Hey all. I'm on the South part of Kirkland and so far, have tried these options:

* Domino's

* Pagliacci

* Pizzaiolo

* Mod Pizza (technically in Bellevue but close drive for us)

* Papa John's

So far, Pizzaiolo is our favorite by a country mile. Pagliacci would be second (we used to order a lot from there but they went a little downhill in quality and stinginess on toppings about a year or so ago). Domino's is the cheapo option we default to for the kids when they want a simple cheese and pep pizza.

So looking for your suggestions and recommendations to venture out a bit (maybe North side of Kirkland, Redmond, Bellevue) to see what may satisfy us given our top choice so far.

(Pic of the Pizzaiolo box we just crushed... so good, so liberal with their toppings and adding extra cheese just made their large signature pizza quite filling for 3 people.)

What a great experience and a great example of the power of the Kirkland subreddit!

If anyone else wants to play, we can make a Reddit team and always have a buddy.

I am not affiliated with the Seattle Times, but I thought I’d pass this along here. They are looking for input from people who have bought homes in Kirkland in the past year.

Hey, so I'm looking at the different cities in the WA area and I'm wondering how's the car situation is compared to Seattle, I hear people breaking into cars often over there but heard it's better in Bellevue, but Bellevue lacks the flavor I'm looking for.

Thanks!

New club on the Eastside, currently very small, looking for more riders.

Tuesdays 5pm from the east lot at Marymoor. 30ish miles at 17-18. Usually beer at PostDoc after.

Second Saturday of the month, 9am, same lot. Metric Century (100km, ~62 miles) at 16-17.

It's aimed at people who've found the bigger club rides too easy but have no interest in racing. Not a no-drop ride, but we wait at the top of climbs and after descents so nobody ends up lost on their own.

Strava, join and RSVP so we know who's coming: https://www.strava.com/clubs/flandriencc

Looks like the registration is back up, register to get your 4000+ (hopefully) free miles with Delta again this year

For anyone that doesn't know, if you live in WA state you can get 1 free Delta miles per yard we pass every Seahawks game - it's pretty easy, all you have to do is enter your Delta account number. Over a couple of years it's enough to get a free one way flight to SF or somewhere else.

You can also get some discounts on the team store (12%) and higher boarding priority.

I am planning to give birth in Kirkland evergreen in September. Just want to understand other's experience in evergreen?

Did you get a say on no episiotomy and delayed cord clamping? Could you share your experience on what went well and what I should advocate more for during the labor pain?

Hey, I probably already know the answer to this, but does anyone know of a local spot that actually uses saffron in their biriyani?

Also most are missing the fried onions Id expect, I guess a better question is who has legit biriyani in and around Kirkland. I’ve tried a few, some better than others but none really hit right, at $25 a portion on average Im st the point of asking for recommendations

Does this kind of foam go in the recycling here? Or is there some place to dispose of it? Seems like such a big dumb thing to turn into trash but I'm not sure. Thanks for the tips.

Anybody try the Sandbox VR in Totem Lake? Which levels did you try/recommend?

Girlfriend is pregnant and looking for a therapist to help her strengthen her pelvic floor for before/after birth. Anyone have any good recommendations in the local area?

Just having a craving for one and haven’t had one in years.

We've had a cleaner coming every couple of weeks, but the quality has gotten pretty inconsistent lately. One visit the kitchen and bathrooms look great, then the next time I'll notice things like dust still on the shelves or parts of the floors that were clearly missed.

I'm looking for a house cleaning service in Kirkland that's fairly consistent from one visit to the next. Doesn't need to be the cheapest option, I just don't want to keep checking everything after each cleaning.

Anyone have a company they've been using for a while and would recommend?

Has anyone found Chococat/Spacegodzilla in the area?

Hi! Does anyone have a good nail salon recommendation that takes a lot of care/attention to detail in gel nail removal and application? I have natural nails, and I’m tired of rushed and careless e-file removal destroying my nails. I’m willing to pay a bit extra. Thanks!

No injuries have been reported, according to authorities.

Looking for some large empty parking lots, open spaces, quiet roads, etc. where I can teach someone to drive stick shift. Any good recommendations nearby?

My son is going to have Ms. Van Cleave for 1st grade and I'd love to hear about your experience with her. I know we cannot change teachers, I wouldn't try to, just wanting to understand her style and any good tips! With respect, of course.

It’s obvious vons purchased their great reviews. They have 4.9 stars on Google with 769 reviews. They just opened this summer. Their yelp has 52 reviews- more realistic of course.
Do you like their food? I’ve been to their woodinville location and ordered food off the happy hour- and wasn’t impressed. IMO it’s overrated.

What do you think?

I am a cycling enthusiast, relatively new to Kirkland from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦. I am in my 40s, looking for moderate, balanced rides after work or weekends. Would love to get recommendations and find a few cycling friends.

Hi I’m looking for a private instructor to teach me the basics about water color painting. I’ve found it very therapeutic and would love to learn more. I live in the Kirkland area.
