Before 2002, it was called just the Rusty Nail, but Bellevue diners knew this homestyle restaurant as Joe's Rusty Nail for years. Take a look around, and you'll see why: This spot has serious roots in the community. The walls are hung with plaques and photos of youth athletic teams Joe's supports, as well as other neighborhood scenes. The dining room here probably is much like your own -- there's a hutch crowded with tiny bear figurines -- only much busier.

The menu has quite a few country-style choices, such as homemade meatloaf, and liver and onions topped with bacon. At dinner, the lightly breaded pan-fried chicken is a favorite, with variations such as chicken parmigiana and Chicken MaryAnn, topped with roasted red pepper, portobello mushroom and a light sauce. At lunchtime, try the Devonshires -- turkey, crab cake or chicken topped with Joe's tangy cheddar sauce on Texas toast -- or a sizzling burger with American cheese and salsa. Eat at Joe's? We shouldn't have to tell you twice.
