To me, paying $50 for a simple steak with fries is ridiculous. The wine was good, and the atmosphere was great. The salad was awesome. Value? Not really.

My excitement to experience afternoon tea at the Cedar and Elm quickly dissolved. The format was clunky, service lacking, food underwhelming and I couldn't hear myself think let alone chat with my table partner. Save yourself some coin and try somewhere else.

I had no idea Cedar + Elm was in the neighborhood. A great value for nicer dining. The staff is awrsome.
Michelle
Amazing. A memorable meal from the food, vibe, cocktails, the staff. Awesome! This will be on our regular rotation going forward.

Had a good tea time at Cedar+ Elm, liked the overall vibe and service was fantastic. Given the cost, was expecting a bit more food and holiday vibe. Based on the provided menu we had to figure out what was what for savory food and there was no description for the baked goods. Would have been nice to have had that information provided.

It was a little chilly in the dining area. Otherwise, a pleasant experience, reasonable value. Our order was incorrectly prepared the first time. Once reprepared, it was quality food. Confidently plan to explore Cedar & Elm but if allergies are a thing, be cautious and emphasize care for the requirements.

Celebrated my wife's birthday with family. We chose the tasting menu with wine pairings and were absolutely delighted. We really appreciated the chef coming out to introduce each course and our server described the wines perfectly. Everyone came away warm and extremely happy. Truly a happy birthday! Thanks

The food was fabulous but the dessert took forever to come, the coffee was cold and we never did get our dessert wine even though we paid for it. But Cedar and Elm was busy and we did love the dinner.

Really phenomenal Thanksgiving dinner experience. Loved the family style service & the delectable selection of food. The wine pairing was fantastic & the piano entertainment was lovely.

This was a wonderful Thanksgiving experience. The service was attentive and responsive and the ambience made the experience special. It was quiet and elegant and not over crowded. The holiday decorations helped to warm up the environment. Food was good but some dishes were better than others and didn't come out evenly warm. It didn't detract from the experience but something to consider for the future. I'm glad we decided to do this instead of cooking.
This was a nice surprise. We expected a nice thanksgiving dinner. But this experience was superb. Better than expected though spendy. We would eat here again for a special occasion.
Matthew
Great as always. Tied for best gourmet food in north Seattle suburbs, outside of Juanita Cafe. I'm always surprised why this place isn't busier. If anything, service is a little too attentive in clearing plates, and can break up dinner conversation. But a very small nitpick.

This was my second time dining at Cedar & Elm, and it was just as fabulous as my first visit! The service is efficient, but at the same time the dining experience felt leisurely and not rushed. My husband and I came for the Beaujolais event; there was a special themed menu to compliment the wine. We ordered the Beaujolais flight (that came with four 2 oz pours of different vintages), winter greens salad, pork Schnitzel and pickle, Wagyu bavette steak frites, and the toasted marshmallow creme brulee. Not a single bite was left behind! The cuts of meat were outstanding, perfectly tender and juicy. I loved the tartar and bearnaise sauces that accompanied the meat dishes. The creme brulee was perfection as well! Note -- the restaurant changes the flavor of the creme brulee for each season. They come up with some pretty unique flavor combinations and IMO is a must-try for dessert. The ambiance is very serene and intimate. This would be a fantastic place for a date night or a small group celebration.

I tried out the Beaujolais dinner, and it was spectacular! Our service matched. What an incredible kitchen.

This was a quick change to this restaurant for a birthday. Enjoyed the food, service and ambiance for lunch. Valerie was very cordial and attentive to our needs. It was very much appreciated.
