    Disgusting
    Mel T.

    The food is so salty that it was not edible or possible to finish. I am Vietnamese so my tolerance for salty food is rather high but this was too much. It certainly was not worth the price.

    The Barking Frog is a well known and trusted restaurant in the community. They have a slightly upscale but comfortable ambiance, international dishes and great service. Everything was tasty, ask the waiter for recommendations and they will allow you to swap sides if there's something you don't like. All in all is always a good experience at the Barking Frog

    Bergamot dessert
    Huy T.

    Dropped by Barking Frog yesterday for a business dinner with a group of six, and honestly, the kitchen nailed it. We started off sharing a few apps for the table. The crab cakes had a perfect sear, and the oysters were incredibly clean and well-shucked. The poke udon was an inspired standout--the texture of the fish cut into an udon shape was spot on. For the protein, I went with the lamb and lobster tail. The lamb was perfectly executed--tender, great mouthfeel, and the flavor profile was balanced without being overpowering. The lobster was butter-poached to perfection with a great snap. I ended up double-padding the finish with two desserts (no regrets). The bergamot was a nice hit of acidity to cut through the meal, and the crème brûlée had a flawless, glass-like torch on the sugar. It's rare to see a menu where every plate has such a distinct identity and well-developed flavors, but the line really nailed the execution. Service was top-tier, too. The FOH staff were super friendly, knew the specs of every dish, and hit that sweet spot of being attentive without hovering. Our entire group loved the meal. If you're looking for a spot that's low-key but brings high-end technique, this is it.

    Earl Gray chocolate ice cream affogato
    Jason G.

    They are absolutely fantastic!!! I have some pretty gnarly allergies and they totally were willing to work with me and went above and beyond which made me feel really comfortable. And I don't get that very often. Tyler the manager was wonderful... And so full of knowledge about the area. I recommend the Earl Gray chocolate ice cream in an avocado style. I give that a 10 out of 5 start!!!! Well I'll definitely be having it tomorrow. They make their own ice cream and it is fantastic. The Earl Gray is so pleasant but the chocolate comes through perfectly as well. I don't know how they did it and the great thing is is I don't need to know. We also got food and that was great too. But this was my #1

    Cute and cozy inside. Great date night spot. Service is great and the food is good even though it's a little overpriced. You do get a surprisingly decent portion though for a fine dining experience.

    Great spot for brunch, lunch or dinner. Perfect if you are celebrating a special occasion of just having a casual catch up with a friend. The service is great, friendly and knowledgeable staff and absolutely delicious food. The beignets are a must-try! And the glazed prawns. Sooo Soo good. Oh and fish and chips too! I love that they have a seasonal menu so we get to try something new almost every time we visit. Plenty of parking !

    Still a great, elegant place to go! Went hear during SRW (funny, I was reading my review from SRW 2019!). Definitely a place for special occasions or a treat to yourself. Food and service are excellent! While waiting we were served amuse-bouche -- pureed salmon I think. But whatever it was, it was delicious! First course, we liked both dishes and hard to choose which one we liked more of because they were so different from each other. I'm glad I got to try them both! We appreciated the heads up from our server that that only 2 were left of the Matsutake & Chanterelle Veloute and that he can reserve both of them for us if interested. - Scallop Crudo autumn tide - charred cucumber essence, umeboshi pickled apple, toasted wild rice crackle, shiso oil - Matsutake & Chanterelle Veloute - wild foragers sunchoke, smoked huckleberry oil, spruce-toasted seed crips. Second course - another 2 equally great dishes! - Braised pork belly & wild gatherings - heritage pork belly, foraged walnut gremolata, parsnip silk, black garlic-cacao jus. - Cedar smoked sturgeon - fennel pollen lacquer, chanterelle conserva, ember roasted squash, pumpkin seed romesco Third course - 3 for 3! - Pumpkin bread pudding - orange toffee sauce, cranberry compote, white chocolate - Dark chocolate coffee ganache - crispy praline base, caramelia cremeux, chocolate cracker If you want to treat yourself to great food and service, this is the place to go! Worth every $$$$.

