One of the best things about Ravenous is that they will help you create the menu you want--meaning you don't need to pick a few things off a pre-built list. We knew we wanted an epic taco bar and Ravenous helped us build the perfect menu of appetizers, sides, and of course tacos with all the toppings you could ever want. Our guests loved that they were able to clearly see on the menu and labels what was vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free too. The food lived up to the hype and was tasty and fresh (something important to me)! My sister also claimed this was the best guacamole she had ever had. Ravenous was easy to work with and helpful with answering all our questions over the long time between booking/wedding date. On the wedding date, they worked so seamlessly with the venue staff and our day-of-coordinator my involvement was no more than a hello and thank you. I highly recommend Ravenous for catering your wedding. They book up fast, so if you aren't committed to a certain date it is worth waiting for.

Working with Tim Putnam of Smokeblossom Catering turned out to be a completely and utterly…read morenightmare experience. Last winter (Dec 2017) we signed a contract with Tim to cater our wedding in the Methow (late summer 2018). We then promptly sent him a deposit check for $1,500. After not hearing anything for a week, we discovered that the deposit check had been stolen out of our mailbox at our home in Seattle. After this discovery, we immediately reached out to Tim to both send him a new check, as well as get his help by confirming with our bank that he had never received the stolen check. Tim had absolutely no empathy or understanding of the situation. He immediately backed out from the catering agreement which left us scrambling. In order for us to recover the stolen funds, our bank needed Tim to sign a document stating that he had not cashed the check and hadn't received payment. Tim absolutely refused to do this. He repeatedly accused myself, my fiance, and my sister (who was assisting with planning) of stealing the check ourselves, trying to steal his identity and personal information, and lying to him. Multiple times he hung up on us while telephoning and behaved completely irrational. We worked incredibly hard to make the process smooth for him. We spent hours on the phone with his bank and our bank, as well as the Seattle Police Department, trying to recover the $1,500 funds. We sent Tim written confirmation and documentation of our engagement and impending wedding, but he only threatened us and continued to accuse us of fraud and attempting to steal his personal information. In total, we spent over 50 hours trying to sort out this mess. We were absolutely stunned and heartbroken throughout the whole process, having not only lost a large portion of our wedding budget, but also being treated so poorly during what should have been a happy time. Our initial impression of Tim was positive, which is why we initially signed a contract to do our catering with him. However, as we worked to recover the funds (which we were never able to recover the $1,500 due to Tim's staunch refusal to confirm to the bank that he never received payment), it became extremely clear that we could never, ever recommend Tim and Smokeblossom Catering to anyone. I cannot speak to Tim's culinary abilities, but I would advise anyone interested in Tim Putnam and his catering company to steer clear of this irrational man and his business and his poor and distasteful business and communication skills. Thankfully, we found another fantastic and local catering company to work with, and the food at our wedding was lovely and enjoyed by all.

We were in the river view room and it was cozy with a great deck view of the river. We were able to get settled in pretty quickly and wander by the water; sit and enjoy the scenery, and last but not least see their little rabbits, chickens, and prince the peacock! Ludger was an amazing host and really made us feel welcome -- can I also say he puts some restaurant chefs to shame with his breakfast creations? I found it super thoughtful that they had a check in sheet asking about allergies, dietary restrictions, and even taste preferences. He definitely accommodated to my vegetarian palate while still cooking up some of the best meals I have ever had at an inn, hotel, and possibly even restaurants. Kudos to him. It was super nice to have fresh fruit from the orchard be included the meals and it really added such a great touch to them. Price wise, I would say it is very reasonable for the delightful experience, calm and quiet surroundings, and comfortable stay. I have recommended this spot to every friend I have seen this week and will continue to rave to everyone about how amazing this spot is. Definitely check this place out -- be it for wine tasting, an event, or a stay. It is absolutely charming and will be a place you will remember for years to come.

After going to 2 places that could not fit us in, we decided just to come here to eat as well as drinks. This place was dead but could get us all in. The server rocked it. She made sure we were looked after. Food came out in a few different groups considering the size of our group. All in all it was all good except my fries were overcooked. Still I was impressed by the service and that there was plenty of room for us to all celebrate. Thank you to thre server who never looked frustrated by the amount of drinks we kept her on her toes with constant getting us.

We waited almost an hour to get our food which sucked. Our server would hardly check on us and when she did she would only come by to pick up the table and didn't ask us what she could get for us. My friends got charged $1.50 on top of The cost of their bud light every time they asked for it to be red. They disputed the price and the server threatened to call the cops on them. The server also said "well you've obviously had too many beers because you don't know what you're talking about!" Number one, if she had too many beers ( which she didn't she only had three) it would be the servers fault. And number two she called my friend a bitch. Who says that?! What kind of a place let's this happen?! What a joke. On top of everything she got the bill completely wrong just a really bad experience all together. I go out to eat a lot but will never go back here nor would I recommend this place to anyone.

It was the most epically relaxing way to spend an afternoon in mid August. Tom Potter hooked us up with paddleboards, life preservers, and the best picnic lunch ever.

He picked us up in his truck, which the inside will blow you away... It's outfitted like a limousine inside.
