Cheap Places to Eat in Kirkland

Breakfast and brunch items include migas, an array of Benedicts (from pork belly to Dungeness crab cake), gluten-free French toast (topped with unlimited fresh berries), goat cheese omelets and Swedish pancakes.

"website | 5214 Ballard Ave NW (get directions) | Ballard | cuisine: Italian | price range per dish: $15 – $30. Stoneburner has one of my the most beautiful restaurants in Seattle. The owners curated vintage finds from their travels to outfit the space, including both the ceiling and floor tiles."

This incredibly rich and creamy drink delivers strong on the nutty, fragrant notes of black sesame, and pairs well with the shop’s various snacks, such as its sesame scallion noodles and fried chicken skins."

"Outside Quality Athletics in Pioneer Square is sort of a fast-casual hub of sorts, with this smash burger-focused spot joining forces with popular fried chicken purveyor Cookie’s Country Chicken and the pizza pop-up Trophy. The burgers here are no-frills, but well crafted (and cost less than $5). Open for takeout and limited onsite seating."

With a whole case stacked high with pies, you can grab a slice of one of the vegan pies of the day or order a fresh whole pie to share (or eat entirely by yourself—no shame).

"Thirty-one floors above downtown Bellevue, this steak-meets-sushi restaurant could coast on views and clubby vibes, but Ascend’s sky-high prices feel far more justified once you experience the luxe crudos, appetizers, steaks, and sides flawlessly executed to be greater than the sum of their (many) parts. The six-tier steak menu is the big draw, but the sushi bar is equally impressive with traditional nigiri or modern roll concoctions of spicy tuna and prosciutto. Servers are intensely, impeccably trained to support and advise, from the iPad wine list to the theatrics of the dessert menu."

"Enjoy the ultimate splurge at this elevated, fine-dining restaurant in Bellevue, and get ready to drink in views of a lifetime. On a crystal-clear day, Mt. Rainier shows her mighty peak on one side, as Seattle's skyline rises in front of the distant Olympic Mountain peaks. While a full steak and sushi dinner seems to be an event saved for special occasions here, you may also choose to treat yourself to cocktails, delicious wine and small plates with a view in the lounge."

"In a former life 15 years ago, it was a Dunkin’ Donuts, hence the familiar looking signage with a pink, sprinkle-adorned doughnut. But today, this bakeshop situated in the northern reaches of the city fries its own doughy creations: honey-glazed doughnut holes, chocolate topped with chopped peanut, even a pleasantly crunchy, plain old-fashioned."

"They didn't leave that typical fatty after taste of regular donuts. The service was great and the coffee my family..."
