Food Guide Near UW Seattle! Best Dishes at Each Spot 🍜✨

1️⃣ Araya's Place Vegan Thai that’s seriously tasty — even without meat! First time: Tom Kha soup rivaled popular non‑vegan spots. Second time: Lunch set — affordable and delicious. They turn simple ingredients into something special. 2️⃣ H‑Mart Grab & Go Perfect for solo dining on a budget. Salmon sashimi, salmon salad, kalbi, beef bowls — all under $15 and just as good as sit‑down restaurants. 3️⃣ Xi'an Taste Go‑to orders: Big Plate Chicken (huge portion — can last two meals) and the Three‑Qin Combo (liangpi, roujiamo, soy milk). You can’t go wrong with these. 4️⃣ Sumo Sushi & Grill AYCE – UW All‑you‑can‑eat made for solo explorers! Try the mini sukiyaki, short ribs, and salmon sashimi — great variety without breaking the bank. 5️⃣ UDON My personal favorite ❤️ Always order: Niku Dip Udon (sweet onion & beef) + karaage (unexpectedly amazing fried chicken). 6️⃣ Pho Shizzle Pho is solid — no surprises. But the Hainanese Chicken Rice is the star — cozy winter comfort food. Honestly, the rice might be better than the chicken! 7️⃣ Korean Tofu House Express The express menu = great value. Beef Bulgogi K‑Rice Bowl (huge portion) or Japchae (balanced protein + starch + veggies). #UniversityOfWashington #UWEats #SeattleFood #NEU #ComfortFood #SeattleLife #BudgetEats #StudentMeals #FoodGuide
