A cozy restaurant just outside Mt. Rainier and only open during the summers! The patio seating is open and covered. The place is run by a sherpa and has cool memorabilia on display from his time at Mt. Everest. I believe he is now a mountain guide at Rainier. Service is quick and seems everyone working there is family/friends. Food is fantastic. They have American food like burgers and fish&chips, but I've only ever tried their Nepalese food. Chicken thali is served on a lunch tray. It's a good portion for one person! Comes with a small lentil soup/sauce and chicken is moist and flavorful in the curry. They also serve beer/wine/cider. A great stop if you're going to Mt. Rainier! read more

Wildberry Restaurant - American Near Me - Ashford, Washington

Wow!!! An unexpected restaurant in an unexpected location!!!! We thought it was just going to be a run in the mill dinner until we looked at the menu.... Himalayan Food!!! We sat outside to a nice well covered patio. Lots of room and not crowded. The patio overlooks a beautiful meadow. The inside is nice too. With real Mount Everest gear on display. We had the Chicken Thali, Pork Momos, and Papadum. The food was out of this world!!!! Good food is hard to find in Washington State. We are soooooo glad that we found this place. The staff were nice and friendly. The prices were very reasonable as well. We WILL be coming back here again!!!! read more

Family-owned and operated Nepalese restaurant with traditional dishes and a few American classics. We tried the chicken thali and it was tasty. I wish the chicken curry was warmer / sizzling so it could be enjoyed. Unfortunately it was not possible to warm it up. I recommend requesting that it's extra warm when you order. The lentil soup tasted more like corn soup. The pappadum is delicious and worth trying with the chutney as an appetizer! The classic blackberry pie was a delicious way to end the meal with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Service was very good and prompt. Relatively quiet restaurant when we came, with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

We ate here after exploring Mount Rainier. The outside atmosphere was nice . Chairs not comfy. They have a good selection of food both American and Himalayan. The best was pork momas they were so good 5*. We got thesummit burger a triple burger it was a good value for price if you're hungry and paid extra for onion rings. It wasnt amazing but great after hiking all day. Fish and chips for my son was alright again not amazing but he didn't complain. My husband got the chicken thali dish it was good ( no pic as it came later) but we all agreed the pork momas were the best .service was good but nothing special. We also got the mango drink which was so delicious. I'd recommend and would go again just for drink and momas. We were eyeing homemade Marion berry pie but was too pricey for us. read more

This restaurant is super unique bc they serve Himalayan food along with classic American foods. We come here every time we visit mt rainier since it's close to the entrance to Paradise.

At the outskirts of Mt. Rainier national park, is this gem of a place. They are always packed and parking is hard. I feel like we got the last spot of the day and ordered in the last 35 mins before it closes. In $73, we got: - pork momos - 5/5- 8 pcs with yummy dipping sauce (contains sesame). Loved the good quality meat and flavorful dipping sauce. - chicken thali - 4/5- it comes with rice, yellow lentil soup, salad, pickle and chicken curry. The chicken curry and pickles were the best. I wish they reduced quantity of rice and added a roti/ bread as an option - berry pie and ice cream - 5/5- the pie was warm and gooey and it paired perfectly with the vanilla scoop ice cream. Huge portion size. Definitely to share! - chicken burger - 4.5/5- organic good quality chicken breast with yummy toppings. It was amazing. Only thing missing was good hot sauce to go with it. It comes with fries. Loved it!! Service was friendly and quick. Outdoor seating was pleasant. read more

This is a really intriguing Nepalese/American restaurant located right outside the west end of Mt. Rainier National Park. It's owned by a famous Sherpa, who has a small section of the restaurant as kind of a museum to display his accomplishments and allow guests to purchase merch. The restaurant offers free wifi, which was unexpected! I thought it would be empty when we visited for linner at 3PM, but they actually had a decent number of customers inside. Chicken Thali ($22.99) - Quite an array of small dishes comes with this meal. Firstly a bit of lentil dahl, taking inspiration from the link with India. Flavorful with turmeric, allium, curry, cumin, and other spices, smooth and easy to eat. There's a kind of carrot and pea slaw, quite spicy actually, and also pleasingly piquant. Fresh veggies fill another side tray, and finally we run into the main two dishes. Firstly, perfectly cooked basmati rice, moist but with a nice tender yet firm texture. There's then boneless chicken thigh chunks in a very flavorful gravy that seems to be tomato based and seasoned very well. This is stewed, so it's a bit dry, but the gravy and rice make a great accompaniment. (4/5) Sherpa Stew ($15.99) - Very vegetal and meaty tasty stew. It's a thick stew with tons of ingredients packed inside, including carrot, onion, and celery hand chopped into larger chunks. They veggies are softened but not mushy at all and instead still have a bit of a body. There are also green beans to round out the veggies, and then for the meat a good number of beef chunks. The soup is thickened into almost a gravy. I think it's mirepoix and tomato based, but I'm not certain. Regardless of ingredients, it's very flavorful. Overall, it's a very hearty homestyle stew, which seems especially great for after a long winter hike. (4/5) Pork Momo ($15.99) - These seem to be homemade dumplings, with a thicker chewy wrapper, not doughy, and with a great pleating technique that ensures an even cook throughout. The filling is a compact, dense meatball, juicy, with the flavor of cumin, pork, and aromatics. The momos are served with a tomato chutney that also seems to be homemade. It's blended but still a bit chunky. It tastes a bit like garlic, full of balanced umami, without any of the strong acidity from fresh tomatoes. The momo pleats catch the sauce perfectly when dipped in upside down. (4/5) Wildberry Restaurant was certainly a fun place to stop by for linner after hiking near Mt. Rainier! Considering that it's one of the very few restaurants in the area, it seems like a no brainer to visit for some good grub. Bathrooms - Two rooms that require code, which can be found on the back of the drink menu. read more

