We loved this place! We were very unsure where to take our family in Woodinville since we have small kids. This place was perfect- great food, great atmosphere, great prices. Everyone was smiling and happy. Highly recommend & we will be back!
Pros: *Only vaccinated inside*. Good food. Nice atmosphere.Cons: Music was so loud on speakers, I couldn't hear 1/2 of our conversation. Quite pricey for a walk up order place. Example $16 for grill cheese and tomato soup. ? Didn't order beer or liquor, as prices were beyond high. But cute drink names.
Everything obout our experience seemed inefficient and hectic. There was a sizeable line to check-in, then we were seated, pointed to a QR Code menu and instructed to enter another line to place our order and pay. We eventually accomplished all that and food was delivered to our table in a timely manner. After that we were ignored until they wanted to clear our table. No inquiries, no drink refills, etc. All that may have been tolerable if the food was above average, but that was not the case. Both of us had sandwiches, and neither were exceptional. The grilled cheese and tomato soup arrived with what I would guesstimate was a quarter cup of soup. And it tasted odd too - a smoked tomato flavor that was overpowering - simply not enough tomato flavor shining through. Nothing was absolutely awful, but it was far from exceptional. In the end I doubt we will choose this venue again.
I came here for my birthday last weekend and I had the most amazing experience. We did outdoor seating and it was so cute out there! It was pouring rain and the amazing staff got soaked carrying out food over but they protected it with spare serving platters. Our servers Sue and Mackenzie made sure that we were taken care of. They were warm and friendly and made a point to make sure we were comfortable and happy. Definitely coming back for the awesome staff❤️
Had a horrible experience. Forgot my mask (am vaccinated and negative test a day ago) and owner says I need one. I ask for a mask and she says " I am not in the mask business". Really? While over 20 people are mask-less, eating, laughing, and talking all around. Ok sure, if you are that worried then close your restaurant and get off your power trip.
I can’t find anything special about the commonsWe went for a brunch On Saturday! Service is nice and people working there are helpfulWe couldn’t find anything special about the food, it wasn’t so tasty we know better places with more delicious foodIt is still Corona Era so maybe it’s one of the reasons but honestly I will not give it another tryWe ordered grilled cheese and normal breakfast eggs. Sausage tastes so bad and not freshThe french fries were the best thing, Actually the best french fries ever and that’s the only delicious item from the whole mealI really hate to write bad reviews but it is what it is :(
Will not visit this place again. Segregation at its finest. Either show your vaccination card or sit outside. Oh but you can walk inside to order without a card. No thanks.
plenty of outdoor dining space. Food is served fast
Got the spicy fried chicken sandwich with shoestring fries. The sandwich was neither spicy nor fried (at least that's what it felt like) and the chicken itself was dry and overcooked. The fries were ok, but could have use some better seasonings.Service was good, perhaps the best part of the entire experience.Definitely not worth the price - many better options available within driving distance.
Amazing experience recommended to us by two fabulous and random people we met wine tasting at Pike Market. Great hospitality at all the places we went and great wines. We will be back again.

Loved our visit at The Commons for brunch. They take Covid guidelines and the food was delish! Would love to come back for dinner and drinks some time. Don't love having to wait in line to order at the counter but other than that, service was great and wonderful staff!
My husband and I ate here on our recent trip to Woodinville. The food is consistently good (we ate here one previous time). Would highly recommend.
Unfortunately we used to love this place but I will never support a restaurant who believes in segregation. I really thought we have came further than this. Sit outside like dogs!
They demand proof of vaccination even though their own staff are not fully vaccinated. They are segregating based on medical status, so if you’re not vaccinated you can only eat outside. Unvaxxed kids are expected to wear a mask AT THE TABLE if they’re not eating. This is a ridiculous violation of customer privacy and HIPAA, not to mention undignifying.Also, the service is terrible, and a 20% “service fee” is added to the bill, and you’re still expected to tip on top of that.A business that treats its customers like this does not deserve to stay open.
Menu is small, but delicious. Also, they can actually make a decent espresso. Get there early because the parking lot fills up very quickly.
