New American Restaurants near Mill Creek, WA

“Good and fast service, great food and kid friendly...“

“I visited on a weekday afternoon, and I appreciated that it wasn’t too crowded. I was able to use a birthday coupon, which was a nice perk, and all the staff members were super friendly.

As a salad lover, I was pleasantly surprised by how generous and delicious the salad was here! The blue cheese dressing was especially tasty, and the ingredients were fresh. The burgers also had a wide variety of recipes to choose from, which made it fun to try something new. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This place became an instant favorite for me. The size, location and atmosphere is great for a sports grill. We came in for a bite and a beer and both food and beer is great. Sufficient beers on tap that you can try different ones on different visits and they serve cocktails and liquor, too.
Now the standout item: their fries are absolutely amazing. The first time we came in we had a burger and I instantly noticed how well the fries were made, they are a bit like the ones in Europe, crunchy outside, soft inside, not too salty and not overdone, just right.
On our second visit I went for the poutine and even though these have a unique shape, like they are shaved, they are equally as good. They certainly take their fries seriously.
The service is also fantastic. On my last visit, I forgot something at the table and the server came out right after us to make sure I didn't walk away without it. So attentive, great job.
Did I say I love this place ? We'll be back !“

“Denea is absolutely phenomenal here at Mill Creek!!!

Food is what you come to expect at Mill Creek, excellent. Service, what you have come to expect from McMenamins, excellent. Atmosphere check, excellent.

Will come here again!!“

“This is our favorite restaurant in Lake Stevens! They make the best spicy margarita in town, hands down! Amazing food and drinks💕“

“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.“

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

“I mean it was good food for Snohomish, but really it was decent. Appetizers were reasonable, main dishes were good but still missing some zip.“

“We love The Cottage for many reasons. :) The people, the food/drinks and the music!!“

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

“We visit about every 3 months and are from out of town. This has been a definite stop every time we've come to this area. Same great place great atmosphere great staff... the servings are about 50% of what they used to be though. My fish and chips was more of an appetizer than it was a meal. My wife's shrimp Louie salad was exactly that shrimpy; I am full of spinach salad a handful of shrimp graced with a half an egg in one cherry tomato. The quality of the food is excellent as always, but if you're looking for a hearty meal it's definitely not what it used to be. Another victim of the pandemic and the economy!“

“The most fabulous dinner I've had in my lifetime! Service was excellent. We will be back over and over!!“

“My favorite hangout for superb wine, outstanding food and the occasional acoustic music. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive and engaging. Personal favorite wine is a bottle of Tuttorosso to accompany Chef Nick Ames delicious and attractive plates. Nick updates his menu every week and the food is a bargain for the quality of his offerings.“

“Attended an event on 6/28 catered by Barking Frog. Their set-up is clean and professional looking (you WANT their food truck in your parking lot); their staff is courteous and friendly; they offered a diverse and interesting menu; and our plates were prepared quickly. Oh, the food... top notch! I had the turkey club, my daughter had the mac & cheese... both with their crispy, delicious french fries. AMAZING!“

“Love it. I will go back and recommend“

“Fun place but very very noisy ! Hard to hear. Food was excellent. I had their fall regular pot pie & arugula salad, excellent with hazelnuts. Pot pie was delicious but very black peppery! Also had ravioli…. Reportedly excellent.“

“Little known gem very worthwhile checking out. Super tasty menu items. Be sure to ask for a glass of their exclusive, custom-label Pancho Villa Cab (by Barrage Cellars).“

“Literally my favorite place to go. I don't drink. I come for the darts and stay for the food. Rarely do I spend more than 35 for the two of us. My girl brought me because they pour well and have great priced drinks. I thoroughly enjoy the atmosphere and the touchtunes.“

“I spent the better part of three years building an amazing community of friends and people I can easily call Family at this sports bar. There are many incredible regulars here who will always made me feel warm and welcome. Every single bartender at this bar will give you a great pours and excellent service. The owner Loc runs a dart league with four dart boards Wednesday night around 7pm and there’s a large pool table with many rotating players to challenge. They have shuffle board, beer pong and even some video games you can play on one of the TVs in the back as well. Occasionally they host raffles, fundraisers, occasional live music and any Seahawks game is always a good time. There’s a beer garden out front where you can socialize and smoke. Truly an amazing dive bar if you read this far I hope you’re already putting your shoes on and about to head over.
Cheers!

