Comfort Food Restaurants near Kirkland, WA

“Moss Bay Hall is such a great place for casual get-togethers, business meetings, or just relaxing after hours. It’s always clean, the service is kind, and the environment is fun and welcoming. If you like sports, I guess they’ve got that covered too! The owners are incredibly community-minded and do so much good in the world — you can feel it in the way the place is run. And honestly, who doesn’t love a delicious smash burger? Highly recommend“

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

“Sometimes a place hits just right. If you’re lucky you can get a table by the window for that epic 1st and Pike people watching. Get some braised brisket and appreciate. I liked the space with the exposed wood ceiling and old school windows. Service was timely and friendly. I look forward to coming back to try the baked fontina cheese dip appetizer or the fried bread pudding.“

“The cheese is amazing!!! It's a must each time I go to Seattle.“

“Went there for an event and decided to have lunch, got seated very quickly and the server was a total sweetheart, very friendly and bubbly. Checked on me often and made sure i was doing okay. The food was amazing, i dont know how the chefs cook the bacon but i think i felt my soul leave my body! Best bacon ever!! Will be coming back over and over again. I love the service and food there.“

“We came for the pool tournament and stayed for the steak! Absolutely incredible food! Highly recommended! Hospitality and service were top notch. From the time I gave them my card I was addressed by my first name and treated like a friend. Couldn’t ask for a better night! 5 star!!“

“Food was amazing. Quick service“

“This is my safe haven as a creative with celiac. The food is incredible and full of unique flavors, a rarity when it comes to gluten free. The general atmosphere is always so friendly and cosy, I love stopping by for a quick bite or hanging out getting some work done while snacking on a spam musubi. Thank you Yeobo <3“

“I feel fortunate to live so close to a family-owned restaurant like Cheeky Cafe. Whether you want a sandwich, pancakes, or spam and eggs, Cheeky Cafe has something delicious for everyone and for every day. Gina and everyone here are so friendly, welcoming, and truly wonderful.
Come to enjoy my favorite food any time of day— breakfast!
And if you don’t like breakfast for dinner, my personal favorite is the coconut curry quinoa, and my wife’s favorite is the pasta carbonara. Come find your own personal favorite!“

“Historical saloon with tasty food and drinks. Also, great atmosphere for amazing live music. Highly recommended!“

“I stopped by Oh Dang! in a Cup for a meal and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The food was amazing, and the atmosphere had a really nice, welcoming vibe. I wasn’t sure at first whether I wanted to wait outside or sit by the bar, but I ended up playing a few games while I waited.

Natty was especially helpful and gave me some great recommendations from the menu. Natty and the rest of the Black Cat staff were friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. I really enjoyed my visit and would definitely recommend!“

“Dough Zone did not disappoint! I’m not sure how authentic it is, but it was a great family friendly spot, and I’d rate it 8/10. Everything we ordered was delicious, and every dish was full of flavor. The pork xiao long bao was so good that we had to order another round! 😋 Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving great dumplings and comforting Chinese food.“

“We were looking for a new Chinese restaurant for celebrating Father's Day. Thought we couldn't go wrong with a place that shared a name with me 😉 this is a very good Cantonese restaurant tucked into the corner of the factoria shopping strip.

We ordered chicken fried rice, beef chow fun, Chinese sausage clay pot, shrimp wonton noodle soup, and braised pork belly. Overall the food was very good. The chow fun noodles were lacking on seasoning but the kitchen stir fried them again with a bit more sauce.

I will definitely come back here for future orders. I'm glad to have found this gem in factoria.“

“Nice small space with great Korean hybrid food. 5 stars here for the salad medley and fermented pickles.“

“This is a hole-in-the-wall type of place in Chinatown, which, in my experience, is usually the best. Gan Beo didn't disappoint. The place is just big enough for a bar and a few tables, with the kitchen in the back. The atmosphere is friendly and cozy. The bartender/hostess was very friendly and helpful. We just ordered a couple of simple dishes to go - ong choy (a.k.a. morning glory) in garlic sauce (ong choy is pretty hard to find) and fried tofu. The food was great. I'm sure they would have been even better if we ate there. Will definitely be back.“

“In one word, Delicious! The photos do not do the food justice. The food is fresh, beautiful, quick and scrumptious! The portions are generous. The entire family enjoyed their meal. Highly recommend for bento, poke and the rest of the menu, as Donburi House is a new favourite.“

“House of Eve is located in one of the newer buildings at South Lake Union. Recommended by a friend, the restaurant is charmingly inviting and modern despite being in SLU concrete jungle. Kudos to the designer. All our food is precisely prepared and delicious. Our server is sweet and helpful answering my questions. A service charge of 20% is automatically added. I believe they have validated parking, but we found free street parking on a Sunday.

Fun fact: From the first moment I saw our waiter, I thought that guy is a performer. At the end of our meal, I asked if he was a dancer. He said he is and is just started to get back into it, and that I made his day when I said he looks like a dancer!

The Food:
Salmon and Pesto Sandwich, $32 – 5 Stars
A sizable slab of wild-caught salmon is expertly grilled and justifies the price. Paired with pesto aioli, baby kale, arugula, and tomato, with side of perfect fried potatoes, I can order this dish again and again.

Duck Duck Goose, $36 – 5 Stars
Pan-fried duck breast, roasted carrots, baby potatoes are wonderfully seared and beautifully plated with piping of orange glaze. Everything tastes as good as it looks.

Brussels Sprouts, $16 – 5 Stars
These are deep fried, mixed with sriracha hot honey, and covered with pickled onions. These are mischievously tasty. The goat cheese is served on the size per my request.“

“food was delicious. staff was very professional and courteous and friendly. awesome place to dine.“

“While sometimes it can be a long wait, these guys are super nice and take pride in their service! David Wanda and Stephon today were great. David noticed one of the portions of chicken was small so he gave me an extra free piece. The place is small and its probably a sauna in there while they work, but they do their best! Thanks again!!“

“Best fried chicken. gizzards and okra on the westcoast.“

“Very beautiful and fun experience with a vast selection and large portions.“

“A great rooftop deck for enjoying a cocktail and feeling the city around you. Unlike a high rise rooftop where you’re paying extra for vibey drinks 100-feet above the street, this is a second floor rooftop in the heart of Capital Hill. Also one of the best boozey slushies, and they actually have booze in them. Most of the cities boozy slushy‘s are SLUSHIES with a little booze. These are proper cocktails.“

“The cheese sandwich was so gooey and tasty!“

“Yummy food and great price!! Great for cold Seattle days ~~“

“Sat there with my little personal hot pot, broth slowly bubbling, kind of hypnotic. The garlic pork belly came out still sizzling, smelled rich without being overpowering. Tbh my glasses fogged up half the time but it felt cozy and unhurried.“

“Boiling Point is fantastic, and their service is even better! We had a party of seven, including kids, and the staff took such great care of us. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful dining experience and will definitely be back!“

“This place was amazing!!! will definitely be coming back. Tried some new (to me) dishes and was blown away by the masala puri, the dahi puri and the rave dose. Everything was delicious. Very nice atmosphere, bright and busy but not too loud. The waiters gave us great recommendations, fast service. Favorite restaurant in the Seattle area!“
