The Spot

We wanted to come here based on good reviews, but we left the place feeling pretty average with slight disappointment. We arrived around 8:05am when google reported that they open at 8. Someone inside said they were running behind because "someone needed to open the restaurant". In this time period, about 4-5 other parties came by and ended up dining at the restaurant next door. We waited it out since we specifically came for waffles and eventually got in closer to 8:30am. The berry bliss waffle was really good! We also ordered the hobo skillet. I felt like the hobo skillet was really small given the price. My family ordered a plain waffle and by itself, it kinda looked like you could make it at home. The ambiance is very local and has a dive vibe to it, which we liked. The service was a little slow since only one person was managing the host and serving. We didn't really get checked up on and it took a while for our check to come. Being from Seattle, there are better places with a bang for your buck.

Waffle was good but cold (berry bliss). Tons of toppings and definitely a waffle you eat when you want something sweet. The bruiser wasn't bad, hot waffle, bacon was deep fried. Owner is super friendly and personable.

This is an odd restaurant. We stopped for breakfast on a cold January morning after a walk at Alki. The hostess was very friendly and both she and the cook were bundled up in jackets and scarves. The door to the place doesn't close properly and there is a 1/2" gap around the door letting whatever heat is in there out. It was COLD inside. The food was fine- we both had waffles that were put on cold plates so they had no warmth by the time they got to the table. I had the Berry Bliss which tasted fine- just cold. My wife ordered a waffle that had cheese, egg, jalapeño and avocado. It arrived without the avocado. We asked about it and the hostess said yes it was supposed to have it- it never arrived. The waffles were thin - like they were made on an iron that you would use at home-not big, thick ones like you would expect at a restaurant. Also when the jalapeños were being cooked, they opened the door AND the big "garage" door to vent the restaurant. (Never experienced that before!) the tables are too skinny to put the plates on them across from each other- they have to be offset. The staff were pleasant but I think that they really need to re-think how to run a restaurant. We won't be back.

This place has cool vibes. Unfortunately, the menus and table that we sat at were super dirty. There were ants crawling all over the table and the menu that was handed to me had gunk all over it. The flatbread was pretty decent though so I will give them that.

Cool little restaurant and bar. Neat atmosphere, they were very welcoming of my GF, her daughter, & I. Food was very delicious. Service was polite and reasonable time.

Such a hidden little gem! Amazing service, food was incredible and I love finding little places that feel like home. Sean was so kind and welcoming!!

The food service and place was great. Just a small joint that has a good cook, they use real sourdough which is a difference compared to other places. Mimosa was pretty large. Love jt

This is not my first time here. This place it's even better.The food and the people are great. We ordered three different plates, The Hobo, Mean Green and the White Trash Assassin, we weren't disappointed. This was my son's first time here and after his first bite of the assassin his comment was "no wonder you wanted me to come here and try this place"Come here and take a bite out of your assassin. Come for the coffee as well, I really liked itDon't get me wrong, the food is sinful, but the place, the miss match of tables, the alfresco element of the establishment makes this place a destination, it's located at the western end of the West Seattle Bridge, so it's perfect for your beginning or end of your daily journey.Now, something that doesn't happen very often, but it's a very small but so important detail, when the owner engages with you at a personal level, when after providing with a great set of flavors on your plates, he finds the moment to thank you because you brought your family with you.Eating becomes a social event, a community moment.I have been hesitant to call this place your quintessential Seattle hole in the wall, but today I am happy to say that it is!!!That is service with no equal.

Great French toast. Simply delightful when paired with fruity mimosa.Great vibe. Great service. Will return!

This is a quaint little place in West Seattle. The server who helped is super friendly. She was attentive and very helpful. This is a small business and if you are in a hurry it does take a while. Although once you get your drinks and food they are delicious. The chai was fantastic, waffles were yummy and loved the cool environment. They serve lunch and dinner and have an espresso bar and alcohol. Options look yummy too. Enjoy.
