We tried Cook Weaver for the first time and loved it! My husband ordered the brisket while I ordered the mushrooms. The food was very well made and the attention to detail in the dishes were similar to something you would find in a high end restaurant. I also found the ambience really cool, looked something like a European medieval pub with Mediterranean designs here and there. read more

See all

Go to Cook Weaver now. We went at 7pm on a Saturday and there were plenty of tables. Go before this spot gets discovered and has a 2 hour wait. Anyway we got two small plates (goat cheese, squash) and two large plates (rainbow trout, brisket). The small plates were really well thought out and delicious, and the trout was one of the better fish dishes I've ever had, and I've eaten a lot of fish. The brisket was pretty bomb too. Zero complaints. read more

I have lived in the Seattle area for the past 35 years, and just discovered Cook | Weaver. We went last night and spent a relaxing 2 1/2 hours dining, drinking, talking. The food was so unique and delicious. While it did take a while to come out of the kitchen, the room's ambience and charm of the waiter and bartender made the evening just so relaxing. We will be going back no doubt. read more

Just spent a week in Seattle and this might have been our favorite restaurant. Very interesting seasonings and pairings. Each dish was inventive and unusual and delicious. We asked the waiter about something and the chef came to our table because the question was something he appreciated. When a chef is inventive I suspect the delivery will be slightly different each time but I'd be confident that I would like anything that comes out of that kitchen. read more

10/10 would recommend! My husband and I ordered a takeout meal and a bottle of wine from here tonight and it did not disappoint. We came here last a year ago and after tonight we keep asking ourselves why it took us so long to come back. His birthday was today and with the city on shut down due to COVID we were relieved to see Cook Weaver was offering take out. If anyone is looking for a delicious meal during this lockdown come here! Delicious, gourmet, and unique! Please do yourself a favor and come here! read more

Decided to venture into Seattle from Bellevue for dinner while on work travel and sooo glad I found Cook Weaver. What an adorable little restaurant with original Russian-style artwork from the 1930's. I would describe this restaurant as Asian-fusion but as all of the amazing food flavors from the continent of Asia. Here's what we had: - Beer battered nori dumplings - 3.5/5 - good but think I've realized my heart lies with unfried dumplings - Carrot rice noodle - 4/5 - large cold rectangle noodle topped with three portions of delicious heavily massaged kale salad with a butter leaf lettuce on top. So tangy and delicious... that said, I'm not sure the actual carrot noodle at the bottom added much to the dish.. almost wishing this was like a cold noodle salad made out of the large carrot noodle. - Sesame beets - 5/5 - Forget your idea of a typical beet salad because this is way different and better. They slow roast beets at high heat, then get a char on the outside with olive oil, some spices and fish sauce. Omg, it's amazing to get these. - Fresh lamb sausage - 4/5 - More like a lamb sausage/meatball. Lots of corn but the lamb was tasty and satisfies that meat craving with all those delicious veggie starters. - Gooey caramel cake - 5/5 - Holy S*** get this dessert! It's exactly what it sounds like and tastes just as amazing Overall - Ambiance is awesome, service was great, food on average was a 4/5, and I could honestly just come and indulge in all their amazing veggie plates and be very happy. read more

The Princess Swan cocktail was a beautiful green delight. The fried shiitake mushroom dish was a great starter. A must if you go.

Absolutely a fantastic place! From the owners who made me feel so welcome to the amazing food and drinks! This is probably my favorite restaurant right now. You must stop by! Take a seat at the bar and order one of the yummy cocktails! read more

Cook and Weaver is AMAZING. The atmosphere is so cute and cozy. I went there with my boyfriend and we ordered a wide variety of starter dishes. We initially ordered four plates but were honestly so stuffed after 3 dishes, we asked the waiter to cancel the fourth. The staff was SUPER nice and accommodating this request and didn't make us feel bad about cancelling the last dish. Honestly, I was pretty sad I didn't get to taste the final dish because it looked amazing. We ordered the cauliflower and sunchokes, trout lettuce wraps, and the trenzino salad. Everything was amazing and I was really surprised by how large the portions were (hence having to cancel the last one). The only reason I didn't give all around 5 stars was that the service was pretty slow. That being said, the staff was very attentive and we were in no rush. If you have a set place you need to be at a certain time, give your self extra time to enjoy the experience. read more

Absolutely wonderful! Creative, delicious food and it's priced very nicely. I highly recommend this adorable little place. It was our first time there and definitely won't be our last. read more

This is my favorite place to eat. Hands down. The food is amazing, the drinks are unique and when you walk in, you're instantly transported to a different world. Or eat outside as if at a café in Europe. read more

