- SSarahSeattle / Eastern Washington •8 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI was so excited to check out the new Kirkland restaurant from the Nardone family. No one does pasta like them! The restaurant has a cozy but also lively feel to it and of course, the food was amazing! We started with the salumi & burrata and Sicilian clams, both of which were delicious and a good size to share. Picking an entree was a tough decision, but I landed on the wild boar bolognese! And it’s always a pleasure to be serenaded by Tony while you eat! Can’t wait to go back :)More infoRimini RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Italian• Kirkland•4.9
- SSamSeattle / Eastern Washington •7 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoA great dinner at Feast! The mussels and boar dishes were delicious. The cauliflower starter was the best cauliflower dish I’ve had , plus great spinach salad and pom frites. The desserts were soooo good with an ample, but not giant portion, which I appreciate. The prix fixe menu was a good value. Great service from an attentive and authentic staff. There are fancier or cozier spots, and Feast is nice, with great food, and we will definitely be back!More infoFeast - KirklandPrice: Expensive• French• Kirkland•4.7

Discover Kirkland
A quaint, tree-filled downtown leads to a sprawling waterfront, creating the perfect backdrop to Kirkland. Kirkland is one of Eastside Seattle's hidden gems; you can wander past fro-yo creameries and sinfully rich espresso bars on your way to the water or detour for a painting class that doubles as a wine tasting. Looking for something a little more wild? There is a rising food scene geared toward adventurous eaters, with restaurants clamoring to make wild boar tenderloin or a bit of braised rabbit easily available to diners. Round off your meal with some coffee and macaroons for dessert. Plenty of bars are open for nightcaps to complete your evening.
