This is one of the places I always stop when I'm in Leavenworth! From their comforting soups in the winter to the fresh salads in the summer, everything is so high quality and fresh and I always feel so energized and full when I leave. The food is definitely healthy, but still really flavorful and fresh so you don't feel like you are missing out. I crave their amazing food all the time and love when I get to visit! We went on a nice day and sat outside. This is one of the best views in the town with an awesome lookout at the mountains and river. The staff is friendly and thoughtful and always in a great mood. I got the peanut cod bowl last time I went and it was so good! Really fresh and flavorful with an incredible sauce. Paired with local jun, it was a perfect lunch!

We went on a Sunday afternoon with a reservation and were seated quickly. Our servers were happy to accommodate a request for outdoor seating when we asked and gave great recommendations! Food came out very fast too. Moonlight bowl was delicious. Noodles were cooked perfectly and had a nice wheaty chew to them. Miso soup was hearty and flavorful with plenty of briny sea flavor from the fish stock and the kelp. Kale and shiitakes were fresh. Watermelon radish was a nice addition. Wonderful view from the outside seating. Super healthy and fresh- give them a shot!

My coworker and I were working in the Wenatchee area for a project last Fall. And since Leavenworth was just 30 minutes away, we figured we'd make a weekly trek to check it out! Yodelin was not on my radar, but I saw some photos of the view from the back patio, and before the days started getting shorter, we figured we should take advantage of this opportunity. So we showed up, just before the sun started setting over the mountains, and it was still kind of warm. I ordered the Moonlight Artisial Bone Borth soup: Miso Wild Salmon Bone Broth, Udon Noddles, Organic Vashon Island Tofu, Shitake Mushrooms, Organic Kale, Pacific Seaweed & Radish. I added the 5oz Lummi Island Wild Salmon and a soft boiled egg - highly recommended! And I never looked back!!! I am OBSESSED with this dish, I literally order it every single time I visited. It is soooo good! Definitely add Yodelin to your bookmarks when visiting Leavenworth!

We decided to check this place out based off of the good reviews on Yelp. We now understand the hype! This place is beautifully decorated with a PNW vibe. We love the concept and little details throughout.. including the bathrooms. Not only was this place aesthetically pleasing.. food was amazing and healthy. We ordered the salmon bowl and plate of small baked potatoes w/dipping sauces. Salmon was a decent size and perfectly grilled. The salad and rice all came together with the amazing vinaigrette. It was soo good. The potatoes were our favorite! Perfectly baked and fun dipping in the sauces. Definitely a guilt free dish vs deep fried fries. Servers were so friendly and attentive. An easy 5-Star restaurant.. highly recommend!

This restaurant is very cool! The views on the patio are beautiful and the food was very delicious. I had the Hollywood, it was hard to pick one thing! Excited to test out more things next time! Service was good too.

Good, but expensive. I have mixed feelings about Yodelin; however, it ultimately falls on the more positive side of things than the negative. The food is very fresh, the bowls have a great mixtures of flavors, textures, and ingredients that make for both a healthy and flavorful bowl of food. It's a nice alternative to a lot of the other food in the area and it is both filling, yet something that doesn't "weigh you down." While I believe Yodelin uses very fresh, like organic (?) ingredients, it's rather expensive for what it is. I tend to eat a lot of this food at home, and while it is rather pricey, $30 feels like a lot for a bowl of rice, mixed vegetables and protein. All that to say, I'd probably do it again if I wanted a break from the normal Leavenworth fare. I had the Aloha Bowl and others tried the Wild Salmon and Cloud Nine bowls. I tried each and the flavors were relatively similar, with the exception of the proteins, which was good and bad/so-so (?). I think I could've used a bit more flavor across all the bowls to make them slightly more distinct from one another and to have a bit more "pop." All of that is nitpicking and critical. The food is good. I just wish it was a tad less expensive for what it is.

Super restaurant with lovely view of the river & mountains. The bhan mi sandwich was one of the best I've ever had (I added bacon & avocado). Friendly service and chill vibe. All around excellent place!

I've lost count at the number of times I've been here -- but that's because it's one of a handful of noteworthy restaurants in Leavenworth and 100 percent worth returning to, time and again. This latest meal was with a big group (eight people) for a late lunch Sunday. We were promptly seated toward the back of the room and quickly greeted by a friendly server, who took our order for beverages and apps. Every time I visit, we order the same small plates (they're just so good!): the broccoli which comes charred in a garlic soy sauce (the tiny bits at the bottom of the bowl are my fave) and the potatoes, which have a choice of dipping sauces (we love truffle garlic and the curry). At .35 cents each, the dipping sauces are a steal (what can you buy for that price these days -- practically nothing!) The real standout here is the soup (it's a broth company, after all). I finally tried the Hollywood bowl, which comes with udon noodles, peanuts, kale and Thai basil in a vegan carrot ginger curry broth. I added tofu for some additional protein on this brisk January day. I've also had the Kiwanda rice bowl, which, as a vegetarian, I prefer just slightly, tho both dishes are excellent. Added bonus: the restaurant is very earth-conscious: all items are compostable, food is sustainably sourced, etc. (There's a note about this on the menu that I wish I snapped a photo of!) Looking forward to summer when we can return to sunny days on the patio and epic views of the mountains! Until then, warm bowls of goodness will have to do.

