50 Best American Restaurants near Vashon

“Alright. I have been hesitating to write this review, selfishly. I have eaten all over northern Italy, France, US etc.

This is better than any food in West Seattle /Seattle. Period.

The ambiance is cozy and non-pretentious, the staff is kind and welcoming. EVERY dish was on point. The shishito peppers (usually prepared super charred but this was the perfect texture) The truffle arancini balls (OMG..), the Quinoa kale mushroom salad ( Um. Wow. ) The Rockfish (Cooked perfectly and the texture of the batter was so light and airy. This is something really hard to pull off. ) By the time my husband and I tried the sticky toffee pudding ( Ridiculous) I started laughing because I knew that was it.... Once more people find out about this place we will have to be prepared for waits-- P.S well worth it. Nice job. Can't wait to try more. Compliments to the Chef and Team. Touche', Ramble.“

“We Love Ruby Brink! Burger night—say no more…! The beef dip sandwich on the lunch menu is another favorite. We love eating here for so many reasons though. This isn’t a “high staff turnover” type restaurant where you’ll be greeted by stressed out workers plastered with fake smiles fighting over tables like you might be used you. This is a grown-up establishment with grown-up food and grown-up and experienced, competent and empowered staff and I appreciate how this dynamic expressed itself in terms of guest experience. When I say that the food is grown-up I mean that it is carefully selected and prepared from scratch and this means it does not taste like what other restaurants are doing, which often is buying bags of frozen soup and sauces from the chef supply store to keep costs down and to keep everything tasting exactly the same, every time. You will taste different things here and that might surprise you. Ready yourself for that and enjoy!“

“I discovered this place today. It is, hands down, some of theeee best food I have eaten in Washington state. It is a spectacular blend of flavors and seasonings with 5 star presentation. My 4 year old obliterated the duck 🦆 sammich!“

“Great food! Great people! Great service! Thank you Island Queen“

“I came in a few minutes after they opened and I was greeted with smiles! My server, Lillian, was very nice and the fish & chips were probably some of the best I've ever had (super crunchy and the slaw is yummy!). Will definitely be visiting here again when I pop back over to the island next time.“

“I Was taking a ride around Vashon with some other people one day and happened to stop in for lunch. The burgers were delicious and fries were excellent as well! I honestly Could not have asked for a better quick affordable lunch. Also The atmosphere was American as it comes !

The only way I could see someone giving this place a bad review is not because of the food but, not being able comprehend or handle having different views and opinions from someone else.“

I've had a lot of their cocktails over my visits and each one is complex and unique. If you get a chance come in and try their Vanilla Cheesecake Brownie, It was like a little cloud of heaven.“

“Great views of Seattle and a fun course to play“

“fantastic foods great staff & drinks after 3pm ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I've come to this place since I was 11 years old, the food is the same the place is the same. If you are looking for good food good price with little to no fuss this is the place for you. I especially liked that I went in and ordered my food separate. The guy taking my order changed my option to the meal making the whole thing $8.00 less. He did not have to do that, I would have paid for the food separately but he went out of his way to make it more affordable for me.
it makes me feel appreciated so I appreciate them.“

“Best chicken fried steak in Washington!!“

“I had an amazing breakfast experience! The Mushroom and Swiss omelet was delicious, and the price was totally worth it - $13 for a filling meal with hashbrowns and toast. But what really stood out was the top-notch service. It's refreshing to see such excellent customer care, it's a rare gem these days!“

“Loved having delicious sandwiches on the patio upstairs and then walking to Lincoln Park! It was a great way to entertain my north end friend, and show off the best of WS! Everyone was so nice too 💜“

“Excellent dinner beautiful presented and cooked to perfection. We will be returning very soon.“

“This was our first visit. I saw their menu and a few pics on line and decided to give it a try. This is a charming gem of a restaurant. Our bartender/server, Chloe was very nice and made fabulous looking drinks. I had wine but will try one of her cocktails next time. The food was so good! Can’t wait to go back.“

“Had the Chicago & NY dogs, both very tasty with perfectly balanced condiments. Every bit as good as the “dirty water” dogs on the east coast.“

“Don’t think twice about dining at Young’s! Food incredible and comforting. The service is wonderful and quick. Ample street parking. Enjoy some classic breakfast favorites and come in to meet your new favorite fried rice - there are no wrong answers on this menu! Check out this White Center staple.“

“Pleasant and friendly greeters, accommodating servers, overall interior cleanliness, and tasty and well prepared and thoughtfully presented meals.“

“This cool little mom & pop burger and seafood joint with great food at a reasonable cost. Plus they got ice cream which is nice bonus.
I'm not sure if mom and pop have any employees, I've only seen what I assume is a husband and wife duo knocking out some delicious food.
If the sun is out and/or it's the weekend, it's probably going to be busy, otherwise food comes out fairly quick. If I don't stop for a bite, I'll usually grab a cone and a coke.“

“Live music, good food, funky atmosphere, great staff, cocktails, and walking distance. What’s not to love. Check this place out.“

“Delicious food, clean, friendly service, and great drinks. The fried chicken, wings and BLT sandwich are my top 3 favorites. Relaxed sports bar atmosphere with an outdoor patio, pool, darts, and other games. There are also plenty of tables with chairs so you can comfortably see the TV's that are all over the place. Decent street and neighborhood parking.“

“Cool vibe, friendly servers & tasty food!“

“I highly recommend Salmon Creek Cafe if you are visiting Seattle! Found it on our last day and wish we had found it on our first! It was delicious and some great original choices.“

“This is the best new spot in town. Highly recommend. Their dishes are served as you asked, hot, fresh, and incredibly unique. Their reception is out of this world. I will definitely come back for an amazing time. No doubt. Try this new spot out and you will never regret the experience.“

“NEW NEW NEW! New snacks, new games - fun times! They have pinball games now and it’s amazing. Of course the cider is lovely, rotating and fabulous. Heard there’s a pizza test kitchen happening, I had a slice and I’m into it. Don’t be deterred by the weird parking lot, you’ll have a good time.“

“Nice place. Food is eclectic and creative. The waiter was very nice and they seem to have an efficient operation as well. We both liked it.“

“Always great food we go there often for date night😋🤫“

“Great breakfast and cinnamon rolls.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such a vibe tonight! Our bartender Brynna. S was super friendly and really made us feel taken care of. She had the best energy and even put us onto a wine that totally hit the spot. You can tell she loves what she does—it made our night that much better. Will definitely be back for another round at her bar!“

“Love this place. Been going here for years.“

“Admiral Pub does such a fantastic job of bringing people together. The Taylor Swift listening party was lively, fun, and full of energy. What really sets this place apart, though, is the sense of community they’ve built. Everyone feels welcome, the staff genuinely cares, and it’s easy to see that they put thought into creating a space where people can connect and have a great time together. I seriously recommend it to anyone looking for a bar that’s about more than just drinks and I can’t wait to come back for more events soon <3“

“Always a fun time with great friends!! Doesn’t get any better!!“

“Absolutely amazing place to get high quality diner food with an extensive amount of vegan options available

Highly recommend the vegan breakfast burrito

I would strongly suggest avoiding the vegan pancakes though ... they leave a lot to be desired, I've given them a few tries but I would just avoid this item LOL

Other than that one critique I love this place.“

“Best Burgers ever!!!! I also had a Stout Milkshake 😍😍😍 So happy to find this place ❤️❤️❤️“
