    Bottle and Bull is a cornerstone of downtown Kirkland dining. Its Hemingway themed vibe, menu, and cocktail offerings are all very well done. The food is fantastic from burgers to risotto and the cocktails are made with great attention to detail. Lastly, I think they have the best ice cream in Kirkland, fresh made onsite.

    Cocktails were excellent, food was good overall and the vibe was awesome. Very loud but it was also really crowded and busy. Unfortunately, our service fell victim to how busy they were. No one came to our table for 15+ minutes so we flagged down another server to help us. The evening continued in the same way. Our server was also one of the bartenders so he had his hands full. I have read great reviews on service there so we will come back and try again.