10/10. Absolutely the best food in Leavenworth, and I cannot believe we were able to walk in. I think that because the entrance is down the stairs on the side of a building, people don't know it's there? And I'm fine with that so I can always come. Staff is friendly and makes great recommendations. Cocktails were good - though their ranch water is not a ranch water! It's just club soda with lime and tequila. A traditional ranch water is topochico specifically, with tequila and lime. Every single broth bowl we got was incredible. We all kept trying each others and couldn't decide which one we liked the most. And in the freezing Leavenworth weather, what's better than a bowl of bone broth and noodles??! Our group of 5 walked in and was sat at a zen garden bar top. Super fun!

I was looking forward to a hot soup on a cold day. From reviews on Yelp, yodelin sounded perfect! And it almost met the expectations. I enjoyed the Yodelin broth but it had more acidity than I like. It was rich and comforting. Egg was perfectly soft boiled. The BLT was huge, lots of bacon but hard to eat. Sandwich and the chips were dry and thick. My daughter didn't enjoy it. The kids' broth was also more acidic for some reason. But overall not bad. Kids enjoyed their homemade lime lemonade. It packs a punch! The server was nice, food came out pretty fast and I liked the atmosphere.

We visited Leavenworth on Christmas weekend and Yodelin was one of the few places accepting reservations. Something about soup on a snowy day just sounded amazing! We were seated quickly and immediately offered refreshments. I love the open yet cozy vibe of this location! We ordered two salads and three soups. Each soup is a flavor base that you can add a protein to. The salmon with egg in salmon broth was by far my favorite! The salads are "slaw" style, fresh ingredients, and delicious. If you're craving soup and looking for cozy spot then try Yodelin!

I am not a vegetarian at all, but as a foodie, I actually love vegetarian restaurants. Yodelin is no exception. A lot of cooking centers around using whatever meat as a crutch, sucking away creativity and limiting use of ingredients. Taking away that crutch forces you to invent better food. Ooohh, oh god, I can feel it coming. This 'bout to be a super long review with so many of my food pet peeves. *slow inhale/exhale* *shuffles note cards* Let me tell you a story. My dad and stepmom are professionals at finding good Chinese restaurants. If I'm visiting and we're going to hot pot, I just know it's gonna be one of the most bangin' spicy hot pot stops in the area. However, if we're in a situation where we want to find the best western food, they are at a loss. Therefore, it was up to meeeee to find something good in Leavenworth. "Something good" is a very vague standard, so if I had to identify something more specific: 1) Needs to be healthy. Food should actually have a wide assortment of vegetables. 2) Food needs to have more flavor. We can eat extremely spicy food and prefer a lot of seasoning and umami. Often, European restaurants that have a decent rating will still seem bland to us. Based on these criteria, I searched the Internet in this area and found a few top candidates. This is first up. I am happy to report that while it wasn't perfect, they were actually impressed. Our favorite was probably the salmon rice bowl. The salmon is saucy and soft, but not too soft, perfectly cooked. Despite the plethora of veggies, there's virtually no lettuce anywhere. Instead you've got arugula(?), kale mix, radish, red cabbage, cucumber, avocado, cilantro, etc., so much cilantro. God I love cilantro. I judge rice bowls by their overall harmony also, like a Japanese donburi. Even then, I feel like this passes. The eggs add extra necessary umami. The cucumbers add extra necessary moisture. Everything here fits nicely. In comparison, we felt like the noodle soups fell a tad short. The overall quality was excellent and the flavor of the broth was pointed in a good direction, but the strength of the umami was lacking. I get it though; they have to cook for their customer base. There's no way they could make their curry Yodelin broth as spicy as I'd want it and not have half of their customers running towards the restroom. Similarly, the chicken broth has a stronger umami than your average American chicken noodle soup, but.....we still found it to be weak. The chicken leg and cod we added were excellent though. The chicken was soft, juicy, and flavorful. The udon noodles themselves were fine. I love the basil in the banh mi. But.....I'd kind of rather just have a banh mi at a legit Vietnamese place with sliced meat and jalapeños. This bacon was good, but I don't feel like it fits this sandwich very well. The waiter recommended the broccoli appetizer, and we did not order that because it obviously sucks. Who wants to eat broccoli by itself? That's lame. I asked for the garlic bread to be served with the other food because eating bread by itself before eating everything else is also lame. Bread should be eaten with soup, pasta, etc. I dipped my garlic bread into the broth because that is objectively a better way to eat it. From the way it's presented, I feel like the restaurant half expects me to chomp through the bread by itself. This might sound psychotic, but I find that annoying. Aside from that, I also found it too hard and thin as well as being an unwieldy shape for garlic bread. I like having larger, softer garlic bread cut into smaller segments and don't really approve of this. Y'all are lucky I'm not subtracting a star for this sad bread. With all my complaints, it might seem strange that I'm still giving this five stars. But we did like it a lot. And....maybe I am being too nice again. But it's too late, I've already decided. Five stars.

