New American Restaurants near Kenmore, WA

“We had lunch at Cedar & Elm a few months ago and had a great experience. But Christmas lunch today was a major disappointment. The website said “choose from either our five-course tasting menu or our regular menu”. We arrived for our 1:30 reservation, were seated late and then told only the brunch menu was available. :(“

“This was the best dining experience EVER!! The chef and cook staff are amazing. It’s a small kitchen but what they create together is wicked good. No words are had to describe!! If you can get in, do yourself a favor and go💜“

“Extraordinary food. Great service!“

“Always amazing food and the bartender can make anything you want perfectly. It’s my go-to spot for a casual but fancy dinner.“

“Such an amazing restaurant, great staff and delish food.“

“Amazing staff and Tommy Patrick is a wonderful host.“

“This place is amazing. The ambiance is dark and sexy, the staff is beyond welcoming, and the execution of the dishes is consistently on point. The menu is fun and hits from eclectic to classic. My wife and I have been here twice, and both times they slipped us a thank you dish. Normally we like to try different places, but 2120 is a place we’ll go back to again and again. Cocktails are inventive and complex. I have one gripe, I’d love to see this place expand to an international wine list, cause if they do this well at what they already do, their international wine choices would prob be exceptional. Owen Kotler Selections would be a great fit here. Shout out to Jason the Gm and our server was Will (I believe, sorry homie, strong cocktails blur my memory). The desserts man. It’s like everyone here really loves what they’re doing, and intense scrutiny goes into each dish the comes out of that kitchen. Top restaurant in Seattle for sure. More affordable than most too. Much love guys, well done!“

“We had an incredible dinner here during our trip to Seattle! The service was absolutely outstanding! (Dillon and Rita!) The cocktails were super unique and well executed. One of the best restaurants in Seattle! Can’t wait to come back! #GOAT“

“Great Seattle neighborhood restaurant. I wish I lived here so I could come here more often“

“I’ve had one of the best fine dining experiences in Seattle here at Copine, even better than Canlis.

Seattle cuts loose to a lot of fine dining experiences, especially a lot of the restaurants here do not pay attention to detail, or service usually comes subpar. I would say Copine really focuses on the basics of making an experience for you, so it becomes a meaningful experience.

First and foremost, they have a great understanding of French cuisine. Everything tastes very delicate and well thought out. I definitely loved the steak and their meat dishes. I think the chef has way better understanding of cooking meat rather than seafood, so as someone who loves meat, this was an enjoyable meal.

How can I forget about their service! Their staff was thoroughly trained and very knowledgeable. I really loved all the wine pairings and hearing the thoughts behind. Service was above and beyond, and everyone was so kind to make my birthday dinner something special.

There are 2 fine dining restaurants I would recommend from now on: Copine and Cafe Juanita.“

“Frank's is my favorite place in town to get oysters on the half-shell. The vibe is warm, relaxed, and welcoming. The bread with ash butter and sea salt is a favorite. The oysters are fresh, plump, and succulent. The champagne mignonette is flavorful and delicate so as not to outdo the oysters. We tried a seasonal dessert: nectarine, rose, and pistachio pavlova. Everything is delicious. Finally, the service is impeccable. We always feel special when we are here and we can't wait to visit again soon!“

“Nell’s is by far a gem of the Northwest. Their food and service have always been amazing and we just found their quarantine take out is no different. It’s one of those all time favorites where you have fun just reading the menu and then are giddy waiting for your meal. A must try venue that we are grateful to have in Greenlake!“

“Our first night in Seattle. We were able to dine without a reservation. Try their homemade huckleberry shrub!“

“Amazing cocktail bar focused on the wide variety inherent in Amari - think things like Aperol and Campari and Montenegro and Averna and many many others, each unique, with a few loose styles. Jeff the bartender uses his encyclopedic knowledge of the range of Amari to craft inventive cocktails. Even if you aren’t normally a bitter palate person give it a go.“

“Drinks = 5⭐ Totally stopped because of the name, drinks were amazing. We didn't eat, but don't forget to look at your receipt. So many fun things to see on that receipt. We kept it as a souvenir. I don't mean anything about the prices, I just mean keep your receipt and look at it. It's just those little details that make this place super fun.“

“I've come here twice and both times, this place was a hit with two separate friend groups. The dishes we tried were a brisket burger, buffalo chicken sliders, cilantro lime salad, and their street tacos - all were amazing and cooked to perfection! I highly recommend the Strawberry Basil mocktail (it's super refreshing) and their blueberry cheesecake.

This is a great location w/ a lot of parking around it, a great outdoor sitting area, fair prices and friendly staff. Fingers crossed they will extend their lunch hours throughout the week =)“

“America’s 1st all vegetable based Fast Food burger joint. Tasted great, a wonderful variety of add-ons and sauces 😋 . Didn’t try the shakes, but they looked marvelous and a friend highly recommended the Peanut-butter shake!“

“Excellent food. Wonderful service .. Recommend The Shambles steaks… all of them🙃“

“Absolutely epic source for all thing’s DELICIOUS! We are obsessed with the Pate en Croute, meat pies, every flavor sausage, and their perfectly aged cuts of locally sourced meat!“

“This bar is so legit. 🍻

Perfectly chill and relaxed ambiance with plenty of open couch and table seating underneath ambient fairy lights, seriously such a nice vibe.

Drinks are strong and fairly priced, with something for everyone on the menu. Lots of vegetarian options for food.

