Between here and Exit 202 (Seattle Premium Outlets)

I've got a trip coming up on Saturday with some friends down to the outlets. I don't really plan to shop or anything, mostly just to hang out and kill a day.
Ideally, I'd like to find a nice place to have lunch or dinner between here and there.

I just did a quick flip through all the Seattle threads and they all seem list places in Seattle proper. I'm hoping you guys have some suggestions? I've already been to Johnny Carino's a few times, so let's rule that out?

thanks all!

I don't usually go down south to eat because Vancouver has so many good restaurants. However, I do make a trip to Ivar's almost everytime I head home. The one I go to is near 202 exit on the other side of the highway near the train tracks.

Carls Jr. for sure. If you can stop by a McDonalds on the way back, I suggest getting 20 nuggets for like 3.99.

buy white castle frozen burgers if you're down there. they have it at hagen and walgreens. my god, they are as delicious as how they are depicted in Harold and Kumar go to whitecastle.

they aren't cheap either. i want to try fresh whitecastle sliders. there aren't any on the west coast though

If you're gonna eat crap anyway, skip the buffets and go have the biggest, nastiest, greasiest burger you can find at a place like Jack in the Box or Carls Jr. I went down for a weekend trip, and we ate at Jack every single day. It was fucking awesome, and the dump I took when I got home was EPIC.

Olive garden just opened up this past year at tulalip casino/outlets (or you could go to the one in bellingham)

Red lobster in lynnwood

Cheesecake factory in bellevue
Crab pot in bellevue (closer than seattle's location)


Depends on what you consider nice and cuisine you want. There's honestly not much in between the border to the outlets.

If you get a chance, a hidden gem is the Bob's burgres. outlet 202, but past home depot, pass walmart there is a bob's burgers on the right.

Their breakfast 8 oz steak + eggs and hashbrowns (feeds 2) for 12 bucks.

I find the olive garden at the outlets much better than the one in Langley.
Even the breadsticks taste different.

wtf... Olive Garden, Sonic? A lot of people must have failing taste buds in this thread.

La Fiamma is really good as Da Fonz mentioned, not as good as Steveston Pizza Co. imo but solid and they have some interesting toppings. Get the rosemary lemonade to drink.

I've never been but my friend really likes Fairhaven Fish & Chips in Bellingham as well

Oh and if you are looking for something a little more high end, Tivoli is a nice little bistro just on the edge of downtown Bellingham.