Welcoming space. Welcoming people. Welcoming flavors. Loved it and can't wait to go back. The dishes are all shareable. And to clarify: they are *not* tiny tapas that you'll resent sharing. The plates are full, generous portions that you'll want to pass around so you save room to try more things! I ordered the Princess Swan cocktail - clean, refreshing, not sweet. Golden beets in some kind of sesame magic were so flavorful and delicious. The smell was heavenly; the folks next to me commented on the aroma, so I went ahead and shared some; it just felt right. :-) The flavors were unlike the typical beet dish (goat cheese, herb, reduction) which can be delicious but is super familiar. This felt warm and special. The mushrooms with pea spaetzel were hearty and comforting. If you're craving a creamy pasta dish, this will get you your fix! Chocolate in the chocolate trifle was 10/10. And the apricots were a sweet surprise. My neighbors ordered the lamb sausage and the black cod. Both smelled so great, I'd suggest them on the aroma alone! Great date spot. Great for small groups. I can't wait to come back and work my way through more of the food and cocktail menus. read more

Fantastic experience! We sat in back at the "chef's table" and had so much fun watching the process while enjoying plate after plate. Really fun spot for a night out with friends. All staff were friendly and helpful, and the price was excellent for such a unique experience. read more

Crispy fried mushrooms were awesome. Tempura mushrooms with shiitake reduction The mackerel was lapped up by my 10 year old niece! The Brussel sprouts with cod cream, bacon & sesame were pretty good too! The Israeli cab was divine. Gilgal from Golan Heights may be the real reason Israel is hanging on to the Golan! Service was great. Food was served hot and as it was ready keeping the steady stream of small plates. Will definitely repeat and highly recommend to friends and family. read more

Simply amazing food! This place is a hidden gem, serving up the best culinary experience. We ordered mostly vegetarian food, but cannot stress on how good they all were. Must try are the nori dumpling and king oyster mushroom. read more

Cook Weaver has a reasonably priced menu, an inexpensive wine list, and tasty dishes. They're only two weeks old :-) We got a bottle of the cheapest red (rioja), then Brussels sprouts with sunchokes, bacon, salted cod pure, with dates and mustard (nice), an oyster mushrooms steak (topped with potato croquettes and blue cheese) and a beef brisket "done in the style of bibimbap" (fried egg and hominy and even slices of pickled radish). Every dish had complex but balanced flavors. The chef sent out a tiny taster of cured steelhead with green apple balls topped with mint and lemongrass oil. Complex and refreshing. For dessert we had the fried bananas in chai sauce, and the upside down cake with fennel. Again, great flavor mixes. The waiter and the owner told us their version of the Pushkin fairy tale (tale of Tsar Saltan) that is depicted on the murals inside. If you go, have them explain it... it'll be fun! Cool food, personal service, great decor, fun background music. We will be back. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle! They have a delicious vegan tasting menu too.

The best place I've recently found and it's right in my hood! They were recommended by a chef I knew and it's easy to see why. Everything I've ordered has been inventive, interesting and most importantly so delicious. I'm as big a carnivore as anyone but I could eat a vat of the shiitake mushroom salad. I haven't seen many other places in Seattle having this much fun with their food and you'll be thinking about your meal here long after you leave. Do yourself a favor and go! read more

Excellent food! Plates are sharing style and the flavors were on point. Definitely worth a trip

I wanted to like this place much more than I actually did. Service and ambiance is good, food is inventive but somehow just misses the mark, especially considering how pricey it is. I'd go again got happy hour but other than that I wasn't really impressed. Maybe I went on an off night but I just didn't think it lived up to the hype. read more

This place is amazing! The staff was super friendly and helpful and the food has more flavor than you can possibly imagine. We came for my friends birthday after searching for the perfect spot I picked Cook Weaver and I am so happy I did. We ordered 4 things off the menu and everything was amazing. I highly recommend this place! read more

This Place from beginning to end was absolutely amazing. The outside of the restaurant looks like a house from decades ago. The inside is very intimate and with a decent size bar area. But the food.... OMG. Please order the Brussel sprouts, the kimchi dumplings, zabuton, and the brisket is a must. If you don't have room for dessert, you still need to order the ooey gooey caramel dessert. It's guaranteed to change your life. I will be back to try all the other things on their menu. One of my new favorite restaurants here in Seattle. read more

Love this place - the service, the food, the ambiance. We couldn't choose so we had the server order recommendations for us. Each course was better than the last - and some of the items were things I would never have ordered if it were up to me. Cocktails were amazing. We left pleasantly full, satisfied, and happy with the entire experience. read more

This is a very nice place, and we've been going here frequently as of late. The bar is small but well-equipped with a short list of good beers and wines, and the food is interesting. As some reviewer has pointed out: maybe sometimes they make it a bit more complicated than it has to be, but most dishes are well executed and tasty. We find the staff friendly to a fault, and the decor is unusual (and also interesting). From the items currently on the menu we have especially enjoyed the mussel stew and the clay pot black cod, but I also thought the coconut poached chicken salad was great (though the coconut was hard to spot), and the chicken liver mousse on rye bread was very tasty. We'll be coming back here, and I'd love to see them up the food game to where I can give them a five with good conscience. read more

