How do you not give them a great review. Always so good. Got the pork sandwich but then also got the pork bowl. If you don't want all the bread and want something a little spicy the bowl is great. The pork is amazing. Tender and delicious. Highly recommend.

I love Paseo's sandwiches! I always get one of their sandwiches when I'm visiting Seattle and they never disappoint. Bread is crispy and fluffy with just enough meat inside the bun. Juicy with amazing flavor too!

This place has plenty of seating, so you go in, order your food, then find a spot. Kind of a fast-casual place, but so good! Supposedly, according to Mr. Kenji Lopez-Alt, this is one of his favorite sandwich shops in the entire US. That's quite a bold statement from someone who loves food so much. This spot did not disappoint. I think of this sandwich sometimes. Famous Caribbean Roast - Juicy, plenty of meat, plenty of sauce. The meat is tender, falling apart, and not dry at all. To add to its' juiciness, they dip it/drench the sandwich in some liquid gold broth, and then on top of that, even add on some sauce! Combine the meat, sauce, broth, with some pickled veggies, this is honestly one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Would consider moving to seattle to eat this sandwich once a month...or more. - Price is also super reasonable, around $14.

Was headed to Seattle & a friend said he had the best sandwich ever " I'm still thinking about it weeks later" Ok like we gotta try that right?! Said classic sandwich was DELICIOUS & messy as reputed. Drinks were yummy, loved the vibe chilling at spacious outdoor area. Week night dinner -was not crowded no wait. Scallops & salmon options for my pescatarians. Tostones and fries were bomb too. Loved it here!

Super good! Customer service is great! They even have a rewards program!! Convenient place!

We stopped by here for a sandwich and it happened to be a day that there was a Mariners game. Despite that the wait wasn't long and when we walked in, we walked right up to order. There is a ton of place for sitting both inside and outside, so it's a great place to bring kids to the family. Parking we got lucky but otherwise I'm not sure where you would park beyond the few spaces reserved outside of this paid parking lot. - -My partner got the Paseo press and it was next level phenomenal. -I don't eat pork much so I got the fish sandwich and it really wasn't that wonderful. We took the sandwiches to go so that could have been part of it, they just didn't seem to travel that well. The bread is really great, but the fish was bland. In hindsight, maybe I should have ordered the shrimp. -We love the yucca fries and the tostones, those were some of the best parts of the meal with the excellent dipping sauces that were flavorful as well. -The habanero wings were soooOOOOO spicy and I eat spicy food all the time. How do normies eat these?!

Came here for late lunch on a Thursday. They have free reserved parking spots for the restaurant! It was my first time trying Carribean sandwiches and I found them delicious!! We ordered the seared scallop sandwich and the pork belly sandwich. So good! The bread was crispy and the ingredients were hot and cooked well. The only downside was that eating them could get quite messy as the ingredients kept popping out. Nonetheless, we used our hands and enjoyed the food very well. The restaurant was spacious and clean. They offered water for self-serve. The staff was friendly. I cannot wait to come back later for dinner and cocktails!

One of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Grilled sweet onions, garlic aioli, jalapeños, lettuce, and a sweet and salty marinated pork belly, with the best crispy bread. I highly recommend trying this place out. It took about 20-25 min for our sandwiches but well worth the wait. Indoor and outdoor seating, cute spot!

Paseo simply isn't what it was back in the "2nd-best-sandwich-in-America" days. If you want that caliber of sandwich you need to go to Un Bien, where the original Paseo recipes live on (and dare I say, have even improved), and perfect preparation is the routine. Neither of those statements is true about Paseo. But - all things considered - do they make a good sandwich? Yes they do. It's just not AS good, in any way, as the sandwich we all know it wishes it was. The bread isn't quite as crunchy, and can be a little spongy. The marinades on the meat, no matter which variety you get, are missing a little je ne sais quoi. The lettuce gets soggier and the aioli is out of balance. The caramelized onions are less caramelly...and somehow less onion-y. Even the wrap jobs are worse - they tend to get onions all over the outside of the sandwich. (Be warned, lunch will be messy.) I know I'm not raving here, but if you've never eaten at either of these two restaurants, you WILL like Paseo. It's good food. It's just hard to justify going when I know what the alternative has on offer. If you're crunched for time, eat here - you won't regret it. If you've got an open afternoon, drive 20 minutes north to Un Bien for what truly must be one of the greatest sandwiches on earth. (Don't expect it to be less messy though.)

Pros: Delicious food, good drinks, friendly staff Cons: Can get busy and parking is odd Details: We have been here a couple times and try to make it whenever in Seattle. This place is highly rated for a good reason, it is one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. We have tried a few kinds and each are incredible. They have good drinks too. The parking situation is a bit odd, I'm guessing because of the stadium? The inside is spacial and has really cool decorations in back. As mentioned, the staff are great.
