The Old-School Drive-In In Washington Where You Can Still Get A Full Meal For Under $10

There’s a little spot in Shelton, Washington, that makes you feel like the rest of the world forgot to keep up with the times, and honestly, thank goodness for that. The Ritz Drive-In is the kind of place that reminds you food doesn’t need to be complicated, overpriced, or served by someone who calls you “valued guest.”

The Crackly Fried Chicken Oprah Had Flown Across The Country Comes From A Tiny Washington Takeout Counter

Oprah Winfrey once had fried chicken from a modest Washington takeout counter flown across the country. Yes, the same Oprah. The chicken traveled farther than most of us do on vacation. The skin is the real headliner here. It comes out crackly enough to make noise when you bite in.

This Washington Hawaiian Spot Piles Kalua Pork And Mac Salad On Plate Lunches Big Enough To Share

Kalua pork that pulls apart with a fork. Loco moco with gravy and egg yolk running through the rice. A family-run bakery right next door selling guava cake. That combo alone sounds like a vacation, but it sits in a small retail strip in an industrial corner of Washington. The plates come with rice and mac salad, the way they do back on the islands.

This Old-School Washington Diner Bakes Cinnamon Rolls So Big The Whole Family Splits One

The cinnamon roll comes to the table so big that the icing visibly cascades down the sides. That one pastry has racked up more mentions than anything else on the menu. Not the hash browns, not the chicken fried steak, the cinnamon roll. The diner serving it has been around...

This Washington Restaurant Has Fed The Same Hometown Families For Generations And Still Packs The House

One pot of chili has been feeding the same neighborhood since 1922. Even the secret recipe is famously guarded, with one person said to know all of it. That kind of loyalty is rare in Washington, or anywhere. The menu still hangs on an old-school board with plastic letters. You...

Wondering Where Washington Still Serves Real Pastrami? Check These 9 Delis

Real pastrami takes days to make. The brisket gets brined, rubbed with pepper and spice, smoked, and then steamed until it turns tender. That slow process is exactly why great pastrami feels rare. Plenty of sandwiches use it, but far fewer kitchens still treat it like a craft. In Washington,...

The Seattle Restaurant Anthony Bourdain Called 'A Holy Place'

Anthony Bourdain spent many years of his life highlighting underrated restaurants across the globe, but some of his favorites were closer to home in the United States. While his frequent visits to restaurants up and down the East Coast led Bourdain to discover that the best cheesesteak isn't from Philly, his visits to the Pacific Northwest caused him to find a restaurant that he considers to be a one-of-a-kind sandwich shop in the heart of Seattle: Salumi.

Korean Fried Chicken Comes Glossy At These 10 Washington Spots

Korean fried chicken often takes two trips through the fryer. That second dip builds a shell sturdy enough to hold a thick, shiny sauce without going soggy. I love that the sauces sound like a dessert menu crossed with a spice rack. Honey butter, soy garlic, sweet and spicy yangnyeom, even cheddar powder dusted on top like snow.

This Old-School Washington Deli’s Reuben Is So Huge It’s Worth the Detour to Bellevue

The Reuben here is so tall that plenty of people give up on their hands and reach for a fork and knife. That’s not a gimmick. That’s just how this sandwich arrives. The corned beef gets piled high, and the sandwich lands next to a scoop of potato salad. Pastrami gets the same generous treatment.

Washington Has 6 Butcher Shops Where the Meat Beats the Grocery Store and Costs Less

One butcher shop on this list never locks its doors. It runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so a midnight steak craving actually has somewhere to go. That detail hooked me fast. Then I learned another shop sells exotic game next to its jerky, and a third keeps homemade salsa beside the premium cuts.

The Restaurant at Salish Lodge in Snoqualmie, Washington, Serves Breakfast With Views of Snoqualmie Falls
