Talarico's is a nice pizza joint in West Seattle that you get slices of pizza as big as your head at happy hour for $3.50. Seriously the slices are as big as your head and you have man 'flavors' to pick from I like the margarita or the olgvia or how ever it's spelled, the one with arugula and goat cheese. They have meaty ones too and a Cesar salad and garlic bread available at happy hour too both are $4.00 I believe.
For drinks you have your option of beer (draft) $3.00, well drinks at $4.00 and champagne at $4.00 as well. Not bad, you could easily have dinner at happy hour for less than $10.00 here and many times I've done just that. It's not the greatest but it's not the worst either. As a side note at night they have karaoke, trivia, movie and live music sometimes so if you stick around until the evening there's something going on, unfortunately I can't remember if there's a late night happy hour.
Over all I'd give them a 3.5 our of 5.0 cheers.

Boka in Downtown Seattle
I enjoy going to Boka's for their happy hours it's a nice, clean bar with a really cool light wall that changes colors all night long. They also have a cool ice bar though I'm not one to sit by it because it's too tempting to play with it.
Their happy hours are Monday to Friday from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm and they offer both food and drink specials and they have a late night happy hour as well from 10:00 pm - 12:00 am.
Their food specials are a pretty good deal, half off all urban bites and eats the mac 'n cheese is ok but the truffle fries are great and for $3.25 and $3.00 respectively you can't go wrong. I've been told that the Waygu beef burger and truffle fries for $6.50 is the best deal but I didn't try it.
For drinks you can get well drinks for $4.75, draft beer $3.00 (mmm Stella!) and your pick of red or white wine for $5.00 a glass.
When you're looking for a place to kind of get away and enjoy happy hour is a calm, clean environment go to Boka, plus the ladies room is awesome and they have Molton Brown hand soap and lotion!
Overall I'd give Boka 4.0 cheers out of 5.0.

Cafe Metropolitain in Capitol Hill
Went to Cafe Metropolitan for happy hour last month. Funny thing is they had happy hour but there wasn't anything listed for me to figure out what days/times/specials were. I take that back on the board behind the bar they have their drink specials listed but I still don't know the days or times or if there are food specials.
The plus for Cafe Metropolitan is the fact that the inside looks like a replica of a cheesy Vegas hotel eatery, it's very entertaining.
Over all I'd give Cafe Metropolitain a 3.0 cheers out of 5.0.

Calamity Jane's in Georgetown
I went to Calamity Jane's a while ago to meet some friends for happy hour. I don't get to Georgetown much because it's kind of a forgotten place to me but I was invited so I went.
They have happy hour Monday to Saturday from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm with food and drink specials. Drink specials are cans of Hamm's for $1.00, microbrews on tap and Wells $3.00, and a buck off of all boozes and wine. I went for a Duwamish tonic which was blueberry stoli, lemonade and a pomegranate float, it was tasty and deadly that's for sure.
The food specials are your choice for just $3.66 pulled pork sliders, gyoza dumplings, hot chicken Wings, and Mozzerepa which was interesting, fresh mozzarella and basil sandwiched between two basil Johnny cakes and served with marinara, like I said it was interesting. The pork sliders and gyoza were my two favorites that I tasted that night.
Service was great and the bartender keep separate tabs for everyone which was great considering the size of our party.
A word of caution when coming here parking sucks, so start looking early unless you drive a motorcycle than you can just park on the sidewalk apparently, I saw more than one motorcycle park on the sidewalk.
Over all I'd give Calamity Jane's a solid 3.5 stars the food didn't wow me and it's kind of our of the way with limited parking.

Denunzio's in Pioneer Square
So I'm back in town for a while and finally caught up on real life stuff now back to happy hour reviews.
A while back I heard that Denunzio's down in Pioneer Square had happy hour. I went with a friend and we walk in and ask and are told they did not have happy hour. As we begin to walk back up the stairs to leave Lugigi tells us that for us there will be happy hour!
$4.00 wines red or white and $4.00 plate of food, consisting of pasta, chicken, bruchetta, sausage, polenta and I can't remember the other one. We tried some pasta, bruchetta and the polenta, if you don't like bell peppers let them know because every dish was smothered in them but the food was ok.
The place is in the basement of a building and kind of has a fun house look and feel to it, it's not some place I'd go again for happy hour unless I needed a good laugh, Lugigi is one funny man and he can sure turn a shitty day into a not so shitty day just by talking to you.
Over all I'd give Denunzio's a 2.5 cheers our of 5, the food nor the wine did much for me and I have no idea what their real happy hour days/times are.
