Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce. Both food items were tasty and satisfying.  My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too.

Dinner at Stellar Pizza

Everyone has that go to restaurant where they love the food and keep returning.  Mine is Stellar Pizza in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood.  Their pizza is top three for me because of their unique, spicy red sauce and their crust.  I always get the pepperoni pizza, so to mix things up this time I tried the Fildalgo Four Cheese which had Mozzarella, shredded Parmesan, Provolone and Gorgonzola cheese.  My first bite was a bit too cheesy because my palate had to get used to the flavors.  But the next bite and the next and the next was oh so good and memorable.  The pieces were big so I saved my second slice for later when I ate it cold which also tasted awesome.  The atmosphere is eclectic and edgy but also family friendly.  The food is all fresh and cooked to order and they use local ingredients, too.  I will also love you, Stellar Pizza.


I sipped on a Stellar Margarita which tasted delicious and hit the spot.

My husband drank a Long Island Iced Tea.

I also like their kid's menu for the little ones and my little ones shared a plate of Macaroni and Cheese.

My husband started with an order of the spicy chicken wings.

As my appetizer I got the Caprese Platter.  I liked the baby mozzarella and the fresh tomato and basil.  The capers added a unique touch and you can't go wrong with any of Stellar's bread products. 






Cheese, cheese and more cheese!  The Fildalgo Four Cheese Pizza.  Stella Pizza is located in Georgetown at 5513 Airport Way S.