Def worth a visit for an after work or pre-show drink and food. 🍸“

“If I lived in Seattle def would be my go to restaurant. Amazing service and incredible food. Highly recommend the Dutch Baby. Salmon Salad Sandwich and French Onion Soup! Do you deliver to Ohio?? 😁“

“Interesting cushion of Asian spices/flavoring with western dishes.“

“The food is always very good. We come here every time we’re in town to visit our husky at UW. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. A bit pricey.“

“I love this place! Jenna provided excellent service!“

“Lovely place. The food was okay but not spectacular. We had several dishes. Some were better than others. I love the octopus!. The dates were good, however they should have put the feta inside the dates as well because otherwise they were a little too sweet. Would return because they do change the menu all the time.“

“I was walking in the area looking for a restaurant to get an early dinner when I saw republic. I don't drink so was hesitant but when I entered I was surprised to see such an inviting atmosphere. The staff were friendly, efficient, professional, friendly, and accommodating. The menu was eclectic with unique offerings. I chose the grilled asparagus which was amazingly good , and the beef tips which were tender and delicious. My friend had a cheeseburger which he said was wonderful, and cooked to perfection. It was served with a generous portion of the best fries I have eaten in years. I highly recommend this place!!!“

“Love the food and wait staff! Love the total experience!!! Brunch menu is delicious! Thank you my friend Patricia Corr!💙“

“lIncredible craft cocktails and delicious food (don't forget to try the cake!) But the attention to detail in the beautiful wood design of the bar and fixtures, the decor, and the down-to-earth staff make this my favorite spot in the city!“

“Always a great drink here!“

“Best restaurant in the greater seattle area, friendly service and great food!!!“

“This place is Real, Real Good!! Steak salad is delicious and black and blue burger is next level. Highly recommend. Especially if Taymor is working. Exceptional service.“

“Surrells has a special place in our hearts. We've celebrated multiple birthdays for my daughter, and each time it's been special. Thanks for the great food and hospitality. Truly one of the best fine dining experiences Seattle has to offer.

With gratitude, Alisa and family.“

“This review pertains to a private event we booked at Brimmer & Heeltap. The event was for a college in the midwest to meet with alumni in Seattle. Emma was great to work with to plan our event, especially when our registration exceeded our expectations. They allowed us to use the patio as well for a short time until we were ready to be seated for the program. The food suggestions were wonderful and received many compliments from our guests. Dana took care of us during the event and was personable, helpful to our guests and especially great at continuing to be attentive during our program without being a distratction.
It is a little scary to plan an event long-distance with only pictures to decide if the space is a good fit for the event. Emma and the staff were a huge part in its success.“

“The oysters on the half shell drew me in to Bottle and Bull, and they did not disappoint. While we were there we tried a variety of appetizers, each as delicious. The drinks were flowing and the prosecco kept crisp and cold. The street view from outside was nice with a view of the lake. Enjoyed every bit of this dining experience.“

“hands down best food i’ve had in a decade plus! The hospitality was on point ! Cant wait for a second visit !!“

“The food is exquisite and Chef William is a gem. We can always count on a great meal and having a wonderful night out. We love Violet! We also love sitting at the bar and chatting it up with Kevin. If you want a fun night out, head to Violet! You won’t be disappointed!“

“Great food, fantastic servers and bartenders. Super friendly neighborhood restaurant but also worth a drive if you don’t live close by!“

“Nick's is a wonderful neighborhood joint with an unpretentious menu that offers a range of staples (a burger, a fish, a steak, a vegetable option) but with seasonal tweaks that make it fresh and delicious. Full bar and nice wines. It's a great spot!“

“Great private room for my birthday celebration“

“Incredible service!! So great for a special occasion. Felt like Michelin star quality. The salad lived up to the hype and the pork belly was really yummy. Nathan was a terrific server. We had an amazing birthday dinner“

“Bummer, been going for years to all of her restaurants. Food is excellent, ambiance is five stars. However, for the first time I felt very unwelcome here. My server couldn’t get me outta there faster. I had two kids with me, but they didn’t act up or anything and we had a 5.15 seating. Our server asked me for my whole order with drinks, and when dinner was over asked me if I wanted my check before she asked about dessert. I literally started thinking “do I know her from somewhere else? And does she not like me for some reason?” I had to ask for my dessert to go, as it felt like she didn’t want me to eat it there. Restaurant wasn’t even full when we left. Will put some space between me and whale wins for a while 😥“

“Always have a great meal here! The special tonight was a chorizo cioppino with king crab. So good!“

“Needed a quick stop with little kids, and this place was great. Had a good variety of your basic American entrees for breakfast and lunch, plus a kids menu which is always a big plus for us. Cody was incredibly friendly, patient, and helpful with ordering!“

“Have been a customer and fan since I arrived in Washington over 4 years ago. When it returns, the live Irish Music is fantastic. Great Staff. They are attentive and always let you know you’re welcome in their establishment.“

“The best dinner we've had in years! We shared the Rib-eye , WOW I will be dreaming about those little potatoes too..“

“Atendimento e acolhimento exemplar! Gastronomia deliciosa! Música ao vivo aconchegante! Lugar que inspira a paz, tranquilidade e satisfação!“

“I absolutely love this place. It is one of my go-to spots in Bothell for consistent quality and service. The food and drinks are excellent. I have been there at every hour of the day and highly recommend all of their menus.“

“Went there (the Cove) second times.. had Bloody Mary/sautéed Brussels ❤️The champ.. I ordered to take home ‘Cove quesadilla ❤️Delicious! There nicest economic waiter!

Guess what I asked for the check to pay but he said someone paid oh sweet he gone but wanted saying thank you so much for brighten me up smile.
