    Bulgogi Steak

    The menu is well thought out. The hardest part is just choosing what to order. We highly recommend the walnut shrimp, any of the rice bowls and any noodle dish. Whenever possible, upgrade to the Avocado rice. So good!

    This was a great little date spot to find. We were able to sit at the bar but I highly recommend a reservation if you are looking to eat at a particular time. The menu selection is minimal but has a options for any diet type. The location was very clean and overall the atmosphere was relaxing. So long as you are not in a rush I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a nice date night out.

    I ordered from this restaurant at a concert. The food was delicious, but it was a little expensive and the portion size was small. Overall, it was a good experience.

    It took me way too long to finally eat at Bar Dojo. I came in for brunch and wish I have a bigger stomach. My friend and I shared all of the entrees ordered. The churros Chinese donut is a genius idea. It was yummy -- it had caramel, sugar and powdered sugar on it. I think they could've let one of those toppings go as it was very sugary. The pork XLB was delicious & flavorful but lacked soup and half were also torn. It was still good though along with the sauce it came with. The smash burger was pretty good too and the truffle nori fries were addicting. I'll have to come back to try the seafood & sashimi/poke dishes as my friend has dietary restrictions. The restaurant is a lot smaller than I expected. It was a busy Sunday so I suggest making reservations during prime hours.

    What a great hidden gem in Edmonds! I love all the beautifully curated dishes that are packed full of flavor. Service is amazing, but be sure to make a reservation as it does get busy and it is a small restaurant! You can take a peek at all the food we got below but the ones we will be dreaming about forever are- - Guava churro cheesecake: it was so good that we had to take one to go, we NEVER get dessert but they convinced us to and it was soooo good - Gochujang chicken wings: so good, crisp, and flavorful. I am so picky about my wings but these were perfection - Al pastor bao - so delicious and the perfect size We LOVED everything though, you cannot go wrong with anything on this menu.

    Ube horchata

    This restaurant in a small strip mall in Edmonds surpassed my expectations with creative, innovative and plant friendly food. We stopped in for brunch on a Saturday. The place was almost full but didn't seem hectic - we had made a reservation and were seated right away. I had the ube horchata which was beautiful, sweet and satisfying. I also had the pandan chicken and waffles special. The honey walnut chicken was fried in a way that felt airy and light and the waffles were super satisfying, Elphaba levels of green, and topped with pickled strawberries and miso syrup. So good! My spouse had the tofu mushroom bowl which substantial, spicy, and satisfying. Service was friendly and quick. Can't wait o go back and try other menu options.

    Yummmyyyyyyy I love going to a new restaurant randomly and the food is so good. We got the cucumber salad, spicy noodles?, ahi tuna tacos, and side avocado rice and everything was yuuuummyyyyy! Service was also excellent :)

    Honey walnut shrimp. Amazing!

    We had a reservation for party of 7 last Sunday for dinner. It was my daughter's birthday and gender reveal and the staff went out of their way to take good care of us. The service was outstanding from start to finish and the food was incredible! The portions were large and packed with delicious flavors. We had drinks, appetizers and dinner and were in a food coma when we were done! You have to come here if you haven't done so already! It's a small dining area so make reservations if you can.

    Wonderful food!! Order anything and it will be the best. Chad our waiter made perfect dinner suggestions. Spot on and much appreciated. Chef preparation of my Black Cod dish was in my top 5 meals of all time (60 years). Yes it was that good. Make reservations now and spoil yourself. Every dish is amazing!! P

    Located in Edmonds, this is an upscale Asian fusion restaurant that looks unassuming on the outside but serves up some decent dishes inside. I went here with a friend, and just in case, we made a reservation for 7:30pm since that was the earliest spot we could get at 5pm, but we were still able to be seated at 7pm. We tried 2 cocktails - Shiso Lovely and Ube Rumchata, as well as a variety of dishes such as birria egg rolls, ahi poke tacos, filet tataki aguachile, and guava churro cheesecake. Overall, the food is okay but could be better for the price. Shiso Lovely was gin based drink with shiso but I honestly felt like the drink was watered down. The Ube Rumchata was fairly aesthetic and has a nice sweetness from the horchata and ample flavor from the ube. The birria egg rolls were good and fairly filling, but I expected more than just 4 half pieces. The consomme they serve was decent but from a reference point, I have had better. The ahi poke tacos are one of their best sellers so we tried that, but it was a little underwhelming from the tuna quality and the wonton is a little soggy. The filet tataki aguachile had a nice balance of spicy, savory, and tangy; it is one of their rotating specialties. I love that they prepared the dish medium rare. The guava churro cheesecake topped off the meal on a good note. The guava filling is slightly caramelized and the cheesecake is fairly hearty, perfect for splitting.

