Prost! A German style neighborhood tavern.

One of the few places in Seattle with this many German beers on tap, and many beers exclusive to the establishment. A big Bavarian-style soft pretzel with spicy mustard makes you thirsty for more beer, while the tender curried bockwurst or bratwurst and tangy sauerkraut with caraway seeds satisfies the post-beer munchies.

Diva Espresso

Rae Recommends!
The evolution of Highlands Coffee Company had its beginnings in Diva Espresso (created by two partners and brought to life in January 1992). From 1992 to 1998, Diva paid her growing-pains dues, ultimately thriving in both North Seattle and West Seattle, cultivating kaffeeclatsch (coffee and gossip) in funky/eclectic neighborhood coffeehouses.

El Chupacabra - Phinney/Greenwood - Mexican

The atmosphere is very casual and is decorated with fun "dia de los muertos" items and folk lore images. The food was very good for the price and although the menu is limited, everything I have had was impressive; I am especially a fan of the black bean dip and chips.

How's Rudolph Taste?- about the Kort Haus

But the Kort Haus has a few quirks that'll make the average Seattleite feel like a fish out of water. For one, there are two arcade games devoted to buck hunting, with toy rifles mounted to the consoles, a predilection said to be native to southern Illinois (having lived back that way for awhile, I can vouch for the accuracy of this statement). Then there's the dry-erase board situated above one of the arcade games; on it are the names of a dozen or so wild animals: alligator, antelope, black bear, buffalo, spicy buffalo, camel, caribou, elk, spicy elk, kangaroo, llama, ostrich, reindeer, venison, wild boar, and yak (also listed are jackalope, unicorn, and elf, obviously the handiwork of a regular). This peculiar list comprises Ed's vast offering of exotic burgers.
