Marination Columbia City - Seattle

Delicious food. It 's described as hip Asian fusion but it just seemed like upscale Hawaiian food truck food. I recommend getting a fried egg on top of whatever food you order. Note that while I said upscale I am talking about the quality. Honestly, the prices are shockingly reasonable for a place in Seattle. I had the Jalapeno fizz which is a smartly conceived year-round cocktail. The lychee margarita is also quite festive. The upstairs seating is very comfortable for small parties. Downstairs the bar area and big tables are good for large parties or solo acts.

The Nutella cream malasadas were the bomb! I’ve never had malasadas before but I know I’ll be craving these now! The savory food item that I did like was pork tacos. We did gooble up the fries while waiting for the tofu tots which were okay. Sorry but the spam slider was just too salty for my taste. I’m not a fan of the kimchi rice either. It lacked a certain flavor cause I make them myself but with spam. I will try to put furikake on mine to see how that is. Again taste varies per person and that’s my opinion. They were really nice and service was amazing. The place was definitely cool and welcoming.

Price is fair for the amount, but food wasnt fantastic. Rice was a bit dry and some of the food lacked depth flavour. Great Mac salad though!

Good prices Rainer Tall Boys, but the food was not good. The edamame was like eating slop.

The owners are doing wonderful. We all had great meals at great prices.
