Tight spot with antique atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was not great. I don't expect much from the food and also the service. It's a pretty tight spot with an antique atmosphere. Unfortunately, the floor and chairs were greasy.

Juicy Burgers, Worth a Return Visit
My experience at this great little burger joint on Alki was a positive one. While the fries and onion rings were just alright, the burgers were incredibly juicy and delicious. I will definitely be back!

Yummy Burgers with a Beach View
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed the yummy burgers & onion rings, which were made to order. The beautiful view from inside was a great bonus, or you could pack your food up and enjoy it across the street at the beach. The owners are kind, and the teens working there worked hard in the summer heat. It's worth noting that the place does not have AC.

Good Food, Fair Price, Iffy Bathroom
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food was good, and the price was fair. Our kids absolutely loved the ice cream. However, the bathroom was a bit iffy, though they did attempt to keep it clean; it's just old and stinky. Overall, the food quality and value were strong points, but the bathroom cleanliness was a drawback.

Rude Service, Disappointing Food
My experience at this restaurant was overwhelmingly negative. From the moment I arrived, the lady at the front was rude and seemed to be rushing me, even though there was no line. She took my order incredibly fast, faster than the food actually came out. I paid an extra $1. 50 for onion rings, which were a complete disappointment. I only received five small, nasty onion rings, and the portion size was unacceptable. I felt ripped off. The staff member became aggressive when I didn't know they only served sesame bread for burgers, which I'm allergic to. Her comment that it's 'been like that for years' was unhelpful, especially since I'm new to the area, and it gave me a horrible vibe. I would never return; the food is not worth the price. I'd rather go elsewhere, like the gyros place, where the portions are worth the money. My total came to $18, which felt like a straight rip-off and made for an unpleasant dining experience. Save your time and money; this place sucks. I was still hungry afterward, and the onion rings were definitely not worth the extra $1. 50. The welcoming experience was lacking, and I will never go back! Thank goodness the view was the only redeeming quality. I'm still upset about paying so much for an unsatisfying meal. The owners need to address the lazy environment and slow service, especially when the food doesn't even look appealing. Live and learn. DONT go here!

Good food, terrible service
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. While the food was good, the customer service was horrible. The place was also filthy.

Aggressive owner, dirty place, bad food
My experience at this restaurant was awful. The owner was incredibly aggressive and disrespectful. He charged me for three meals when I only ordered two, despite me being there with my 2-year-old. He refused to issue a refund and walked away from me. The lack of receipts made the situation feel sketchy. Although I paid for the extra meal to avoid a scene with my child, the owner's behavior escalated when I asked for a box for the leftover food. He invaded my personal space, claimed he videotaped me, and continued to be hostile and aggressive, even when I asked him to step away and stop talking. His behavior was weird and aggressive, and he continued to shout accusations. This is not how paying customers, especially with a small child, should be treated, particularly over a $7 difference. I remained calm but firm, asking him to back off. The food was not good or fresh, and the place was dirty. I have visited this place many times for ice cream in the summer, but this dining experience was terrible, and I will never return.

Melted Ice Cream, Disappointing Experience
My experience at this restaurant has been disappointing. Both times I’ve visited, the ice cream was completely melted, leading to a situation where it was served like a cup of ice cream soup. This significantly impacted the quality of the food.

Great Burgers, Ice Cream, and Value!
My experience at this cool little mom & pop burger and seafood joint was fantastic. The food is great and offered at a reasonable cost. A nice bonus is that they also serve ice cream. I've only seen what appears to be a husband and wife duo working, and they are knocking out some delicious food. If it's sunny or the weekend, expect it to be busy, but otherwise, the food comes out fairly quick. When I don't stop for a full meal, I usually grab a cone and a coke.

Nostalgic Burger Spot
I used to go here for burgers with my mom back in the day, and I'm so glad it's still here. I'm 53 now, and I miss those simple days of cruising Alki and getting food with her. Never take your mom for granted 🙏😭.
