Lauren P. "I've had the pleasure of going to Alder & Ash several times - but my most recent visit was for happy hour before an event nearby. Their happy hour seriously can't be beat. They have several $10 bar bites but my absolute favorite that I will sing from the rooftops about, is the Salmon Crispy Rice. It is SO good! And honestly, it's quite filling. Because I'm a glutton for it, I could seriously eat two plates but one plate alone does the job. They also have a selection of $10 wines on their happy hour menu and they're all from the PNW which is a nice touch. The overall vibe here is sleek, sexy, and perfect for a date night or gathering with friends! They have several other menu items that are tasty but if you're pressed for time and looking for a solid HH, look no further."

Danielle G. "With the views of the waterfront, and cute decor inside, this is a beautiful spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner. In fact, we were happy it was open because many restaurants or eateries on Orcas Island are not open seven days a week. New Leaf seems to be one of the only restaurants that is open the majority of the time. which is lucky because the food is also really fresh and delicious. We had breakfast and dinner here two separate days while visiting the island, both times it was delish! Staff is super friendly And accommodating! Next time we're on the island will definitely stop by again.They are attached to The Outlook Hotel which looks Idealic as well!"

I simply googled "wine" in the area and searched for waterfront options. We walked from Gas Works to Bowriders Grill, which was a little tricky. We arrived at the restaurant and found a sign that they're closed because of water issues ? Thankfully we explored further and saw people sitting at tables. Turns out we were actually at the restaurant next door called Westward. It was confusing but you have to walk down a pathway through a shipyard to get there. I'm glad we made the effort to figure it out. Beautiful restaurant with beautiful views and great service and great prices! Highly recommend!!"

If you sit in the front, it does get a bit chilly but there tables upstairs. Staff are friendly and always around. It's a sport bars. They're not mean but they do get busy haha. I recently had the brontosaurus wings and those were so good. Love that it didn't have such a strong vinegar taste. I also always randomly crave the seared broccoli and Brussels sprouts from here so it says a lot about their food."

Courtney L. "The theme of this truck is a global fusion and offers an extremely unique menu. I ordered the Shakshuka ($9), which is their most popular item.A hearty tomato sauce with crumbled chorizo, onion and feta cheese made up the bottom layer of the dish. The sauce was extremely flavorful, and packed a medium heat. It was topped with a bed of kale, which was covered with an egg (requested well-done) and a generous piece of flat-bread. The kale was cooked perfectly - tender and slightly crunchy. Kale normally has somewhat of a bitterness to it, but the sauce made it milder.I did expect the Shakshuka to have a larger portion of chorizo...there was probably about 5x more veggies than meat. The entire meal itself was pretty filling since it included the egg and bread, but it was also very saucy.However, I would consider this one of the healthiest options that I have seen offered by a food truck as it balanced out all food groups!The owner was very friendly by greeting customers and taking the time to introduce the menu items. Overall, a generous lunch portion and savory flavors at a reasonable price!"

The location is great with it's own parking. The interiors are simple but trendy with an open kitchen (unlike Blueberry Hill). We came in to order lunch but didn't want a salad or sandwich. We wanted something from their dinner menu which after asking was accommodated by the chef. We ordered the Double cut Bone-in Bacon, Bourbon Caramel-glazed Pork Chop with Cheesy Hominy Grits and Seasonal Vegetables and the PNW Dungeness Crab and Seafood Boil (since we ordered it to-go, we didn't get the bib, crab cracker and sheet pan with newspaper). Both dishes were delicious and we would ordered these again! One thing we do love about chef Gordon, he is very accommodating and consistent with his food. Maybe next time, we will be dining in."

The drinks were crafted perfectly and the service was spot on. As far as the food goes, the mozzarella sticks were fresh and crunchy, the meatloaf slider (my favorite) were delicious and the taco salad was a good portion and fresh. Overall, no complaints here. There is a pool table in the back as well as a juke box. If you wanna stop in for a couple drinks or some bites, it's a good low key choice."

