    Chefs table.
    Julian G.

    Arguably one of the if not the best dining experiences in Seattle. The service, the food, the atmosphere, the wine, and everything in between is (in my eyes) carefully crafted well balanced perfection. I reserve 5 stars for places you plan your day around. I would give The Peasant 6 stars if I could. As this is a place your plan your vacation plans around.

    the menu for the restaurant

    Creative small restaurant operated by a daytime butcher shop, for adventurous meat loving eaters. They offer 14-16 seats per night on a set menu of the chef's choosing. On the day I visited the menu comprised of pork cheek, pumpkin, pate, geese, and a chocolate cake. The pork cheek was great and chocolate cake was my favorite. Pate was too salty and dense for me. There's practically no carb on the menu but I still came home stuffed with the protein/fat heavy meal. Service was good. They charge an automatic 20% service charge on top of the $150/person fee, so it ends up around $200/person with tax and fees.

    Came here for an anniversary dinner with my partner. Was surprised when we walked in and found that most of the patrons would be sat around a shared table - I thought this was an interesting concept but unfortunately with Seattle freeze, people don't really like to talk to each other so everyone mostly just had sidebar conversations with their party. Overall the food was pretty good. I love tasting menus and I know that there's always some dishes that may not be quite to my taste and others that I'll love, which was definitely the case here. Surprisingly I wasn't the biggest fan of the tenderloin, but I still frequently think about the custard. Most of the alcohol pairings were decent but I believe one of the wines was actually corked - probably should've said something but I didn't notice until the wine was mostly finished and just felt that it wasn't the biggest deal.

    I bought sausage and steak at Beast and Cleaver before but this was my first time dining at The Peasant. You have to make a reservation as very limited seating inside the butcher shop. The waitress and sommelier were wonderful. They were very attentive to our needs. We got London Royal, Royale Steak with Foie Gras, Whole Roasted Cabbage, and A5 Smash Burger. The burger was a bit salty for me and the sautéed onions were messy as it keeps falling out but overall good flavor. The steaks were amazing! We got London Royal rare as recommended and super soft to the bite. The Royale Steak was wonderful with more rich flavor. I absolutely love the roasted cabbage, the sauce was delicious and great compliment to the meat dishes. Would love to come back whenever I craved for steak!

    Amazing tasting menu. Tons of creativity, great casual atmosphere, get to talk to the chef, he gave me an extra portion of pork tongue lol. Amazing place. Only minor detraction was that my chair sitting at the bar was kind of uncomfortable. Haha. Still amazing.

    Food and service are excellent but 4 of 16 seats in restaurant are extremely uncomfortable - high seats at an extremely thin counter edge that really is just made to fit a drink. It's a shame because everything else was stellar but when you spend $500 for 2 you want far more comfortable.

    This is our second time being here. Last time was about three years ago. The place hasn't changed…read moreat all and not a bad way at all the chef the staff were all absolutely exceptional, and the food speaks for itself. We got to our reservation a little bit early and went on a pre-dinner garden walk, which included sampling multiple items in the garden, which kind of set the mood for the night. Right before heading out for the garden walk, we had an amuse bouche style bite. Once we were done with the garden walk, we sat at our table which was a communal table, which had two other couples, and we all three became very acquainted with each other by asking questions and given a background of who we are. As you can tell by the menu in the picture that I have posted that it was a very great listing of food items that were prepared for our evening and the pictures do not speak justice the flavor that was represented My wife really loved the Fieldhouse as I love the sunshine daydream. As the Fieldhouse was number two on my list, the tomatoes were 100% out of this world and were very flavorful. The place is always clean and organized and the staff is very friendly and helpful as well as they make sure that your time being spent there is 100% worth it. Ask for the recommendation I usually tell people I highly recommend a place but this place is a number one place. I tell people about if they want to have a romantic evening or special event plan that is surrounded by food and wine and good company. This place is a hands-down top-tier in Washington state. Thank you Chef Chris and GM Jack. As a sidenote, during the pre-dinner garden walk. I walked up to the general manager, Jack and told him how much I enjoy this place previously and his memory was on point of three years ago and remembered exactly where we sat and what I did for a living and everything ,100% surprising and it set the mood that the people here care about everybody.

The reservation is for 7pm but you can arrive as early as 615pm to explore the gardens, wine cellar, and library, as well as get a welcome (non-alcoholic) refreshing beverage. All of the staff were introduced and they explained both the food menu and the wine pairings. During the meal, there's a live guitarist playing classical takes on tunes. Everyone is super polite, they commented on my Labubu and their custom (hand knit!) hat - shoutout to Rosalee for the Labubu hat. Here's the menu and the pairings. My thoughts were that the peas stood out but otherwise it was a forgettable meal. The space is nice and the ingredients are high quality, but I don't know if the price was fully justified by the overall experience. I think it was like $325/person plus service and tax fees?

Located on a farm on Whidbey island this restaurant is truly farm to table-sourcing produce from their farm and the island to serve a menu of what is in season. Our menu featured an amazing eggplant croquette, a roasted oyster, a panzanella with the most amazing fresh tomatoes, a fresh pesto pasta, the most tender lamb (hogette) of your life, a cheese course and a wonderful blueberry tart to close it out. Everything was great. It is a single setting, based on the weather you can be outside, in the barn or in the kitchen. The setting on the farm is just perfect. Service is always excellent. It is a 3 hour experience but very well paced. The servers all seem experienced and that they enjoy working there. They are also very community connected and community minded. So great to support a business like this. It is expensive but well worth it. A MUST if you love food and are visiting Whidbey.

    Came with my husband on a Saturday evening for date night…read more The ambiance of this spot is really cute and cozy. Very intimate and perfect for a date. They have two tasting menus (omnivorous and vegetarian) which I appreciate. We both chose the omnivorous. Portions are tiny but there's a lot of courses. A huge downside for us was how long in between courses there was. We were getting pretty hungry at one point and our conversation fell into a lull because we were just eager for food lol. The experience was around 3.5 hours. It would have been a lot better if it stuck to 2 hours. Maybe 3 max. Food was beautifully presented and quite tasty though!

One creative dish after another, each exciting my palate in new and different ways, mixing unexpected ingredients together for a surprisingly refreshing experience The restaurant itself kept one's eyes busy, a semi-mediaeval ambience reinforced the feeling of being someplace special, even exotic. The service was excellent and also very friendly. The server doubled as a bartender and was eager to create interesting concoctions on demand, lending his own creativity to the process. This place is highly recommended if you are looking for unique and interesting experiences - and quality on top of that

Most of the time I have the experience that they just stack the drinks. Kept water replenished, too. Their bathrooms are light and bright and the sink is outside the rooms. I loved that the sink water was slightly warm. Always a huge plus for me as my hands are often cold. Would definitely go back here and anticipate doing so next week!

We ordered hummus, garlic naan, fish masala and special kebabs without lamb which was accommodated per our request. The food even the side veggies were really good, we all liked everything. I like this place for good quality fresh ingredients that I don't feel overstuffed. It's probably because the food is easy to digest? This doesn't happen with other Mediterranean and Indian food. I'd like to come back when they start lunch buffet again.
