If want a simple, yet fun night out, I recommend going retro by going bowling. Sunset Bowl is a blast (from the past) where you can drink, bowl, have a good time, and get in a round of Dance Dance Revolution. Located in the heart of Ballard, it's just blocks from some mighty tasty restaurants (some of which I have already reviewed) so you can make a night of it. I suggest grabbing a group of friends, have a few cocktails, and show off your prowess in the bowling alley. If nothing else, you will have a lot of laughs!