Wennie H. "Came here for my birthday and was blown away by the food and service. Started with mock-tails that were just okay, little too tart for me. Ordered the tuna noodles, bread and butter, pork belly and the seasonal green salad to start. Pork belly melted in my mouth, the pickled veg were a nice addition to the sweet/richness of the pork. Tuna noodles were my favorite, light and just the right amount of seasoning. Bread was good and warm, the tomato pesto was not good though. The salad was good but the goat cheese was a little too much for me. For mains, we got the steak and the mad thatcher chicken. Each main came with potatoes and the chicken came with a mini salad. The salad on my chicken was personally better than the one we ordered because it was lighter and simpler (lemon, oil). The potatoes were good, a simple roasted one that wasn't heavy handed. The chicken was good but the sauce (the lighter one) was a little too much for me, the lighter green one was good. Partner said the steak was fine, the potatoes that came with hers were good, a solid crispy potato. I love potatoes. We ordered the lemon curd for dessert and that was SO good, the Greek yogurt layer really helped balance the acidity and the cake croutons were a nice textural element. Server also brought macaroons for my birthday. Service was really good and attentive, restaurant is open and clean."

★★★★☆ 3.9 (234) • $$$

Artemis L. "This updated review is a bit belated. My good friend Sammar and I went to Sparrow for dinner last August, so about 5 - 6 months ago now.I continue to be highly impressed by the outstanding service that I have personally received here. Our waiter was the sweetest man.Sammar had some minor stomach issues (she was having those stomach issues earlier in the day as well, so her stomach issues were unrelated to the food at Sparrow) and she was in the restaurant's bathroom for a bit of time. I texted her to see if she was okay, and she texted back that she would be fine but she just needed a few moments.Our waiter (I wish I remembered his name, he looked maybe Italian or Spanish and he had a bit of an accent) asked me how my friend was doing, and if she was okay. He seemed genuinely concerned about her. When I explained the situation to him, and let him know that her stomach issues were not related to Sparrow's food at all, he actually asked if he could bring Sammar a complimentary yogurt which might soothe her stomach. When she came back to the table, I asked her if that was something that she would like, and she was so surprised that our waiter had been so thoughtful. So was I! She enjoyed her yogurt, and she said that it did help a bit with her minor stomach issues.Our waiter was incredibly attentive without being intrusive, thoughtful, welcoming, and on top of things. I felt so appreciative for how well he took care of both of us. I rarely write this, but if I could give more than 5 stars for the service, I most definitely would! 11 stars! Haha.I am gluten-free due to a medical condition, and Sammar does not eat pork. The waiter was attentive to this, and it was marked on our bill when it came. We appreciated that.Sammar and I shared the Ceviche for our appetizer (pictured). It was wonderful. Sammar had a Salmon dish for her main. I don't have a picture of it, and it's not on Sparrow's most current menu - I checked their recent menu to try to find it, in order to remind myself what it was called, but it is not on there, and I cannot recall the name of it without a reminder. Despite her stomach issues, she really enjoyed both our shared appetizer and her main. I had the Scallops and Pork Belly for my main (pictured). It is my personal favorite thing on Sparrow's menu thus far. I love the combination of seafood with a small amount of pork, and the polenta in that dish is superb. Sammar doesn't mind if I eat pork when we eat out; I wouldn't eat it in front of her if it bothered her. I do have a few vegan friends, one of whom cannot stand to watch other people eat meat in front of her, and I do respect that. This is the second time I've had this main at Sparrow, and it was equally delicious both times.This was my first time eating indoors at Sparrow - the first time I ate here, I ate on the outdoor patio, which is beautiful. The second time I ate here, I got take-out. And this third time, I ate indoors. The booths were comfortable, and the indoor ambience is lovely, with slightly dimmed lighting and high booth backs which made it easy to be present with my dining companion without getting distracted by the other diners sitting near us. I personally prefer dining outdoors here. I found the ambience on the outdoor patio to be so relaxing and uplifting. However, dining indoors was very nice though.Overall I am very happy with my experiences at Sparrow, and I would not hesitate to return."

Our cocktails were delicious and the HH fries were actually tasty and a large enough portion for 3 to snack on. The bartender was funny and great service for making our drinks timely. Overall seems like a cute place to hang out, and they have dance classes/dance events right next door (if that's not your thing, you might want to check the schedule to see if there will be a crowd - the bartender said that sometimes people come in before/after those events). Parking is terrible (typical Seattle), but there is a paid lot right across the street for $12 for 2 hours."

