    I was back in Ellensburg for an alumni event. I was early and wanted lunch. I chose the Red Pickle on 3rd street. Loved it! Friendly staff from the moment I walked in the door. The menu was casual: burgers, tacos, dogs, fries and such but with World fusion flavors. Chimichuri sauce burger with Wasabi fries. Delicious, reasonably priced and fun. Thank you.

    Taco fries
    Holly W.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. They immediately brought water with a straw and crayons for the little one in our group. The strawberry balsamic vodka was really good. It was different than anything I've ever tried. It got better with every sip. The wasabi fries were a good starter. The amount of wasabi makes eating them manageable without completely emptying your sinuses. The taco fries were super good. Crispy fries and lots of meat. What an enjoyable lunch.

    Halfway through my wasabi fries, amazing!

    Delicious and imaginative. We had a hard time choosing just two dishes to eat for lunch because everything in the menu was tempting. Then the food came out and it was even better. I may be in love with the wasabi fries; so sweet and spicy, the chefs here are courageous and adventurous. Do not hesitate to eat here, the food is great and the service is top notch.

    Yelp never disappoints! On our way to see a concert at the Gorge with the family. Driving through Ellensburg, I told my husband to look on Yelp for a restaurant with 4 stars or above, literally never disappoints! The Red Pickle was excellent!! Cute location downtown, seating inside and out. We sat outside at the high tops, beautiful day. I tried the cheesesteak with Cajun fries, my husband tried the special steak sandwich with rosemary fries. My cheesesteak was delicious! Fries were awesome- I liked the rosemary fries the best- not just a hint of rosemary, strong rosemary taste- delicious! Kids both had the home made chicken nuggets- their only complaint is that they wish it came with more, but it was under "the not so hungry" section on the menu. Highly recommend- food and service was outstanding!

    Went to our nephews baseball tournament in Ellensburg and found this awesome place through the Yelp app. Got a table for seven right away. Helped right away. Food came quickly. Waters were always full. Loved the menu and selection. It had a vibe and our family was all for it. Server was attentive and helpful with making food selections. Brussels were some of the best we have ever had.

    Burger with rosemary fries

    My family stopped here for lunch on our way back from vacation, and I do not regret it. Our waitress was very accommodating, and our drinks quickly arrived. And while they were not the best, the food quickly made up for it. I got the burger with rosemary fries, which are to die for. Outdoor seating was nice, but our table was rather dirty. Overall worth it, would come again.

    Philly Cheesesteak on fries and house salad
    David F.

    Tried the Philly Cheesesteak but with a twist. No bread but served on top of fries. Different but I would have preferred on a traditional roll. Also, lots of onion and peppers that outnumbered the tiny bits of "steak." Lacked the seasoning I would have expected based on the menu's description. Had the house salad which was fresh and plentiful Service was good. No complaints really but just wasn't impressed enough to come back. $32 for what you see in picture including tip. A bit overpriced.

    Cocktail and beverage menu

    The service was really nice, got seating quickly and had a nice waitress. I would describe this place as a Brazilian fusion. Burgers and tacos with delicious cocktails. We got the wasabi fries as an appetizer which were good. And the pork cocktails with a blueberry lemonade. Very tasty tacos with a big kick from the spicy salsa on top. Also their Cajun fries were so good! The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the sauce on the side of the tacos & wasabi fries. The orange sauce just tasted weird, not a good combination for the food.

    Shrimp tacos special (11/5/23)

    One of the few spots in ellensberg with more than one vegetarian option/affordable and fun vegetable heavy menu items! Brussel sprouts were probably the highlight! Large portion, flavorful, hell yeah baby cabbages. Can get a side added to most entrees for $2.50, but note for those that don't include sides (e.g. tacos) you'll end up paying $10 for a full portion, whoops Veggie burger was ok! As most homemade veggie patties are, a lil squishy and bland. Carnitas fries were loaded and flavor packed from what I saw! Appreciated the fajita veggies on the shrimp taco special Good outdoor space, just lacked space heaters. But plenty of indoor seating (phat 8 top in the center, then lots of 2/4 tops) and a nice lil colorful bar space. Would come back!!

    Decided to grab a late lunch at The Red Pickle while we were staying in Ellensburg for the weekend for a music festival. Since it was hot outside, the outdoor seating area was open, in addition to having seating inside the restaurant. There wasn't any staff member outside when we came, so we went inside and then escorted to a table outside. It was really hot and smokey that day, unfortunately, but we didn't mind being seated outside since it was also hot inside. My friend ordered the Philly Cheesesteak (beef marinated with Guatemalan spices, sriracha mayo, onions, green peppers, and a blend of shredded Monterey jack and cheddar cheese, served on a hoagie roll) with a side of rosemary fries along with the Charcoal Lemonade. I ordered the Gauchito (one beef burger patty marinated with chimichuri sauce served on a bun with american cheese, lettuce, and sriracha mayo) with a side of rosemary fries. Overall, the food and service were good! Just make sure to swat the flies away from your food periodically, especially during the summer. They were constantly around us trying to land on our food.
