    Menu as of 4/3/26

    Cute little spot in the heart of Cle Elum! The menu is diverse and lots of menu items sounded amazing. We got carne asada tacos, carnitas taco, and chicken verde taco (all were perfectly cooked and plated with great toppings) I had a peach Bellini and it was refreshing, I liked the freeze dried lemon garnish. My husband's beer was great! The Wagyu sliders were tender and amazing on these delicious little brioche buns. The guacamole was so good! I wish we would have ordered guac and chips too. We also tried a new appetizer that was the fried burrata with grilled focaccia, omg the flavor on that my husband and I still talk about! Soo soo good! Our waitress was so sweet. She did forget to put our app order in because a table after us got their food before we got ours. Then she brought out the main dishes and we had to ask where the appetizer was. She blamed it on the cook, I don't know. But still great and would return. They also have lots of seating outside with fire tables when weather is nicer.

    The steak quesadillas are amazing! Staff is friendly and it's a nice restaurant, it looks good. The croquettes de jamón are not good but overall we had a good experience!

    Next time will definitely dine in!! Cle town tapas hit the spot! Got a to go on a Saturday night after work - friendly service, easy ordering and quick pick up! Great location in the heart of downtown Cle Elum on main drag, street parking with side streets/block parking available. Casual/industrial modern/clean vibes. Pro tip - get the cauliflower!!! So. Freaking. Delicious. Big ups to the chef, dish cooked perfectly and that vinaigrette was amazing! Will definitely be back (dine in next time) :)

    Samples - happy to hell!

    Super helpful finding the beer we wanted, nachos were delicious and half size was huge for 3. The shrimp tacos and mango salsa so yummy! If you like beer or bourbon this is your place not to mention great atmosphere and service! Will come again!!

    Stopped by for lunch while visiting the town of Cle Elum. There is a lovely outdoor seating section, but it was too chilly for us, so we sat inside. The inside had a nice ambience. The staff were friendly. I hand the 1903 cocktail which was boozy just the way I like it. My friend and I shared the chips, gauc, and salsa. The green salsa was tangy and flavorful. The red salsa had a nice kick. The guacamole had a good texture but too mild for my taste. The broccoli appetizer was amazingly delicious. You get a lot of food, more than I was expecting for a tapas style bar and restaurant. Definitely would come back if I return to Cle Elum.

    Amazing place in Cle Elum, I'm still thinking about their empanadas The staff was wonderful and their drinks on tap, beer and a full bar

    Margarita

    Excellent food. Good margarita considering how far north this is! Service was fantastic. Cook in the back was energetic and entertaining. I'd go back again and again if I find myself in Cle Elum, even though I cannot pronounce Cle Elum.

We ordered the flank steak cooked medium well and served on a bed of asparagus top off with a delicious chimichurri sauce. The steak was tender, so delish! We also had the Carne pizza: sausage on the Carne, was very tasty! In my opinion, the show stopper on that pizza! Last was the Insalata Giacomo. This was a salad with a delicious dressing and medley Caprese. Perfect pairing and tomatoes were delish! I didn't not take a picture of it Great portions to share!! It's a the beginning of the promenade across from open parking lot and I highly recommend trying this place.

The chorizo in the stuffed mushrooms made them stand out from any others I've tried before and added such a great depth of flavor. The prosciutto fig pizza had the perfect balance of sweet and savory, with different flavors that worked beautifully together. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive. The staff consistently checked in on us and made sure everything was perfect. Overall, great food and great service!

    For starters, my family and I come here more often than not on nights out. Not only for date…read morenights, but also family meals. I love that they have x2 different sizes for their orders (tapas:smaller) and (regular:much larger portions). This allows us to try anything and everything we want in the appropriate sizes. I know on Mondays that they have half price Mojitos and Margaritas, but they have special events and more on other nights! I almost always order their specials for dinners, a three course app, entree, and dessert. For lunch I really enjoy their smash burgers... the BEST in town. Please try their Tres Leches dessert... omg so delectable. I can't help but order their hibiscus margarita with the special hibiscus salt every time... I love the flavor they add to Ellensburg and the variety in their menu. I've never had a dish that I don't enjoy. 10/10, I will always return. Thank you for your service. -Shelan (a regular at this point)

All the flavors paired perfectly. The staff was extremely friendly & the owner was very welcoming & even took the time to share his story & the inspiration behind the dish. The inside is very large with plenty of seating, both at the bar & in the dining room. They had live music going on in a private area. It's a little older on the inside but kept up well & clean. I will definitely be going back & might try the espresso rubbed steak. I highly recommend, enjoy & you're welcome.
