The food at Bizarro is to die for. I almost always have the fettucine alfredo and it is SO good. The rotating specialty lasagna is also an excellent choice on most nights. The atmosphere here is fun and homey. You can catch the waiters singing/playing guitar if you're there late, and everyone acts like they are family. Along those lines, it's a small space so you might end up sharing a table with another party. They also don't take reservations, so prepare for a wait. However, they will take your cell number and call you while you get drinks at the Blue Star next door.

Unfortunately Clara's didn't make it, which is so sad. The staff there was always super friendly and helpful and we just love the meatloaf. Hopefully they will turn up again somewhere soon.

Top Pot is what I was waiting for, while it seemed like the whole universe was doing backflips for the sweet lard-balls that Krispy Kreme sells. These are homemade donuts with substance, sold in an appealing coffee house setting with wi-fi and some outdoor tables under leafy trees as well. Check out the Valley Girl lemon-filled ones; they sell out quickly, so you might have to go early in the day. You'll never eat another Krispy Kreme again.

One of the funkiest places in West Seattle. The Sushi is awesome and it's almost always packed. The menu is huge as well because they make no effort to stay true to traditional Japanese fare. Where else can you get a roll that has asparagus, avocado, and sun dried tomatoes! Check out the menu and webcam at www.sushiwhore.com

My husband and were fresh off our trip to Vietnam where we ate pho daily and we had to hunt down the very best offering of Seattle. We gave a few other spots a chance but no one can compete. This is hands down the best pho in town. They have locations in the U-district,on Aurora and now in Ballard. French cream puffs arrive at your table before you have a chance to order, the steaming broth is tasty and the accessories make the soup (basil,hot peppers, hoison sauce, bean sprouts, sriracha sauce...). Ever need a lesson in how to doctor up that bowl into a delightful treat, just ask me. Oh, and did I mention- the whole thing won't cost you more than $6 per person (drink included- try the coconut water- yum!)

We're never disappointed with Essential Bakery products. We mostly purchase this bread at the grocery store, but there is a bakery in Wallingford that has pastries and sandwiches and cakes as well. I purchased rosemary rolls for Thanksgiving, to rave reviews. I love their olive bread, the Fremont Sour, and the Columbia. Their orange and walnut breads are great, and the rosemary diamonte is killer. Move over, low carbers!

This casual cafe is just what I needed when I was vegan. Even as a vegetarian, their food really hits the spot. They have awesome bread there, and since the new management, they have cleaned the place up a lot. HTe bathrooms aren't nearly as scary as they used to be! Everyone who works there has always been nice to me, but not too nice. They never weem fake or get in the way if you just want to read the newspaper and enjoy a vegan cookie. Their mashed potatoes are to die for, and there is plenty of protein to be had there. they also have good juice and sodas available. You have to pay a quarter for a to-go box, but it goes to a good cause.

Four stars for Belltown Billiards. This place has no identity issues. It's a mid-twenties meat-market that passes for a pool hall. On nights there's a DJ, the dance floor is the sketchiest one in belltown and the crowd is fun. Amber it's not and that's what makes it fun. One of the few (only??) places in belltown to even play hip hop, so if you're looking for that you don't have much choice. It has an unusually diverse crowd of city slickers, suburbanites, cow-pokers and tourists, which makes it a lot of fun if you like people watching. And no cover. NO COVER. Bravo Belltown Billiards, we salute you.

I have only gone to this bar on the way to the see Mariners games. Every time I do so, I end up staying in the bar and watching the game on TV, then end up stumbling into the game in the 4th or 5th inning. This bar is small and can get crowded before games. Also, the cheap drinks ($2 Rainer) are enticing.
