My husband and son received their chicken dishes first. About 10 minutes later, my chicken sandwich arrived, and it took another 20 minutes for my daughter's meal to come out. When we asked about the delay, we didn't get any explanation other than "they're working on it". By the time her food arrived, the rest of us were nearly finished eating. She ended up snacking on our plates because she was hungry & tired of waiting. We ultimately had to take her meal to go. The food itself was decent (except the chicken sandwich - don't get that, it's DRY!!), but the experience wasn't great overall, and I wouldn't return.

Two BBQ Spice Rubbed Salmon salads and a pastrami with fries were also ordered and everyone really enjoyed our meals. Definitely looking forward to our next visit!

Fast forward to 7/6/25, The Homie and I decided to check out Jersey's on 152nd to wrap up the Fourth of July holiday weekend with their happy hour. There's ample adjacent parking, plus plentiful seating in both the bar and restaurant sections. There were well placed flat screens, which on this visit had the F1 race televised from Las Vegas and the US - Mexico Concacaf match televised from Houston. Lots of signed sports memorabilia posted on the walls. Our waitperson was friendly and attentive and provided us with both the Happy Hour (3-6pm) and extensive regular menus. I'd call this elevated sports bar cuisine. There's even breakfast/brunch items available on weekends. We both had refreshing iced beverages, an iced tea and a Pepsi, which were refilled during out meal onsite ($3.50 each). We ordered from the HH menu: Crispy JoJo Skins ($9), Hog Wings with coleslaw ($13), and Buttermilk Chicken Tenders with fries ($10). I appreciated the nice presentation of each of the HH menu items. The JoJo potato skins were loaded with melted cheese, green onions, and bacon bits plus a nice garlic lime sour cream sauce. The Hog Wings selected were succulent pork shanks tossed in kalbi sauce, garnished with sesame seeds and served with coleslaw. The Buttermilk Chicken Tenders were moist and not over coated and served with on point house fries. Yet again, another Shoreline gem flying under the radar screen. Jersey's Great Food and Spirits has great service and a wide variety of menu items to savor. Next visit will be much sooner and not a ten year hiatus!

Do you want to feel like a Shoreline local while slamming some beers? Swing on by to Touchdown's!…read moreThis is an all-time dive bar experience. It actually feels like someone got drunk with their buddies and decided to turn their home into a sports bar. If I even began to explain the seating arrangements, I would be doing an injustice to the divorced-dad chic decor, but let me just say two words; "swivel chairs". I will say that it does optimize your ability to lock in from game-to-game, though. I was pretty hungry when I got here and the food looked decent, so I popped in an order for the western burger. It was ready in about 45 minutes, and the only reason I got it at that time was because I spotted it sitting across the restaurant out of the corner of my eye. Luckily I caught it when I did, because it was just barely warm enough to eat. I will say, this burg was better than I expected. They aren't using anything fancy here, but they are doing the right things to make a serviceable burger. I will always give props to an establishment that has a plethora of sauces, and the chipotle mayo was a decent accompaniment to the sweet potato fries. These fries did have a strange hue to them though, not entirely sure what was going on there. The pizza, however, did not get any praise from my homies. This is probably just a spot where you want to have a few beers and that's all. Seems like a chill place to hang if you're from around here. There were some dudes that sat there and played cribbage for hours. Love to see some fellas doing arithmetic at their local watering hole.

Of note: ADA-friendly and they accommodate children well. The tables and booths are set far enough apart that it never feels like another dining party is all up in your kool-aid. There is even a gas fireplace to lounge around if you like. 5 stars well-earned.

This place doesn't have potato salad--that would be too pedestrian. Instead, you get pickled perilla leaves, pickled okra, pickled eggplant, pickled dried radish, and more. Also, my wife is vegan, and they had an entire vegan menu available, all ready to go. We used to live up in Shoreline and loved this place years ago. We were back in the neighborhood and decided to pop in on a whim. It is all spiffy and new and under new management. The owner and head chef was there, and she is a delightful lady. The service is top-notch, as her daughter was working there. The staff was very attentive. It feels less like eating at a restaurant and more like eating at your favorite Korean friend's mom's home after being spontaneously invited for dinner. The restaurant is meticulously clean and elegant, which makes you just want to eat. In fact, the food was so wonderful that I hardly spoke a word between moaning and eating. To cap off our meal, they provided this delicious cinnamon ginger drink to help settle our very full tummies. I wished the owner would come running out with packed banchan for me to take home, just to make sure I was eating well at home -- just like in those K-dramas. To sum this all up, this is food heaven. 감사합니다 to the Hae Nam and we cannot wait to come back and try more!

The service was great and the waiter explained many of the new dishes to us herself. The food came out very fast after ordering and though there were several other tables full of groups, they also got their food out quick as well. The noise level is moderate, but the high walls on the booths and the partitions between the larger seating area and the table and booth section helps to buffer the noise pollution between the areas. The La kalbi was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The dish came with a side bowl of rice and assorted bon chon. You could share this dish between a group of 2-3 or individually order it and be fulfilled.

It's crazy how expensive banh mi's are around Seattle, so I was expecting tiny sandwiches because of the cheap price. I was pleasantly surprised that these were sizeable and they didn't skimp on the filling. The location isn't the greatest, but they were polite and the setting reminded me of banh mi places in Orange County. I'd also recommend ordering online or calling ahead of time if you're getting food to-go because the wait can be a bit long if it's lunch time and they have many orders. I'll return for more banh mi and to try their other main dishes!

I had driven past Royal Unicorn countless times in Shoreline's Richmond Beach neighborhood…read more Finally, The Homie and I decided to detour and check it out for an early dinner (6/29/26). The entrance to the left was to the Sing Along Room, where happy hour was in full swing. We could hear all the joyous laughter drifting from next door as we paused in the main entry way. We were welcomed by a pleasant wait person and shown to a comfy booth. It has a dated exterior, but after being seated in the main dining room, I found it to be clean and well kept. I liked the framed prints, huge murals, aquarium, and well maintained booths and seating. I learned that it is coming up on three years under current ownership. The dinner menu had a nice variety of appetizers, entrees, dinner combos, and group dinner selections. We opted for hot tea, the appetizer platter, almond chicken, curry beef, and steamed rice. The appetizer platter had charsiu with hot mustard, ketchup, and sesame seeds for dipping. There were also vegetable egg rolls with another dipping sauce, fried chicken wing flats, cream cheese crab wontons, and butterflied fried shrimp. Perfect for sharing and palate pleasing. The Homie's baseline at Cantonese and/or Chinese American spots is how a restaurant executes almond chicken. Royal Unicorn did a good job where it was generous, flavorful, not overly breaded or oily, and was moist. I opted for curry beef and was happy to see that their version had a nice mix of perfectly cooked vegetables with tender beef. Again, generous and flavorful. Both entrees were savored with perfectly fresh steamed rice. We were also checked on, water glasses refilled, and provided a teapot refill, which were greatly appreciated. We look forward to return and check out other entrees on their menu. Definitely added this to the dining out rotation in Shoreline.
