    Carrots
    Sylvia H.

    Do you know about the hidden gem, only five minutes from downtown Spokane? If you're looking for a great place to eat, I recommend trying out the local bistro. They have friendly staff, and I'm sure you'll enjoy your experience there. Their wine list is exceptional, but tonight, we decided to try their cocktails. Get ready to tantalize your taste buds with these incredible drinks and appetizers! Start with a Heat Wave cocktail that packs a punch with vodka, jalapeño, passionfruit liquor, and triple sec. Or, try a refreshing Pomegranate Margarita made with tequila, pomegranate, lime, and triple sec. Indulge in a Butter Board layered with smoked honey butter and rosemary, served with delicious applesauce with pistachio and sourdough bread. And don't miss out on the Carrots that are cooked to perfection with smoked honey butter and blackened dill, served with pork rinds. It's no wonder why these Carrots are so addictive The beet salad with a brown butter vinaigrette, frisee, and crispy onions was a good side choice My hubby ordered the steaks and couldn't stop raving about how it was comparable to Churchills - that's how good it was! As for me, I got the halibut; it was a good-sized portion. The chard vegetables- asparagus, were delicious. And the best part? We ended our meal with a warm, gooey blueberry cobbler that was just divine! Oh, I almost forgot! There are no kid's menus, but our server suggested either pizza or they can serve butter noodles Latah Bistro 4241 S Cheney Spokane Rd Spokane, WA 99224 United States

    A friend and I went during Restaurant Week and their specials on the menu were amazing. We shared each of each other's dishes and all of them were fantastic. I would definitely go there again. The staff was very friendly and consistently checking in. We had a reservation at 7pm and it still had a decent amount of folks in there. It was nice and quiet, with dim moody lighting. Just enough to see the menu and have a nice conversation. It was a bit far for us, but I'd definitely go again!

    Ask for the Sunny Disposition! It's the BEST!

    THE very BEST night out experience in Spokane! Imaginative and delicious menu with food friendly to all diets, incredible craft cocktails and an attentive and personable staff! The atmosphere is stylish and inviting in both the main restaurant and the fabulous next door bar! You can find it just outside the city (total bonus to skip down town!) with ample and secure parking!

    Beet salad

    I absolutely loved everything about the beet salad and pepperoni pizza. The flavors and texture of the salad were perfect. The pepperoni pizza was extra special with the hint of honey on top. Can't wait to come back!

    Alaskan Halibut

    Great little find here in Spokane. We opted to sit infuse although they have some great patio seating. We were warmly treated by our server who managed to keep up great banter all evening and was very knowledgeable about their wine, beer and food selections. Beer are rotating so if you fall in love with something it may or may not be back the next time you visit. It appears they have nightly/weekly specials in addition to their regular menu. They offered a Rib Eye on the night we were there, but were out of it when we got there at 6:30. The menu offers a nice variety of choices and I think most everyone in a party could find something that they could order. My MIL got the Crab Cake from the starters for her meal. It was a large cake that came with asparagus so it worked well as an entree too she seem to really enjoy it. My FIL ordered the Duck Breast from the specials menu. He said it was good, but a little over cooked My wife got the Beef Daube Pappardelle. She very much enjoyed it. I only got one taste (which is how I know how much she liked it) of the sauce and it was good. I got the Alaskan Halibut. It came on a bed of Yukon mashed potatoes with some wild mushrooms and English peas. Overall I was pleased with the meal. Really good flavor on the fish and potatoes. The gist was just a bit over cooked, but not by enough that it took too much away from the meal.

It's getting harder and harder to find this sort of thing, so this was like a breath of fresh air on our trip to Spokane! Service was prompt and friendly, and the food came out in pretty much no time at all. We got the fried green tomatoes appetizer (yummy) and everyone was happy with what they ordered. Everything seemed made with real ingredients and not prepackaged or frozen stuff. The Ruben used real corned beef, and the gravy on the pot roast sandwich was amazing. Plus Frank's is in an old-time train car so the ambiance is pretty neat. There's a history to each of the train cars in the location and photos are posted of when it was in service. Overall good food and a neat place to eat. Five stars.

The kitchen, located right in front of us was fascinating to watch.

They operated extremely well in the tightest of work spaces. Pros: - you can try one of each Benedict!! I got one caprese and one bacon - highly recommend. - the fried green tomatoes are amazing! Either plain or in the caprese Benedict , try them! - the fried deviled eggs are one of the best I've ever had! - the pancakes have the slightest crisp to the outer edges making them one of the best I've tried - your soft drink will always be full , at least if you're sitting at the bar - large portions - stuff yourself silly or take the rest to go! - Leslie, our server had a badge that said she's been there for 24 years! She was the perfect server for the front of the house - friendly, efficient, and didn't miss a beat. The best!

