not really all that cheap nor all that good. there's a reason why you never hit a line at daly's - it's not as popular as they are made out to be. of the several hundred thousand people who live in the greater metro area there are only a handful pining over the future demise of the place. it's a greasy, dirty pit and not in a good way. while i'm not sad they're going, i would like to see something other than a bland office building taking its place. but that's the way of progress.

Just moved to Eastlake earlier this year and I've eaten at Daly's at least once a week since March. Sad that I'd probably driven past it a thousand times before and never really noticed it. When I heard they were disappearing, I was a bit heart-broken. From what I've heard the employees say, they can't find a space with a parking lot for a feasible price, so Daly's is probably done. Too bad, it was one of the few cheap, quality burger joints left in this city. At least Scooter's is still around.

"Redmill, with it's line-out-the-door popularity," remove apostrophe from its, please.

I went to Daly's for the first time because of Leora's review last year. It's better than Dick's or Red Mill (both of which I like), but was not convenient when I was in Wedgwood and is positively inconvenient now that I'm in Rainier Beach. Which is a pity. I hope they figure out a new location -- and if it's within walking distance of Kubota Gardens or Beer Sheva Park, all the better...

I beg to differ about Red Mill's garden burgers, as they are most definitely earthshattering. No joke.
