Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir
Elizabeth M.

Galentine's dinner was very pleasant, enjoying the ambiance of Maynard's!! A very nice restaurant in Silverdale, serving fine dining. The staff was very pleasant and attentive, from the moment we arrived. Since it was Valentine's night, they had a special dinner menu that had great options. With a fully stocked bar, I selected a delicious red Cabernet Sauvignon that was amazing!! The only reason I'm giving it 3.5 stars is that the food was lukewarm in temperature. Our side dishes were almost cold by the time we got them. I'm assuming because it was an expected busy day, but I wish it was at least good to enjoy while warm. Otherwise, a great restaurant if you're going to celebrate a special occasion. Very large dining area, fully stocked bar and an open kitchen concept which made the experience very fun!! Definitely would go back to Maynard's on a regular day to dine!!

Appetizer: Beef Diablo. Perfectly spicy.

We went for our anniversary dinner and this place never disappoints! From the appetizers to dessert and my dirty martini, I wanted more! Service is always fast and friendly. The owner stopped by our table and said hi which is always a nice touch. The restaurant is beautiful with an open kitchen but you can't beat the view! Whether your looking for a special occasion or a nightly meal you should check them out. Is it worth the drive?...yes!

Beet salad with whipped goat cheese
Nikki C.

Came for the early bird special... stayed because our taste buds and eyeballs refused to leave. We wandered in on a whim for their 3-course early bird deal and honestly? Best impulsive decision we've made since that "just one more pet" situation. The place is absolutely beautiful -- warm lighting, elegant decor, the kind of vibe that makes you want to pretend you know things about wine. Started strong with a blood orange drop that was so good I had another -- for hydration, obviously. Partner grabbed a beer and we settled in for what turned out to be a seriously delicious ride. For starters: the smoked beet salad with whipped goat cheese was smoky, tangy, and silky all at once (who knew beets could be sexy?). The Caesar salad? Classic and crisp -- no notes. Then came the New York steak, cooked to absolute perfection with a side of roasted veggies and garlic mashed potatoes that were so creamy and garlicky I briefly considered proposing to them. And now... dessert. A white chocolate mousse and flourless chocolate cake duo that made us question every past dessert decision. If licking plates in public were socially acceptable, we'd have done it proudly. The only downside? The service was sloooow. Like, "did they forget we exist?" slow -- which was surprising with just five tables in the place. But honestly, the food and ambiance were so good we just leaned into it and called it leisurely fine dining.

Outstanding dish..This was the salmon with pomegranate glaze and roasted pears with a dirty martini.. Because my wife is classy!!

Now this is what I like, from the food to staff, this place has it all, even the bathrooms are nice. once you walk in, your greeted immediately to the left with an open kitchen where you can see everything being prepared and cooked. That's outstanding, but how does the food look? How does the food taste? I can assure you that you will not be disappointed. I had high expectations and they were met and exceeded. The prices for what you get are fair and comparable for the area if not a little below value, I was very impressed with the plating and even more impressed with the way the food tasted. Oh I almost forgot the views from this place are great!! Perfect for a date night.. and they have a huge parking lot plus an overflow lot.. I almost forgot to mention their huge deck out back, wow!!

Caesar Salad

We are new to the area and Maynard's might be our go to spot! We came in for the early bird special. There was ample parking and the atmosphere inside was classy. We ordered the coconut mule cocktail and it was delicious! The balance of the ginger beer with the coconut cream was fabulous. All of our courses were also great and our server was perfect. She anticipated our needs and made conversation. 10/10!

Gnocchi

Dining on my own, I was seated by the fireplace, which was awesome! I ordered the gnocchi appetizer for my dinner, since I didn't want leftovers. It was the perfect amount! Delicious and very rich. It also gave me room for dessert, the bourbon bread pudding, also very tasty! Thanks to Shannon's suggestions, dinner was a hit!

The Smoked Beet appetizer is a must have! Absolutely brilliant, stunning dish!
Cindy P.

Maynard's has always been our go-to date night, nice dinner, celebration meal restaurant ever since they opened. We've always been greeted warmly when we enter and generally sat within a very short period of time if not immediately. Service is always very professional, attentive and knowledgeable which is rare in our county so very much appreciated! On most nights, the owner and chef can be seen chatting with customers, working in the kitchen or expediting orders, it's reassuring to see him still so involved. As for the food, I can't remember ever going and not getting the smoked beet appetizer, it's out of this world and I've never had it anywhere but here! Hubby is pretty loyal to the tomahawk while I venture around the menu and get anything from a pizza to the special and everything in between! It's a beautiful restaurant with stunning views, especially during sunset, and outdoor seating for our short summer evenings! The reviews on this place are all over the place but I have to say, we've never had a bad meal or a bad experience including our visit last week!

Lunch menu

I don't understand why this place has 3.something stars. It has a great menu, great food, great Happy Hour, great patio... You get where I going with this right? This place is great...