    Truffle fries oysters bao
    Ngoc R.

    Loved the happy hour offerings here. Asian fusion is sometimes a hit or miss but I'd have to say everything was delicious here. They really outdid the menu! From oysters to dumplings, shoestring truffle fries (absolute favorite) and bao slider. Omg just mouth watering!

    Vegan mochi
    April S.

    I thought I had already written a review for this fantastic restaurant but I hadn't. The food is delicious! And there are excellent vegan options! The green salad with avocado and miso dressing is fresh and stands alone. Then there is the vegan impossible chicken katsu bowl which is out of this world. The drinks are great too as was the vegan mochi. Love this place, the service and food. Highly recommend!

    Pork Belly Nachos
    Doris W.

    We went by Bar Dojo for dinner on a Wednesday night. I made reservations through OpenTable 2 days prior, but it wasn't too busy this night. I would say the type of food they serve doesn't really match the ambience of the restaurant if that makes sense? It felt a very Edmonds restaurant inside. We ordered: -Birria eggrolls - pork belly nachos - Dojo Board - almond cake - guava cheesecake - lilikoi creme brulee The birria eggrolls were our least favorite, the sauce didn't stick to the eggroll that well. The pork belly nachos were cheesy and had good flavor. 4 of us shared the Dojo Board, and we polished it clean. I think the board was $125 or so. We all had different reviews of the desserts, but they were all good. This place is on the pricey side, but the food was good.

There is limited indoor seating, which I opted to sit by the entrance. This allowed me to experience this indie cafe's vibe. It had a bit of European flair which was pleasant.

Pretty impressive actually. I had driven by this spot many times this past year, usually hitting up other indie cafes in Edmonds. Featured beans were from Camber, roasted up in Bellingham. Spot on mocha. Glad I detoured and stayed awhile after the pop up. Even caught up briefly with another Yelp Elite/All Star/IGer. Adding this to my Edmonds rotation. Recommended!

After 4PM, they have a bar next door called Bar Americano that serves non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. The bartenders were friendly too cuz we were just stopping by but said we'd be back at another time to try this place out! Parking is street, although you probably could park at Ace Hardware. My girl friend and I did the 10 minute walk from Edmonds City Hall since it's free 3 hour public parking in 2 areas of the lot :) nice weather too!

I was told by a bartender (who is not the owner) that I should not return, despite never being disruptive, intoxicated, or in violation of any rules here. The reason given was unrelated to my conduct at this bar and stemmed from a serious personal safety concern involving a drink that I had raised elsewhere about another patron who also frequents this establishment. The interaction left me feeling that it was more important for the other patron to feel comfortable here than it was for me to feel comfortable or welcome. As a woman raising a safety concern, being dismissed and told not to come back rather than having the situation handled neutrally or referred to management was especially upsetting. Rather than addressing the concern professionally, I was told not to return so that someone else would not have to worry about encountering me. Being treated this way -- despite having done nothing wrong at this bar -- felt unfair and unprofessional. I would encourage ownership to review how situations involving customer safety concerns are handled and who has the authority to decide who is welcome

We did not actually come to eat because we had dinner reservations a few hours later, but we did want something small to nosh on. The menu options actually sounded pretty tasty. We only ordered the fried pickles as we didn't want anything heavy. The pickles were tasty, but they needed maybe 1 more minute in the fryer. The inside of the batter was just a tiny bit undercooked. But we still gobbled them up. Aside from that, I was slightly disappointed that they didn't actually have a lot of "tiki" styled drinks on their signature drink menu. I was expecting it to be a whole theme. It really wasn't. I think that's a missed opportunity for sure. I would really lean into that theme, since it's your name and decor. The hubby ordered the Tom Tai. It started out kinda tasty on top, but whatever alcohol was at the bottom of the glass (which was the only time I actually tried a sip) was just god awful. Have no clue what it was but it was like turpentine. Not a balance cocktail, but maybe just putting it in a shaker to mix it might have helped. Whatever alcohol was on the bottom of the drink was not good at all. Staff was friendly. Lots of tv's to watch sports. We "might" come back to give it another try based on what the menu sounded like next time we are in the area.
