The hubby's almost finished with the Yakima job, I'm really going to miss this place! Definitely a…read moremust stop next time I'm in town! Last night we had the most incredible meal and our waitress was the cutest- super friendly and accommodating! It was a full house as usual but very very loud we didn't talk much as it was kind of pointless and would have to yell to even be heard- at that point I was wishing I had made a res for the patio out back lol. We had the tomato & peach salad that was to die for! We ate the entire plate! Then we ordered the black cod which is my favorite fish- so tender and flaky, loved the addition of meaty lions Mane mushrooms and a miso slaw! Hubby had the skirt steak- so tender, perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth! Loads of flavor. The heirloom tomato that came with it was killer as well! Our waitress kept bringing dishes to the table that she thought we would like, as an apology for "the wait" (which we weren't worried about in the least) but were very grateful to receive!The bread roll and green beans, so so good! Thank you so much!

Crafted is an upscale restaurant with a menu that changes but is always locally sourced. Be sure to get your reservation beforehand as this restaurant is not open every day plus it's popular. There is a parking lot that is ample. Upon entering you will notice a clean, friendly and trendy vibe. Oh and the menu is for sharing so your table gets to try a variety. I loved the carrot dish and the cauliflower. They were special eve though I wouldn't ordinarily say that about vegetables. The round bread was soft and the pasta was phenomenal. The Zabuton steak had a nice favorite but if was my least favorite. This dinner was incredibly good and I will be back!

Clean restaurant and pretty standard menu. Here is how our…read moremeal stacked up: Torta: Great, though it definitely needed a good sauce to bring it all together. Tacos: Super flavorful and well cooked, but really craved a vibrant green salsa to elevate them. Mole Enchiladas: Just okay, nothing special compared to the rest of the meal. Sides: The rice was delicious and well seasoned, but the beans fell a bit flat. Service: There was only one waitress handling the entire front of the house. She was super prompt at first, and even when it started filling up, she stayed completely on top of things. Major props to her for working the floor solo so smoothly!

Extremely overrated Mexican restaurant. I was searching for authentic mexican eatery to celebrate…read moreFather's Day and this place had the most and the highest reviews - why?!? The food was generic and basic, small portions, and rather expensive prices for what you get. I could have gotten better food for 2/3 or less of the price from a taco truck. Thoroughly disappointed. I am mexican and I give it 2/5 stars for barely passable. We had carne asada plate, chicken , shrimp cocktails, other assorted items and all were very lackluster. Cocktail was beyond bland.

WaterFire Restaurant & Bar, 4000 Creekside Loop,…read moreYakima, WA98908. First time here on Ryan's recommendation. We had a wonderful celebratory graduation dinner. The food and cocktails were amazing, service excellent. The restaurant was a standalone building on the outskirt of Yakima. It's a bit more upscale with a nice and warm ambiance. Definitely recommended. Will come again if/ when I'm in the area. ~ Cod Fish & Chips ~ Ribeye Steak ~ Filet Mignon ~ Togarashi Seared Hawaiian Ahi Tuna ~ WaterFire French Dip ~ Mac & Cheese ~ Wagyu Cheeseburger ~ Roasted Pineapple Mai Tai ~ Ultimate Lemon Drop ~ Dragon's Breath (this one is not for me, it's way too sweet)

Food was passable, but service was absolutely the worst…read more Waiter (Marcus F) was probably the worst I have had in a while. I ordered two apps and an iced tea. He asked if I wanted bread with my meal. I said "Sure". Well bread is $5. Not a big deal, but would be nice to mention or at least bring a nice warm bread? Neither happened! Bread was hard and cold. Menus still on the table. App one arrived, then app two arrived. Still no iced tea. Then he came around the corner after being absent for 10-15 min; app one was already finished. Then I caught him doing a 180 and then come back with my tea. At this point about 30 min since I sat down, he asked if I was ready to order. Really? I was done, asked for a refill on the tea and a check. He took the glass and came back with same glass refilled. Now maybe I am being picky here, but if you take the glass, then just bring a fresh one. Dont just top of the melted ice with tea. Old lemon wedged between the ice and new one on top. Overall: Place is busy. Food is ok, but they could do better!

We thought about coming back for dinner the following day but after reading some of the reviews, decided to go elsewhere.

