eat it now
Lynn M.

Bro I cant tell you again... this is the best burger in Seattle. everyday, every year - the sun always be shining on this spot in Sodo. Take a mental health day and go to Costco and then stop by and get Seattles best burger (grass fed). They have a walk up window and a drive thru ( no bathroom so plan accordingly). The best local ice cream and shake add-ins. Lets GOOO ! Ive been seeing the same employees for years so I hope they are taking good care of them. the service is great and efficient- I cant imagine how many burgers are pumped thru this drive thru.

A decent burger joint couldn't complain and couldn't brag it's a decent burger if you happen to be in the area walk up and drive through only fries were good they use real potatoes staff was super nice traded my shake when I didn't like the flavor and there's a parking lot for easy parking and eating

This place reminds me of in and out with dick's(seattle burger shop) swag. Not because they taste the same, but its just the feeling my eyes and taste buds have. My partner got similar vibes. Fun fact, ive Been coming to this place ever since I was old enough to drive. Maybe 20 years now, unless im mistaken. Maybe once a year. Its not the best food in the world, but its good and different enough that I eventually start to crave it. Probably because they dont put soggy mayo sauce based lettuce on every burger by default. I enjoyed how fresh everything looks and tastes. Many small burger shops can be overly soggy and greasy, but luckily thats not the case at this quick burger joint. They dont have an interior dining space, only outdoor picknick seating so be ready for that. I believe it used to be drive through only, but they eventually converted it to walk up orders only. Might be why the name is pickquick lol. Luckily the old drive thru is used as a covering when you order and wait seeing how it rains so much in washington. Ps, everything looks small when they start cooking so dont let your eyes trick you into ordering extra food. Ylih yea, and They also make a decent milk shake. Strawberry pineapple for the win.

Double cheeseburger
Harun O.

Came here as i was told it is a good inn n out substitute as someone who always misses La Inn n Out. For those of you who are expecting to dine in - heads up - this is a drive through only burger spot in Sodo. It has a very classic and retro vibe and there is space to eat outside at the parking lot ( no seats) There was about 5-6 car line when we got in the line ( Sunday night) and waited maybe 5-10 mins. Ordered delux cheeseburger with triple patties, grilled onions , pickles and pick quick sauce. My inn n out reflexes also made me say "chopped chilli" expecting chopped pickled chilli pepper , however instead ended up getting a red sauce with ground meat ( chilli topping) - that was my bad. Overall solid burger, patties are thin - very similar to inn n outs. Buns were toasted. Maybe a little bit on the pricier side as I ended up paying 19$ for just 2 cheeseburgers (a double patty and triple patty)

Fries
Isabella

Delicious burger!!! Location is a bit far but worth the drive. Would come again and reorder the cheeseburger and fries.

You either do Pick-Quick or you don't. I do. I like the old style flat burgers, and yes, they are thin, so I like to stack a second or a third patty for a double or a triple. The shakes and soft serve are a definite yes. I am some-timey about the fries because of personal preference. I like a crispier fry or a crinkle cut, but they are still good. This is a drive thru place, and there is parking if you want to pull over and eat it there. I love the vintage look of their neon signs, and after all, it is a vintage kind of place in business for over 65 years. I get very friendly service at the window. My only struggle is I always call it Quick Pick instead of Pick Quick.

Single deluxe cheeseburger

We've wanted to try this place when but the line is always so long. Today we got our break. I'm a 5'1 female so their deluxe single cheese burger with grilled onions was a perfect portion. My husband said he'd go for the triple deluxe next time because the patties are small. It was a really good burger. The fries were old fashioned shoe string and very tasty.

mocha milkshake
Joy P.

driving down 4th ave s i was hit by an urge for a milkshake and while there's very little besides shakes and fries on the menu for vegetarians, this hit the spot in terms of flavor options and relative ease of procurement on a sunny monday afternoon. i opted for a 16oz mocha (extra charge flavor option) milkshake and that's what i got. good flavor and consistency. so much so that by the time i got off the west seattle bridge at the delridge exit that milkshake was HISTORY: i'd sucked it all down!

