No restrictions. Chicken preferred. Not looking for chains(no chick-fil-a, kfc, shake shack etc) Looking for something local. Can drive upto 50miles from Seattle.
There are a bunch of good BBQ places around most of which will do BBQ chicken although ribs are their mainstay.
Melrose Grill
Wandering Goose. So good.
The Met, Steelhead Diner, The Brooklyn, John Howie, il corvo, salumi, palisade, Anthony’s, Toulouse petit, and absolutely nothing with the name Tom Douglas in it. I’ve lived here my whole life, these places are solid.
Just made a reservation at John Howie since two people recommended it. Will give it a shot.
John Howie' s cedar plank salmon at seastar, Bellevue is amazing The metropolitan is overrated, I'm pretty fond of la spiga for Italian fare, also cuoco is pretty decent. Six seven for seafood is a lot better than Anthony's imho
John Howie is just another steak house, try Bateau instead. Also Sawyer in Ballard is a great all around choice. There are many others to try rather than the local big names.
try Yelp?
