All American Bar and Grill on the Ave
The Dog House. Nothing else matters.
Farrell’s. I would eat a Zoo of ice cream today
Flakey Jake’s. A burger joint that was on NE 8th and 116th. Where Jafco used to be but is a Whole Foods. Ow. Big ass burgers.
Billy McHales. Another burger joint. I completed the 31 different beer challenge a few times.
Pietros Pizza and Godfathers pizza in Woodinville. Pietros had the Barmaid, basically all meat pizza. Luckily we have a Godfather about 20 minutes from us now. It tastes almost the same. Just slightly thinner than it used to be.
the Globe/Ould Triangle. On Greenwood and 100th. When it was the Glode it was a rugby bar. Then started going back in the late 2000s for trivia night.
Las Margaritas in Woodinville. It changed names but we always called it las Margs. Now it is condos.
Skippers. Heard there is one in Bremerton or silverdale?

Now that I think about it Sea Galley was fucking delicious. There was one in Yakima last time I was there but that’s been about 8 years ago or so.
My favorite places to eat on the Ave in the early 90s are all gone, presumably:
Kiku Tempura House...huge chicken/rice bowls for $4.25.
Poco Loco...big, saucy burritos. I've had thousands since then but, at least in my memory, they were the best.
Viet/Thai/Chi...this was a little place around 45th that didn't have a name that I knew of, but the sign on the sidewalk said just what I typed. Very good, basic rice and chicken dishes costing about $4.
Tandor Indian...they had a Sunday buffet that was the ultimate hangover cure.
Atlantic Street Pizza...right on the other side of the alley at my house in Brooklyn. Spicy, mouth roof shredding, personal size pizzas for like $6 iirc.

I worked at Sea Galley in Kirkland as a busboy in the mid 80’s I ate so much mud pie and rice pilaf and mahi mahi. Good times.
