After an industry event needed a beer and a hot dog. Only real option in DT Seattle is Shortys. Yes, it is weird, and yes, the bar is high, and yes sometimes the service is off. That said, it is authentic ( if Belltown hipsters can be called authentic in any guise of the word! ). The back room is surreal, with its clowns and old skool chairs. In short, it was exactly what I needed at the time. Be wary of the cheese sauce!
