    We celebrated our anniversary last night at Wild Rye at Brasada Ranch. It was delicious! I had the halibut and it was beautifully presented and perfectly cooked. My husband ordered the $50 hamburger - it was huge and at least 5” high! The wedge salad was unusual and very tasty. We ordered the peanut butter mousse desert to share. So good! Great banjo artist played for us on top of all that!

    The featured cocktails were in tiny glasses. One delivered to another table was much larger than mine. Get a regular martini instead. The brie appetizer was so dumb. They whipped the brie and then formed it into a blob and supposedly browned that - couldn’t tell. And then buried it under herbs and nuts that destroyed the cheese flavor. What exactly is wrong with regular baked brie? We didn’t read the menu carefully enough i guess. The halibut entree was over cooked. Sinful to do that to a fine piece of seafood. Especially at $46. The crab/dumpling small plate had exactly one recognizable piece of Dungeness crab. And the “dumplings”? They were gnocchis. Let’s be honest. Will not go back.

    Fantastic food, great wine, and an incredible view of the Cascade range. What more could we ask for?

    Wild Rye’s staff and food never disappoints. Great seasonal menu and cocktails set in a venue with stunning views and welcoming atmosphere. The Oysters, Carpaccio, and Tomahawk were exquisite!

    We asked to be moved away from a large (loud) party in the back (not conducive to a romantic Valentine Day dinner) but were happy to be seated at the bar. We then enjoyed an amazing dining experience! The food presentation was beautiful and every course was absolutely delectable! Despite a busy evening, the service was exceptional (as always) and we truly feel valued and taken of as guests. Kudos to Chef Karl for executing a delicious special menu and our sincere thanks to Andy, Trenton, and the entire Wild Rye staff for the most enjoyable evening!

    We celebrated our Valentines Day Anniversay with their special menu. Pricey, but we'll worth the experience. Our first experience at Wild Rye, we will definitely be returning. Everything from ambiance, live guitar entertainment, excellent service, delicious 6 course food that was innovative, pretty and very good made this a wonderful, special memory.

    No steak on menu so we got halibut and oysters which were very fishy and seemed like not the best frozen halibut chunks. The lamb was ok but tasted kinda like pork the only good thing was the service was excellent which is why we didn’t complain but won’t be going back pretty disappointed with menu options and price for what you got.
