    Grilled chicken with Alabama white sauce and three sides. Perfect with a Diet Coke

    The best southern food!! Great service and always a great vibe. The shrimp and grits special is unreal!

    Chicken
    Nate H.

    Zax is easily the best new restaurant that I've tried in Seattle so far in 2026. If you want to absolutely stuff your face with fantastic Southern food, there is actually no better place in the area. I've said it before and I'll say it again, some of Seattle's BEST restaurants are on Aurora Ave, and this is no exception. Zax fills a massive void for both BBQ and Southern food in Seattle. If you're not familiar with the concept, you pick a meat (there are only 3 to pick from, they keep it simple), and then you pick two or three sides. This is definitely more of a takeout type of establishment, but the service that was provided was top notch. She warned me when I ordered that their potato salad is not traditional, and is olive oil based, she also recommended getting it grilled. I've never had it this way before, but it was fantastic. This level of communication, and anticipating a problem before it arises, is key to a successful business. I'm pretty sure she was the owner, but that is a trait that makes for a valuable teammate anywhere! The meat and 3 is an insurmountable amount of food for one person, and it's only $20. This may currently be one of the best deals in town when you account for quality of your meal. If you eat the entire thing yourself, you deserve a medal. I elected for the chicken because it looked very unique in terms of the rub. I just assumed that it would be dry, but I was blown away on all fronts. Not only did this chicken have a tremendous smoky flavor, but it was so juicy that it didn't need the sauce at all. I believe that the bbq sauce is Carolina-style, which isn't my favorite personally, so it would have been awesome to be able to switch that out. But if you're into that kind of twang in your sauce, you'll love it. Can't wait to go back and try the other meats!

    The menu at this place was very intriguing! Barbecue with a twist. My MIL and I tried this place, and sadly we did not love it. The service was great, but the inside of the restaurant was cold and smelled a bit musty. The food itself was decent, but the only stand out thing for me was the cornbread fritters. Everything else was meh. I wouldn't go back, but I think it's worth a try for anyone looking to try some non-traditional barbecue. The flavors just weren't for me, but they might be for someone else!

    Do you see any meat left on those bones? I don't. That's what happens when you get served some of the best southern food you've had. Perfect amount of that Alabama sauce, red potatoes were the perfect side, even the green beans (a vegetable I usually forgo) were incredible. Zax and his family were so sweet and welcoming, everything from their demeanor to the decorations on the wall made me feel right where I'm supposed to be.

    Chicken and green beans and corn fritters
    Ava K.

    YES YES YES!! So happy that we finally popped in. Each of us ordered the Meat n Two. I had the smoked chicken with a side of miso green beans and hot honey corn fritters. The juicy chicken and the perfectly seasoned green beans really stood out. It was a whole side of chicken (thigh, drumstick and wing) so there was a lot of food. I also had an Arnold Palmer which was a perfect accompaniment. Overall, everything was so tasty and balanced and well priced (especially for Seattle)! The owner was so kind and helpful. He was managing everything alone and doing a great job balancing the in person and takeout orders. The restaurant felt really homey although it filled up quite quickly. I can see this restaurant outgrowing this space in the near future. Will definitely be back!

    Chicken melt and chicken and 3 sides
    Pranav K.

    Disclaimer: discovered this place through our school network That family that runs this place is super kind as all the reviews say, but the food was my god on point. We tried the chicken and it was fall off the bone. The white sauce is unique and the best thing is almost everything on the menu is gluten free friendly. The sides are very inspired with the corn fritters being our favorite! The rosemary white beans were subtle in flavor and very comforting. We even tried the chicken melt and the sandwich was delicious. My only recommendation is to add some fries and I can see the sandwich and fries being a staple for the white collar workers in the area. Easy parking available behind the store.

    Corn Fritter, Pork, Potato Salad

    Stopped by for a quick takeout lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the unique flavors of the food and the large portion sizes. The owner is also really friendly and nice. Will need to come back to try more items!