Tom B. "In shortGreat cocktails & ambiance, food is solid for the most part. Decent entry into the competition for your special-occasion dining dollar in the south county.In longWe've been excited to try this place since even before it opened--the buzz has been really good. It's right downtown, which, in Edmonds, means parking will be a pain on Saturday nights (until maybe 8:00, when everyone around here goes home). It's in a corner suite on a hill, which means it has a bit of a daylight-basement effect since the streets are rising around it. But the high ceilings and 2 full walls of windows make it feel bright and airy. Lots of nice art up (there's a full gallery next door) and modern light fixtures brighten the space further.Service is relaxed but on point. They seem to staff just-right--a host, a tender, a couple servers, maybe one expo on the floor, for about 40 diners max. We scoured the menu a couple times beforehand, in delighted anticipation. This was my pick for my birthday dinner with family. It didn't even occur to us until we were leaving that the menu does NOT heavily emphasize grilled and smoked things, despite the name of the joint.What we did leave wondering was whether at least one of us should have ordered a steak. Friends have raved about the steaks here, and they're certainly the most-expensive menu items. We poked around the other parts of the menu, with kinda-average results. AsparagusAppetizer, with romesco, herbed goat cheese, and toasted nuts. We got 4 spears with tips, & 12-15 short spears under those (tips removed). Asparagus, coming into season now, is $2.99/lb at the grocery store. This was $18 for about 3-4oz of greens. I might get this again but only at HH prices.Bone marrowDecent portion, cooked rarer than I've had marrow elsewhere. The crostini were crunchy-hard, like croutons. Bacon jam on top, along with thin slices of onion. I think I prefer mustard and chewy bread with marrow. Thankfully, more and more menus feature marrow these days.Mushroom tagliatelleVery successful dish. Rich creamy sauce, chewy noodles, bright fresh peas adding some sweetness. Duck breastPerfectly cooked breast, just juicy enough to add flavor to the sauce underneath but none of the oiliness or greasiness that often threatens a serving of duck. The potatoes were a little too sweet, maybe due to the tart cherries, which were definitely too sweet for me. Kale was pretty good.Clams fritesSolid bowl of clams, great flavor and crispness on the fries. Cocktails4 for $61 before tip. Great value given the level of quality--these were all expertly made. Highlight(s) of the evening.Hemingway #2--bright and refreshing, visually beautiful. Tango with Frida--tangy and smoky, looked just like the Hemingway except a different shade of color.Dirty martini--not the biggest challenge for their talented bartender, but perfectly done.Smoke Wagon--rich, savory/seasoned, light sweetness and smoke. In the end, we'd come back for HH. The prices here set a level of expectation that's a little beyond what's on the plate, especially given that several places even in the Edmonds Bowl are dialed in on above-average (up to great) food. We liked most of the experience an awful lot, and none of it was disappointing, just needed cleanup in the details here and there."

The pastries are made by students of the Culinary Arts program and they are amazing.The first time I was here, I was a little overwhelmed due to their selection: fresh baked loaves of bread, cookies, tarts, cakes and even creme brulees. Croissants are one of my biggest weaknesses and the students in the Culinary Arts program make some of the best I've had. They can give some of the bakeries a run for their money!For Valentines Day, I treated my bf to their chocolate apricot heart shaped cookie and guava pineapple tart. I really wished I got those for myself because they were so good. I can see myself coming here on a regular basis if i was a student at SCC. I hear they also serve a sit down lunch, which I can't wait to get the chance to check out."

From the greeter, to the servers, they are very nice and happy. I love when they are happy and smiley, it makes the whole atmosphere so light and better when you eat. Our server is very helpful. We asked for marinara sauce for the meatballs and other dipping sauces for the boneless chicken. The restaurant side was kinda empty, the bar side has few people.

I have no regrets!I was worried they'd be busy at the height of the Saturday brunch/lunch rush, but we were able to get a seat immediately and near the open-air portion of the space. This made for some great Broadway people watching while we sipped our beers and awaited lunch. We shared their house salad, which was huge, fresh and adorned with sweet, roasted hazelnuts. We also split what is, apparently, their legendary chicken burger with what I'm pretty sure is the best fried chicken breast I've ever had. The coating was thick, crunchy, and sublime with its subtle spices. It was adhered to a giant, tender, and equally delicious chicken breast, and served atop a fresh bun with all the fixings. The plate was also full of some tasty fries that were similar in style to those served at local Dick's burgers chain - but way better tasting, crispier, and far less greasy.Our server, Miles, was friendly and attentive, and after our meal we got a little tour of the restaurant and their other cool spaces by another employee who was super friendly but I didn't get his name. In the back is their garden room, which they use for a variety of fun events, as well as a full bar which looked like a great spot to grab a drink (or a bloody mary, which I will definitely be wanting to indulge in on my next visit).I can see why this is a popular spot for brunch, and I feel fortunate we somehow snuck in between rushes of hungry patrons!"

