Northwest Chef and Edmonds native Jake Wilson brings his signature care for cuisine and jovial grin to Main Street in Downtown Edmonds. At the heart of the kitchen is a charcoal fired grill, inspired by the Argentinian Santa Maria style, and custom built to serve the finest bounties of the Pacific Northwest. Located in the Graphite Art Center building on 2nd and Main, Charcoal is where food and art come to meet.

    Our 5th time back - consistently fantastic each time - the service is top notch and highly recommend the Whisky Sours. And the wine list is one of the best in the Northwest. Even on a busy Sunday night, Charcoal always exceeds our expectations..... Keep up the good work Charcoal...

    We like Charcoal very much: reliably good food and wine, friendly service, and pretty decor. However, their bar either needs to become "a full bar" or the restaurant can focus on their already good wine selection and forget cocktails. We've now been told twice that the bar was unable to make our requested cocktail: no fruit juice for a French martini (and in the summer, no blender for a frozen daiquiri or a pina colada). One other small negative: the front door bangs shut, jarring the tables next to windows near the door; it should be fixed.

    Our second time visiting Charcoal and had an amazing experience. Service was impeccable and food was exquisite and unique. And as one of the nicer restaurants in Edmonds, I found the prices relatively affordable.

    The ambiance is great and inviting. The food is good; however, the portions were small for the price they charge. The location is excellent.
