"Brileys isn’t exactly on the water, but this BBQ spot still counts, because if you stand up by their patio's railing, you can kind of technically see Lake Washington. An outdoor picnic table here is a great place to spread out with slaw-topped brisket sandwiches, wedges of cornbread, the city's best sausage links, and seasonal vegetables like honey garlic butter zucchini or lemon-squeezed broccoli that consistently steal the show." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
