Cafe Juanita

Italian restaurant · Kirkland

"At $205 (without a wine pairing), dinner at Kirkland’s fine dining mainstay is expensive by any measure. And Cafe Juanita, tucked away on a side street, eschews flash or glamour. But holy cow is this one of the best meals you can have in the whole metro area. The menu changes seasonally but is always full of delights. Chef Holly Smith and her team pay meticulous attention to detail; even the freshly baked mini focaccia is a marvel." - Harry Cheadle
