    Tat's Italian Hoagie
    Christopher L.

    Fantastic place in Pioneer Square conveniently located near the light rail station. The space is clean and has plenty of seating. You can dine in, take it to-go, or get delivery. The service is fast and friendly. This time got the tatstrami and it did not disappoint. The hoagie was packed full of tender pastrami with cheese, russian dressing, and sweet slaw. This was a very satisfying lunch. In addition, the potato salad is fantastic and worth getting a larger size to take home. There is so much to try and will be back soon.

    Finally got to try Tats after so many years of going and working in Seattle. We ordered the tatstrami and italian grinder, both were hot style sandwiches and they were piled high. We actually had to use a fork to eat cause the meat and veggies were spilling out everywhere and it was a hefty sandwich to try to hold and bite into. Our favorite was the tatstrami but both sandwiches were still very good. Only issue was the bread did get soggy fast so it was falling apart.

    This is genuinely one of the first times I ate a restaurant that had flavor in Seattle. I can truthfully say everything was seasoned beautifully, the meat was juicy, the cheese wiz had a great flavor and consistency of perfect gooey-ness, the fries had a crunchy outside and soft inside, and had a nice coating of old bay. Not to mention, the portions!! It was way bigger than I had anticipated, yet they don't sacrifice the quality for the quantity. Rosalyn was super helpful when it came to deciding what exactly to order and was very patient while I was being indecisive. It came out much quicker than I expected and I would recommend anyone to stop by during their strange business hours. I also enjoyed the rustic feel on the inside.

    Food was quickly made! Not much of a wait. Nice place to stop in and have lunch downtown Seattle. Parking is hard so walk in. Food was HOT and cheese melted so good .

    Delicious Italian submarine sandwich. Filled with great deli meats and spicy sauce...the other key factor was a wonderful roll the sandwich was built on. Perfect location right by Pioneer Square and just a few blocks away from King Station... they also have an amazing menu with a few cold options and several hot sandwich options. For Seahawk or Mariners fans it is close to both stadiums...please visit them soon!!! TATSDELI.COM

    Quick easy to order . No reservations required. August 15th, my coleslaw is large. My sandwich is small. Add mushrooms. Live games plus best meats in Seattle.

    The sandwiches here were so good! They are also huge. The service is fine and they're pretty speedy with getting orders together but sometimes it can be hard to hear your number since it's a little noisy. Would definitely go back for the eggplant parm again! They have 2 veggie sandwiches but no vegan items.

    Solid choice for beef cheesesteaks. Delicious, generous portion and fast service. We ordered for take away.

    Tats makes you feel like you're right back in a sandwich joint in Philly. It's got a major east cost sandwich vibe, which is great. The workers are all very nice, but the Philly cheesesteak... man is it good... I love a good cheesesteak, and Tat's has very easily earned itself a spot on my Mount Rushmore of cheesesteaks. The steak is steak ribbons in stead of chopped I, which I much prefer. The bread holds its form, mostly, the wiz is nice and warm and they give you plenty of it. In a city where east coast style sandwich shops are harder to come by, tat's is the perfect spot for any hoagie, and chief among them, the Cheesesteak.

    Roast pork 12 inch

    2.8/5 I haven't been in years so decided to pop in to see how things are. Ambiance - not much to say, typical sandwich shop. Bunch of seating. Service - service was top notch, the woman who took my order had a huge smile and helped make suggestions on what to try. Food - I tried the roast pork sandwich, with a side of old bay fries and a soda. Total came to $30, so it is a pricier lunch. I have to say after spending $30, I was a little let down. The fries were great, they held their crisp and had a ton of free sauces for dipping. The sandwich itself, although it was very hearty and LOOKED amazing, lacked flavor which was shocking to me. The meat didn't taste seasoned, but it was tender. Sauteed spinach wasn't giving off much flavor either. I thought my tastes were off but I gave a few bites to my fiance and she said the same thing. Would still like to try some of their other options, I would just pass on the roast pork.

    Meeting up in downtown Seattle with friends traveling from Australia...and needed a place for lunch. Walked to Tat's as it's the only place I know in dt Seattle and little time to research other options. We ordered the traditional...Philly cheesesteak...beef, fried onions and whiz...yes cheese-whiz. Food came out pretty quick and happy that we were able to secure booth seating. The taste was great...but I did find it a wee bit salty. We all came away very full and satisfied. It was another positive Tat's experience.

    Philly Beef Cheesesteak added hot peppers, onions, mushrooms and cheez wiz!

    Best beef philly cheesesteak I've ever had here in Seattle (I've never been to Philly so not sure how the OG tastes). Service is fast, they mean business so know what you want. Luckily, they have many signs to help you order your food. Everything was fresh and hot. The place was very busy which is a great indicator of a good place to eat. Plenty of seats for dine in or you can order online and take it to go. They also have tvs to watch sports (they are Philadelphia establishment). I really enjoyed my sandwich to which I added peppers, mushrooms and don't forget the cheez whiz! I hope to come by more often!

    How much pastrami do they put on the tatstrami sandwich by weight?

    About 6oz on an 8”

    Why do they stop delivery at 10am?

    We offer free downtown delivery for 10 or more sandwiches with 24 hrs notice. Our small delivery service is provided by caviar and is available M-W and Sat through lunch. On Thursday and Friday we don’t offer caviar service during our lunch… 

    Is there any vegan options?

