Lunch Recommendations

Hi, my mom and I are coming from Olympia for the day on a Saturday at the end of the month, can anyone give us some recommendations for lunch. The only sets plans is that we're going to check out Powells but I don't mind driving to another location if its worth it.

We're up for any type of food so I guess I'm looking for a place with convienant parking, and somewhere thats more laid back so we can sit back and have a long lunch.

I was looking at Mama's but other than that I have no clue.

Re: Lunch Recommendations

  • From Powell's, I would take the street car up to NW 23rd.  There are loads of restaurants up there, all very much what you're looking for.  Pizzicato, Papa Haydn (a bit fancier), Rose's (famous for their Reuben's), a McMenamin's property, Yuki (my favorite sushi place), a couple of Mexican places.  I often meet friends on 23rd and we wander the few blocks of restaurants and shops until we see something that fits our mood.
  • How appropriate, my first name is Rosemary Big Smile
  • fion, that's my mom's name!  They have really good food and REALLY good coffee and desserts.  Yum.  Have a good time!
