About Cedar + Elm

Cedar + Elm is a hidden gem in the Seattle area, ideal for any occasion. The menu features a variety of Pacific-inspired delicacies, with the caramel tart being a standout dessert. The beautifully renovated space transports diners back in time, creating a unique ambiance. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with outdoor tables perfect for enjoying meals with pets. Guests have enjoyed a range of dishes including oysters, steak, pork cheeks, and salmon, all served with attentive and timely service. The restaurant often highlights dishes like beef tartare, bread, and salad, which are consistently delicious and made with fresh ingredients, some sourced from the chef's on-site garden. The breakfast experience is especially noteworthy, with a large drink menu and attentive service, making it a memorable farm-to-table experience. Recent reviews mention the excellent French toast and wagyu brunch burger, along with the mushroom frittata and smoked salmon sandwich, all praised for their good flavor.

Visitors have noted that while the lunch menu is somewhat limited, featuring options like a burger, steak salad, and Cod N chips, the overall dining experience remains delightful. The ambiance can feel a bit more sterile than expected, but the experience is positive. The location is considered cool and somewhat off-the-beaten-path. Service is praised for being attentive, and drinks are described as top-notch and photo-worthy. The restaurant offers a truly special meal, including a unique birthday dessert inspired by fresh garden ingredients. Parking options include a few spots next to the entrance with valet, as well as a lot downstairs at St. Edward’s State Park (discover pass required). Cedar + Elm is recommended for small get-togethers, dates, or business lunches, providing a wonderful dining experience with fabulous food and beautiful grounds.

Like most high end restaurants it’s about presentation and not portion . But the portions are fine. We enjoyed steamed clams that had the...read full review

I'm giving it a big HELL NO!
I've had the worst experience EVER ordering a take out meal from your restaurant. I paid $23 for fried chicken and all I got was 2 tiny pieces of burned chicken and 1 piece of Belgian waffle drenched in thick syrup. By the looks of what I got in the box it looks like I was given someone else's left over. I wanted to treat myself for something nice since it was Easter.
