    Farm to table dishes with a creative (and delicious) twist! Daughter had the PBLT (pork belly bacon lettuce tomato) sandwich with a tomato-apricot chutney and fries. I couldn't decide and got the crispy Cauliflower with shallot bacon arugala and a near-drinkable dressing. I also ordered the crispy polenta with goat cheese shallot and arugala over pesto. I tasted and it was amazing- but had to box it to enjoy later. The cauliflower was more than enough. Our waitress Leslie was lovely too. I'll be back!

    Beet salad
    Elizabeth M.

    LOVE this restaurant! We stopped in after shopping to have lunch and it ended up being our favorite meal of our entire summer vacation in Washington. Love that so much of the food & drink options are locally sourced & seasonal! Everything tasted so fresh and thoughtfully done. We ordered the beet salad, crispy polenta, artichoke lasagna, and the cobbler for dessert. I ordered the local sparkling lavender lemonade (from Spring Creek Lavender)...DELICIOUS & REFRESHING! They probably won't have most of these dishes throughout the year, since have a local and seasonal menu, but if they ever do have these dishes, try them! When we return to Washington, this restaurant will always be on my list to come back to!

    Sausage Linguine
    Smaly K.

    Came here to meet a friend for dinner. She's been here before, and loves it, so I wanted to try the place out. We came in time for happy hour, so we started off with the happy hour mule, margarita, and Bread & Butter. For our dinner, we both got the Sausage Linguine, and she substituted hers with chicken. Everything was delicious. The pasta had great flavor, and I really liked the soften butter and whole pieces of garlic with the Bread & Butter. Service was very friendly.

    9.6.2025 [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a gem. Cozy, welcoming, and clearly run by people who care about good food and good vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everything we tried felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The roasted cauliflower was a standout--perfectly charred, well-seasoned. Honestly, I'd come back just for that dish. Service was warm and attentive without being overbearing!

    GF fish and chips
    Michelle W.

    We were visiting the area and found this restaurant serving a good range of gluten-free options on the menu, including Gluten Free Stout from a local brewery Ghostfish! The GF fish and chips were better than average - crispy coating and moist rock fish. The Heirloom Tomatoes BLT with toasted sourdough was delicious. Instead of lettuce, it has mixed greens which added a layer of flavor along with the juicy tomatoes and the crunchy bacon. We ended our lunch with the Gluten-Free plum cobbler. It was a fantastic dessert - the plum gave the tartness and balanced teh sweetness from the ice cream. The wait staff told us that the plums were grown by the owner's mother! If you were in the area, and if you were looking for gluten free options, definitely check out this place!

    Food and service were both great! The choices were amazing and quality great. They accommodated our large party and our server handled it all perfectly.

    Dossier Wine dinner menu
    Stacy S.

    The Dossier Wine dinner was delicious. Such wonderful pairings. And the service was great - kudos for the quick turn on so many dishes for 50 people. Please put the hazelnut and graham cracker crusted halibut in the regular menu - it was sooo yummy!

    This location is part of Gilman Plaza so there is plenty of free parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You are greeted by hanging baskets and into a very cute space. There is a lot of natural light and openness[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is also an outdoor patio when the weather is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We made reservations as we had a bigger group for lunch. The service was great and friendly. We did get drinks refilled often. Several of us got the burger and I appreciated that there was a gluten free bun option. The fries were okay but not hot when I go my food. I did like the burger but it needed more special sauce. The bread pudding was a little dry but someone in the group really enjoyed it with lots of ice cream.

    Happy hour polenta bites
    Dan H.

    Came for happy hour and glad we did. We liked the polenta bites a lot! The pesto sauce was fresh and bright. Probably our favorite item. The singular turkey wing (and leg!) was quite large actually. The fried pieces were served on a base of hot honey and topped with arugula. The Mac and cheese was a bit rich but was balanced by the other dishes. Those 3 happy hour apps were enough to fill two decently hungry people. Cocktails and glass of wine are about $10. Beers $7. Food came out super fast. Service was excellent. We sat in the bar but we didn't really care for the ambiance. It's a big restaurant and as a result it felt pretty empty inside. WE WILL HOWEVER BE BACK FOR DOG-FRIENDLY BACK PATIO THOUGH!! Tl;dr - Food 4/5, happy hour prices 5/5, service 5/5, ambiance 2.5/5. Overall 4.2/5

    Bread Pudding, Chocolate Bundt Cake & Pear Cranberry Cobbler
    Courtney L.

