    Braised short ribs
    Fred R.

    Another delicious meal at The Cottage. Wait staff were friendly and attentive. The drinks were very well made. My wife had a vodka and tonic, and I had the passionfruit margarita We chose the peach flatbread as an appetizer and it was delicious! For our meal, I had the short ribs which were fall off the bone, tender, and perfectly braised. My wife had the chicken Cordon Bleu The piece of chicken was large and so very tender and delicious as well. We swapped a taste of each. Good size portions and we were too full to try dessert this time. My wife totally enjoyed her birthday dinner at The Cottage. Can't wait to go back!

    Vegan Coffee Cake
    Elaine W.

    Came to check this place out with a friend for a Saturday brunch--we picked it since they took reservations, which is sometimes hard to find as a lot of good brunch places won't take reservations on the weekend. I tried the croissant french toast, which was delicious although a tad too buttery for my tastes. It wasn't too sweet and the texture was good (not mushy, more crispy on the outside and bread-like though I wouldn't say it was fluffy either), and since it wasn't too sweet I did get to try their maple syrup, which was a great pairing. Very odd, but I did also order scrambled egg whites on the side which were not something I expected to stand out to me! But they were delicious! I also added some breakfast sausages but they were a bit sweet and I probably wouldn't order them again. The vegan coffee cake was alright, but they topped it with cream cheese which I don't like, so I just had to pick out the bread from the bottom. It totally doesn't taste vegan at all though, so this is definitely a great choice for vegans!

    short rib hash and eggs with gf toast

    Beautiful restaurant, love having brunch at Cottage when visiting Bothell area of Seattle. I enjoyed the short rib hash and eggs and a coconut milk latte. My friend had the shrimp and grits w eggs. Absolutely fabulous, great quality and super fresh. Rachael and rest of the staff are delightful and super friendly. Will be back next time i'm in the area.

    The cottage is one of my favorite brunch spots! I have tried to many dishes and they're all consistently great. They also have tons of cocktail options too. This particular day we got to sit next to the fireplace in the big comfy chairs. It has such a warm and cozy atmosphere. They do also have outside covered dining as well with heaters in case it isn't warm outside. My personal fav is the eggs Benedict on a CROISSANT! The quiche is also a favorite go to with a little side salad for balance. BIG Shout out to Michelle! She is 5/5 on service and made our experience so much fun. Perfect spot for weekend brunch when you want to slow down and enjoy your weekend!

    An extraordinary adventure unfolded at The Cottage, a hidden gem we stumbled upon after a delightful morning of savoring wine tasting in Woodenville, and we're thrilled to have found this Gem! 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.

    Cottage Burger
    Geo N.

    What a cute place for date! Food & drink: (4/5) I was craving something meaty so I got the cottage burger. It really hit the spot! I loved the bun that they use and their bun to meat ratio is good as well (I hate it when it's too bready). Was this the best burger I've ever had? I wouldn't say so, but it was still pretty good. I was kind of sad when they forgot the truffle oil on my fries but it wasn't a big deal to me. The fries themselves were very addicting, crisp, and well salted. I really wanted to try their espresso martini, but since I was driving I got the zero proof pomegranate ginger press. Loved it! It was tangy, fruity, definitely gingery, perfect to cut through your meal. Service: (5/5) They are SO attentive here! It's a smaller, more intimate space and the staff make it feel even homier. Other notes: I would make a reservation if you're going during high traffic meal times since it's a tight fit. There's also a free parking garage across the street if you can't find street parking.

    Short Rib Hash
    Renate H.

    Short Rib Hash: very filling, flavorful, juicy and tender! Topped it off with their homemade mango hot sauce (perfect hint of spice). Service: attentive, knowledgeable, prompt and engaging. Ambiance: cozy, spacious, and welcoming. Definitely coming back for brunch with the ladies!

    Croissant French toast
    Zermin A.

    I had to update my review because the last couple visits I had the experience has been incredible! Definitely recommend the brunch here! It's insanely good! Loved loved loved the croissant french toast, my only recommendation to chef is to serve it with fresh/whipped cream instead of butter. Other than that, it was fantastic! The toast was crispy and cooked to perfection and maple syrup was unreal! So so good! The shoestring hash brown was so beautiful and intricately cooked, I didn't want to eat it coz it looked that pretty! The croissant sandwich was deliciously cooked! It was flaky and so nicely grilled! Loved how well done it was! The caprese sandwich was fantastic! The bread used was perfect, the Waldorf salad with it was was beautiful and tasty! Can't wait to be back! One less star because service is still very slow! The servers are super kind but all over the place unable to manage and not coordinated.