    To be sure, this restaurant is more expensive than most in Spokane. We spent the same amount for…read morehalf as much the night before (and got refined food) . However, Luna does offer a lot of things for this price. You have a pleasant neighborhood restaurant vibe, with friendly attentive service and excellent, healthy food sourced from good places. As with anything in Spokane, you will see folks in very casual attire, but this is also a place where you can dress up. When we went, there were several tables of women friends (all ages), many family groups (without young kids or with well-behaved kids), and older couples. I was in the mood for salmon and they did a great version. It should be though for just under $50. It was served with black rice (good) and roasted carrots (good) and a carrot puree (really good but not enough on the plate). My dining companion got the scallops, and they were even more expensive than the salmon. $48 for TWO scallops. Ok, they are large, and well-cooked, and came with a lovely vegetable mix and couscous, but that's a lot of $ for Spokane. We are from CA and that's even a shocker for us. Dessert: they had recently added a banana pudding, which was good. It replaced a chocolate dessert--and that was a bad move because there is no intense chocolate on the menu. We also tried the coconut cake with lemon curd. There was not enough curd; it was barely a tang. The cake itself was a little dry. It is served with house-made ice cream, which balances the dryness but the cake should be good on its own. Apparently, this is their most popular dessert. I am a chocolate-first person. I like coconut. I like good vanilla. I really like lemon curd and a sweet-sour pairing. For me, this item felll short.

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.

We always make it a point to get the beignets from Francaise when we come to Spokane, so on this trip we decided to stop in for dinner. Francaise has a warm inviting "dining room" vibe that gives comfort to its guest. The exposed brick, warm lighting and plants really set the tone for intentional conversation and intimate dinners. While we did come on a night that seemed like they were short staff, our servers were still checking in and very accommodating with how busy it was. We ordered the Pain Maison, Black Truffle French Fries, Risotto à la Forestière, Steak Frites*and Grand Marnier Croissant Bread Pudding. Pain Maison - 7/10 I think the bread was good, I do wish it had been a bit warmer and that there would have been a flavor to the butter. Black Truffle French Fries - 10/10 These were executed so well. The fries on their own carried a lot of flavor, and the truffle took it to another level. We could have easily eaten another basket. Risotto à la Forestière - 8/10 I stole a few bites off of my wife's plate. There were portions of the duck that were a bit dry, but overall it was very tasty. The risotto carried a lot of flavor and the white wine sauce finished everything nicely. Steak Frites - 7/10 I did end up switching my fries to the Robuchon potatoes because they sounded so good and they were. As far as the steak itself, it was cooked to perfection, but I did not enjoy the blue cheese-cognac butter like I thought I would have. There was a charred sweetness to it that I was not expecting (completely on me) and it made me wish I had just ordered the steak itself. Grand Marnier Croissant Bread Pudding - 9/10 The ice cream completely took this dessert to the stars! The Bread pudding in itself had a hard outer layer with a soft and flavorful inner layer, and the combination with the salted caramel ice cream was delicious.  I think that Francaise would be a great place to do Hors D'oeuvres along with drinks and dessert along with friends or for a date- I am curious to try their short rib and think I will make it a point to do so when we come back.

I am talking no juice dry. The way the patties were made made it difficult to even eat. They were so roundish that I could barely keep them together in the bun. To make the burger even dryer, there was no sauce of any kind on/in the bun and the meat had not been seasoned at all during cooking, so it was dry and bland. Too make matters worse I had to ask for a side of mayo and they charged me 75 cents - are you kidding me? I was hesitant to ask for some mustard and ketchup, which should have already been at or brought to the table to begin with. The waitress was pleasant, but I had to ask for everything. I would have returned the burger, but I was having lunch with a friend and did not want to ruin the encounter. I got the batter fries, which were crispy and seasoned well, but with the dry burger the fries didn't help. At that moment I wish I had ordered the side salad instead, as my friend's looked mouthwatering and my mouth needed watering; LOL. Anyway, the burger and fries, with water came to almost $25, with tip. I had been there once before, but I couldn't remember what I had; it was that memorable. I hate McDonald's and have not been there in about a decade, but I would have gladly eaten a double quarter pounder, with cheese, and some fries over this overpriced cotton mouth special. These guys were not even busy, so there is no excuse for the unsatisfactory food. I will not be back.
