Marination Station (@curb_cuisine) is open for business!

It was opening weekend for Marination Station in Capitol Hill Seattle this past weekend.  The location is great, but also a little quirky.  Marination Station makes it home on the corner of Broadway and Pike above the QFC grocery store.  

It also happens to be next door neighbors to a most baffling Chinese restaurant, Little Shanghai.  Baffling because that place has been open for years,is never busy and yet somehow it's still around...just a bit suspicious.

 

Unlike its neighbor however, Marination Station is going to have no problems staying busy.  I had the chance to stop in this weekend to check it out.

Inside are a few nice touches, like the quotes on the fridge.

And of course, Kamala Saxton (one of the owners) was there front and center!

You should know by now that I am a vegetarian, although I can appreciate how mouthwatering meat dishes look.  I can say first hand that the Sexy Tofu Tacos and the Kimchi Fried Rice were full of flavor!  As for the meat options, I got a couple of quotes from a few anonymous carnivores:

"These [Kalbi beef tacos] are so good! Are you sure you don't want one?"

"Wow, wow! Heaven..." Referring to the Kalua Pork sliders.