    One of my favorite spots for brunch in the area! The Cottage has such a cozy, welcoming vibe, perfect for lazy weekend mornings. The food is consistently fresh and flavorful--I especially love their avocado toast and lemon ricotta pancakes. Everything feels thoughtfully prepared and satisfying. The staff are friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel warm and relaxed. Whether you're going for a casual brunch with friends or a little treat-yourself morning, The Cottage never disappoints. Highly recommend!

    Charcuterie plate
    Pat F.

    We have never tried this place even though m regularly doing business nearby sometimes in the same parking lot. It always seemed like a trendy expensive wine bar and our trip confirmed that opinion. But I'm really glad that we did try it and it made the wife happy after adult children returned home after Christmas. It was a great "first date" to celebrate our renewed empty nestness. Resy had a great Amex credit that we had to use up so we got a little decadent. Started with Happu hour and an early seating. It was mellow and seated right away . Our server was great, talkative, and good sense of humor. Sorry I forgot to ask his name. We started with a house wine and Pilsner. Got seconds later. Along with charcuterie board. I liked it very much but could have used more crackers and maybe some olives or something?! Very good cheese trio. The mulled pear spinach salad was excellent and when we said we would split it they took the care to plate it individually! Tasty yet slightly overdressed. She got the braised short ribs and they were fantastic with artisan carrots and a mash. Perfectly seasoned and salt level. I got the chicken cordon bleu which I love even though an old time avg dish. I make good one at home so it's like comfort food to me. Theirs was elegant, sliced in pieces, yet heavily sauced with an extremely rich sauce and I think prosciutto instead of jamon. This all made it very tasty but too rich for me to finish. The sprouts were good but I make better ones and eat them a lot. Personally I think a simple green bean or simple green veggie would be the calm partner to such a rich cordon blue. But they brought the flavor to upscale this very avg dish! She succumbed to dessert with the apple crisp and added ice cream. Needed the ice cream!! It was ok but my wife makes a much nicer apple crisp especially when our Asian pear trees are fruiting!! Overall I was surprised that most all of this experience lives up to the hype I see here regularly. We noticed young couples and families coming in for the HH experience but they kept it simple and just light compared to our choices. We could not finish all the food we ordered and the bill was up there!! We might not be back regularly due to that but it's worthy of a splurge for sure! For a restaurant in one of downtown Bothell's oldest and run down buildings, they have done a lovely job decorating and ambience to make you forget that when you are inside! Including an elegantly winter worthy outdoor tent seating. This building was old when I was around in high school in the 80s and it's eventually going to be developed I'm sure. Go try The Cottage if you haven't.

    Firstly, the place is absolutely pretty and fine dine. The business gets pretty busy, so plan accordingly. Service was good too. The lemonade was very refreshing, and the strawberry Matcha was yumm. Coming to the food, to me it was off. The vegan biscuits and gravy came with an egg? Was totally turned off by that, considering it was vegan. Had to request for a new one. In the artichoke dip, I could hardly feel the artichoke and I didn't really like it. The pricing was pretty steep, and I personally didn't feel that it was worth it. The vibe however was great, super nice ambiance too. Not sure if I didn't get the right dishes but I didn't really have a great experience!

    Ruairi M.

    Super yummy! My girlfriend took me out here for breakfast and we both loved it. I had the banana French toast and it was so tasty. The coffees we both got were also fantastic. It's super cozy spot with outdoor seating too and friendly staff. The lunch and dinner looked good as well so I have to come back for that one day. Real good stuff.

    While staying at McMenamins up the street, we came here upon a recommendation meaning to only have a drink at the bar but ended up staying for dinner and a couple rounds. A reservation is highly recommended although we did get lucky and snagged to stools at the bar top. The bartenders were super friendly. There was live music and it was really good. The burgers were amazing and we also ordered the plate of veggies which were delicious. Such an elevated cozy vibe here.

Sat at the bar and tried out some happy hour specials. Got the Korean sauce wings ($12) and cheese truffle fries ($8). Decent amount of fries, definitely has cheese flavor but not that much truffle oil aroma. I liked the wings which you get 6 per order. They weren't fried, but rather tender and juicy. Sauce was agreeable. Definitely enough food for my dinner. As for the drinks, I got the rosemary mule which is Moscow mule with some rosemary herb. The copper mug they use is good sized. Tasted refreshing although could feel the alcohol afterwards. Also tried a corpse reviver no. 2, which was a little sweet but has a punch. Cocktail prices are not cheap outside of happy hour, in the upper teens. Overall, was glad I tried the place out. Will drop by for happy hour once in a while.

