Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Fall City

What an incredible experience overall! Everything we had was absolutely amazing, from drinks and appetizers to the entrees. The staff was very kind and attentive, and we can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful Valentines dinner. The pre fix menu had many great choices. We chose: Lobster bisque, salmon caviar crostini, waygu NY Steak with a lobster tail and flourless choc cake. Butternut squash soup, buratta, lobster risotto and crème burley. Every item was cooked to perfection. I have never heard my husband give so much praise to how outstanding his steak was. The timing of each part of the 4 course meal was perfect. The musician played great music with out being to loud. Ryan our favorite server took great care of us. We will be back. Sparrow is our favorite neighborhood restaurant! (I forgot to include that there was a singe stemmed red rose on our table when we were seated which I thought was a very nice touch done for all guests)

I have heard a lot about John Howie steaks and I must tell you, they are delicious! My dinner partner and I started out with the tempura bacon and bread basket for appetizers. The bacon is thick and it is simply fantastic. The sauce was a must try. I wish I could eat tempura bacon every day. The bread basket was a nice touch and provided a good assortment of warm bread. We also had an honeycrisp apple salad. The sweetness of the apple complemented the light dressing and greens. For our entrees, we sprang for the 8 oz. Japanese A5 Wagyu ribeyes. Of course this is one of the best steaks on the menu. I had high expectations for this steak in the hands of a steak connoisseur like John Howie. It was the best wagyu I've eaten outside of Japan. These are Miyazaki Wagyu, so you know it is quality meat. They are highly marbled, very tender, and exceptionally delicious. They had a very nice wood grilled flavor. I ordered mine medium rare, and my partner had medium. Both were cooked perfectly. We also chose the truffle fries for our side. They were awesome and they were a shareable dish. For dessert we tried the flourless volcano cake and the crème brûlée. Both were done well, but the crème brûlée was phenomenal. The ambiance is nice as it is an upscale restaurant surrounded by upscale designer stores. The music was playing and the volume was just right. The service is five star all the way. These folks work hard for the automatic 20% service charge. It's one of the few places where you truly do get exceptional service. For example, our water glasses were always full. Before they were half empty, they were magically refilled. All of the service was fast, efficient, personable and professional. I highly recommend entering the garage via 8th avenue NE. You can use the valet or use self park nearest the Amethyst elevators on level P1. Parking is validated when you check in at the restaurant. This is definitely a superb special occasion venue. I will be back.

My husband surprised me with a pre-Valentine's dinner at Café Juanita, and it was an unforgettable experience. The service was impeccable, and the wine pairing was spot-on. The steak was grilled to perfection—something I rarely find when dining out, as it's often overcooked or undercooked elsewhere. The romantic ambiance made the evening feel truly special, taking us back to the early days of our 25-year journey together. A night to remember!

Great place, delicious food and nice people with pretty good experience out there. The view is fantastic !!
