"This West Seattle classic works any day of the week, particularly in warmer weather when you can hang out on the patio and enjoy the postcard views of the skyline. But seats on said patio are easier to come by on Mondays, and a lot of doldrums can be solved by the Hawaiian restaurant's juicy kalua pork tacos, comforting loco moco, and mac salad. If it's been a rough start to the week, you may even want to pair those snacks with a vodka-spiked frosé—equal parts refreshing and potent." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