Lovely and wonderful. The folks here are friendly and hospitable while the food and offerings are top notch. An exquisite evening is quarantined. read more

Had a perfect birthday celebration dinner here tonight! The service was wonderful . Every dish was incredible : the beets, cauliflower that was out of this world, braised beef and chicken salad. I don't usually eat desserts but I would come back just for the strawberry whipped dessert. Nice happy hour cocktails until 6pm. Only negative is parking, but its Capitol Hill... can't wait to come back . Well done Cook Weaver. read more

Just happened upon this place celebrating a friends birthday and it was awesome. Really unique dishes, small menu, good cocktails, some small plates, small, quiet, caring service. Going back for my daughters birthday next week. read more

Simply fantastic experience! These guys are cranking on all cylinders! Food, service, atmosphere were all excellent .. I've seen this place on yelp for couple months, scoring really high reviews but was having hard time deciphering the menu so never visited until last night. So glad we did.. the food combinations they're doing are different but everything we had was "scrape the bowl clean" delicious . If available sit at the chef table, it's literally in the kitchen so you can watch the show and enjoy chatting with chef . Anyways go check this place out if you haven't done so read more

Love love love the food!! Craig sent me here! Limited vegetarian options, but trust me- they are amazing!!! I love going back and trying new stuff on there menu :) read more

Cook Weaver made my weekend trip to Seattle from the east coast. My girlfriend and I wandered in mid shift to try and sneak a late brunch. The food is fun and varied with dishes that use ingredients from around the world, without being either overly serious or generic fusion. The co owner chef Zach does a great job making every dish his own, whether it is seared octopus on lotus root, sushi or trout over bulgar. Everything feels considered and special, but never pompous or heavy. The co owner bartender Nile was great at running the front of the house, caring for our needs, providing lively conversation, while also giving us privacy. The interior is all hand painted and stunning. I encourage anyone who loves food to go here for dinner, for just a snack or even drinks. 5 stars across the board. I'll be back. read more

Start to finish this was an amazing meal. Super interesting and varied dishes, great cocktails and wonderful service. Love the historical art on the walls. read more

In my brief stay in Seattle, this was a great finish. Distinct restaurant setting, unique theme, and food to boot. I was leaning seafood/vege when I walked in, but changed my mind; firstly out of the roasted sunchoke kasu cauliflower and the mushroom dish was pasta-based and that's not my bag. So, to the dumplings and braised brisket. Dumplings were a solid starter, though I wish the kimchi was stewed a bit longer. The brisket, however, was the best dinner entree I've had on a month. Daikan radish and hominy? Yes! Yes! Yes! Throw in a perfectly subtle, soft red for a wine pairing and it was spot on. I would also recommend trying a special cocktail - I did - outside my comfort cocktail zone, and was more than satisfied. The finishing touch was the casual conversation with Seattle-ites (?) Fun all around. Oh! And if you're a planner, call ahead for a the chef's kitchen table, especially if you're a foodie. Enjoy! read more

An eclectic fine dining experience at a fraction of the usual price. Intimate atmosphere with amazing service. Every bite was an adventure. Very satisfying! read more

Super interesting and original dishes. Friendly service. Good drink menu.

I celebrated my birthday there and i had the best time ever! The food was delicious, servers super attentive, we even got a special dish made just for us which was not on the menu! They have great vegetarian selection too. Highly recommend this place and give them 10 stars out of 5 read more

Unreal. Popped in here on a whim and everything was beyond delicious. Chicken liver mousse is a must - trust us! The brisket was wonderful - so tender it feels like butter in your mouth give Cook | Weaver some love because these guys are a welcome addition to this neck of the woods!! read more

Every meal we've had here has been exquisite. We ordered half menu last night and were delighted by the unique flavors and creativity of the dishes. Our favorites were the umami carrot salad, warm trevisio salad, mushroom tart and kimchi cream noodles. We plan to be back to try the rest of the menu before it changes. Thank you for a fantastic evening and dining experience. read more

We went to cook weaver last night as an impromptu dinner, not realizing a reservation was recommended. Our host and server, Jacob, went above and beyond in accommodating us. Finding us a seat as well as guiding us to our next stop. The food was very elegantly plated and looked as delicious as it tasted. I recommend the braised beef. read more

The staff, food, and drinks are phenomenal. I wish I had words to describe the care I received here. Hands down one of the best dinning experiences I've had in a long time. Thank you Cook Weaver for showing me what true hospitality is. read more

Lovely food, great staff. Zach, the co-owner and head chef, is attentive, fun, smart, and very good at what he does. They're very accommodating of food allergies, including gluten free needs. I highly recommend giving them a try! read more
