Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Mount Rainier

This location is not like any of the other locations. Mostly the same menu, but everything, from the menu to the food to the ambiance has been elevated. Beautiful design, retaining elements of the art deco that is in their other locations, but adding a more modern twist.

From my Beli review Netflix Culinary Class Wars finalist/iron chef Edward Lee latest restaurant "Shia" As soon as you walk in, they seat you at the bar with your 1st course. When they're ready they walk you into the dining hall to chef's counter with your 2nd course and talk little bit about lee initiative. Shortly after you are seated to your table. Unfortunately Chef Edward Lee was not here today. Pumpkin Mandu - dumpling skin was fresh and was good, however chestnut sauce with pickled ginseng was ok. I honestly had doubts about Shia after this bite. Scallop and fried oyster ssam - best dish of the night. It was absolutely 🔥 the hot/cold worked in sync, the crunch/smokiness made it a memorable bite. Pine nut soondubu apple juk - broth itself was very bland, once you mix tangerine vinegar it was ok. Crab didn't have much flavor, the bite with mandu was decent. Each bite varied too much. Tuna bibimbap - the dish that everyone wants to try. The plate choice here does not make any sense to me, it should be swapped out with the dish they used for dessert. It was pretty good, nurungji plus the tuna worked well together. I rather have a caviar shot with the amount that was served. It was good but not memorable. Doenjang pork belly - again the plate choice here is questionable. Serving soup on a flat plate.. Kimchi was not sliced, and you can't cut it with your fork. Eating with pork belly was too salty and eating with clams was too bland. Poorly executed dish. VA rib eye - kalbi butter was 🔥 it slapped hard. Rib eye wasn't as tender as I expected it to be. The kimchi it was served with as banchan was wayyyyyy too sour. I was dumbfoundead that this passed as ok to be served.. Boricha ice cream - this was very good Service was top tier, clean table after every course. I'm not sure if it was due to Edward Lee not being here today, but it was very underwhelming experience.

On my third visit to the Lincoln, I discovered a fantastic treat.: the smoked salmon grilled cheese sandwich. The waiting staff is efficient, friendly, and very responsive. I strongly recommend this restaurant for lunch and dinner.

The food was great for the price and portions! We weren't quite ready for how large those family portions are! Service was great. A nice place for a family and casual atmosphere!

As always, our experience at Ted’s bulletin was superlative. First and most important, the food is outstanding. And the desserts are even better, especially the carrot cake and the chocolate cake. Loved my snowball for nostalgic reasons. Be sure to get a milkshake. And the cornbread sticks. And the brussels sprouts. We ate at Ted’s four times in the four days we visited DC. The manager was so gracious in giving us a table on our fourth day as we were short on time before leaving for the airport. The staff were already beginning to recognize us. Can’t wait to visit DC again so we can eat at Ted’s at least once every day of our trip. And take home more desserts.
