Best Family Style Restaurants in Kirkland

Apps, mains and cocktails were delicious! We’ll definitely be back!

Really enjoyed the food and ambience at Spinasse. There were good options on the menu for a vegetarian family. Our waiter, Heather was awesome and very knowledgeable about vegetarian choices and helped make the right choices. A little bit disappointed that 2 desserts on the menu contain pork gelatin, but there were 3 other desserts to choose from. Again, Heather was awesome in steering us in the right direction. Overall a great experience for a special family dinner!

Had the lobster sandwich and would definitely order it again. I’ve had lobster sandwiches before and was never impressed by them but at Water Grill I found a true lobster roll sandwich that was filled with at least 1.5 to 2 lobster tails. It is a definite reorder!! We also ordered the California Spiney Lobster and that was a clear winner too. The fries that come with the lobster roll had to be substituted for mashed potatoes because the fries didn’t look right, but it was very pleasant to see our waitress recognize this was get us something else. The Spanish Octopus appetizer is a must try. I never had seared octopus but noticed it was a popular item in Spain so we had to try it here and it did not disappoint. Also, we found this to be an ideal spot for an adult birthday dinner as it doesn’t have the wild birthday singing but a subtle and pleasantly surprising birthday dessert.

This was our first, but definitely not last time at Como! Food, especially the porcini risotto, and drinks were fantastic. Our waiter, Georgie, was affable, funny, knowledgeable and a general pleasure who went above and beyond. We strongly recommend Como to anyone looking for fine Italian - easily one of our new favorite places on the Eastside!

We enjoyed the clam chowder in a sourdough bowl - it was perfect! So, so good :)