Found this place on yelp. Glad I did. I was undecided between the sweet potato banh mi and bone broth soup. I'm glad my friend decided to order one of the soups and I ordered the sweet potato banh mi. We also ordered kids cheese plate. The sweet potato banh mi was good, but I wouldn't order it again. It reminded me of a salad on top of the best French bread. I subbed the chips for salad and regretted it as soon as I saw my dish because it was like I was eating two salads. It is a hardy plate. You definitely will be full when done. The sweet potato had great flavor. The yodelin soup was the superstar at the table. My friend did add salmon to it. They put a big chunk in there. It is a perfect meal for a cold day. It was tasty and have plenty of noodles and toppings. The portion is large. You can easily share it. The kids cheese plate with six dollars. I don't think it was worth the six dollars. Skip it and get something hardier. It was a cold day, I ordered their mulled wine. The mulled wine was very good. It kept me warm. For those not from Leavenworth, the restaurant is below ground level. Take the stairs down and you'll see the entrance on the left-hand side.

This was a nice break from the German-themed food understandably found all over town. Our meal was pricey, but very tasty and nicely prepared. The bone broth soup is pretty unique. The restaurant menu has a healthy vibe overall. The personnel, including our server, were friendly and efficient.

Healthier eats | Service was alright This is a popular spot and I can see why. It's one of the very few restaurants that doesn't serve what the rest of Leavenworth is serving (i.e. brats and schnitzel). If you're looking for something healthier or have food allergies, try this place out. I'm knocking a star off of my review because of service. We were a medium-sized group of 6 looking to eat dinner right before the live band started playing. The waiter told us he could sit us down at an outdoor table in the back if we could finish before the live band started playing, which was at 5, I think. He said there was a group coming at 5, that's why. We looked around and there were a couple of reserved tables, but there were also many tables open. We felt rushed the whole time we were dining there, AND the waiter was slow to take our order and give us our tab. Another star is knocked off because some of their bone broth soups were okay. A lot of folks are raving about their broth and to be honest, my husband was unimpressed with their Moonlight soup. He said it wasn't flavorful, it was bland. Moonlight is dairy-free. I ordered the Hollywood and thought it was good. Hollywood is gluten-free and vegan. The ingredients on the menu seem really appetizing and healthy, but I do think they could do better with their broths. They weren't salty, they just weren't anything to rave about. I've had better elsewhere. So, the prices probably reflect this destination town and the ingredients used. Parking is tough to find in all of Leavenworth. Interior is nice and has a pub feel to it. Would I come here again? Sure because it caters to my food allergies.

We have been meaning to stop in here the past couple of years and just never get around to it. I originally thought it was a soup place, and they do make homemade broth, but they actually have a lot of nice lunch items. I enjoyed the large windows with natural lighting in the bar area and the beautiful plants in the windowsill. Our server was very attentive and helpful. We each decided to go with a rice bowl, and each tried one of the two chicken versions. The menu was labeled for gluten-free, and the server took extra precautions with letting the kitchen know I was celiac. The bowls came out in these huge silver mixing bowls, which is a whimsical presentation I enjoyed. It was plumb full of fresh veggies and herbs and a deliciously spiced chicken haunch. We had no trouble finishing our giant mixing bowls. They were just so good and fresh. The gf brownie I got for dessert was quite decadent as well. We definitely enjoyed our visit and will have to sample their other offerings done time.

