The 10 Best Restaurants In Rainier Beach

"When you spring awake on a Sunday morning thinking of loaded home fries, bowls of buttery grits, and crunchy catfish, head to Drae’s immediately. This comfort food spot serves what your subconscious was looking for all along. And while the breakfast here rules, they also excel at fried chicken—so much so that the last four digits of their phone number spell out “WING.” It doesn't matter if you get them naked or breaded—these are the kind to scarf down by the pound, no sauce necessary. But if you do fancy a dip here and there, you’ll find tasty options like maple aioli and spicy sweet chili. " - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo

Popeyes, who? Best chicken sandwich I've had anywhere. Like any great experience, I was a little depressed when I was finished. My partner had the grits bowl, and it was loaded! Not just stuff thrown into a dish, but perfectly loaded up with flavor. The waffle my kiddo had was somehow crispy and soft at the same time. The bacon was thick and wide. The mimosa was strong, and the service was impeccable. The front of the house and kitchen staff sent us off with a thank you. It felt like a community, and we will be back.

Amazing food, good music, good vibes, great service.. What more can you ask for?! Loved everything about the place and the young lady working up front made me feel right at home. This was my first visit but wont be my last. I had the Shrimp & Grits and I was mad once I ate it all, hahaha 10/10!🔥🔥🔥

Food is great and the hospitality that Chelle gave made us feel so welcome. Enjoyed listening to some old school R&B while savoring the scrumptious bowl of grits and plate of chicken and Waffles. I've also tried their Philly cheese steak sandwich and will go back to try their Mac n cheese. Chelle was very sweet and gave us some sweet potato pie to try which was very delicious! I hope she decides to sell it regularly!

I will start off by saying I will definitely be returning. Customer service was Excellent! The atmosphere is vet warm and inviting, felt like I was visiting a relatives house to pick up some delicious food! I ordered the chicken and waffles, and I must say I I was very satisfied. The chicken was fried to perfection and was drained perfectly. The strawberry mimosa was tasty. I would recommend going online to check hours of service. And I do know the last order should be placed before 1:30.

We came for a brunch experience and had a fantastic time – the food was expertly curated, and tasted perfect!!! The chicken and waffles were so unbelievably well done and deliciously crisp. We also go a strawberry lemonade and 100% came to the conclusion that it was the best we’ve had. The service and staff were unbelievably accommodating and made the experience exceptional – if you’re ever in seattle near this restaurant, do yourself a favor and please order something from them and give them your time - It is so amazing here!!! 10/5 stars- we will absolutely be coming back again and again

Can't say enough good things about Drae's. Great atmosphere, great service and great food. Very low key interior but the service was better than most places I've been that are twice the price. Made us feel right at home and will definitely be back.

The best grits I’ve had outside of Georgia and the best tenders I’ve had in Seattle (sorry Ezell’s). My kid loves the Mac and cheese. When I wasn’t eating meat I even tried the mushroom Philly and it hit the spot too! You can’t go wrong.

Stopped in today for a loaded grits bowl, it’s so good you don’t even need the hot sauce! They are so accommodating and friendly with fair sized portions. If you’re going to spend money on takeout these days make sure to give it to small businesses like this that matter!
