Rachel's Bagels and Burritos (Lake City) — Restaurant in Seattle

So the food is good. Everything tasted fresh and there was a great blend of flavors. Coming from the southwest I've really missed having good breakfast burritos available.

Having said that the prices are pretty steep for the portion size. I realize their costs have gone up and I hate to mark them down to that but when the small burrito is nearly 20$ (after tax) it's a little disappointing to still be hungry after that. Now brother barrel and Elliot bay (they're neighbors) aren't exactly cheap either (I used to be in Elliot Bay 4-5 times a week but it's just too expensive) and I may just be getting priced out of this area but I doubt I'll be back anytime soon.

If money isn't a concern then by all means I'd recommend Rachel's without...

Note to owner! This place is bangin’!!

There are A LOT of burritos walking the streets of Seattle, not many stand out. Your Chorizo burrito was EXCEPTIONAL! Some of that came from the grilled onions within. The two hot sauces I tried were excellent as well. (I make fermented hot sauce at home)

On top of all that the woman at the register 10/17/24, 11:00 AM, was extremely friendly and well informed on all fronts. Her attention to the customer gave the impression that she was the owner. I say that because she clearly puts in more customer service interaction than someone just punching the clock. ...

We bought two bagels and they were both very salty. On top of that, they have a lot of rules for just being in the space, like being silent and not making phone calls. The lady told us we couldn’t do work at the place, I personally think this is weird for a place that is meant for breakfast and has a coffee shop like atmosphere. The lady at the register was also a bit rude as she did not greet us when we walked in or when we walked out. If I could, I would take my tip back. Will be giving the one in Ballard a try before giving up...
