Duck Noodle Soup
rebecca h.

This place is great! Only been here once but I do plan on coming back because they had too many good options on their menu. The service was very quick and friendly and inside was cute, everything is pink. I did bite into a bone in my soup but sh*t happens, ducks have bones! I just picked it out and the rest of the soup was great!

Thai Thai Iced Tea - Vegan
Diana C.

The sandwich I had was really good although quite messy. Maybe a bit too much sauce in there especially for a to go order, but it was very tasty so worth it. The Thai tea was probably too sweet and I wouldn't order it again. The service was great - they asked if I wanted my tea now to drink while I waited or just with my meal when it was ready, which was very considerate. The space is bright and fun with maybe 10 or so tables. There's a lot of construction going on outside but don't let that deter you!

I love going here! All the dishes I've tried are amazing. The Bamee Gai Yang and Turmeric Noodles were both so delicious. Exceptional service! Highly recommend.

I've heard great things about Pink Bee, so I gave it a shot. We walked inside. I noticed all the windows gave the place a bright atmosphere, and the tables had cute little vases with flowers. There is a Kiosk to order from, so that's what we did. Sat ourselves down. The worker was friendly and asked what kind of silverware we preferred (chopsticks vs forks). The Food: Chicken Pad Thai (medium spice level)- The portion was bigger than other places, which is a big plus. The flavors were strong and delicious! Only complaints are: I really didn't taste much spice, and it was a bit too sweet. Nonetheless, I would definitely come back for this. Pad Kee Mao (high spice level)- The flavors were nice, and vegetables seemed fresh with that crunch that means it's perfectly cooked. However, again, this really wasn't that spicy. The noodles were a bit too soft and broken apart, and it needed more of that basil that's usually in this dish. There is a shelf along a wall with condiments that you can use, so thankfully we were able to add the spice needed to make our dishes really shine. I'd like to try more dishes- there were some things on the menu that looked unique. For example, I saw that there are sandwiches with fillings such as panang curry- whaaat?! Sounds good.

Mango juice

Wow!! We've walked past this place many times and we finally stopped by for lunch. From the looks it's very unassuming, the food was the real show stopper. Very friendly service, didn't have to ask for a thing as it was brought to us before we could even ask. We tried the fresh shrimp spring rolls which were the best I have ever had. Delicious fresh herbs and served with peanut sauce and an amazing green Thai chili sauce. The mango juice was dressed up nicely. We ordered the yellow curry sandwich and the chicken satay sandwich. Both sandwiches packed a lot of flavor but our favorite was the yellow curry. It had a nice coconut sweetness to it that balanced so well with the fresh veggies. The table next to use had a few plates of food that looked and smelled fantastic. Can't wait to try other items!

Highly recommended! The Mean corned beef sandwich was outstanding. Skins and in fried baked potato…read more chips way better than plain old fries . Sandwich snobs from Jersey , 2 thumbs up

My husband and I were leaving the National Nordic Museum and wanted to grab some food to take home…read moreso we decided to order online at Mean Sandwich. My order was ready at the time that was specified (also received a text when it was done) and according to what I read, they keep your food on a warmer while they wait for you to pick it up. How nice! $20 for a sandwich seems pricey, but let me tell you, they definitely make a MEAN sandwich! The Mean - THICK pieces of juicy corned beef with housemade mustard, pickled red cabbage and mint. The cross section of the sandwich looks insane! The combination of flavors is excellent. The Hama Hama Oyster Po'Boy - Deep-fried Hama Hama yysters with housemade remoulade and lemon-pepper mayo. I loved this. The oysteres were nicely fried with not too much batter. You could really taste the oyster and appreciate the texture. The French roll was also very nice. It was similar to a Vietnamese Banh Mi roll. Soft, but with a light crispness on the outside. Fully Loaded Skins & Ins - Skins & Ins are basically a mixture of fried potato skins and potato chunks so you get a variety of texture: thin and crispy, or soft and meaty. The fully loaded option adds toppings similar to that of a loaded baked potato (white sauce, spices, scallions, and super crunchy bacon bits). This was a nice change from having the usual chips or fries with a sandwich. Parking can be somewhat of a challenge in this area, but if you're able to make it over then I think it's worth visiting.

