Farwest Taxi
This service will show up when you need them to, on time, every time. They can also be caught out and about as well. They will take you anywhere. Their prices are comparable to the rest of the taxi services out there. However, they are some seriously crazy drivers! We were almost hit by a bus last time! Wear your seatbelt, and maybe some headgear lol!
Mc Lendon Hardware Inc
Talk about great service! These guys are the best! McLendons is a large hardware store, much like the other well known ones in the area. However, their service is much like a smaller hardware store with a family feel. They have a vast knowledge in several areas of home and do it yourself project expertise. They are all friendly, and very professional. Their prices are average. They have so much to choose from that sometimes I end up purchasing something I didnt intend to just because it seems a fun project! Try them for all of your home/do it yourself needs!
Taqueria El Rinconsito
This place has pretty good, authentic Mexican food. Their prices are reasonable. Their chicken nachos are especially good. The downside is that for non-Mexican speaking customers it may be a little challenging at times. I have ordered several times from people behind that counter that speak little or no English and my order has been a little askew from the lack of communication. However, if you can find a way to make it work, they do have some great grub! You can either dine in or take out. Prices are great.
PROS: Prices, food
CONS: language barier at times
Sub Shop 13
This place has really good subs. They are huge! Wide and long, and filled with tons of goodies! Their ingredients are fresh, and very tasty. They also have a variety of sandwich styles, including Panini grills, which are especially delicious. The staff is courteous, and will make your sandwich how you like it and with a smile too! They are nestled into one of the store strips on First Avenue in Burien, next to Longs. Prices are average.
Rootys Sports Bar & Grill
This is a small hole in the wall tavern, that serves delicious burgers! They consider themselves a sports bar and as far as that is concerned, Id go somewhere else. They dont have much to offer, other than a few corner smallish televisions, a pool table, and some video games. However, their food is delicious and the staff is friendly. I recommend their signature burgerhuge and overflowing with fresh toppings. Juicy and cooked to order. Their fries and starters are awesome too! Prices are comparable to other similar restaurants.
Taqueria El Rodeo
This place is very small, located in the Burien Fred Meyer parking lot. They have a variety of very authentic Mexican foods, but their burritos are especially delicious. They have several kinds, but my favorite is their carne asada burrito. Their meats are good quality and the remaining ingredients are fresh as well. The service is great, and always with a smile. Sometimes it does take a little while to get your food, but you will get chips and salsa while you wait. The wait is worth it because the food is yummy! Prices are fair.
Vince's Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria
Although I have heard great reviews for this place, I did not find that I agree with any of them. On the good side, it is a clean, well staffed, and friendly place. The location is wonderful. The prices are only fair. The staff is friendly and helpful. However, the food left much to be desired for me. I went with a friend and we ordered fairly run of the mill Italian entrees. However, we were both very disappointed and could not even eat the food. The flavor was far different, too different in fact, than any other Italian restaurant Ive been to. It tasted like the chef got a bit TOO creative. I have heard their pizza is excellent, but I cant vouch for that as Ive never tried it myself. Id say go and see what you think, but know that you were forewarned!
Meal Makers Restaurant
This is a great restaurant. Dont laugh but Ive noticed that when senior citizens flock to certain restaurants, its because they have great food and good service at decent prices. This is just another case where that is true! Their food is like a good quality Dennys. More home style but the same type of offerings. They serve all three meals. The food is of good quality. The service is great, quick and efficient, with lots of smiles. The prices are comparable, and on the cheaper side. This is a very family friendly place as well.
Smokey's Char-Broiled
Good burgers here! Their food comes in two varieties - charbroiled and fried! So if you are watching your waistline this isnt the place you want to go to. Everything here is great though. Their burgers are pretty delicious. They have a wide variety of styles to choose from. They offer other items as well, and their shakes are just plain awesome! There isnt much in the way of seating, so plan to get your chow and go somewhere like to a park or home to eat it. They have a little bar area to sit while you wait and about 2-3 tables, but thats it. The wait time isnt terribly long, but dont expect to get in and out either. Prices are comparable to other same style places.
Filiberto's Italian Restaurant
The place is clean and well cared for. The atmosphere is romantic and quaint. They have little candles on the tables, and it looks much like youd expect an Italian eatery to look like at night. They only serve dinner, so you cant go during the day. Service is great and the staff are all very friendly. The prices are a little on the higher side, but not unreasonable for what you get. They are a dine in or carry out facility. The food is awesome! The flavor is completely authentic, and everything I have tried here is tasty! I recommend the manicotti especially!