Delicious Nepalese & American restaurant just minutes outside Mt. Rainer park! We stopped here just before closing after a day at Mt. Rainer, and were seated right away. We sat outside on their large covered patio. Service was very fast and the food was good - I got the Chicken Thali. The chicken was tender in a delicious curry, and the lentil soup that came with was perfect for a cool rainy day. Would recommend for anyone stoping for dinner on the way out of the park! read more

Was staying across the street at Alexander's lodge. This is one of the only decent options nearby. So decided to give a try. They have indoor and outdoor (covered) seating. The server helped is get a table quickly. Ordered a few things. It took some time for the order because the restaurant was packed. 1. Fish and Chips: These were decent tasting and the fries were nice and crunchy. 2. Veg Thali: It came with chole (chickpea curry), rice and dal (lentil soup). Everything was tasty. 3. Dal (lentil soup): Kids basically ate this with a side of rice and they liked it. Overall the food and service were good. read more

Restaurant outside of Rainier National Park that serves burgers and Nepali food. The place is usually packed during meal times and is owned by a Sherpa mountaineer who has submitted Mount Everest many times. He even holds a world record. Service was prompt and efficient but not quite friendly. The food was a bit costly since it is in a semi-remote area but pretty good tasting. I recommend getting rice with the Sherpa stew for a filling hearty meal. I had leftovers. The chicken thali comes with some pickled and raw vegetables, rice, and lentil soup. The soup was good. The chicken was ok. read more

We showed up looking for burgers, were disappointed by the burger selection. Not much to choose from on the menu. Everything we got from fish to chicken, burgers to onion rings seemed to be frozen not fresh. On the other hand. Everyone who ordered Himalayan food seemed to be happy.

This place popped up when I was searching for nearby restaurants with vegan options, so my friends and I dined here after a long day at Mount Rainier National Park. There was a little bit of a line, so we barely inched in before they stopped taking customers. First impressions is that this definitely has a mom and pop feel. We sat in a rather crowded patio, undoubtedly most of the diners were tourists much like us. The service was fairly prompt, and the food was decent. I will say that my Vegetarian Thali could have had a tad more salt, but I felt pretty nourished satiated. I think my companions felt similarly about their dishes. We were happy to have a little mix of vegetables and fresh ingredients after dining on snacks all day long. I only realized this upon leaving and looking at the restaurant website a week later, but this place is owned by well known sherpa (Lhakpa Gelu - he holds record for fastest ascent of Mount Everest) and his wife. They have a little nook displaying his mountaineering equipment and certificates and news stories documenting his amazing feat. read more

Very close to the Longmire visitor center before entering the park, this restaurant has a variety of American, Nepali and vegetarian food. Parking was overflowed to the street. Seating was in a shared table though they have smaller tables as well. There is indoor & outdoor seating. Food came relatively quickly. There is a lot of history here with memorabilia of treks to Mt Everest & Mt Rainier. For vegetarians, there is a Thali & samosas. The staff were quite busy & did not talk much- they were clearly working hard & fast, but you can get a good meal here. read more

This is a neat little place just a mile from the entrance to Mount Rainier national Park. It is owned by a Sherpa who set climbing records at Mount Everest, and has a display of his gear inside.

We love this little spot near the Mount Rainier. The Sherpa stew & Momos are a must every time we visit!

