Best Cozy Restaurants in Sammamish

The food was exceptional. So many great menu options it was tough to decide. We had a party of 6 and each ordered a different entree -- trout, banh mi, french dip, ahi salad, burger, and the prawn scampi. All noted as delicious and satisfying --fairly large portions. I ordered the sticky rice thinking it would just be two small ones, as it is most other places I have ordered from, but it was actually 5 on a plate and about 2-3 bites worth each one. We cut them in half and shared. It is very dark inside in certain sections, especially contrasted to the bright outside if you have a table by the door like we did. The service was pretty average. We saw our server three times, once to bring water and immediately take our order (didn't have a lot of time to think it over, though we could've asked, but felt a little rushed), then he brought us drinks, then at the end for the bill and cleaning up dishes, but nothing in between to check on us. Music is too low to hear but there's a lot of conversation happening in a small space so the music serves as somewhat of a white noise. I would definitely go back, I want to eventually try everything on the menu!

Bonnie, our server, was absolutely amazing! She was very attentive, anticipating all of our needs, and she knew the menu very well. She was also very happy, friendly, and accommodating to our food sensitivities. The ambience is wonderful, perfect in every way. Unfortunately, the quality of the food has gone downhill. They used to have some of the best fried chicken in the area, for example. Now, nearly every dish contains a lot of onions and the food is often overcooked.

Overall great experience. Friendly service and good food and drinks.

Went for the first time to celebrate a girlfriend’s birthday and the tearoom is so cute and charming! The food was great, the service was helpful and friendly, the tea was delicious and the assortment of fingerfood were delightful and yummy! The ambience was very festive due to it being the holiday season which was a bonus and can’t wait to revisit see how it’s decorated normally!

The restaurant did an amazing job dealing with a power outage in nearby neighborhoods meaning it was packed! Our server was so busy managing many tables yet our drinks and meals were served in a timely manner. The food was well-prepared and delicious. Recommend pasta carbonara and spaghetti bolognese. Also, the Barbera and Chianti wines by the glass were very nice.