Cod & Chips

Food was fantastic (Cod & Chips), service was perfect, and the atmosphere was clean, calm and airy. The pizza tasted like pizza in Italy. The service for children reminded me of how places were in the 90s.

Drinks

Our 1st dinner at Maynard's was 4 years ago, on our 1st date. My date at the time, had to politely spit the anchovies out into her napkin as they were unexpected and not pleasant. Overall we weren't impressed. After 4 years, we decided to celebrate and give Maynard's another chance. I ordered the prime rib dip sandwich. It was good, but there was a lot of bun and a bit lacking on the prime rib. The fries were good. My now fiancé ordered the Capricciosa Pizza. After one bite, it was apparent that the combination of flavors were not complimentary. The mushrooms added an odd beef fatty flavor to the entire pizza, offset by the Kalamata olives. Her exact question to me was, "do they taste this before they put it on the menu?" I tried a bite of the pizza and thought that it tasted old and unfresh. Service was great. Like any "nice" restaurant, drinks are overpriced.

Chef Maynard himself is very friendly and involved in the everyday things around the restaurant. It is clear he takes pride in and loves his restaurant. He makes us feel welcome from the first and every time we have been here. Their cod n chips are our new favorite in Kitsap county (and anywhere else really). We also think they have the best burgers. And the best traditional chicken wings (I am a Tracyton PH addict). I normally dont like ginger but I love their ginger kissed wings. Try their cinnamon rolls which are better than Cinnabon's (which we don't have around here so I can name drop them). The interior has vaulted ceilings, is comfortably lit, and is utilized very nicely. The decorations are classy and not overbearing or gaudy. The landscaping is very modest, clean, and has a very nice view of both nature and Silverdale. Maynards loves their guests as they do lots of extracurricular events like free movie nights on the lawn, cooking classes, and parking lot car shows.

Fried chicken dinner and the road to Maui pizza.
Kelle O.

I like this place. We had dinner with friends on the patio on a sunny Friday evening and it was great! We were able to bring our dog and there were a couple of other well behaved dogs out there too. I'm a non-drinker so I always appreciate a few mocktail choices. I had pizza, the road to Maui. My boyfriend had the fried chicken. We both liked what we ordered. Our server was great too! The outdoor area is big and has a great water view. There was a 40th birthday party outside too but the area is so big that it wasn't an issue. I'd recommend, especially if you're looking for a dog-friendly option.

Attentive and great potatoes! Usually go before the dinner rush so it's somewhat quiet.

We made reservations here for a special occasion and casually mentioned a low-sodium request. Not…read moreonly did they deliver--they overdelivered. The chef actually called me personally to confirm how low "low sodium" meant. That level of care alone had me ready to give five stars before we even walked through the door. Speaking of the door--the place immediately sets the tone. The interior is modern and sleek, and the entrance door itself is so cool it deserves its own Yelp review. We were greeted by the chef and his wife, which instantly made the evening feel warm and personal. With only four tables total, the setting is incredibly intimate, and we lucked out by having the entire place to ourselves at the chef's table--front-row seats to the magic happening in the kitchen. Dinner and a show, minus the awkward applause. The chef's wife was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. We had great conversations with both of them throughout the night, and it truly felt less like dining out and more like being invited into someone's very stylish home--where the hosts just happen to be exceptionally talented. Now let's talk about the food. The first course was scallops with caviar. The scallops were cooked perfectly--moist, tender, and seasoned just right to balance the caviar without overpowering it. Delicate, flavorful, and honestly a strong opening act. Then came the tomahawk--and wow. Cooked to absolute perfection, with a flawless medium-rare center and beautifully rendered, crispy fat. The mashed potatoes were smooth, rich, and paired perfectly with the peppercorn sauce, which tied everything together like it knew exactly why it was there. Add in the roasted garlic, and you get the perfect bite: tomahawk, mashed potatoes, and roasted garlic in one forkful. I'm still thinking about it. Fair warning: while everything was incredibly delicious, this experience does come with a higher price tag. That said, when you factor in the intimate setting, the thoughtful personalization, and the outstanding quality of the food, it absolutely felt worth it. This is the kind of meal you plan for, savor, and quietly judge other dinners against afterward. An unforgettable experience from start to finish. Come hungry--and maybe emotionally prepared to miss it the next day.

I arranged a Christmas dinner for my parents and was able to reserve and prepay in advance so they…read morecould simply enjoy the evening. The owner was incredibly easy to work with and made the whole process seamless. My parents loved the dinner and said it was the best meal they've ever had--which means a lot considering my dad is 85 and my mom is 80. Afterward, the owner even texted me photos of the Christmas dinners he served them, which was such a thoughtful touch. Classy place, exceptional food and service. I can't wait to eat here myself and highly recommend FAFO.
