American Restaurants in Washington – Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives

American Restaurants in Washington

When Guy Fieri brings his iconic red Camaro to Washington State, he uncovers a treasure trove of American comfort food that keeps locals coming back for more. From 2009 to 2021, the spiky-haired host has featured 14 restaurants across the Evergreen State, with hot spots concentrated in Richland, Tacoma, and Seattle. These establishments have earned an impressive average rating of 4.4 stars, proving that Washington knows how to deliver bold flavors and generous portions.

Among the standouts, Slim’s Last Chance Chili Shack & Watering Hole in Seattle leads the pack with a stellar 4.6-star rating, serving up hearty bowls that have earned Guy’s stamp of approval. Over in Richland, both Frost Me Sweet Bakery & Bistro and The Folded Pizza Pie have captured diners’ hearts with 4.5-star ratings each. While 8 of these featured spots continue to welcome hungry customers today, 6 have unfortunately closed their doors—a reminder to visit your favorites while you can. These Washington gems represent the heart and soul of American dining that Triple D celebrates.
