“Local 104 – A Slice of Culinary Excellence.

From the moment you step into Local 104, you’re greeted with an inviting warmth that feels equal parts neighborhood charm and elevated comfort.

The ambiance strikes a perfect balance, cozy enough for a casual night out, yet polished enough to impress on a date or special occasion.

The service here is a masterclass in hospitality. Attentive without hovering, the staff exude genuine enthusiasm for the food they serve and the guests they welcome. It’s the kind of place where your water glass never runs dry, and your questions are met with thoughtful recommendations rather than rehearsed scripts.

Now, let’s talk pizza. Local 104 doesn’t just serve pizza, they celebrate it. Each pie arrives with a crust kissed by fire, achieving that elusive crispy perfection that crackles under your bite. The flavors are bold and unapologetic with a smoky char, vibrant tomato, and toppings that sing in harmony rather than compete. It’s a pizza that demands your full attention and rewards it.

The antipasto plate is no supporting act. It’s a standout in its own right, offering a curated spread of cured meats, marinated vegetables, and cheeses that feel both rustic and refined. Every bite is a journey, and together with the pizza, it creates a meal that’s both satisfying and memorable.

Even the restrooms reflect the restaurant’s commitment to excellence, spotless, well-stocked, and thoughtfully maintained. It’s a small detail, but one that speaks volumes about the care poured into every aspect of the experience.

Local 104 isn’t just a place to eat, it’s a place to savor. Whether you’re a die-hard pizza aficionado or simply seeking a meal that leaves you smiling long after the last bite, this spot delivers in spades.”

“Super delicious! I ordered the carnitas plate - I couldn’t even finish it. So much food and really yummy!”

“We’ve been going to Swirl for years. Love this family business and the great frozen yogurt. The owners are the sweetest people and have a very inviting shop. Wonderful place for kids to have birthday parties or just enjoy the ambience.”

“This is the first time I’ve tried this place and I can honestly say that if I lived in the area I’d probably come back. It’s a very cute and tiny little coffee hut? coffee tiny home? Well whatever it is the staff was very friendly and personable, the drive through was quick, and the coffee (which is probably the most important thing for a coffee shop) was ok. My mistake probably was getting an iced vanilla latte instead of a hot drip coffee. That would have probably been better. Well it’s a beautiful day here so definitely nothing to complain about ?”

“I ordered 3 different acai bowls for pick-up and they were all made correctly and were absolutely delicious! I'm so glad that I've found a new place to go to since my all-time fav, HB Beverage Co. closed down a few years ago. I will definitely be back!”

“Needed to pick up the order right when the store opened, and it was ready which really helped us be timely to our event. The Cowboy pizza baked up perfect! When we baked the Chicken Artichoke the pizza dough was so stuck to the paper pan it comes on, wouldn't slide it onto the oven rack as directions indicated. Had to bake it another 10 minutes. We wondered if the type of ingredients mad eth dough soggy on the raw pizza dough, or if it sat too long before pickup?

Parking: The store is in a very busy shopping center area with lots of other retail business's, and on top of that the Sunday Farmer's market in the parking lot, that was PACKED. Parking was a real challenge on that Sunday afternoon.”

“I recently visited the Subway located at 17171 Bothell Way NE Suite A002 in Lake Forest Park, and I must say, the experience was quite unique and enjoyable and a stark reminder that you’re never too old or educated to be reminded of the struggles of small business owners in America.

One notable aspect of this particular Subway is their policy on coupons. Unlike other locations, they do not accept any kind of coupons, including those from Safeway. This policy was clearly indicated by a sign, which I hadn't noticed at first.

After being informed by one of the sandwich makers, I decided to visit another Subway.

However, I returned a minute later to take pictures and video for my review.

As I was taking pictures and video, the owner, Tim, happened to be there and approached me to inquire about my activities. I explained my reasons and wondered how he would respond.

In moments like these, especially in business, a person's leadership skills and professionalism can really shine through. Tim proved to be a true professional and an outstanding leader. He generously shared his perspective on the coupon policy.

