A Seattle institution. Cheap burgers and oh-so-good fries. It's a drive-in with walk-up windows; no indoor seating. But grab a couple of "specials" and head to Cal Anderson Park to people-watch. Yum.

Convenient location, big selection but its high-volume (no pun intended) supply chain translates into longer waits & less personal attention. For some, Ponder (1 block from Ike's) is a better option.
