This little place was started as a food truck, but they've evolved into a little restaurant. Beware they are still working out the kinks, so one day you might get your food and a table in 10 minutes, other days it could take an hour or more. The biscuits are delicious though.

Great place to grab a slice or a pie with a hipster/punk attitude. There is usually some obscure vhs movie playing on the tv and some locals hanging at the bar, but the pizza is pretty good especially if you've got that late night hankering for some greasy food.

These locks were built to control the level of Lake Union and Lake Washington while still providing access for boats and the natural wild salmon that run through this area. There is an underground viewing area to see the wild salmon pass as well as the occasional large ship.