    A group of us came here for an early dinner one Monday evening and it was the highlight of my week! For some reason, I was always under the impression that this was a small restaurant, but upon entering and after walking past the bar, it opens up and becomes more spacious in the back. Our party of 12 was seated at a large rectangular table and were well taken care of the entire time. Our waiter was quick to gather our drink orders and served them while we reviewed the menu. Note that their menu is subject to change on a whim. It's digital only (via QR code), making it easy for them to publish quick modifications. In the afternoon on the day of, I saw a duck leg listed as an entrée, but by the time it came to order, it had been removed and replaced by their Shepherd's Pie. After ordering, their timing was impeccable, with a few of our table mates receiving their soup and appetizers first followed by all of our main dishes arriving at the same time. The complimentary bread was served right out of the oven, being pillowy inside with a slightly chewy exterior. I'm normally not huge on bread, but it was great, especially with a dab of the whipped butter. I tried one piece of the PORK BELLY appetizer ($22) and could have eaten the whole thing myself. Although small pieces, the pork was perfectly fried and salted, with a note of sweetness from the honey mustard. It came with roasted potatoes and greens, so this could actually be a meal for someone looking for a lighter option. For my entrée, I selected the PORK SHOULDER ($32), which was braised with an apricot sauce, paired with caramelized onions & kale, and served atop mashed potatoes. Despite having more fat than I would personally like, the meat was extremely tender and succulent, making it one of the top pork dishes I can remember. I would just say that the portion of pork was small considering the price. The apricot sauce was well-balanced, the potatoes were super smooth and the caramelized onions tied everything together. Our table split three desserts ($10 each), so everyone could have a bite or two of each. All were served a la mode with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE was moist, rich and not too dense. I couldn't even tell that it was gluten-free. I had one taste of the PEAR, CRANBERRY & FRESH GINGER COBBLER; it had a nice tartness, warm spices and a small zip from the ginger. My favorite was the BREAD PUDDING which tasted like it had a hint of amaretto extract... so good! We had excellent service the entire time. A single waiter handled our group with genuine care and attentiveness. He patiently answered our questions about the menu, was understanding of dietary restrictions and preferences, and so kind overall. I wish I had his name so I could give him a shout-out. All around, I had a terrific experience here. The next time someone asks me for a restaurant recommendation in Issaquah, this spot will be top of mind! 4.75 stars.

    Fried polenta and macaroni & cheese

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great spot in Gilman Village![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside on patio surrounded by beautiful greenery![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waitress, Avery, was friendly and very accommodating! They source everything locally, even the spirits! We had fried polenta and macaroni & cheese for an appetizer. Then tuna melts for lunch. Everything was delicious!

    Basic burger
    Zack R.

    Thought this was going to be a treat, as all the menu items seemed to have some twist to them and the vibe in the restaurant is kinda 'cultured and bespoke but welcoming' if that makes sense... Unfortunately everything turned out poorly, from the food to the service, and none out of the four of us will go back. Three times our waiter said he'd bring us something (water, mustard, napkins) and failed each time where we had to flag down someone else after 10m. He put in the wrong salad for my wife and never put in our bread order. Once we got the right food, it just...wasn't good. The carrot salad flavor was nice but about a quarter of the carrots were extremely fibrous beyond old celery. We got it with shrimp for something like $9 extra and they were the most tiny pitiful shrimp you've seen. It was laughable to the point every time our family sees a little shrimp somewhere we now say 'how much did that cost, $9? The bread looked fancy but the butter was wholly unflavorful (an unsalted unflavored oil). As for the fish and chips, it was more like baked old fish -- heavy fishy taste and minimal breading with a weak fry. Even the burger was overdone and nothing redeeming for the price. The restaurant went out of their way to highlight local dairy, meat, and probably veggies. Still, you gotta have quality food alongside the local benefit, and consistent service above all.

    Formula Brewing is a fantastic brewery and company. Hosted my high school reunion here last month…read moreand Ed, Danny, and team were on top of it! With no minimum amount or venue fee (just 20% auto gratuity), Formula was the easy choice to host a large event - plus they have plenty of parking in the back! The drink choices here are phenomenal- they have a large beer selection but they also serve cocktails, lemonade, slushies, and other non-alc drinks making it a family friendly place. My favorite was the Tieton Huckleberry Cider on tap! They also make their sourdough pizza in-house and have vegan options too. Service is fantastic and all bartenders and staff were super friendly and accommodating. They have lots of indoor and outdoor seating with plenty of tables and benches. Dogs are invited in the beer garden :) Thanks Ed, Danny, and Team for a wonderful and seamless reunion. Will definitely recommend and consider you for the next big event. Overall: 5/5 for drinks and food, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere

We've eaten here dozens of times -- easily -- and have never left disappointed. The carne asada is consistently fantastic, and their more traditional dishes are just as solid. Service is reliably friendly, efficient, and refreshingly genuine -- the kind of staff that actually seems to enjoy being there. The one miss? The margaritas. I've worked my way through every flavor, and unfortunately the base tastes suspiciously like Safeway syrup. For a place that does food this well, the cocktails feel like an afterthought. They do have a beautiful patio that's perfect when the weather cooperates, and if you're a nacho-and-cocktail type (same), I strongly recommend ordering a mojito with fresh fruit. Be sure to ask for muddled fruit slices -- otherwise you'll likely get syrup again. It honestly takes just a few cubes of real fruit to completely elevate the drink, and at these prices, it feels like an obvious upgrade management should consider standard-which is why I docked them one star.

Microwave food we just spent $146 on. It was a fast cook and fast delivery - ordered at 5:05pm and delivered at 5:30pm (we live close and I watched the driver come straight to us). It should have at least been lukewarm, so I'm not sure what happened there. Worst part is, when I called and spoke with the manager on duty to ask about the missing item and mention the cold food, she was defensive and flippant, placing blame on the driver immediately while simultaneously talking down to me (re: the cold food), 'well that happens with delivery. We have no control over the driver'. As if I've never had food delivered. She said to take up the charge for the missing item with Uber Eats - 'That's how it works. There's nothing we can do'. Not even a sincere apology for the undelivered item- Masa's mistake. We have frequented Masa since they opened, with mostly good experiences, but I think we're done. There's just no excuse to be rude and dismissive to your paying customers. A little decorum could have gone a long way. 2 stars for the two out of six items that arrived as expected.
