Von's Roasthouse was in business for 25 years at 7th and Pine Street in Seattle!

A few years ago they changed their name to Von's 1000 Spirits & moved to a location at 1225 1st Ave. If you're ever in the Downtown area of Seattle don't miss this gem!

Even if you don't drink, stop in just to give your barking dogs a rest from all the sightseeing you've done and perhaps have a bit to eat!

try-
 

Pike Place Chowder and prepare to be amazed..if you're into chowder- great place to take a date, homoe---------j/s:|

Oh don't get me wrong I love fish n chips and shrimp! I thought you were just suggesting the clam chowder:blink:

If you're ever in Seattle or over in West Seattle, I've heard that you can find awesome food entrée's which feature an Asian Fusion blend of Hawaiian & Korean blend of cuisine. Close friends of mine (Heidi and her husband) just dined at the location closest to Cornish University because their oldest son is beginning his freshman year at that school. Anyway, they say this type of cuisine is very tasty. They had Kahlua Pork Sliders and Spicy Pork Tacos and house made Kimchi.

I like to try certain spicy cuisine, so I may try out Marination Ma Kai one day. Especially the Kahlua Pork Sliders. Sounds yummy to me. :)

Several years ago, back in 2013, when I last visited Seattle, I wonder if they were still at 7th & Pine..... because if so, I think I had a salad there, the afternoon of the 40th anniversary held in the penthouse suite of Columbia Tower. I'm almost certain it was VOn's.... good times, for sure! :balloon:

They have a FANTASTIC salad.........Von's Signature I believe is the name of it!

OMG I just noticed this post! It's wonderful, I've eaten here MANY TIMES!
Sidebar: They started out as a food truck!

Address is 5905 California Ave SW West Seattle WA


We ate here this past Thursday. They have a huge gay rainbow flag now hanging on the front of the building so I assume they are at the very least "gay friendly". We had the egg rolls (which are not spring rolls) and General Tso chicken. The egg rolls come with a unique tasting dipping sauce not the typical sweet and sour sauce. I switched to a hot mustard sauce to finish off my egg roll. To be honest the General Tso chicken was just average, but there are plenty of other items on the menu to order from.

Come on people! Some of you's must have gone somewhere this summer! Please share ............

Oh, btw this was the Melrose Cafe on Broadway in Chicago:|
