“Nice area, but very hard to find parking. I like the outside seating and cozy chill inside atmosphere. The bartenders were very nice and accommodating even though they were very busy on a Friday night. The dreamsicle cider was such a treat.“

“Highly recommend! The buffalo chicken salad was the best salad I’ve had in a long time.“

“So yummy! And satisfying pizzas! Very nice staff too!“

“Thanks for making the new beer Mirror's Edge in collaboration with our Burien Run Club (Burien Run Walk). It is really good! You are always friendly and this is just a great place for us to meet on Thursday nights. I can't recommend this establishment enough! shout out to Blake and to the brewer Michael. You are amazing!“

“I performed here a few weeks ago and I had a great time!! The room is super cozy, the staff is super friendly, and the bulgogi cheesesteak is delicious! I definitely recommend The Brick 😎“

“Stopped here to find a lotus energy drink and got lucky!!! They had a few options to choose from and all sounded very tasty! I got the "Glow Up" Coconut, Blue Raspberry, Blue Lotus Energy Drink with Coconut Milk! Tasted very good!!! The staff were super friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere, lots of tables and chairs. Relaxing, chill space. Lots of cider drinks to choose from as well as some food options. Very clean and tidy and would go here again if I'm in the area!“

“Good people good drinks! Just do it!“

“Great pizza! In fact, possibly one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time. The other day I ordered a Caesar salad and I'm pretty sure the dressing I got was balsamic and there was way too much of it, so not impressed with that. Atmosphere is very basic. Some wobbly tables and a few TV's.“

“Visited here in September for the first time! Was absolutely delicious!!! Highly would recommend. Currently craving their grilled chicken teriyaki again 😍 Very spacious setting with a nice breeze during the Summer months with the garage open. Had a big selection of beers / wines to choose from as well. Street parking was a bit busy but to be expected. Staff was friendly and helpful! Can’t wait to be back!“

“This location is really unique, located between a massage parlor and a hair salon, this place is like a korean fried chicken joint mixed with a speakeasy. Club-like atmosphere with dim lights and modern music bumpin.
I ordered the fried chicken and it came with 10 pieces and was really solid. Bit expensive, at 22$ but perfect to share.
Friend orders the bulgogi and liked it
Didn’t get any drinks but the soju looked good.
Service is slow
Open till 12 so definitely a good late night spot with drinks and food“

“I have only ordered delivery and this place has fulfilled a need for better pizza! I have missed real pizza and unfortunately, this neighborhood is filled with flavorless and strange pizza and then there are the awful chains, ugh. So, if you're across the street and see Big Mario's, please cross the street to them. Do not go to the other places that start with P and Z! They have zero flavor! I just wish that I could add toppings and ask for extra sauce in the instacart app. My only issue is sometimes the pizza shows up with tons of big bubbles. My kids will not eat the slices with bubbles but I must emphasize that this rarely happens. Anyways, I really like their pizza. It's delicious! I grew up eating real pizza from people from Sicily and Italy and I am so sick of Americans ruining it with their strange recipes in Seattle! Big Mario's is a classic and so needed in this flavorless town!“

“This review is a LOOOONG time coming and I apologize for the delay. My 70th Bday celebration in Sept.2025 was FABULOUS /OUTSTANDING because of Yelina and Mr.G!!! OMG my friends are STILL talking about how WELL everything and everyone was!!! The FOOD, ATMOSPHERE, SERVICE and STAFF were ALL A+++!!
Once again my sincere apology for the delay in TELLING THE WORLD how GRRRREAT Yelina Jackson and Mr. G at Billy Baroo's are!!!!
Forever GRATEFUL!

“Impressed with the speed of the pickup service, never have to wait long.“

“We had a few fabulous meals, delicious and spectacular! Pork vindaloo marinated in tamarind vinegar, fish and farm-chicken xacuti, crunchy colourful vegetables stewed in coconut milk, and more. Even a mundane ingredient like yellow pumpkin, cooked simply in earthen vessels, tasted complex and exotic. If you ever offer cooking classes, i'd love to learn the basics!“

“Decent broth (does have MSG) , they do jave other MSG free options ok the menu. The friend rice can use some help bit overall it's decent.“

“This place is a gem among basic airport options. We had two orders of the signature beef patties and both order were incredible, so flavorful and cooked to perfection! We also had the chowder which is too notch. Add locally sourced beers, spirits and ingredients along with phenomenal service from Rocio and this was one of the most memorable airport meals we've ever had.“
