West Seattle Swinery

Arrived with heart open and bellies hungry. Left with arteries clogged (in a good way?) and bellies full!We had made plans to come here for the supposedly "America's Best Burger" (thank you Mikey Chen for the rec iykyk) and I think that's what we got.This said burger is the Swinery burger with an add-on of pork belly. We were recommended to get it with American cheese and that did not disappoint. The cheese was ooey gooey, and the pork belly was much more porky and less fatty (definitely still fatty) than I anticipated which meant there was a strong pork flavor. It's a glutinous burger there's no doubt about that but it doesn't overwhelm you! Very much worth it.What really stole the show for me was the Fair burger. Hot dang it was like a dessert with the caramelized onions! That along with the soft brioche bun and the Dijon mustard really took my breath away.Then finally, the fries. These fries are fried in pork fat with a lovely sprinkling fried garlic on top. They're salty and delicious and savory and fatty, and just really f ing good.Service was fantastic. We were served by who I assume was one of the owners. She was extremely kind and friendly. Someone's dog was freaking out outside and she immediately offer the owner some butchery fresh bacon as a treat for him! It's a small space BTW there was one table outside and a little bar to eat at inside. Saw lots of folks take things to go.At the end of the meal you will desperately want a Tums. We chose to go for a long walk and oof my body I think was overwhelmed by the richness it just consumed and could barely walk. LOL not for the weak hearted.Would recommend!

Best Philly Cheesesteak around! Service is always amazing, local and friendly. Sorry about the picture. Too delicious to wait for before picture. Maybe next time....

Local/Pro tip - call in your order and get a p/u time - there is often a bit of a wait and dining in seating is limited.The sandwich and swine fries are delicious - my go to is the El Presidente but they're all really a can't miss.And don't sleep on the selection of meats they have in the butcher's section, really high quality at a fairly reasonable price.Always love supporting a local shop and this place delivers.Just be prepared for a solid nap if you eat every:)

Can I just say I love you west seattle swinery like for realz. Everyone there is so friendly and willing to make suggestions. The food is fresh & I can't even talk about the RIB FRY because I will literally drool all over my phone. It is heavenly and problematic because when I'm done eating it my soul cries out for another.

Today my boyfriend and I finally got to try the West Seattle Swinery and boy did it live up to the hype! Andy was incredibly helpful with recommendations and had exceptional customer service! We tried the Bahn Mi and the Oh! Oh! Oh! + pork belly and both were absolutely delicious. A little pricey but definitely worth! We can't wait to come back again and try other items - my eyes are on those kalbi fries!

What a quaint little butcher shop! You can get a beautiful steak to take home to grill for dinner. Or you can order from their sandwich menu. I ordered the Swinery burger (you get your choice of cheese - I went with cheddar) and their fries. Called it in and it was ready by the time I arrived (about 15/20 mins). The fries were a hearty portion and easily serves 2. The burger was good - bread was pillowy soft and I like all the toppings and sauce. I didn't need to add anything extra. I knocked it down a star because the burger was cooked more well (no pink) when I was expecting it to be more medium. It was still good, but could have been better with the patty being cooked at medium.

Servings were huge it was excellent and I will definitely go there again All four of us were happy with what we got had more than we could eat plan accordingly.

Can't go wrong with anything on this menu but the value buy is the Swinery burger. So delicious and will definitely leave you full, or two meals if you don't want food coma. All the other items are good too but the swinery burger is standout. Patty was full of flavor and juicy. Our group ordered the spectacular, Banh mi (not authentic but still delicious), kalbi steak fries. I'll let the pics speak for themselves. Average cost of each sandwich ranges from $13-$16 and the kalbi steak fries were $16.75. There's limited seating in the back with some cover with picnic table over vibes, perfect for the unusually hot and sunny day we were there. Reasonable prices for a local shop delivering awesome food. Thank you!

I had not been to The Swinery in sometime, so I realized I had to visit for lunch. This is a professional, high quality burger that is of high quality in all areas. I had the basic Swinery Burger and it was beautifully constructed with Painted Hills beef, caramelized onions, Swine sauce, and your choice of cheese. It was $17.75, and not accompanied with any fries. So it is a higher end menu item, but it so worth it, and it does not disappoint. I also had the classic Swine fries. Hand cut potatoes, fried in pork fat tossed with a lot of garlic, chives and salt. Wow. The serving was large, and enough for at least two. But it was just myself, so I was able to enjoy the large portion of fries solo.The greeting was genuinely friendly upon entering, and she stated that it would be ready soon which it was. It was an excellent experience and I need to go back and try other menu options.

Well, it's a good thing I don't live in west Seattle or anywhere close to the Swinery......because I would be eating here all the time. My poor wallet!Joking aside, West Seattle Swinery offers an amazing selection of meat-heavy entrees. From the moment I stepped in, my mouth started to drool. I ordered the burger with bleu cheese and pork belly while my wife ordered the crispy pork and pesto. We also decided to share an order of fries. Before I continue, I have to tip my hat to the staff and service. The person who served us was so kind and polite and offered to share treats with our dog. And she gave us a side of delicious garlic aioli (holy crap, just wow for its flavor) with the fries.Anyway, the burger was so juicy and it was so good. The bleu cheese was a bit overpowering, so next time I'll order something lighter like Swiss. But damn what a good burger. My wife also enjoyed her pesto and pork sandwich - it was a bit on the drier side, but still had really good flavor. The fries were great with the garlic and they were really generous with the portions (see images below)Overall, happy bellies followed by a massive food coma. But wow, what a carnivores delight. I'll be back again in the new future to go on another meat-filled extravaganza.