    I first really first loved the hospitality here. Mrs. Zach greeted me at the door, with a newborn swaddled to her chest. In my early days of motherhood, I was incredibly tired. I could barely take a shower. My admiration to her, for even being to work and take care of her family at the same time. Clearly, they juggle family and work successfully. I would have been much more sleep deprived and cranky. She shined hospitality. I got the smoked chicken, potato salad, corn fritters and rosemary beans. Plus, sweet tea. I have a weakness for Southern food, having a good friend from Alabama. A short wait, as they were getting the chicken fresh from the smoker. Love fresh bbq, so was pleased to hear this. The chicken was nicely smoked, with the smoked flavor throughout the chicken. They managed to have crispy skin and tender meat at the same time. A rarity and shows their cooking skills. Really great Alabama sauce added to the chicken. A very generous portion of chicken. Mrs. Zach suggested my order of potato salad be grilled. Not really sure of this. But, it was an excellent suggestion. The Herb vinaigrette was elevated by grilling and gave the potatoes a nice crunch. The rosemary beans had a delicate taste of rosemary and were tender and soupy. The corn fritters were good. The fresh corn added, gave texture to the fritters. I prefer more straight cornmeal fritters. Would have liked more cornmeal and less corn kernels. And green onion added to the fritters. Or, more spice. Still liked the fritters, just a little bland. Surprised by the friendly ambience and happy owners, they really strive to make you feel welcomed. I had a sweet iced tea. As I was leaving, Mrs. Zach offered to top it off as I left.

    Cornbread
    JJ H.

    Excellent hidden gem in North Seattle - small fast casual family restaurant with extremely kind and generous owners. Highly recommend their cornbread fritters and the bbq chicken was some of the best of all time. Very reasonable prices sticking to the flagship Eat N Three gives you a very large amount of food right around the $20 mark. Definitely one of a kind on the west coast

    Meatloaf with carrots and green beans
    Aimee G.

    Very cute family owned restaurant off Aurora. Owners were extremely friendly. They have some indoor seating very clean inside. I ordered the meatloaf which is the best I've had in a long time. The green beans and carrots were also very flavorful. Definitely coming back. (There is some free street parking around the corner off 78th btw)

    Rosemary white beans, smoked chicken, cornbread fritters, green beans.
    Tess J.

    Delicious food! We got two meat and threes with the meatloaf and smoked chicken, cornbread fritters, green beans, rosemary white beans, slaw, and potato salad (griddled, highly recommend). Everything was great. My favorite of the sides was the green beans, cornbread fritters in a close second. White beans were very rosemary forward, which we loved. Chicken was delicious, only wish I had a little more of the sauce (there was plenty but I just like lots of sauce). Service was fast. Will have to be back to try the icebox cake! There are two spots reserved for Zax customers in the lot behind the building

    Nuna C.

    The food was really delish. The beef meatloaf was bangin. It's a family run restaurant and you're treated as such (in a good way). Really people serving up some real good food.

We ordered 3 chicken dinners, BBQ chicken sandwich dinner, and a waffle on the side. So GOOD! The Kool Aide was dangerous... I wanted more. It was perfect. Great customer, comfortable, enjoyable environment. We really enjoyed our first visit here. Thank you! We are originally from Long Beach, Ca. So my family especially my grandma can cook so I am very picky but everything was just like back at home. I appreciate a hot meal that is worth the wait. We will hopefully make it back up this way again for another yummy dinner. I need to try the dessert next time and or the margaritas! Also I was reading some of the reviews. When I eat soul food in Washington I stick to the basics. I love catfish but I'm super picky with catfish, cornbread, and grits. Everyone likes it differently. The friend chicken, BBQ chicken sandwich, yams, Mac & cheese, mashed potatoes were VERY GOOD! Yams are all different too depending where you go but they make theirs like my grandma. Sweet, soft, and juicy. So loved it.