    The French fries? It's a deli... so mostly meat/cold cut sandwiches.

None of this other stuff. Get the supersize of plain and ask them to double well done and you'll be golden! Roll is good bread and although about half the length you get in Philly it's very respectable. If they wrapped the cheesesteak on blank newsprint that would cap it off. But, I bring my own for the full experience. I hope they start carrying Butterscotch Krimpets and soft pretzels, then I'll be home. Give it a try...

I love a classic cheesesteak so my typical order is the Philly Cheesesteak with onion, pepper, and mushroom. Belly Buster - The staff said it's about 2 oz more meat. I've seen some comments that there's no really a difference between belly buster and regular, but after having over a dozen of these I will say that it may not look different, but it's noticeable while eating. There's much less bread feeling every mouthful with the belly buster and tastes a bit more salty and flavorful. Philly Cheesesteak w/ onion, pepper, mushroom - Bread is soft and warm. Steak with onion, pepper, and mushroom is piping hot with cheese melted on top. Garlic Fries - Crispy and well seasoned with a moderate amount of garlic Fried jalapenos - You get 3, they're great if you love jalapenos. I have a reasonable spicy tolerance, but i thought they were a bit too spicy by themselves. Maybe adding them into the sandwich would be better. This location is open pretty late. My old complaint is that they aren't open in Sundays. The place is always really clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

    We have been going to the Tat's Truck for yummy sandwiches for many years now - it's kind of…read moreembarrassing that I'd never thought to write about them until now. Tonight, they were at Hell Bent in Lake City. We love that this is a regular spot for them these days because it is the easiest location for us to get to on their schedule. My go-to is either the Chicken Philly or the Turkey Tatstrami since I don't eat red meat. Tonight it was the Turkey Tatstrami. My husband and son always go and pick up the sandwiches. The folks working the truck are so kind and *always* remember them. There's something to be said about being a regular and having a friendly rapport with these cool people. They are often super busy but recognize my family every time. :) There were a lot of people waiting for their food when we got there, but the line to order was short. Everyone was patient - they knew dinner was going to be good! These sandwiches are not for everyone. If you don't like ones that get really messy and require several napkins, this isn't for you. Well, at least the sandwiches that I always order, anyway. What I love: - the super friendly staff, always upbeat and welcoming - the crazy delicious sandwiches, wrapped in white paper (I just love when sandwiches are wrapped in white paper) - their steak sauce. You have to ask for it if you're not getting a cheesesteak sandwich. I always get some. It's tangy and zippy and goes great with their food What could be better: - it's not their fault but parking is sometimes challenging in that area. Hell Bent is popular so it is tough to find a spot in that lot If you love Philly Cheesesteak types of sandwiches, and don't mind getting your hands a little messy, Tat's is a solid choice.

    Divine. I had the…read morepleasure of catching Tat's Truck in a nearby neighborhood, and my husband and I sampled their two most popular sandwiches: the Tatstrami and the Philly cheesesteak. There is an old ad campaign for an infamous fast food chain that featured celebrities biting into their burgers and having the sauce drip onto them. Tat's sandwiches make you feel like you're actually in one of those commercials, loving every moment as the sauce drizzles down your chin. The bread on both sandwiches is perfect. Toothsome with a cornmeal dusting but moist and gentle against the sandwich fillings. The pastrami is fragrant and tender, and its amped up by its accompaniment of crisp cabbage slaw. The cheesesteak is so juicy, and the cheese is complementary to the steak but doesn't steal the show. As you can see, Tat's sandwiches are incredibly generous with the meat, as well! Pro tip: if you happen to have a bag of French onion Sun chips lying around, eat them with the pastrami. It's symphonic. It's worth mentioning that their staff is super friendly and helpful, too! I cannot wait to find Tat's again in the wild!

Heading from WA-16, you take the Sprague Ave exit and it will be on your right; at the corner of Earnest S Brazill St. PARKING There's plenty of parking if you want to walk up and order or eat there. AMBIANCE Not much for ambiance. It's just a burger stand with uncovered tables and chairs. I believe most people just use the drive thru. SERVICE I ordered at the drive thru. It's just like any other drive thru experience. There was one vehicle in front of me. It took about 10 min to get my food from the time I ordered, waiting for the customer in front of me, and paying the woman at the window. One note I'd like to make is that I was told they do not accept Capital One credit cards, which I found extremely weird. I thought she meant Mastercard so I was going to give her a Capital One card with Visa, but she was adamant that it was specifically Capital One that doesn't work. I didn't feel like arguing so I just used a different card. FOOD So I got myself a Philly cheesesteak. I've read the burger was good too so I also got a double cheeseburger meal. The cheesesteak was decent. All around had good flavor. The cheese was slightly overpowering in my opinion, but I didn't mind it. I just wish the cheesesteak was a little bigger. The burger was okay. It didn't really stand out compared the other options in the area. I personally enjoyed the cheesesteak more. The fries were good. Better than your average fast food fries. OVERALL I might come back. It's kinda out of the way from where I live and I have so many other options. But it's not a bad stop if I'm already in the area and in the mood for a cheesesteak.

No exaggeration I haven't stopped thinking about how good this burger was since I had it, I will certainly be back.
