This is a nice, quiet respite in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown Seattle. The food was delicious and Dave did an amazing job going above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. The Brisket Nachos were divine! Absolutely loved it, can't wait to visit again!

It was a good BBQ place. The nachos and brisket were great. It was also really close to our hotel and near Pike's.

My second time here. First time with friends, today with family, and now it will be my secret spot when visiting Pike. I always have roasted rib, authentic and tasty. The staff is always nice. And the atmosphere is relaxed with people watching sports games.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu is nice

So good

The best place to get some BBQ and watch sports downtown! I love coming here from the market and have some grubs a little bit different from the usuals (seafood everywhere). The cabin vibe and its friendly staff really make for an awesome cozy atmosphere.I got a chance to taste this week's 'game day special' wings: citrus Christmas cranberry. Delicious! And they serve you the whole wing (a refreshing change from most wing places).They have an ample selection of beers from local breweries, which changes regularly. Even offer samplers if you want a taste of some of the big names in town.I will definitely be back, maybe to try their new wings flavor!

Great food, fantastic service! We enjoyed the smash burger, nachos, coconut cream pie and some great beers. Great atmosphere with it being very chill and having sports on. Service was perfect with being personable and giving you the right amount of attention. Can’t wait to come back!

In from out of town, walking around pikes market and found this place. Not only was the food phenomenal, but the service is untouchable. Highly recommend making this place one of your favorite stops. We will definitely be back. I would leave 10 stars if I could!

I knew better than give Tom Douglas another shot, pro-tip if a chef has 8 restaurants then he's not able to pay attention to any of them. We were at Pike Place Market and gave Etta's a try. Absolutely ridiculous prices for counter service and mediocre quality food. $28 for brisket came with just 3 slices of very well done, falling apart but also dry brisket. For that price, the meal came with very small paper cups filled with 1) beans that would have been better from a can, 2) potato salad that tasted ok, and 3) the weirdest cole slaw I've ever had. $26 for a half rack of ribs with the same small sides is unacceptable. Ribs were dry and had little meat.The chili tasted good but was almost entirely meat, we had to buy a couple of chili bowls from Blazing Onion to mix in with it to make it eatable. My wife loved the wings with the spicy sauce.The staff was the only saving grace, very friendly and helpful (of course it helped that the restaurant was empty on a game day)

The service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere was quiet for an afternoon lunch. The food, however, was fairly mediocre. The pulled pork sandwich and classic brisket were both a bit too salty and required additional BBQ sauce to taste good. The BBQ sauce was fairly standard stuff, too. Honestly, if you want good barbecue... head to West Seattle.

Service was great but food was burnt buns, cold pulled pork, and the bbq sauce I did not find very good.. we ate a few bites and they refunded us for the pulled pork.. nice staff but I would not go again ..

From 4 -6 the $10 single serving burgers were the right amount of Smokeysweet and heat. Carbonated whiskey sour was flavorful and a sizable serving.

We had the brisket nachos they were real good. $16 for nachos, plenty of cheese and peppers, brickley was good too decent serving size for the money. The people there are friendly and the service was great. We just wanted a snack and a beer, worth a stop to check it out.