It is a cute, quaint Restaurant. I ordered the Fried Chicken, 7 pieces, with Greens and Mac-N-Cheese and cornbread. The chicken was fried to perfection. The Greens were good but I don't like the stems. The Mac was really good oh and the Cornbread was moist and tasty. I also ordered the Sweet Tea which was good. I give my meal a 9/10. My Cousin ordered the Gumbou and Rice and Red Beans and Rice and she also ordered Apple Pie which turned out to be Peach pie. She said the Gumbou was a 9/10, Red Beans and Rice 2/10, they tasted like Pepper no other Seasonings. As for the Pie she said it was ok being that the crust was hard and also thinking it was Apple. Maybe the Dessert should be labeled. Customer Service was Above and Beyond he was so nice and took his time explaining everything we asked him about. The dining area was very clean with really nice Decor gracing the walls. There is a code to the Bathroom which is located outside of the Restaurant through the doors, down the stairs and there it is. It was clean.

    Communion was, without a doubt, the best restaurant we visited during our Seattle trip. Located in…read morethe Central District, the food beautifully reflects the culture and creativity of the neighborhood. I was so excited to see Lao sausage on the menu, I knew we had to get that. The clams and mussels with Lao sausage were hands down my favorite dish - so savory, unique, and packed with flavor. I know it would be something my mom would have loved to try! The collard greens with neck bone meat were another standout. Every bite was unforgettable. The wait here is no joke, so I highly recommend making a reservation. I think we waited an hour and half to get seats for two, but worth it! We were fortunate enough to be seated after closing, and despite the long wait, the staff remained incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating. Their hospitality made the experience even more special. So shoutout to the staff! The only dish that didn't wow me was the trout - it was a little mild and could've used a squeeze of lemon to brighten the flavors. But honestly, everything else was some of the best food I've had in a long time! And I am a real foodie. If you appreciate cultural fusion, Communion is an absolute must visit in Seattle!

    First time at this establishment I was excited. It's been on my list of places to try in Seattle…read more I was really looking forward to supporting a community that is part of the LGBTQIA+ they are also a family business well-known in the community and of color. The restaurant is very clean, was greeted by two servers working, friendly atmosphere, noise level was average and it's a smaller establishment, please keep that in mind. We ordered the french fries which are shoestring fries, side of catfish, a side of red beans and rice, and a side plate of fried green tomatoes, which comes with four bite-size pieces. Being from the south born and raised, I'm a particular about my catfish and even though the breading had flavor, the catfish to me did not taste very clean plus there was a hair stuck to the breading of the catfish. It wasn't a small hair. The mystery hair either fell in the oil or it was in the batter is my guess. Because when I went to break the catfish apart, that is when it sprung the rest of it out, there was a small curl tip sticking out of the top of the fish. Unfortunately, the green tomatoes had absolutely no flavor. I will say the red beans and rice had the most flavor. I could taste the seasoning and the spice with a little bit of heat. I also really appreciate that there was some veggies mixed in with some meat as well. The shoestring fries it's either a hit for some or a miss and for me it was a miss, but I've had lots of different kinds of shoestring fries from multiple locations, and different states. It's a hard one to make. They were fried crispy and excellent. I would say it's more of the seasoning that was a dislike. The decor throughout the restaurant was beautiful to view. There are photos of the owners their family and friends. Not only could I see the love and commitment put into this restaurant, but also I could feel it as soon as I walked in. My takeaway is for the cooks to wear hairnets and if they have beards, to also put nets on their beards to further prevent hairs falling into people's food. Fried green tomatoes are not an item that can be found at most restaurants. It's easy to make but definitely the seasoning on it could be improved. Also, possibly just going simple with the seasoning like salt and a little pepper on the shoestring fries, sometimes keeping it simple is the best. A topic I want to touch on, not because I got it, but because going through the reviews prior to coming not too many people were discussing the waffles and this was a direct witness of what I could see. I did not taste it so I can't describe how the waffles tasted, but they look like they were cooked golden brown, which was nice but they are I would say more on the thinner side than what I usually see at places that serve chicken and waffles. If you are reading this review and you are looking for a place that serves you a nice thick waffle please do not come here because you will be disappointed, and I do not want people being disappointed when they are looking for something in particular and they end up ordering something that they did not want. Besides my recommendations, as I mentioned, this is a place that is full of love and commitment and I appreciate the community that has supported this establishment. It is not easy keeping a restaurant open and it's even harder these days being a person of color to even have your own establishment. As always, my friends be safe out there. Thank you for reading this review and I'll see you at my next bite *=*

Service was good overall, although it was a little slow considering how small the restaurant is. Still, the food and atmosphere more than made up for it. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for some solid Cajun food with a distinctly Seattle personality.