Food: a mixed bag. The Sherpa stew was tasty and comforting. I ordered rice with it, which made it more filling after a long hike. My boyfriend's Summit burger was gross--three nasty, previously frozen patties. The fries that came with it were decent. Service: a bit slow and inattentive. I asked for some more hot water for tea, and it never arrived. Ambiance: the interior smells moldy, so we sat outside. The seats are super uncomfortable out there. All and all, this is an "okay" place. There aren't many options in the area, so it's better than nothing. If you stick with the Nepalese dishes, you'll likely be pleased. read more

We stayed in Ashford for 4 nights to see Mount Rainier so we got to sample most, if not all, restaurants that are available in this small town. Out of the 4 we tried, Wildberry was my second favorite. I got the pork momos and they were so comforting, especially after a long day at Mount Rainier. The ground pork was really tasty and I liked that the dumpling skin wasn't too soft from being steamed. The sauce that came with the dish was a little thin, but it still added flavor. The fries were also pretty spot on as they had a nice crispy texture and a good amount of seasoning. Unfortunately, I found their blackberry pie to be way too sour, which makes me question their ripeness. We got it with vanilla ice cream, and it was an absolute necessity to have sugar to balance out the sourness. Despite the good food, the service wasn't the friendliest, which was pretty in line with the overall customer service we got during our trip to Mount Rainier. The hostess was a little unfriendly and hostile when she greeted us, but at least our server was pleasant. Compared to other restaurants in the area, I preferred the food at Wildberry over Paradise Village Restaurant and Rainier Basecamp Bar and Grill. read more

Surprisingly solid experience. Quick service, food prepared fast, and lovely tent-covered outdoor seating. Enjoyed the samosas and the Caesar salad. The hamburger was solid and great seasoned fries. Only slight disappointment was the crust on the marionberey/blackberry pie, and that it was $9 a slice. read more

Sadly had a pretty negative experience here recently. We'd been excited to see this option near Mount Rainier national Park and we came around 6:30 on a busy weekend. the restaurant was active, but definitely not full. The staff member that sat us was very brusque, and put us at a table inside. There seemed to be a nice outdoor patio area so I asked if there was a table available outside - she kind of snapped at me and I couldn't totally understand her, but I think she said big tables outside? I understand if there wasn't space for us due to restaurant constraints, but didn't appreciate feeling chastised for asking. As others have mentioned, the price is on some of the food is high, but I get that they are operating in a region with not that many other options. We ordered a burger and the veggie thali, which to their credit came out quickly and was decent. While we were waiting, the table next to us was telling us that they had also asked if there were available tables outside, but had been directed inside, whereas we saw many active couples being sat outside almost right after we walked in. Noticing that a few two times had left, we asked if we could move outside while waiting for our food, to a different staff. Member responded 'your food is coming soon' - which is fine, but shouldn't really affect where we sit? All of the interactions made us feel pretty unwelcome there, and we basically ate our food ASAP and left. We were thinking about trying some dessert but didn't really wanna stay. The last thing that felt oversold was that Vitale is listed as coming with some vegetables, and there was literally one single baby carrot, and one broccoli floret on the plate. We wouldn't recommend this to others. read more

Enjoyed Nepalese food here, awesome food selection in an area with limited variety. Recommended

Yummy food, fast service - we definitely went for the Nepali specialties and it was fresh and very flavorful!

This is the only desi food option in Ashford and they only have like 4 options - samosa, chicken/veggie Thali, momos, Himalayan stew. They used to have more options in the past as per my friend, but I guess they have streamlined their menu now. We didn't have any of the non-desi food, so this review is not for that. The Thali was good, but it only comes with rice, dal and some veggies. There is no roti/naan option. The chicken curry was very good. I just wish the Thali had more options. The stew was good too but it was a little bland for me. The samosas were fine. The food isn't bad for sure, but it isn't the best out there. They definitely have the monopoly on desi food in the area. Service and ambiance are fine, nothing exceptional to write home about. read more

We arrived late--7:30pm--on a Monday after hiking up to Carter Falls and back along the Wonderland Trail in the late afternoon, so we were tired and hungry; but we knew they'd be closing soon (8pm). We were seated right away and quickly determined we'd try the Nepali & Himalayan dishes: papadum as an appetizer to share four ways, chicken thali (ordered by 2 of us), and Himalayan stew with sides of basmati rice (ordered by the other 2). We thoroughly enjoyed both dishes, which were shared among the 4 of us. They were piping hot, just a little spicy, and very filling. After slowing down, and wanting to leave room for the legendary Marion blackberry pie, we got the last of our leftovers to go. Then we devoured a piece of the phenomenal pie with a heavenly flaky crust and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. We enjoyed a display about the owner's climbs of many of the world's tall peaks, including Everest (Guinness World Record for fastest climb), Denali, Mt. Rainier (95 ascents), and others. I would describe the ambiance as busy and bustling--we did not expect a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. The focus seemed to be on delivering food to their many guests as quickly as possible. And at that they are quite successful! read more
