Orchard Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
Had a wonderful dinner here with my family, wife got the macaroni and cheese (which I sampled - delicious) and I got a perfect steak. Waiters were fabulous. Compliments to the chef! Thanks for having us!
I have been here twice with groups of friends not from the area, and neither visit has disappointed! My friends have come away raving about the overall experience, and deservedly so. The service is friendly and attentive but not overbearing, the food is literally so, so delicious with enough choices to satisfy multiple palettes. The ambiance tops it off-- it's a bigger restaurant but never too loud. Can't wait to come again!
Came here for our girls weekend Lovely place ! We loved the drinks and the service was amazing. Brandon was a great manager and gave my group of 11 a tour of the winery which is drop... dead.... Gorgeous.... This is my second time here and our whole group agreed that we would come back! Thanks for a lovely time !
Best experience! We had a cozy couch at the front and they thought of everything- the couch sits low and the table height is high enough that you can very comfortably eat at it. The staff was so friendly and helpful and the food was simply incredible. Our salads were not only works of art, but delicious (House salad and Burrata salad). Our mains were two of the best meals we've had in some time- The spiced cider and beer braised short rib was quite generous and everything about it was satisfying. The Wild Cod was PERFECTLY cooked- and was a delicate and creatively spiced top notch experience. We will be back!!
We had an exquisite meal for our family on Christmas Eve. I don't think that we could say that one thing was our favorite from the elk to the Ragu to the risotto to the pork and the cod. Everything was excellent.
Food Service Ambience Not good for to go's have never been able to get anyone on the phone, always voicemail lol
Official review would be a 4.5. We sat at the chef's bar and had an awesome experience. The food was really good, we particularly liked the cauliflower and the clam starters. We also really enjoyed our cocktails. I'd only give the entrees a four out of five, but I'd definitely plan to come back on another visit to Cle Elum and would recommend to others for a good meal and vibe.
Fabulous service!! I was really impressed that a cool place like this was in Cle Elum and open on a Sunday. We met the owner very nice person and the food was delicious. I give it five stars for delivering just as described. They have a dish with kimchi that is fantastic they even gave me extra kimchi :) love the accommodation.
Delicious food, great atmosphere and awesome service. Lead server Jodi was amazing. Love the pace and energy. Highly recommended.