The service was also super excellent. Our server was on it. He was lightning quick and perceptive, letting you know where to get spoons or offering things you hadn't even thought of. We were impressed. Maybe this is why they were packed the weekday night we went. Even when one rush left, another one took its place only a few minutes later. They have live jazz, blues, and other types of shows here, so we'll try to catch one next time. My only critique was the lights. They use bright white hospital lights that are a little blinding, and I kind of wish they had more ambient lighting, but that's just a me thing.

    I'm back for the'25 people and I will admit, I missed everything about Pastor's Southern Grill!…read more It's only gotten better in every way I could think of! Today I had the 2pc white meat chicken with fries, meatloaf, rice and a brioche bun. Have you ever eaten something and as soon as you took a bite it was like you were a kid again in ma's kitchen?! That's how it felt biting into that chicken! Unbeatable flavor, texture and presentation! I love the Southern Grill crew! They humbled, original and outgoing! We're Blessed to be blessed by their culinary expertise. I really gotta start takin' pics before I start eating...all I have left is bones and a piece of parsley.

    Been waiting to give them a try and had an appointment in tukwila so I stopped in for lunch. This…read moreis a no frills, southern home cooked food spot with rotating specials. I stopped in about 30 mins after they opened on a friday and they had a lunch rush, everything is cooked to order so be prepared to wait at least 20mins. I ordered the 6oz catfish and chips which came with 3 catfish strips, fries, 1 hush puppy, chips and a drink ($16.99) I also got a side of mac&cheese. The positives: staff was kind, pastor at the counter would make jokes with customers and you could tell they had regulars during lunch time. Fries were well seasoned, hush puppy was good and Mac was acceptable. My only issue with the catfish was that it was overcooked and became a bit chewy (see photo). Sitting in there it seems like the wings were a customer favorite so I would love to go back and try their wings and other sides. Since my order took longer (there was a large order right before mines) the pastor at the counter thanked me for my patience and threw in a dessert.

    Holy smokes these bad boys are as big as my hand! My jaw was to the floor when they came out. Both…read moremy friend and I were wanting a sweet/savory combo; I ordered the ché and my friend the Willie Lee. I was a little turned away from ordering the gus with the fried chicken because of the price alone ($27 compared to the others which were $16-$19). You paid at the register and sat down with a number - the diner like seating was vibey. I loved that the garage opened to outdoor seating although your view was traffic and not the most comfortable seating. We ended up sitting inside and people watched the front and bar service area. We overheard in the kitchen they were running out for the day and how they had lots of leftover biscuits the day before but today they were bought out before closing. We went around noon on a Sunday. The biscuits did not dissapoint! Had a nice crust, soft on the inside and the jam/bacon combo is hard to beat. The Ché was a good sandwich but I my preference would be my friend's Willie Lee because it had way more jam flavor to it. Next time I go i'm eyeing the Varner.. I had to take half of mine home in the end and still felt stuffed after our meal. 10/10 recommend, nice spot and met all my expectations! :)

    I would recommend everyone should try this place at least once. I had the GUS... fried chicken,…read morepickle, sweet onion, mustard, egg and sausage gravy. Its a lot... im a big guy and a big eater and I could only eat half. The biscuit was great, and the gravy tasted a lot like Cracker Barrels sawmill gravy. The service was fine...simple order at the counter and seat yourself. The decor was cute kind of between industrial and farmhouse. Would I come again? Im not sure. Maybe in the winter because the food sits heavy and the cost is a tad pricey BUT...I truly think everyone should try it at least once.
