The Scene
This so-old-it's-retro hash house is the perfect antidote to a bad weekend, the kind of spot where prime rib is the weekend special, waitresses call customers "hon" without any trace of irony and the most exotic thing on the menu is the teriyaki marinade on the broiled chicken breast. An assorted crew of aging regulars and neighborhood denizens fill the smoky glassed, wood-slatted dining room and the fantastically noir dark-wood paneled cocktail lounge.
The Food
Think expertly prepared comfort food, circa 1958. Salads come heavy on the dressing and garnished with Cheez-Its. The house-ground hamburger dip, with its dark, complex au jus, should not be missed for love or money. Chef's dinners, including liver and onions and London broil, are delivered with a side of mushy green beans and potato of choice, either baked, mashed, hash browns or fries. Dessert is--what else?-- a hot fudge sundae topped with a cherry.

The last reviewer is wrong and/or has terrible taste. Wedgwood Broiler has the best bloody mary in the city. Heavy on vodka and light on the horseradish and Worcestershire, just the way I like it. And the food is way better than Denny's. Order the London Broil, French Dip, Pott Roast or open-faced turkey or pork sandwich smothered in gravy and you're in for comfort food heaven. And the bar is the classiest joint 1976 ever saw. Sink into the couch at table 11, sip a stiff drink and you'll forget the rest of yuppified Seattle ever happened.

My boyfriend and I were in the mood for some "comfort food" and we heard this was the place to try. Needless to say, we won't try it again. Service was ok but the food was mush. Leave your dentures at home, your gums should work just fine.
