    Check out Proletariat Pizza and also there's a Full Tilt ice cream there too! Right on that same strip is a bar that looks nice but I can't think of the name but it's like a few down from the pizza place. Also, if you want an awesome burger you must visit Zippy's!!! That is a must do. Then head down the block and grab a beer at Big Al's Brewery. These are all pretty much right in the heart of White Center.

    I'll second a lot of these suggestions: Full Tilt Ice Cream, Zippy's, and La Fondita #2 are all great. I keep wanting to try Proletariat Pizza--I hear great things about them, too.

    Also in White Center, Uncle Mike's Barbecue http://www.umsbbq.com/website/index.php is another place well worth checking out.

    You're not far from Burien, and there are a LOT of good restaurants there. Among them:

    La Costa Mexican (great food, friendly service, potent margaritas, and a kick-ass mariachi band on Friday nights)
    King Wha Chinese
    Grand Central Bakery
    Hey Paisan! (killer sandwiches--try the cheesesteak)
    Taqueria la Estacion (quality taco truck-style Mexican food in an old Taco Bell--I love the irony of that)
    Salva Mex--wonderful pupusas and spicy pickled cabbage

    The bar Soho206 mentions is called "Company", and it's great. Really well-selected liquors.

    Also, do not neglect to visit the taco truck around the corner on 98th between 15th and 16th. La Fondita #2, it's called, and it's one of the best around.