    Huckleberry pancakes
    Hanna S.

    Ambience. Design fabulous Lodge Pacific Northwest Feel. Monday morning breakfast is easy and not too busy. Big difference from their weekend branches. Pretty good coffee drinks. They make their chocolate Grenache for the mocha in house. My husband liked the huckleberry pancakes, although I thought they could have more berries There wasn't much for me except for avocado toast with fell flat. The avocado was more like a mash, and the bread was not even warm or toasted. It was bland . I only had a few bites. But they were kind and helpful. I wish they had steel cut oats I urge them to create some more options for a vegan and or just anyone who wants a lighter healthy fair. We will try them tonight

    We had a delicious and expensive breakfast this morning at the Barking Frog. It wasn't crowded and we sat outside. The service is great and so is the avocado toast! It's really pretty inside and out and fun and very relaxing! Our waitress Mo is delightful! The berries are grown here and so delicious!

    Mushroom carrot puree
    Juz C.

    Went here for Seattle Restaurant Week. This is the menu choices you can have for a 3-course lunch meal at $35. I love the mushrooms appetizer and cauliflower soup (very creamy). The duck confit was also pretty good as a main dish. The Butternut squash risotto had some pickled onions or something. The dessert the honey butter ice cream was surprisingly good, and the chocolate panna cotta was very rich and really good too. The staff were super nice and really hospitable. We had a Wed lunch reservation so not alot of people which is also good.

    Oysters

    I stayed at Willows Lodge with a few girlfriends, and we had two meals at Barking Frog. Overall, service was amazing and food and drinks delicious. We loved that the server brought tastings of wine he would pair with our meals. The oysters were fabulous, lamb and scallops delicious. Salmon was very undercooked. Creme brûlée delish. For breakfast, we had eggs Benedict (perfect) and huckleberry pancakes. I would recommend they add more huckleberries, but again service was fantastic.

    Barking Frog Platter
    Ya-Wei W.

    Food was delicious, was recommended the Huevos Rancheros when my friend and I couldn't decide on a second dish! We got that and the Barking Frog platter and it was all absolutely delicious and perfect portions. We didn't have reservations so they asked if we were ok to sit at the bar. Turned out the bar is actually very spacious and comfortable. On top of all that they let us take the small jars of jam with us to-go! So fun. We'll definitely be back!

    Caitlin H.

    First off, it is pretty difficult to get seated here if you don't have a reservation. Food-wise, it's your standard American breakfast. The huckleberry pancakes and egg dishes are pretty good, but nothing special. Service was decent, I wished they came around with coffee refills without us having to ask multiple times. The ambience is nice, across from the hotel. Overall, this is a solid breakfast spot with your traditional breakfast dishes.

    Ask the Community - Barking Frog

    Is there a view at brunch at the Barking Frog?

    I don't remember a view. The seats by the window only show the lodge across from the restaurant, so I would say no view.

    Is this place kid friendly?

    I would ultimately say yes, it is. It is still pretty upscale so the meals are not inexpensive. For breakfast one day they had coloring for the kids. Dinner, they didn't, but we brought stuff to entertain them as dinner took awhile.

    Do you have a vegan menu?

    The Barking Frog lists all their menus on their website. At this time I do not see a vegan menu.

    When is brunch served and when is lunch served?

    Lunch is weekdays. Brunch is weekends.

    Reservation required on any day brunch?

    It is advised. It is not a large place and most people make reservations. Walk-ins can have long waits.