It is sweet, salt and smoky in perfect harmony. This was so good and the right amount of sour.Mezcal margarita: I ordered this on impulse and it did not disappoint. This margarita packed a mezcal punch, and the tajin on the top really made this pucker (in a good way). Truffle fries-pure indulgence. Their lemon aioli was really packed with zing, and the fries were perfectly seasoned and crisp. Extra points for a really fun presentation! Casio E Pepe-this is a cheese and black pepper noodle lover's dream. This was creamy and wonderful, and it was a shame to share with anyone. Southern Buttermilk Fried Chicken- This came with rosemary cornbread with honey glazed on the top. This chicken was fried but not greasy-very savory with the right amount of sweet.I enjoyed all these foods with hot sauce (Cholula).Our waiter was wonderful-he made great recommendations, and the Herb & Bitter is simply beautiful to look at. They have QR codes at the tables to scan for their menus. I loved their bar with the gold big cat statues.

The dish tasted pretty good! There are other entrees you can get for under $30, though. We shared chocolate panna cotta and a buckwheat cake, which were both good but average. The restaurant has nice intimate vibes and it's not too loud so it would be good for dates as well."

Tanis L. "On Thursday, 21 April 2022, my aunt treated me and two of my cousins from Minnesota to dinner after going on a driving tour around Fremont. It was the 60th anniversary of the Space Needle and Shawn O'Donnell's American Grill & Irish Pub had allocated two tables to Space Needle and Fremont themed items for sale. My cousins and aunt bought a few things as we were on our way in and pre-sitting down. One of the items both my cousins and aunt bought was a book about Fremont written by a local, who was there to autograph each book and write a personalized message. Both were very touched by the messages they got.Each of us ordered something different for dinner, I went with the Irish Whiskey Mac & Cheese. First, our Irish soda bread arrived, pre-entrees. We got two small loaves, each served with a dollop of butter. The butter was a little sweet, which paired perfectly when spread on the soda bread. The bread was served warm enough that the butter melted when spread on it, and was not too hot to handle or eat.Next up our entrees were served. The Irish Whiskey Mac & Cheese had corned beef, red onions, and a cream made in part from Irish Whiskey and Irish white cheddar cheese. I found the corned beef in the dish to be very lean, which is not something I have encountered frequently, and was very pleased with its flavor. The flavors melded perfectly and complimented each other well in such a way that the Irish Whiskey flavor helped balance the creaminess of the cheese and cream. Some mac and cheese dishes can be too creamy/rich for my taste buds, that was not the case with this dish. I enjoyed it so much I ate the whole thing in one go.The wait staff was friendly and quick. Tables were clean and our booth was stocked with board games on the window sill. We parked at my aunt's house, less than a block away, and walked to the restaurant so parking was a breeze. Overall a very enjoyable and pleasant experience."

The menu looks quite a bit different if you look at the website online versus what the QR Code has on the menu when you get there. Some things are the same but not many.Oliver's Twist is more like a cocktail bar and while we didn't get any of those and just focused on the food we didn't leave disappointed. I ordered a noodle dish, a vegan version of it. Sorry, the name of the dish escapes me so I apologize. If you like the picture in my review and decide you want it I'm sure the server will know by showing it to them.My noodles were good. The green onions always add a ice touch to these type of noodle dishes. My dish had a lot of soy sauce, maybe just a bit too much actually but it's only really noticeable when you get towards the bottom of the bowl.Much of the food has a fusion approach to it or at least to me it did which always add a new spin to more traditional recipes."

It was what I would call the little local dive restaurant as we drove up and parked (parking was easy to do). The interior was cozy, filled with lots of tables which were full. As you walk in the door, don't miss the small board highlighting their specials. We sat at a booth and were offered coffee - yes, of course to a cup of coffee. Each coffee cup is unique and mine was a metal camping cup. It went along well with the quirky vibe. Fun! I ordered the pumpkin pancake specials which were tasty! My husband ordered a plate with an omelette, toast, bacon, potatoes. The clear winner --- the raspberry jam that came with the meals! I believe it was a freezer jam and it was so good, and homemade, that we ordered a jar to go when they said they sold it as well. Now I have to laugh a little that it actually didn't come in a jar, but rather a tall (venti sized) plastic cup with a lid. That's ok because we were able to take some home with us to continue to enjoy. The service - polite, friendly and fun! The waitress interacted with our table and we had a great time. I would definitely keep this on my list for when we are in the Renton area again!"

You can't get anything more fresh than being made right in front of you at various stages of the process.
