Stell's Burgers - Seattle: May 25, 2007

A friendly little burger stand at the north end of Queen Anne was a delicious find. (Hats off to the Seattle Times food section.) Kind of what you hoped Red Mill would be like, friendlier, faster, and tastier.

The gyro was great. Fresh ingredients (homemade tzatziki, yum) made a big difference as did the super thinly sliced tomatoes and onions.

The veggie "burger" was actually grilled veggies like eggplant, zucchini and peppers. You can get a garden-variety garden burger but I'm not sure why.

The onion rings were amazing. It's rare to actually taste the beer in the beer batter.

I'm a little frightened of the Stell Burger, which plunks provolone and pastrami on a hamburger, but I'm ready to try some more.

Will we go back? For sure.
Should you? Yep, veggie-friendly, family-friendly, no booze though.
How much? Pretty affordable for all of the fresh and homemade stuff going on. $5-6 for most stuff.
