Vovina

Went in for a chill night and it was the perfect hangout spot with games and cozy environment. They were super accommodating since the cheese plate came with red meat and we don't eat it. They substituted it with smoked salmon and added some extra things. Tots were nothing amazing but this place gets the job done for a low key weekday or weekend night!

Brussels are still amazing, good drinks, delish steak skewers with a spicy chimichurri sauce, and fun bartenders. Tabitha gets a huge shout out for some inspired drinks off the main list. Such a great place. They have a small patio for outdoor seating as well.

Great cocktails, awesome service and tasty small bites. A fun patio with heaters when it's chilly but not raining.

We stopped by this little bar after a cooking class at Sur La Table. It was the perfect ambiance. Such a nice day to sit out on the patio and enjoy the Kirkland area. The service was super friendly and chatty and really leveled up the experience! We didn't get any food, but the guacamole bites looked delicious!

Don't go for Happy Hour because service is terribly slow. (Maybe for non-HH is worth it but I won't be finding out.) If you go, just get a drink. Order you next round when you finally get your first drinks. You will have long finished your first drink before your server comes back.As for food, it's ok but I ate mostly from the HH menu. The flatbread is fine but it's a pizza with an upscale name. As for the tots, why did they take over a half hour? They are generic tots. I can't believe you have that small of a frier or you got so slammed with tot orders to take so long.

the best tasting cocktails I've had in a while. very well balanced and not too sweet. very minimal setting though, but cute dark interior/intimate vibes. will have to try apps next time!

They're open on Mondays which is rare. It's actually the reason we chose to go there. The place is a little "dive-y" - a bit beat down. They raved about their charcuterie board but I didn't see anything special (I am not a fan of "meat blocks" on a charcuterie board or anywhere else). Truffle tots was identified as their "prize dish". It was good. Not amazing. Overall, if you're looking for a hang on a Monday - go to Vovina. If you're hanging on a Wednesday, try something else. Oh, staff were super nice.

Randomly stopped by this place on a nice Friday afternoon and was seated immediately! Carson and Mia were very friendly and working hard to get everything done. The atmosphere was calm and cozy with plenty of seats tucked into every corner. The drinks were amazing (and relatively a few bucks cheaper than some places nowadays). I would love to go back and try the food in the future.

We love this hole in the wall bar. You cant go wrong with anything you order. Service is good, drink and food is good as well.

The drinks were delicious, staff was accommodating & very nice. I loved the dark, kind of broody atmosphere; made for a great book club meeting spot