My favorites are The Original Zombie, Painkiller, and Jungle Bird. The Original Zombie has a limit of 2 per customer and for a very good reason. They also have a kiddie cocktail menu featuring 4 drinks. And yes, they're non-alcoholic. Their food is also noteworthy. I tried their Tokyo Tots, Nui Nui Banh Mi, Big Wave Brussels Sprouts, and Saigon Kick Chicken Tenders. The Banh Mi was decent and was served with a side of mac salad. The chicken tender was spicy and was topped with pickled carrots and daikon radish. The brussel sprouts were crispy and flavorful. Our server was very attentive and always checked in on our table. Overall, a great neighbor spot. They do have a happy hour menu and is worth checking out.

They have special Whiskey Talk nights and tasting events. You can get also get other drinks and even order food to eat inside.

Michelle and the Sammamish River Trail, and there is a lot to like here. Food & Drink: The food is very good across the board. The chicken sandwich is a standout, and they have some of the better wings in the area if you like a dry rub. The fish and chips have a solid crunch despite being light/airy, and both the beef and lamb burgers are well executed. The homemade black bean burger is an underrated vegan option. The Green Goddess salad is also pretty good, and gluten-free buns are available. They rotate in seasonal items as well, so there is usually something different on the menu. The bar leans more toward cocktails and whiskey than beer. The whiskey selection is great. Other spirits are less diverse, but there is enough to make most cocktails. They are solid at making the classics--I've had the Martini, Paper Plane, Gimlet, and Manhattan here, and all have been very good. The seasonal cocktail menu is also usually well done, with options built around a variety of spirits. This isn't a top-grade cocktail program, but it is pretty solid and fits the vibe of the place well. One of their quirks is the alcoholic milkshake. I haven't had one, but have heard good things. The beer menu is probably a little weak in terms of options for somewhere with "Tavern" in the name. They still have some local brews on tap, but beer clearly isn't the focus here. Ambiance & Service: Hollywood Tavern has a great location in Woodinville, near Chateau Ste. Michelle and the Sammamish River Trail. There is a decently sized parking lot that usually doesn't overflow. The outdoor seating area is solid, complete with Adirondack chairs and a fire pit. Inside looks and feels like a tavern. There is some great wall art showing the building from when it was a gas station and Woodinville was still "out in the sticks." The interior is basically divided into two halves, with the bar on one side. There is a nice rustic wood-top bar with seating for maybe ten, plus additional high-top seating along the windows. There is also an indoor/outdoor-feeling section along the road. There is usually a good buzz in the room. It isn't a quiet or intimate spot, but it also isn't really a "socialize with the locals" type of tavern. It works particularly well for a casual date night or a guys' or girls' night out. Country music (Bluegrass/Americana) is usually what's playing (fairly quietly). It also works surprisingly well for families. Between the noise level and lack of formal dining, it is a good option for a "fancy" family dinner where everyone can still relax. The kids menu is fairly standard, but portions are solid and the value is good. Kids get crayons and coloring menus, and parents can actually enjoy the food and drinks without feeling like they brought their kids somewhere they shouldn't have. Service is above average. The staff is friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the service fits the casual atmosphere well. Final Thoughts: Five stars. Think upscale tavern with more of a focus on cocktails than beer, but with country music and a rustic finish. Hollywood Tavern combines very good food, solid cocktails, a great whiskey selection, above-average service, and one of the better casual atmospheres in Woodinville. It works equally well for a casual date night, a night out with friends, or a nicer family dinner. Von's or The Shed, will get the press/publicity in the area, but for me, this place is an underrated gem. -AC

    I wanted to give this place 3 stars but there were so many fruit flies flying around as we were…read moreeating that the experience dropped another star by the time we left. The food is 3 star level though. So it's.. Okay.. But it wasn't that good. We got the breakfast burrito and the breakfast sandwiche. Presentation was good but flavor was meh. This restaurant gives the feel of trying to do to many things at once. Nothing worked together. The decor was all over the place. The menu tried to cover too many things. The service was friendly and the bathrooms were clean. But ugh.. The flies. I couldn't stand it.
