    Espresso Martini
    Lucinda B.

    Had 2 fun drinks here. An Espresso Martini and a Smoked woodford. Pleasant atmosphere. Drinks were fun but pricey. But a nice place to rest your feet after all the walking in the mall. Bartender was nice and friendly.

    Argentinean Fish Tacos

    Good stuff!! Overpriced in my opinion for sure. The fish and shrimp tacos were both great and flavorful! Maybe not $19 for 2 tacos and a sad salad great, but still good :) This location is in a mall which always feels less formal to me so the prices packed an extra punch. But the mocktail felt worth it!! Got the strawberry guava without simple syrup & it was good, still sweet, so can't imagine what it would be like with the syrup.

    While loafing around the mall in Spokane, we got hungry (of course) and stopped in for a bite. We picked this place because of the ambiance. With most of its seating overlooking the lower levels of the mall, Twigs seemed like a good place to satisfy our craving. We were seated fairly quickly, but our server didn't come around for more than 15 minutes. At some point, one of the wait staff noticed that we had been seated for a while without service. She hopped right on it and placed our orders and served us pretty fast after that. The food was good. The drinks were great! The service was slow, but rectified. And, the setting was classy/trendy. All-in-all, I would try this place again.

    At first, we were left indefinitely waiting at Twigs for a kids' menu because the waiter "got sidetracked." Later, when I wanted to enjoy my wine with an appetizer, they only brought it after I had already received my main course. When my dish arrived, I had to find the waiter and call him to add pepper and Parmesan. The service was very disappointing. My appetizer was burrata with meatballs. They should call it "rookie chef's disaster!" The Burrata looked and tasted like a wooden melted mozzarella, overheated to the point of no return. You have to have a talent mess up such a delicate cheese into something you can't even slice with a steak knife! I also ordered penne in truffle sauce with Portabella, but I could only taste bacon in the cream sauce. The sauce on this dish was identical to my appetizer's, just with added bacon. Seems like they ran out of truffle oil!

    Looks good, but looks can be deceiving.

    While visiting Spokane, my girlfriend and I decided to try Twigs on Valentine's Day, since our first few choices were already reserved. Although the seating gave a nice view the food was not up to taste or value. I ordered the steak med rare but was cooked medium well and had way too much black pepper. Her chicken looked like it sat under a heat lamp well before coming to the table. Neither lived up to any hype. I would not recommend going here.

    I came here with my mom after doing a final fitting for my wedding dress. We were looking for a place with good food and that would also lend to a celebratory feeling. Twigs was the absolutely perfect place. We were seated right away and got a great view of downtown, our server was a little busy but brought us water really fast and took our drink orders. Our visit happened to coincide with Inlander Restaurant Week so we decided to try their special three course menu. Both of us got something different that way we could share. Our server was awesome. She brought us extra side plates without asking to make sharing easier. The first course arrived with the baked focaccia and the blta salad. Those two dishes would have been enough for a very enjoyable meal. The focaccia was warm and soft with a nice little crunch to the bread. The cheeses and the tomatoes on top of it were very flavorful but the red sauce underneath was the stealth star of the show. It complimented the bread and just made the whole dish work wonderfully. The blta salad was fresh and not overly dressed and the bits of bacon and avocado were fantastic. The dressing I was a little worried about before I tasted it but it wasn't overly salty and complimented everything really well. For our mains we got the Pork Belly Risotto and the Ancho-Coffee Sirloin. The pork belly was crispy and the risotto perfectly cooked. The charred brussel sprouts that topped the dish were crispy. The sirloin was perfectly cooked and the asparagus was fresh and crunchy. It came with two amazing crispy polenta cakes that worked really well with the rest of the dish. Both were amazing but in order to try and save room we at about half and boxed the rest for amazing leftovers. Dessert was the Caramel Apple Bread Pudding and the Peanut Butter Mousse Cake. By this time we were both pretty full but of course we had to try both. The bread pudding was warm and a nice creamy texture that the apple pieces lended a great crunch to. The peanut butter mousse was decadent and rich and glorious. We strategically finished the bread pudding and saved most of the peanut butter mousse cake for later. It was hard not to just demolish them both. I really liked the fact that during our dining experience we weren't rushed at all. The courses were spaced out so well that we didn't feel hurried to finish one thing before the next arrived. Our server was fantastic checking back on how everything was and refilling drinks. It was such a great lunch and perfect for our little celebration. I would highly recommend Twigs for anyone looking for a great lunch. I have been here multiple times and the food is always amazing along with their service. It definitely is just a nice place to come and have some good food in good company.

    Amazing food so good!

    Their food is amazing, wonderful wait staff, we did not have to wait long. The restaurant is in an amazing location in the mall. My daughter and I enjoyed our meal!

    Ultimate Lemon Drop
    Danae S.

    I found this place online b/c it had the word martini in the title! This restaurant is located inside the River Park Square mall on the 3rd floor. We sat alongside the outside window, which was cool and different b/c we were at the restaurant, but also in the mall at the same time! It ended up being happy hour, which was a happy surprise. I got the lemon drop martini and my husband got the Orange Clove Old Fashioned . We ordered the cesar salad to share, which was tasty. It had a lot of cheese, which for me wasn't good. Our server was very nice and attentive. It did take a while for him to bring my 2nd martini, I almost thought he forgot. The drinks were good. I would definitely recommend if you are in the area and want a martini (they have a lot of variations!)

    In classic speakeasy fashion, this dark "craft beverage" bar (not JUST whiskey bar...according to…read morethe tender on duty) is tucked neatly behind a bookshelf within a storefront that lacks outer signage. You could easily (and maybe have...) walk past it and not even know. I found my way in and was faced with a dark room and a wonderfully lit display of liquors. They infuse many of their own and offer flights of infused whiskeys. The drink menu has options that feature many different spirits. I chose a gin and citrus drink that was a wonderful blend of bitter and refreshing. I made myself sip it slowly, but it was tasty enough that I could have thrown it back. The bar tender was friendly and attentive, as well as knowledgeable. The room seemed to be recovering from the recent Hoopfest...there were coolers and some things in the back of the space. There were also a LOT of bottles on the counter behind the bar. I don't know if it is always like this, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would definitely go back for the drink and to show it off to friends.

If you love craft cocktails, this place is for you. I got one of their drinks which was a tequila espresso martini. I haven't tried tequila in an espresso martinis before but loved it.

The atmosphere was really enjoyable -- the space has a great vibe, the drinks were well made, and overall it feels like somewhere that could become a favorite spot downtown. The food was decent as well, though not especially memorable. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the positives. From the moment we walked in, we felt more like an inconvenience than welcomed guests. The host greeted us while remaining seated at the bar and simply told us to "sit anywhere," which immediately set an odd tone. When I asked for paper menus, I was told they only use QR codes. Normally that wouldn't be a huge issue, but the menu was around 15 pages long with tiny font, making it frustrating to navigate on a phone. Once our food arrived, we essentially never saw our server again. No check-ins, no refill offers, no asking if we wanted another round of drinks -- nothing. Meanwhile, staff members were gathered at the bar loudly talking among themselves and openly complaining about being there, which was uncomfortable to listen to as customers trying to enjoy a night out. Eventually, we had to walk up to the front bar ourselves just to pay our bill. That was the most disappointing part because the restaurant truly has the foundation to be excellent. The ambiance and drinks are already there, but hospitality matters just as much as the food. A little attentiveness and genuine customer service would have completely changed the experience. We absolutely would have ordered more drinks and likely stayed longer if anyone had checked on us. Hopefully management takes service more seriously, because this place could be great with the right staff culture and attention to guests.
