The Best Dishes Eater’s Seattle Editor Ate in July 2025 | Eater Seattle

"Settled into its new permanent Frelard beer garden space, this is Onur Gulbay’s Texas-style barbecue with Turkish-style sides, where the sumac-topped potato salad is a refreshing treat in the summer sun, the corn casserole is an ideal not-too-sweet carby backbone to a pound of prime brisket or pulled pork, and spicy pickled vegetables add heat and a needed textural counterpoint to the soft give of the bread and meat; even the bread pudding is an inventive riff, an ice-cream-scoop-looking orb of Nilla Wafers and cream in a to-go brown tray. Consider this a reminder to spend an afternoon here with a cool drink in hand and a heap of smoked loveliness before the sun’s all gone." - Harry Cheadle
