    We came for Brunch, very nice place simple and nothing extravagant, nice historical decor, staff were friendly, our server was very knowledgeable and was on top of everything. Food was delicious and huge portions! We enjoyed everything, don't get too full because you definitely have to try the desserts! Highly recommended!

    Chicken wings

    Service was okay. Food awful. Burned veggies "purple carrots". should not have a burned flavour meatloaf had so much red sauce it was over powering. Never had meatloaf fried. Never to return after a long hiatus

    Biscuits, eggs and hash the chicken fried steak comes on a separate plate

    So Memorial Day I didn't plan to go out but some friends took us out for my wife's birthday which was the day prior. We agreed to try the crystal cafe in Bothell and fingers crossed it's good. We arrived and as expected it was a bit of a wait. While waiting I noticed a lot of people coming out with clear containers of biscuits. I prefer toast but I was intrigued. I ordered the chicken fried steak and two others also tried the steak. Another accompaniment had the chicken fingers and the bleu burger. We tore up everything it was so good except the hash browns could use some seasoning but the biscuits were a total win.

    There food is classic diner fair. The service - once you get in - is good. The problem is they close with no notice and without posting seemingly anywhere. The bar will unexpectedly be closed. The whole restaurant will be suddenly closed early with no info on social media except a sign on the door. This also happens at the partner locations in Sammamish, so this is an organizational problem. I don't mind you deciding to close earlier on a holiday. Or for training. But for the love of hecking heck, would you post on one of your many social media accounts when you close early so we don't speed precious $5.50 gas driving up there? We checked your Facebook before driving up - no notice of closing early. We checked your website - no notice of closing early. I checked both instagram account (don't know which one is real) - no notice. Please use one of your social media accounts to post when you're closing early. That's all

    Hobo Scramble with side of pancakes
    Mark E.

    Quite the busy place on a Sunday morning. We luckily found they had an online sign in sheet so we did that which gave us about 25 minutes to get there. We made it with a few minutes to spare and were seated immediately. Otherwise we heard them telling people it was a 40 minute wait. The waitress we had was super friendly and funny and kept our coffee flowing which was surprising for as busy as they were. Now the food. I ordered the hobo scramble with pancakes and a side of bacon. The scramble was really good except to much sour cream thrown on top (ask for it on the side). The pancakes were nice and fluffy but the bacon, it was excellent. Good thick pieces cooked to the right amount of crispy. Overall I give this 4 stars. Only because it was so crowded and loud, which is not there fault just super busy

About 10 minutes from the Woodenville winery. As we stepped inside, a warm and enchanting ambiance wrapped around us, filled with the harmonious sounds of clinking glasses and plates that blended in perfect harmony. The heavenly aroma of freshly prepared food wafted through the air, teasing our senses and building excitement while the cozy decor instantly elevated our mood. With an exceptional selection of wine and drinks, plus captivating indoor and outdoor seating, it seemed every whim was thoughtfully catered to. Despite arriving at 1:00 to a lively crowd, we were seated promptly, thanks to the impeccable and exceptional service. Our server's remarkable attentiveness and expertise set the tone for a truly unforgettable meal, and another staff member exceeded our expectations, sharing delightful stories about all their special events, such as Happy Hour and Wine Wednesday, and inviting us back for dinner. She shared that the biscuits we inquired about were made in-house, a testament to the restaurant's pursuit of excellence. With customer service that inspires and leaves a lasting impression, we can't wait to return and relish the experience once more. I highly recommend the Biscuits and gravy, Eggs Benedict, or the Cottage Breakfast; all were truly spectacular! This place truly deserves a spot on your must-visit list, and I highly recommend it.

At today's restaurant prices when you splurge on a nice dinner you really want it to be an experience. Russell's delivered in every respect.

His skill added to the experience, without being intrusive. Cocktails were delightful. One Laphroaig with a big cube, one Huckleberry cosmo. Dinner was a split beet salad, one ribeye done medium rare, and one rack of lamb also done medium rare. Both were perfect, the salad was the great starter.

Nitpicking we were less than impressed with the rissoto and a couple other small things - but considering they were catering for 100 folks and still running normal service downstairs it was pretty good! That ganache tart was killer. Would love to come back for regular dinner and see how they really shine. 8/10 will return

I really enjoyed my cider! It was refreshing and I would definitely get it again. As for food, we got fries with truffle oil and a monster cookie with vanilla ice cream. It was all so good!