Menu near walk-up window
Leilani Q.

This review is solely based on their milkshakes. THESE ARE SOME GOOD MILKSHAKES. I couldn't decide on a flavor so I got banana and chocolate malt. Both were thick and creamy. The perfect consistency! Banana is made with actually bananas and has chunks....CHUNKS. The chocolate malt has a strong malt flavor and I like it. Solid milkshakes. Gettemmmm

Triple Patty Burger with Fries and side of fry sauce!

As you can see from my review years ago, when my hubs and I came back from a trip to Italy, we wanted to find a gelato shop that had the same quality as the shops in Rome. Not all the gelato and sorbetto we had in Italy was good, some flavors tasted artificial, and during our time there, we learned how to tell the good from the meh. When we returned to Seattle, we were happy to find great-Italy-like gelato at the Bottega Italiana in Green Lake. After that shop closed (still sad about that!) we started going to their other shop by Pike Place Market. For years, this place featured delicious, fresh, quality gelato and sorbetto that tasted like the flavors they were labeled with--so strawberry tasted like eating real strawberries and so on. But on a recent visit, I got a small cup with strawberry and raspberry-dragon fruit and the first flavor I got when I tasted it was sugar. As I ate more of it, it started to remind me of Jolly Rancher candies, not totally, but enough to turn me off. They use just enough fruit to make you believe it's the flavor that it's labeled with, but the amount of sugar and other things added makes their fruit flavors as meh as the not-so-good shops we learned to avoid in Rome. Alas, I think my favorite gelato shop in Seattle has fallen prey to profit over quality. Why, Bottega Italiana, why??? It makes me and my hubs very sad. The only reason I am giving two stars instead of one is because the service was friendly and efficient, and my hubs's dairy-based gelato flavors were all right--not great but all right. Over the years, we've tried all the other gelato shops in Seattle and none of them measure up either. I guess it's time we take another trip to Italy.

When you do walk in here, you feel like you're in a fine-dining like area with dim lights yet it also has the feel of a cafe where you can sit and relax with whatever you get. Since one of my friends knew I haven't been here before for desserts, he decided to take me and out other friends here to try their gelato for the first time. I got a scoop of their marionberry swirl and had a taste of my bestie's salted caramel gelato. Both were really good though my marionberry had a lot more taste and wasn't as sweet as the salted caramel. Staff up front were very patient with us when we asked to try several of their flavors at once.

Eventually I walked toward the register and asked if I could get some help. One of the employees seemed annoyed to step away from the conversation. I ordered a sundae and asked for custom flavors: vanilla and salted caramel. What I got looked like chocolate and salted caramel instead. When I mentioned that I had asked for vanilla, she rolled her eyes and went back to chatting while I stood there waiting. Another employee eventually stepped in and remade it, but the sundae was missing the nuts. At that point I didn't feel like asking again, so I just left. The sundae itself was also pretty underwhelming compared with what I remember from when they first opened. Overall, the place feels like it has gone downhill a lot. It makes sense now why it was empty on a warm weekend evening, when this same spot used to have lines out the door.

After learning about Hello Robin some months ago, I decided I had to make my way there one Saturday. A bit of a hike for me, but never too much for a good chocolate chip cookie. In fact, never too much for an average one either - because, let's be honest, even an average chocolate chip cookie is wonderful if you're an office chair. Not peeking the menu before I went, I was pleasantly surprised at the varieties of chocolate chip cookies they had to offer. Being the office chair I am, I swiveled left and right, inspecting the entire display, and ended up getting one of each (ok, that's a lie... I got 4 of each ). While each of them were great, the Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip cookie got me. The whole wheat offered something a bit different - a bit more of a nutty earthiness that you typically get with a brown butter chocolate chip cookie, but also with the pleasant illusion that I was making a healthy choice by going whole wheat. So, if you're an office chair like me roll on over to Hello Robin. You'll be glad you did. (Final note: I really tried to work in a "lumbar" pun, but didn't feel it provided much support to the actual review...)
