Sat at the bar and had two bartenders waiting on me. Both were awesome and attentive. Ordered an Old Fashioned and was very impressed. After talking with one of the bartenders, I took her recommendation on the Bolognese Pasta. Had never ordered before, mainly because I can't pronounce it and don't want to sound like an idiot, but think I will again. My fiancé said I would like it and recommended I order it as well. I did like it. Had the right amount of sauce to go with the pasta. Was on the spicy side, but I'm sort of a wimp when it comes to spice. Highly recommend this establishment.

I don't think I was fully prepared for what was about to happen when I sat down at this Mexican…read morerestaurant, because what started as a normal meal quickly turned into something borderline spiritual. Everything was going great--the atmosphere, the service, all of it--but then the chips and salsa arrived. At first, it seemed standard: warm, crispy chips and a fresh-looking salsa. But the moment I took a bite, it genuinely felt like my entire sense of taste reset. The salsa had this perfect balance of heat, acidity, and freshness that was almost unreal. It wasn't just good--it was the kind of flavor that makes you stop mid-conversation and just process what just happened. And I'm not exaggerating when I say that after a few more bites, I fully transcended. Time stopped meaning anything. The noise of the restaurant faded out. It felt like I had a direct, life-changing encounter with something greater than myself... all through a bowl of salsa. I just sat there in silence, staring at the table, trying to comprehend how something so simple could taste that incredible. Apparently, I was gone for a while. Long enough that the staff started to get concerned. Next thing I know, I'm being gently brought back to reality by one of the servers asking if I was okay. I tried to explain what I had just experienced, but I don't think "I just met God through your salsa" is something they hear every day. At that point, I may have still been a little too overwhelmed to function like a normal person, because the staff actually ended up helping me out the door. Not in a bad way--they were super kind about it--but I think they could tell I was still processing whatever just happened. Even now, I'm not entirely sure how to explain it, but I do know one thing: that was not just a meal. That was an experience. And if you go, just be warned--the chips and salsa might change you.

We started with cocktails. Hubby had a satisfying peach Moscow Mule and I had the Bistro Margarita that was one of the best margaritas I have ever had (and I've had my share). The Grand Marnier prawns were excellent and the Burrata with fresh peaches was amazing. We saw a table of four ladies order the carafe of sparkling cocktails and they clearly enjoyed the order--their glasses came with fresh flowers on each. Lovely. A glance around the restaurant showed other diners were clearly happy. Hubby had the steak frites and I had the poulet frites. Both were great. For dessert, the lemon tart was full of body and luscious and the strawberry gelato was clearly fresh. Service was spot on. Chelan is a seasonal resort town, so many of the servers are 20 or under. I don't know the age of our server Sophie, but her service was top notch and clearly surpassed her age. The place is lovely; decor is tasteful and thoughtful, the restaurant was spotless and it's a lovely dining experience for a great night out. This will become our habit in Chelan.

We came here to celebrate a birthday--just three ladies enjoying a night out--and overall had a…read morereally nice experience with a few hiccups. We started with two mocktails and an IPA. The mocktails were not only delicious but beautifully presented, which made them feel a little extra special. For appetizers we had the house bread & butter and the French onion soup. The bread was fresh and paired with a high-quality, creamy butter that tasted amazing. The French onion soup arrived in the cutest little pot with a lid and had a rich, savory flavor with perfectly melted cheese on top. Unfortunately, there were whole peppercorns in the soup (I fished out four), which was surprising and almost ruined an otherwise great dish. Entrées were a mix of hits and misses. The grilled salmon with dinner potatoes was the star of the night--perfectly cooked, flaky, and full of flavor. Absolutely spot on. The crab cakes were a good size with lots of crab and a nicely crisp exterior, but I did find pieces of crab shell in mine. The side salad that came with it was the biggest disappointment--no option to swap it out and the lettuce was visibly brown. We also ordered the mushroom pasta. I didn't personally try it, but it looked great; however, I was told the flavor was a bit lacking. Dessert totally redeemed any small issues--the chocolate mousse cake was incredibly decadent and rich. Definitely a must-try. I even took a slice home for my husband. Service was friendly and attentive, drinks were great, and most of the food was very good. Our total was close to $200 for three people, which felt fair for the quality and the occasion. Would come back again--especially for that salmon and the chocolate mousse cake--just hoping for a little more consistency next time

Fantastic Experience at The Cove - Don't Miss Trivia Night!…read more We originally came to The Cove for a wine tasting with 2205--which was a fantastic experience on its own. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the space felt comfortable and relaxed, perfect for sitting back and catching up with friends. That's how we learned about their Trivia Night, and we're so glad we came back for it! We visited The Cove for Trivia Night and had an amazing time! I came with my husband and my dad--it was my dad's first trivia experience, and my husband and I have done a few before. This one was by far our favorite. There were five rounds, including a music and movie section that was our groups favorite. Everyone got to contribute, which made it even more enjoyable. The host was engaging and kept things running smoothly and upbeat. The service was wonderful and personable--you can really tell they care about what they've created. The space is beautiful inside and out, with great vibes and plenty of seating. We ordered the wine cocktail--so good!!!! It's located close to downtown Chelan, and while there is parking, it's also easily walkable from most spots in the area. I'd recommend making a reservation, especially for trivia night. We're not local, but we'll absolutely be back--this place is a gem!

We didn't arrive with reservations and it seemed like all the customers that did this were seated…read moreoutside. Which would be fine, except their outdoor seating is extremely dirty and due to the amount of trees around, covered in pollen. So it almost felt like second class or a punishment. I slapped the chair cushion and it was like it had never been dusted before. Not that I expect the outdoor seating to be clean at all times, I would expect a higher end place like this that features wine on their menu to make an effort to keep things tidy for all guests. The food itself, was actually pretty good. The deep fried artichoke seriously missed the mark in seasoning and presentation (maybe have the sauce on the side to dip?) but the steak and short ribs were amazingly tasty. Great flavors. We also did a wine flight and the wines were very good as well. One of the glasses still had lipstick on it unfortunately. A couple of the glasses looked rushed to clean. It was replaced and all was well. But still.. attention to details here seems to be an issue. If you come here, make a reservation. Sit inside. Might have a better experience. Get the short ribs or steak and some wine and it will be a lovely experience.
