What people say, in short
Off the Rez is recommended for Indigenous food, both at the Burke Museum cafe and more generally across the business. One diner particularly praises the wild rice bowl at the Burke, and another names fry-bread tacos in the University District. A commenter recommends fry bread and another likes the succotash, without specifying a service location. Those general recommendations are not exclusive to the museum cafe. One dissenting commenter questions how distinctively Indigenous the broader menu is.