Tim explained that accepting coupons makes it difficult for him to maintain profitability, as the discounts lead to financial losses. He even offered to open his books and show me the financial impact, which led to a greater conversation.

I was genuinely impressed by Tim's honesty and transparency. He came across as a very genuine and sincere individual. After our conversation, I decided to support Tim and his local Subway by going back in to have dinner. Tim even offered to pay for my meal, but I politely thanked him and insisted on supporting a local business owner.

Overall, the freshness and quality of the food, combined with the exceptional service and Tim's dedication to his business, made for a very positive dining experience.

If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this Subway to enjoy a fresh and delicious meal while supporting a hardworking.”

“We have been going to the Edmonds location for over 7 years! We love their food! It’s a great spot and kids are welcome. Here are some of our favorites: The egg and chive dumplings OR the entree, The colorful salad, their fresh noodles in the chow mein are super good as well, and the accompaniment foods. My husband regularly orders a big order of the Spicy noodle salad and divides it up for the weeks lunches!! The LFP location is a great spot to get quick food and I order them on Uber Eats! Bonus!! My only wish would be the Edmonds full menu also being on a delivery service.”

“outstanding food and service”

“Karina, Natalie, and Chris are all AMAZING people. Made my experience 10x better than any other Starbucks or coffee shop I’ve visited. Very kind & warm environment that’s made entirely by the people who work there. Matter of fact, all the employees on their team seem to be phenomenally friendly people.

Will exclusively be going here whenever I’m in the area.”

“This is a premium class restaurant with wide selection of Nepali Indiana & Tibetan cuisine items. The service and ambiance is very good”

“Love this MOD! They are always so friendly and the restaurant is clean. It can get really busy around dinner time, but they do a good job working through the line fast. There is inside and outside seating. It can be loud inside sometimes when it's busy. Kid friendly and dog friendly (only when you eat outside). Highly recommend!”

“The peanut butter cookie was amazing!!! The best bakery peanut butter cookie I have ever had outside my grandma’s!”

“Oyster poor boy was the best sandwich ever”

“Best Ethiopian food I've had in a while, and everyone is so nice! The food is fresh and even the cheese is made the same day! I'm definitely going to come back here ❤️”

“This was the best dining experience EVER!! The chef and cook staff are amazing. It’s a small kitchen but what they create together is wicked good. No words are had to describe!! If you can get in, do yourself a favor and go💜”

“Always amazing! The atmosphere, the service, the food. My favorite place in the area.”

“This is one of Seattle’s best Italian restaurants. You won’t be disappointed.”

“I love Sushi Kappo Tamura and Taichi!! I have a hard time eating sushi anywhere else.”

“Absolutely charming little spot serving fresh, perfectly seasoned dishes that are sure to please. Excellent and knowledgeable staff can make recommendations from the ever-changing menu based on your tastes, and it's easy to have almost any dish modified to be vegetarian or vegan. Perusing the tasting notes on the wine wall is a nice way to pass the time - great prices on the take-home bottles. If you're on a budget (and I usually am), grab a snack or two. Otherwise, try a little of everything!”

“The atmosphere is superb! I love the heathy option. Remember your input matters. You cannot expect same output (outcome) when you are putting bad inputs. Self-care by eating healthy food option. This is a place for those who take their body seriously. The staffs tend to be busy but it is worth the wait. I can see that they really do care about the food and its service. Btw I even saw @spencerhawes NBA player order here. Which means foods are good here. Sport players know what tastes good! Come and taste!”

“The wings and pina colada were amazing. Atmosphere is great. The service was great which was surprising to us given that they were short staffed. Food still came fast and the waiter was very effective.”

“Great food and even better staff and owner- very accommodating and friendly!”

“I didn’t taste coffee from Nutty coffee. It is like a peanut powder drink. However, banana matcha is really good and the banana cream is rich and not too sweet. Good atmosphere!”

“The best steak i have ever had !! Everything was sooo good! All the salsas were delicious. Loved it ! You gotta have dessert.. arroz con leche!”

“One of the best sushi restaurants I’ve been part of!”
