5 Point cafe, open 24 hours. Huge portions for cheap, best local dive bar greasy spoon. (an Anthony Bourdain fave). The fried cheese curds are awesome, have them with honey.

Of course there is also Beth's Cafe, The Mecca, and The Hurricane.

I'm looking forward to seafood in Seattle, hopefully someone will have good suggestions

McCormick & Schmick's-$$$
Anthony's Pier 66-$$$
The Crab Pot-$$
Ivar's Acres of Clams-$
Ivar's Salmon House-$$ (same chain as Acres of Clams, but finer dining)
Salty's on Alki-$$$

some of these places like for you to make reservations (like McCormick, Ivar's Salmon House, and Salty's) but they will do their best to seat walk-ins.

I will toss it out there for anybody that loves a good cured meat sammy...Salumi is Mario Batali's family owned eatery, they also sell meats by the pound. They are open 11-3:30 Tuesday thru Friday. Line up early if you want to try it.

are these all seattle????

Thank you guys for the suggestions....I'll def be checking them out.

A little off topic, how bout any boating trips into the Pacific from Seattle? I'd love to take a trip a little off shore, maybe see some wildlife. (Orcas ) I know it will be cold, but I'm usually fishing into December here in NY into the Atlantic...even January if the Cod are there

Reading Terminal Market is UNREAL! Try to go when the Amish section is open as they have some incredible stuff. The Amish Diner has the best breakfast on the East Coast, nyc included. The eggs, milk, bread.... all of it, is fresh off the farm 100 miles north.

Reading Terminal Market: if traveling to philly... and if you like food... the reading terminal market is one of the great foodie spots in the country and is definitely a must stop if you have the time... the weekends it gets insane packed but since these shows are on weekdays this is a great opportunity for you to check it out... they have everything you could imagaine, plus more...

frankly any roast pork sandwich in the city is the better chpice then the iconic cheesesteak in my opinion, and dinics at the market is right on top of the list...

http://www.readingterminalmarket.org/

and if you like something a little less crowded, a little smaller, with great food and a great beer selection, check out this little gem in south philly, Hawthornes... i have only been there a few times but i can definitely vouch for this joint

Great thread!

All the pizza places you already know about (Juliana's, Grimaldi's, Di Fara, Lucali, Spumoni Gardens, etc.) plus:

Henry Public: for the turkey leg sandwich -- it's one of the best damn sandwiches I've ever had.
Buttermilk Channel: for Doug's pecan pie sundae -- also, their duck meatloaf is insane.
Bar Tabac: a great neighborhood bistro with great bistro staples (steak frites, duck confit, coq au vin, moules frites, etc.).
Brucie: menu changes every day depending on what's fresh at the market, making for a very special and memorable meal.
Char No. 4, good fatty food and all the bourbon a person could dream of -- the pancakes for brunch are dynamite.
two8two burger, their sauce is the closest thing you'll get to In-N-Out, and their burgers are sized so that you don't feel like taking a nap after eating one.
Red Rose, a classic red-sauce joint.
The Good Fork, one of the best meals I've ever had was here -- worth the trip on the B61, and Red Hook could use your business.
Defonte's, also worth the trip on the B61 -- if you need a boozemop on Saturday, the potato & egg will right the ship (closed Sunday).
Le Gamin, another good neighborhood bistro that's a little closer to Barclays.

PM me for more. I could go on all day.

Any good gluten-free places on the West Coast from San Diego to Seattle?

I added one Gluten free place to the first post, under the L.A section. It is literally 3 minute walk from venue! If you have G.A and are in line all day.....maybe somebody can save your spot and you can go grab some grub!

Thanks for all the suggestions, everybody! I'm going to keep updating the first post in case there are lazy people that don't want to search!