One of us would have said slightly better than average casual Chinese food. The other one of us thinks this is some of the best Chinese food in a long time. The service was good. Everyone was friendly and helpful. No disagreements there. The atmosphere - one of us found it at the lower end of casual Asian dining. The other one of us just didn't care. The value. One of us found it very overpriced. The other one didn't care and pointed to how expensive every restaurant is now, while the first one of us wanted to point out that this is priced for a much nicer dining experience (eg, atmosphere, presentation, and even the fairly tasty meal just don't support the pricing). Portions, at least on entrees (we didn't try the appetizers), are pretty good, so that helps. Also, one of us would point out that it's often described as "dim sum," but a handful of pricey appetizers is not what is expected as a "dim sum" experience. By this logic, every restaurant (or at least every Chinese restaurant) could market itself as "dim sum" if it has appetizers, which they all do. That isn't what I expect of dim sum. So, there you have it - we're split. We will return to try the appetizers (aka "dim sum"), but it won't be cheap. It seems very popular and I wish them success, with a few improvements.

Had dinner at Texas Roadhouse in Yakima and overall it was a really solid meal…read more I got the 28 oz bone-in ribeye, which is obviously a huge steak, and it was really good. Mine came out just slightly more done than I ordered, but honestly not enough to bother me much. With a steak that large, especially around the bone, I was kind of expecting some variation in the cook anyway. Most of it was right where I wanted it and the flavor was excellent. My date got the full rack of ribs and those were also really good. We both got baked potatoes, although I went with the baked sweet potato, and everything on the sides was cooked well. We also had a few margaritas. I had a couple of the spicy ones and they were really good, definitely better than I expected from a chain steakhouse. The peanuts were a nice snack too and I ended up taking some home. Our server was excellent. I unfortunately cannot remember his name, but he was a younger guy and did a great job throughout the meal. He was attentive without hovering and everything came out smoothly. Overall, this was exactly what I want from Texas Roadhouse. Big portions, a good steak, solid drinks, and great service. I would definitely come back if I am in Yakima again.

If you want a good dining experience, try and sit in her section. The manager stopped by and welcomed us to the restaurant since some of the folks in our group had never been to a Texas Roadhouse before. It's like Jimmy Mac's in Federal Way but with less flair. Even though the restaurant was pretty busy the food came out in a timely manner. They cook a pretty good sirloin. We shared entrees because I knew from a previous visit that portion sizes are pretty large.

Unlike many restaurants, Second Street Grill steps up to the plate and delivers on its promises. From the moment we were seated, our server Natalie became our most trusted advisor. She answered questions and was super helpful. She was buoyant and just amazing. The wait time was not forever, and the food was hot and tasty. No need to ask for refills, because Natalie kept on top of her duties like a boss. Now. I ordered fish and chips. The expectation was those little diamond shaped fish pucks with some shoestring fries. Nope. It came straight through a wormhole from an Irish pub. I would swear to it.

Yakima Steak Company has a lot going for it, but my recent visit was a bit of a mixed bag…read more The starters were easily the highlight of the night. The fried oysters were delicious, and the clams were cooked perfectly--plus, the garlic bread served alongside them was absolute perfection for dipping. Unfortunately, the main course fell short. For a steakhouse price point, I expected the steak to be the absolute centerpiece of the meal. Instead, my steak came out slightly overcooked past medium, and the accompanying risotto was mushy rather than creamy and tender. The accompanying fries were also not crispy but floppy. Service was friendly and the ambiance is good. Great decor for dates or special occasions. While the starters and flavor potential are definitely there, the execution on the main course just didn't justify the price tag. Worth dropping in for drinks and appetizers, but hopefully, the kitchen dials in the steaks next time.

Let me start by saying that the Caesar was probably the best Caesar I have ever had. I live a few hours away and think about that salad often. My wife loved the sandwich and soup, as well. Sadly we were too full to eat any dessert but they have a rotating dessert list and while we were there the strawberry cake looked insanely good. So good that every single table around us ended up getting at least one slice. I was jealous... What makes this place extra special (aside from the incredible food), are all the little touches that they add to their plates. Little heart-shaped ice cubes with blueberries, heart-shaped butter, and a full leaf of lettuce below the salad. I know it might not sound like much but it really shows the attention to detail. And, to top it off, the staff were simply amazing. They were attentive, friendly and really nice to chat with. This will be a main stop anytime we are in town.
