VERY GOOD! The make their own pasta in house which is soooo yummy! They offer a a good variety of options- all fresh and local! Larch is definitely upscale and classy. There was a different bar side that seemed a bit more casual. We made a reservation which I would highly recommend. The service was great and when they found out we were there to celebrate an engagement they brought out champagne! The cocktails were also inspiring and gorgeous. I would recommend coming to Larch if you want a nicer dinner in Leavenworth. It is well worth it! Our cousins actually drive over from Wenatchee when the want to do go out to a nice dinner :)

We had such an amazing dinner here at Larch, the service was really great and made us feel really welcome. They were able to get us in on a waitlist, since they were packed! While we waited we grabbed a drink at their sister restaurant around the block, also amazing. We got to sit in the cute little bar area and really everything was very unique and so delicious. I had the gojuchang pasta and wow, so different but amazing. The pasta was very fresh and perfectly al dente. Their focaccia bread was warm and salty and great. All of the drinks were very good, and they had lots of recommendations, but you could order off the menu as well. We will definitely be back on our next Leavenworth trip!

Amazing. The focaccia is may be the best single dish in the valley. Pasta is fantastic. haven't had anything I haven't loved. Service is always good. The ambiance is nice in both the bar and the restaurant. Can't recommend highly enough.

Despite arriving without a reservation, we were informed that they couldn't accommodate our party of four and a child. We were redirected to another restaurant owned by the same group with the assurance of a similar menu, but upon arrival, we discovered a completely different menu. Clear communication and transparency about the menu differences would have been appreciated. Overall, it was a frustrating experience that could have been improved with better customer service.Update: Today, we arrived ahead of schedule and secured a reservation for an hour later. We were greeted by a new waitress. The cuisine was outstanding. Changing the review for 5 stars.

Food was incredible. Service was slow but good. My issue comes with what happened at the end. Each person paid for their individual meal. One person in our party had a $65 bill. She paid cash with a $100. The server only brought back $15. My friend asked the server where the other $20 was and he apologized and pulled out his wallet and his folded money and handed her the $20. It definately appeared that he took $20 automatically because if it was an accident when taking money from till, he would have gone back to the till to get the other $20. Very shady in my opinion.

3rd time to Leavenworth and this place is our favorite. We got the new York wagyu and carbonara. The food and service blew us away! Definitely check it out.
Food was amazing! The service was amazing, really amazing! At first glance the place was uniquely cool. They sat us and i felt like i was sitting with others not at our table. Then, i loved it! What a great experience. Everyone loved their dishes. What a great place! You should try.

From the apps to the desserts, everything was incredible. Innovative homemade pasta dishes highlighted pnw ingredients with touches of global flavors. Our group tried almost every dish on the menu and I don’t think you could go wrong. Will 100% eat here anytime I’m in town. Hands down the best restaurant in Leavenworth.
Every dish we ordered was amazing and the staff perfectly paired wine with everything we had. The octopus was incredible! Highly recommend a cocktail and appetizer at their sister restaurant Prusik before dinner at Larch. Can’t wait to come back!

This is supposed to be one of the best restaurants in town. The botanical cocktail was so-so, heavy handed with juice, absolutely no balance. The braised pork shank was tender but all the flavor was in the apple mustarda which was also heavy handed and overpowered the pork. The polenta was dry for supposedly being creamy but otherwise fine. The asparagus was way overdone. Was this Sunday fatigue or typical fare? I won't be going back to find out. I expect a lot more out of a $40 entree that doesn't come with a salad. The shrimp and crab cakes were ok, a little overdone and dry but nothing special. The server was nice.

We are locals and Larch has been our go to since they opened. Unfortunately, our experience last night was a bit of a disappointment. We started with their fabulous Focaccia Bread and of course their Roasted Mushroom appetizer which is always a hit. We also ordered the Crab & Shrimp cakes which we have thoroughly enjoyed in the past. However, the first try was a disaster. I picked up the top cake and discovered it had no filling or bottom! Just an overcooked cake crust. The lower one was a little better but quite overcooked. Our server brought us a new order which was much better. Then we split the Spinach Linguini with Seared Scallops. Scallops are one of my all time favorite foods, provided they're cooked properly. These were not. The scallops were overcooked and the sauce on the linguini was quite salty. The service was fair. They were surprisingly very busy for a weeknight in March including a couple of large tables that arrived about the same time we did. Our drinks took quite a while to arrive. The food arrived in a timely manner, from starters to entrée. We had a bit of a hard time getting our servers attention regarding the crab cake issue and trying to order a second round of drinks. But as it got later and the crowd started to dissipate, our server provided better attention as needed. It was also extremely loud and we had a hard time having a conversation without raising our voices to be heard. We've experienced that level of noise in the past and I know there is only so much that can be done. It seems to be much quieter in the bar area. Overall still a good experience, but not as good as we're used to.
