The Fine Diner, on the corner of Northgate Way and Roosevelt Way, opened thiw week. It’s a ‘soft opening’ – they haven’t done any advertising yet. They’re testing their processes with walk-in traffic that happens to notice the OPEN sign so that everything is smooth by the time they advertise. This means WE can be among the first to try the new neighborhood restaurant!
The prices are modest. For instance, the Fine Diner Burger is $7.75, “seasoned and broiled to perfection then topped with lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles and mayo on a grilled potato bun”, and it includes your choice of cheese. There are also chicken wraps, a philly steak hoagie, and other sandwiches, as well as salads and French onion soup and clam chower (cup $3.99/bowl $5.99).
Dinners include spaghetti & meatballs for $9.89, a 12 oz rib eye for $19.45, and others in that range. Dinners include a cup of soup or small house salad, seasonal vegetables, and choice of fries, onion rings, sweet potato fries or coleslaw.
There are some vegetarian offerings such as grilled cheese sandwich, quesadilla, and jumbo garden burger. There’s a ‘kiddies eats’ section, too.
There are free refills on some of the beverages. AND they offer Mexican Coke – no high fructose corn syrup (but no refills on that)!
If someone wants to scout, I’ll post your review. Send it to nancy@pinehurstseattle.org.
Bon appetit!
The Fine Diner has been purchased and will be under the name “Patty’s Egg Nest” as of 1 October.
I think this is the 5th business in as many years. I hope this one makes it.