Obviously the person on the grill wasn't trained or wasn't paying attention. Pacing was also a problem. Waited pretty long to order. Then salads came while we were finishing last bites of the appetizer. Then entrees came while I was literally in the middle of my salad. Talk about rushed. That salad would have been good if the shaved parm had been shaved. However, the pieces of parm were huge - really thick. Can't imagine who would think that was a good bite on a salad. The Broccolini was half cooked. I could barely cut the stem with a steak knife. Obviously. I couldn't eat those stems. They did not have a flight of wine that was all reds (i don't drink white wine). So why 4 stars instead of less? The mushroom toast appetizer was fantastic. I shouid have stopped there and would have been happy. The ceasar dressing and large crouton were good, even if the shaved parm was a bust. Once the steak was served to me medium as I'd ordered it, it was delicious and the fries were crispy and went well with the steak. I enjoyed the glass of wine I ordered. I hope they get their act together - such potential!

Two glasses of wine, a shared app, and an entree took 2.5 hours when we knew what we wanted to order from the second we got there. That is unacceptable in my opinion. Our waiter also kept messing up our order and never took accountability at all. He brought one entree and then didn't bring the rest of ours for 25 min, then said "wow you are done already!" To our one friend. It was so weird. At the end of the meal, we told the hostess that we didn't want to have any more interactions with our waiter or have to wait any longer for the bill. She was super understanding and gave us all comment cards and a caramel, which was a lovely touch. We all wrote specific comment cards with time stamps and thoughts and filled out the contact info and then never heard from anyone. Strange.

Michelle and the Sammamish River Trail, and there is a lot to like here. Food & Drink: The food is very good across the board. The chicken sandwich is a standout, and they have some of the better wings in the area if you like a dry rub. The fish and chips have a solid crunch despite being light/airy, and both the beef and lamb burgers are well executed. The homemade black bean burger is an underrated vegan option. The Green Goddess salad is also pretty good, and gluten-free buns are available. They rotate in seasonal items as well, so there is usually something different on the menu. The bar leans more toward cocktails and whiskey than beer. The whiskey selection is great. Other spirits are less diverse, but there is enough to make most cocktails. They are solid at making the classics--I've had the Martini, Paper Plane, Gimlet, and Manhattan here, and all have been very good. The seasonal cocktail menu is also usually well done, with options built around a variety of spirits. This isn't a top-grade cocktail program, but it is pretty solid and fits the vibe of the place well. One of their quirks is the alcoholic milkshake. I haven't had one, but have heard good things. The beer menu is probably a little weak in terms of options for somewhere with "Tavern" in the name. They still have some local brews on tap, but beer clearly isn't the focus here. Ambiance & Service: Hollywood Tavern has a great location in Woodinville, near Chateau Ste. Michelle and the Sammamish River Trail. There is a decently sized parking lot that usually doesn't overflow. The outdoor seating area is solid, complete with Adirondack chairs and a fire pit. Inside looks and feels like a tavern. There is some great wall art showing the building from when it was a gas station and Woodinville was still "out in the sticks." The interior is basically divided into two halves, with the bar on one side. There is a nice rustic wood-top bar with seating for maybe ten, plus additional high-top seating along the windows. There is also an indoor/outdoor-feeling section along the road. There is usually a good buzz in the room. It isn't a quiet or intimate spot, but it also isn't really a "socialize with the locals" type of tavern. It works particularly well for a casual date night or a guys' or girls' night out. Country music (Bluegrass/Americana) is usually what's playing (fairly quietly). It also works surprisingly well for families. Between the noise level and lack of formal dining, it is a good option for a "fancy" family dinner where everyone can still relax. The kids menu is fairly standard, but portions are solid and the value is good. Kids get crayons and coloring menus, and parents can actually enjoy the food and drinks without feeling like they brought their kids somewhere they shouldn't have. Service is above average. The staff is friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the service fits the casual atmosphere well. Final Thoughts: Five stars. Think upscale tavern with more of a focus on cocktails than beer, but with country music and a rustic finish. Hollywood Tavern combines very good food, solid cocktails, a great whiskey selection, above-average service, and one of the better casual atmospheres in Woodinville. It works equally well for a casual date night, a night out with friends, or a nicer family dinner. Von's or The Shed, will get the press/publicity in the area, but for me, this place is an underrated gem. -AC