Parking: I’ve seen people complain about parking here but the parking is always a little tough between 6 and 7 when people are getting dinner but spots free up in a minute if you’re patient. I’ve only had to park on the side street one time in three years. It’s also quite entertaining to watch people park from the beer garden“

“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! Servers too❤️ Enjoyed watching few TVs sports with closed captioned that amazing place. 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. If you don’t like sautéed Brussels sprouts you l***** Smile love that place!“

“Been here many times, always fun !!!“

“I can’t say enough great things about the staff here. My grandparents used to stay here every summer while traveling from Arizona after they sold their home here. My grandpa passed away recently and the staff treats my grandma so well. It means so much to our family that she has such a great experience here. Matt in the bar is so friendly and makes the best drinks and the food is always amazing (the salmon Caesar is my favorite but everything is good). Thank you everyone“

“The food was very good. Me and my wife likes the atmosphere, very clean and the price was very affordable. Not much entree selection we were told by the cashier because they are short of staff. For $8.95 @ person you can not go wrong for a well balanced menu. You get a soup, entree, dinner roll, salad, dessert, drink (cold or hot) and condiments.“

“Went here tonight with family for dinner and drinks. I had the boom boom shrimp and the beef stew and WOW! Everyone was super happy with their delicious meals. There was plenty of seating, and the service was great. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for good food and good vibes.“

“Came in for drinks and light appetizers- octopus was amazing as well as the cauliflower leek soup. Their espresso martinis are the best I’ve had anywhere. Service is always great here - the staff is always helpful and very friendly! I’ll be back again!“

“Delicious chicken cranberry salads!!!! We were there on a day of torrential rain! Waiting to figure out how we were going to get to our car without being drenched, our waiter arrived next to us with a huge umbrella! He walked each of us out through the rain to the car!!! Who does that??? Could not thank him enough! A true gentleman“

“craft cocktails and Barrel aged beers“

“This is one of my favorite places to stop and get a drink, food, or meet up with friends! Their cocktails are amazing, hiding the taste of alcohol while still getting the job done! They also have yummy mocktail options for my friend. The staff is all super nice and the bartender Courtney is super fun and gives great recommendations! Overall great atmosphere!“

“This is the best breakfast / brunch place you will find in 50 miles. The peanut butter pie, the pie just in general it is another level. The eggs benedict is world class. The staff is super sweet, It is my go-to when friends come to town and want breakfast or brunch. I would recommend this to anybody. You will not be disappointed.“

“My favorite place for some high quality sit down service in Bothell new town area. Very clean, always friendly, all menu items I have tried are great. Local beer selection is great quality and well selected. Super local support as well. Thank you Stack 571.“

“Many choices in the area to eat - and drink - yet this is my ‘go to’ place when traveling in a town that has a Nordstrom store.
Excellent food - have tried almost all the items on the menu - and never have been disappointed! ?
Service was great ? and will return. Apologies, no photos today as finished the yummy Chicken Tacos ? before I knew it!

PS. Make sure to order the crostini’s - did get a photo today- on the side. Very tasty and can take them home! ?“

“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. :(“

“our server, Bali, was wonderful and the food is really good!“

“Very comfortable and friendly environment“

“Got the Cajun burger with the garlic parm fries and a mimosa. It was really good, mimosa was made with whipped cream vodka but couldn't really taste it. Place can get a little loud, especially if there is football on. But overall a good experience and will probably go again.“

“Absolutely LOVED IT!!!! I went with my partner for prom and the staff was so incredibly nice and they were very quick as well. The food was amazing, we got the garlic cheese appetizer (easily our favorite thing on the menu) ribs and the salmon, all got devoured!! HIGHLY recommend this place!!“

“One of my favorite spots in Seattle, family owned and run which is huge. The decor? Literally looks like a thrift store exploded in there...I don't feel like that's mean cause I told the waitress/owner and she loved it :) It's pretty small fyi, so 6+ parties might be a moving tables thing. Corned beef hash is my fave and my dad's is bacon and eggs!“

“Favorite dinner-and-a-movie theater. Other newer theaters will have better seats, this is still the slightly older-school classic seating, they just took out every other row to add a "bar" (a 2x8, or maybe a 2x10) for food and drinks. This is a 21-and-over, so you can have alcohol with your movie. All the food is reasonable with prices that match. All in all, a pleasant date night. We look forward to it each time. Enjoy!

Oh, let's add a negative, since this is a Regal theater you get Regal commercials at an obnoxious volume, just thinking about them made me knock this from five stars to four. Really obnoxious commercials, Noovie or some garbage. Google wants an update, still obnoxious commercials before the trailers, but it's still my favorite "dinner-and-a-movie" theater.

Update 2024: no stupid Noovie commercials today, yay! Still a good number of ads, but at least I wasn't insulted. Looking forward to our next visit!“

“The ambience is wonderful, the staff is friendly and helpful, the food was good…but our 4-person group had to wait over 30 minutes to get our food!

This resulted in one of my friend’s food arriving cold. She rarely complains, but this time she did because her omelette was cold. Thankfully, they prepared a new omelette for her.“
