Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Kirkland

It’s always a great time and great food at Rhein Haus!

Consistently good overall. I come here 3-4 times per year and always have a positive experience.

The food, service and ambience were fine. Being a John Howie restaurant, we weren’t surprised by the high prices. Two cocktails, two starters, two steaks with no sides, and two glasses of wine were almost $300. We were surprised, however, at the 20% service charge on the bill that goes entirely to John Howie. Their explanation was that they pay their staff well and give them benefits. There was a typical place for a tip on the check. Had we added a typical 20% tip, we would have paid over $100 in add-ons plus $35 tax which included tax on the service charge. This certainly put a damper on our enthusiasm for this restaurant. $400+ for the above listed food is certainly not worth it.

I was surprised that on a Friday at lunch time this place wasn’t packed. The three of us each had a savoury pie. They came with a generous sized salad and were all very good.

Service and food excellent as always. The Wedge Salad and Bread pudding both exceeded expectations.
