They are like overly fancy, to the max pickle. I'm not saying it's a pickle, because they are not "pickled", but, but, how do I say it....fresh, crunchy, tasty, with a good "kick". The flavor is abundant. The pepper lingers on your tongue after you finish. Glory! Try it with a beer. I'm telling you. You will be satisfied with this starter. This is all I ate. I'm losing weight. Have to look good for my new lady. BTW- great ambiance. Large hole-in-wall. Dimly lit. People talking. Not loud. Good energy. Lots of different kind of whiskey. And other spirits. 4 good beers on tap. Several imported or mico-brew beers. Full bar. Wine, etc. Staff is pleasant and efficient. I had my dish 3 minutes after ordering. Like busy bees. Kitchen is wide open for viewing. I like that touch. TV at the bar. Two high chair sections, one at the bar. Lots of seating. Good temperature in the restaurant. I like this place.

This was our first time at their space in Kendall Yards and the vibes/decor were spot on. Our server offered us a choice of table which was a lovely and we sat near the window by the water (can't wait for the patio to open!). The cocktails were delicious, as was every dish we ordered. We started with the salmon dip and dirty fries to share and the salmon dip was absolutely phenomenal. The fries were a huge portion, covered in braised pork. They were a tad salty for our palette but still yummy. I had the cod as my main, my partner had the hangar steak. Both were beautifully plated and balanced. We definitely look forward to coming back again soon!

It's a short walk from the Parkade and they had a small outdoor seating area and I took a seat and I waited outside for my friend. The inside looks clean and inviting as well but in nice weather who can resist sitting outside? We both partook of one of their unique cocktails and our waitress was helpful in questions about menu items. My friend had the beet salad and I had the wedge salad with grilled chicken. Both salads were delectable! We sat outside chatting well after they closed between their lunch and dinner crowd and our waitress told us to take all the time we wanted which I appreciated. I will be back if the opportunity arises (without the hubby!).

Their menu is very interesting, it definitely tells a new American story with a lot of influence, but holds traditional to a new American style. The service is incredible. Everyone seems so happy and alive. Every single thing that we got was perfect. The port flight was quite a steal at $20. We were excited to try some different items, but were even more thrilled when it came out with some amazing chocolate. The bread puffs that come before the meal are to die for, and we got a taquito appetizer that was super filling, fresh, vibrant, and a little unique too. I wish we didn't live all the way across the country! This is a must stop in Spokane for a lovely and memorable meal.

Exposed brick walls, bronzish art pieces, warm lighting--it feels stylish without trying too hard ( did not know restaurant is 30 years old) I was joining after a run, so I was probably a little underdressed . The general vibe is chic-casual, but I still felt completely comfortable and welcomed. My host was incredibly kind and accommodating throughout the meal. I ordered the hanging tenderloin medium rare based on her recommendation, and she was also more than happy to add some greens on the side when I asked. I really appreciate that Mizuna makes a point of using vegetables from local farms. The dish almost reminded me of something you might get at a traditional Lyonnaise restaurant, but with a more modern and refined touch. The beet salad, though, was a piece of art. I would honestly come back just for this dish. The beets had an almost candied quality without being overly sweet, and they worked beautifully with the freshness of the mint and the creamy chèvre mousse. Fantastic balance of flavors and textures. Great atmosphere, genuinely warm hospitality, and food that feels thoughtful without being overly complicated. Mizuna was a really enjoyable surprise.

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but Lily absolutely deserves the recognition. From the…read moremoment we sat down, she made us feel like the most important table in the room. Her warmth was genuine, her recommendations were spot-on, and she had an incredible ability to anticipate what we needed before we even asked. Lily checked in at just the right moments -- never intrusive, never absent. She remembered details from earlier in the conversation, kept the energy upbeat, and handled a small mix-up with our order with total grace and a smile. That kind of poise is rare. If you're lucky enough to be seated in Lily's section, you're in for a treat. She's the kind of server who turns a good meal into a genuinely memorable experience. We'll absolutely be back, and we'll be asking for her by name!

We tried the smoked brisket hash, shrimp and grits, and breakfast burrito, and every dish delivered. The smoked brisket hash was hearty and packed with smoky, savory flavor, while the shrimp and grits were rich, creamy, and incredibly satisfying. The breakfast burrito was also loaded with flavor and made for a perfect brunch bite. The drinks deserve a special mention too! They have a huge variety of mimosa flavors, which is basically everything you want at brunch. We tried the classic and yuzu, and both were delicious. And their Bloody Marys were bomb--bold, flavorful, and a perfect pairing with the food. Service was quick and friendly. We went on a weekday and had no wait, and the restaurant has a huge space with plenty of seating. If you're a foodie looking for a brunch spot in Spokane where both the food and drinks deliver, Bruncheonette is definitely worth a visit!

I really want to like this restaurant, this was my third attempt and I have to say I won't be…read moretrying it again. Firstly the drip coffee was horrible. We told the server it tasted burnt & old so she offered to make a fresh pot. It was just as bad, when she asked we said it was still really yucky and she said that a lot of people don't care for it. I ordered the tamale waffle. The beef was great, eggs were a bit overcooked but no biggie, the waffle was really hard and dry. It needs some sort of crema sauce or something. It wasn't horrible by any stretch but it wasn't great either. My mom got the veggie breakfast burrito and she liked the veggies though it was bland, felt like it could have had more sour cream & cheese. It was massive and came with a side. The added 16% service fee is some real BS. It says on the receipt that it's split between the server & the kitchen staff. Call me old fashioned but I thought it was on the restaurant to pay their staff a living wage. At $18 a breakfast plate & $4 for drip coffee you should be able to pay your staff. And then we're supposed to tip on top of that? Nope.