this sandwich was highly impressive as the main part of the…read moresandwich, it was pretty necessary that the pork be cooked to near-perfection, and i have to say it was here it gave off a deep, brown-ish color, which showed the extent of it's cooking and marination. It wasn't quite incredibly tender, but the marinade added an absolute ton of flavor. more importantly, it was present plentifully throughout the sandwich, so practically every bite came filled with pork I also have to mention how packed together the ingredients are between the buns. when you start eating, it's inevitable that a quarter of the ingredients will fall onto the wrap below, leaving a nice secondary meal to finish off after the sandwich is done. the sandwich is packed incredibly tight during the wrapping process, but it unravels a bit while eating. for me, the major highlights of this meal was the onions and the aioli Starting with the onions, these may be the best I've ever had on a sandwich. They're caramelized amazingly, placed onto the sandwich in astoundingly large pieces, are crunchy, and there's just a lot of them. They're just wonderful both texturally and taste-wise. This sandwich is absolutely lathered with aioli - practically dripping with it. This boosted the overall flavor so much, especially because this aioli was addictingly good. In my experience, the amount of sauce has been directly proportional to how much I enjoyed a sandwich, and when the sauce is this good - it's even on the top of the bun! - i absolutely loved it Somehow the lettuce stayed crunchy despite all the otherwise wetness going on in the sandwich. Props for that The jalapenos were great as well for that extra bit of spicy - I would've loved to have more of them while the bread was toasted well, the one downside was i thought it was pretty hard and tough, which made chewing kind of difficult. I found my jaw to be pretty tired at the end after eating this. I would've much preferred a softer roll that's easier to bite into I've had similar sandwiches from Paseo and Bongos, and in my opinion this does edge out both of those Comparing to Paseo, the sandwich there has way more oil, making it more sloppy and I do like the bread there a lot better, but the pork feels richer and better marinated here (although less fatty), and the onions are definitely caramelized better here as well. Bongos has a pretty similar level of pork with more, but onions are definitely a step down What moves this place above those two for me is the amount of aioli used here far exceeds those other places, which just makes the overall eating experience better For the price (about 14 dollars) this is a really filling meal

Roast park sandwich here was awesome! I had gone to Paseo way back in the day, maybe 2007 or 2008,…read moreand the sandwich tasted very similar to what I remember. The rice and beans are also amazing. I think you could probably go with any sandwich that has your preferred protein source and it would be great. The guy working the register taking the orders was super friendly as well. Lots of street parking in the area. They have one bathroom and a good amount of seating. Definitely worth a visit for a great sandwich.

Serious Pie is the best and we were glad to discover this location…read more Stopped in for lunch on a Friday and they have happy hour from 12-5 then, with $8 individual pies! We had the special, with artichokes, and the sausage. Yummy!! Also kale salad, which we love. This time it surprisingly needed salt, but was good.

We were excited to check out this Serious Pie location in Ballard during a recent holiday shopping…read moreexpedition, but honestly we were a little disappointed. While other Serious Pie locations tend to be semi-upscale-yet-casual pizza joints, this spot felt more like an afterthought with its small, dark space and decidedly hole-in-the-wall vibe. The good news is, the pizza was still delish, as it always is at Serious Pie. We enjoyed the sweet sausage pizza that has become a fave over the years, along with a couple of beers which were served in plastic pint "glasses". Okay, I'm sure this makes me sound like a beer snob, but plastic?! Good beer just doesn't taste good in plastic. (Unless you're at a frat party?) Our server (who, by the way, was excellent) later told us he'd accidentally used the wrong glasses for the beer; so apparently it's something they're fixing. Yay! It was also darn cold inside. We had to keep our coats on the entire time. A door between the restaurant area and the semi-open entrance to what appears to be their central storage area would most likely help. Again, this all probably seems a bit petty. I'll own that. But as someone who loves Tom Douglas and his restaurants, and has had great experiences at other Serious Pie locations, this one was a disappointment. Especially since they're charging the same (some might say elevated) prices as they do at the other locations. Maybe if they called it something else, to differentiate it? Serious Pie Lite? Semi-Serious Pie? I dunno, but I expected just a little bit better from this iconic local brand.

I was actually not really familiar with this place until post-fire, when I heard a lot more buzz…read moreabout it. Given today was National Sandwich Day, I decided it was a great day to check them out! The sandwich menu is vast, so I had a hard time deciding what to get. I went with the Reuben ($14.75) (as I read it is made w/ their house-made brisket) and then I also got the Sriracha Chicken Club Melt ($16.75), as it seemed to be popular per reviews. I placed the order online - which was convenient! I showed up a few min late but my order was not ready yet, which was no issue.. the lady working (Rebecca, I think) was apologetic and was hustling. It seemed busy with lots of phone calls and orders. I loved the Reuben - the meat was so tender and not too fatty (which I prefer). Perfect ratios of sauce, meat and bread and not too greasy! Loved it and would order it again for sure. The Sriracha chicken club melt was huge, but I probably wouldn't order it again. Not that I didn't like it, but it was just too large and messy and didn't wow me. Still, nothing wrong with it per se. Besides the sandwiches, they also sell other things they make such as bread pudding, mac and cheese, quiche, etc. which you can see in the glass case. They also have soups, too. Besides the food they make, this is also a market, so they sell beer/wine, chips, hot sauce, and some other items. There is also a small seating area so it is possible to eat-in. I look forward to trying other sandwiches next time - hopefully the breakfast sandwich or the meatloaf one!

It's a neighborhood Sammie place. One of my friends recommended it for a quick lunch on the way…read morehome. Sort of a deli type place, with some seats inside if you need to break bread there. Not a huge variety but you get something fresh and filling.
