for extra creaminess. I'm not usually the biggest fan of hollandaise sauce as I find it sometimes too heavy but this was less rich which was nice. The breakfast burrito was tasty, nice amount of filling. I enjoyed the cubes of ham and how it wasn't overly salty. Definitely eat with hot sauce and some black pepper. I think it would get a little mundane if you were to eat the whole thing yourself but it's not bad. The banana bread donut isn't really a donut. More so a banana bread Bundt cake. It was nice, slightly sweet with what tasted like whipped browned butter.

The ambiance is definitely bright, open, as well ad clean looking. Cozy for sure. Just wish the food was more consistent.

Came in on a Saturday to grab a case of the famous root beer for my home consumption and consume a frothy mug from a root beer keg while I wait. Even more tasty than I expected... Since I was here they offered up an exceptional food menu for which I ordered a steak & cheese dip sandwich & tot's ! Now I could have had fries however tots sounded much more appealing to my palate.... Wow, great sandwich served on a moist fresh savory roll. Veggies were fresh and Sautéed perfectly to accompany the flesh it layered over on the roll. A cup of Au jus came with it for dipping and also 2 slices of pickle... YUMMMMMM Building is broken into general public sections for dining and a 21 & Over section for heavy consumption. Not only did the bar have beer which would is expected for brewery but also a cocktail service also... Staff were amazing and very friendly which is a bonus.

As expected you know I'll be back for my Rootbeer fix but dining is also now added to the future experience. Make this place a destination stop it's worth it...

Rusty Pelican is one of our Edmonds staples! Breakfast or brunch, guaranteed to be easy,…read moreconvenient, and delicious. Street parking only, but if you're open to a walk, downtown Edmonds tends to have ample parking around the area. When busy, they do provide a buzzer that has a short range, but opens up the opportunity of walking around slightly. Items can be a bit pricey, but they're also very filling. Large space, lots of chatter, and friendly service. Number Three Combo Club - we wanted waffles this time but also bacon and sausage. This was the variety pack we desired, though wish it came with both sausage and bacon! Opted for the bacon and it was thick, fatty, and delicious. One waffle cut into the four quadrants, ready to soak up syrup. Simple, but a classic. Chunky Monkey Pancakes - goofy perhaps, but another timeless classic combo of chocolate and bananas. Three chocolate chip pancakes, fluffy and ready to absorb the Nutella drizzle. Could have a few more chocolate chips embedded for a more balanced spread, but the chocolate drizzle helps spread flavor. Bananas for the healthy balance of course.

Hot Dogs in Cars, and Managers Named "Robert" : A Hate Story…read more I have been a regular patron of The Rusty Pelican since I moved to Washington, just shy of 5 years ago. I take visiting loved ones and friends here, and I constantly extol the service and food to anyone who needs a recommendation for a breakfast spot in Edmonds. NEVER. EVER. AGAIN. The manager, Robert, showed sickening behavior. My partner and I were having breakfast out in front, when we noticed that a fellow patron had left their dog in the car on the sidewalk in front of our table. It was 60 degrees out, and completely sunny. The windows were barely cracked, and the dog was panting and straining its neck towards the venting of the window. We called our waiter over, who was incredibly sympathetic and horrified. He went inside to find the customer. We waited a few minutes longer, and then asked a second server to follow up (they were equally horrified and sympathetic). The second server also did not return. My partner went inside to seek help. It was at this point that they encountered Robert. My partner came out a few minutes later and explained what was happening: he had been in the process of denigrating the employees feelings about the matter, telling them to stop bothering customers and (essentially) quit acting like babies. "This isn't Arizona!" he exclaimed. When my partner asked to speak with him and tell him the situation, he was horrendously rude and confrontational, escalating each polite rebuttal with an agitating escalation of rudeness and denigration. My partner calmly explained that in these conditions, a car's interior temperature can rise to above 80 degrees in well under 30 minutes, not including stifling humidity. These conditions can cause an animal to pass out and die within a similar timeframe. At this point, it had been well over 30 minutes since the patron had parked. During all of this, he refused to even address my partner or look them in the eyes. It was absolutely unacceptable, and ultimately embarrassing for a grown man in a PAID CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED POSITION to treat anyone like that. To be clear: the entire staff were incredible. They came out to check on the dog a few times, and tried their best to confront the owner of the dog, but a certain manager was preventing them. They also apologized profusely, and showed a grace that is exemplary and frequently unseen in today's world. We learned several good lessons today: 1. We should have just called animal control right off the bat. The owner isn't going to learn their lesson without legal intervention, or lethal endings. Thankfully they left after about 40 minutes, and the dog seemed to be conscious. 2. I am never going to eat here again, as long as Robert is employed. He should be left in a hot car out front to teach him some perspective. I wouldn't call animal control for him though. 3. I am going to spend the rest of my days around Edmonds telling anyone who will listen this story. To Robert, if you read this: I hope nothing but bad things happen to you forever, and your behavior is inexcusable. You do not deserve to be employed. To anyone above Robert in a position of management or ownership: fire him. Quickly, and unceremoniously. Do it in front of the kind employees, as a treat. They had a familiar air of exasperation with Robert's behavior, telling me this is normal. And under no circumstances should it ever be. Shame on you Robert.