Came here as we needed a bit of a different meal than the brats and fries from the plethora of pubs in the area. Just on the outskirts of the main plaza, Yodelin is nothing to scoff at. Offering both indoor and outdoor seating, yes the outdoor patio is dog-friendly, the place was cute and had a nice ambiance about it. Wanting something a bit soupy and warm, my partner and I opted for the house made bone broth soup. We ended up with the Yodelin and Moonlight as it is. We shared an order of clams, which is why we didn't get any proteins or add-ons for the soup, our else I would recommend/consider it! The clams were a huge portions and also huge in size! More than plenty to share if in a group. The clams were served in a creamy and buttery sauce that made each one delicious. Highly recommend if you're into clams! My partner got the Yodelin which had a little kick to it. The taste of the curry halibut bone broth was delicious and definitely understand why it was the namesake of the restaurant. I got the Moonlight, which had a huge resemblance to a Japanese udon soup. The udon was cooked well and had a good spring to them and the kale and seaweed added a good balance to the broth. Also got the hibiscus Palmer, as it was recommended by our waitress and it was an excellent choice! Good light and refreshing drink that would be perfect for a summer day. I enjoyed Yodelin and would come back next visit to Leavenworth. Would recommend if looking for something that is a bit different than the norm for the area.

Yodelin is one of the best places you can eat in Leavenworth. I love this place to much, I've been there for 2/3 meals of my day. WHY? The food is delicious and provides so much nutritional value to your body. If every restaurant had the same values lol as this place, everyone would be so much healthier. My go to is the bone broths or the Bahn Mi... the Bahn Mi is my current favorite dish. Sometimes I'll get the Bahn Mi and ask for a side of curry bone broth and everything is oh so right in the world! Drinks are fantastic too. The quality fresh ingredients really elevates flavor in every bite. The food is perfection, drinks are amazing and the location is beautiful. Top that off with good service, all I can say is come here and have it be another highlight to your day!

Christmas at Leavenworth, WA. A very picturesque town. Pacific Northwest cuisine. This restaurant stands out amongst all the German/ Bavarian inspired restaurants in this town. Their specialty is artisanal fish bone broth. Long waiting line the night we tried to dine here. We ended up ordering to go being a party of eight and very slim chance of getting a table. I forgot the server's name but he was very helpful and accommodating despite the hectic and business of the restaurant. Even with the speciality, they still cater to kids' palate. We ordered cheeseburgers for the 3 kids and the rest are: Wild salmon rice bowl, Kale Caesar salad, Hama hama manila clams - sooo good and flavorful! - The Yodelin soup - udon noodles with yellow curry- delicious! We also got side orders of proteins which were nothing to write about but still filled up our bellies. Will definitely seek out this place next time we get a chance. The restaurant seemed very cozy and good for groups. It's a shame we didnt get to experience dining in.

We went here for lunch while visiting Leavenworth. We were looking something that was nutritious, kid friendly, and offered seafood. The restaurant is located at the far end of the pedestrian mall, but worth the walk. I had the cod sandwich and it was the freshest, best cod sammy I ever ate. it was broiled to perfection so the cod was moist and tender. The garlic aioli was a perfect accompaniment. The Cole slaw was vinegar based which is what I like, so I was happy. The homemade chips could have used a bit more salt but they were still good. The wife had a bone broth soup and loved it. It was flavorful but the udon noodles were filling. The kid had a rice bowl and loved it! Miracles do happen. The ambiance is casual and not pretentious. Our server was friendly and helpful. We are very happy with our choice and throughly enjoyed our meal.

If you need a break from all the brats, schnitzels and sauerkraut while in Washington's little Bavaria, then Yodelin should not be missed. It's a great restaurant for seafood, soups, noodz and more. We visited Yodelin for our last group dinner to end our Leavenworth weekend since we had just about enough German food for the duration of our trip, and it was a solid spot. For a group of nine of us, we were fortunately able to get a large table on a Sunday night inside. However, outdoor seating is more popular and will be more difficult to get a space for a large group. Not sure if they take reservations, but worth looking into if you're coming with a gang. The menu at Yodelin had a good amount of food to choose from, with the seafood broth being the specialty here. With that said, there were soups, in addition to rice bowls, seafood entrees and other items. You can also take their famous seafood broth home as they sell this ready for takeout. I ordered the Yodelin soup, which was a halibut bone broth with coconut yellow curry, noodles, mushrooms, roasted red pepper, cilantro and kale. As I had hoped, I really liked the broth itself and could easily have this on its own as it was very flavorful. Everything else with the soup was a great complement to enjoy the meal. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Come here for the seafood soups and hang around over cocktails in a fun setting, especially for groups. Plus, knowing that this establishment does everything it can to be sustainable and environmentally-conscious is another reason to check out this spot. They don't use plastics, fossil fuel with its all electric kitchen and no propane. I recommend checking out Yodelin for something different in Leavenworth.

New experience with fish bone broth, tasty, healthy and great portion size. Restaurant doesn't have big space it may accommodate 150 people but service people acknowledge the crowd gives us updates on it. Try to hit the place during dusk or during cold days, it will never go wrong.

Truly incredible little spot! As someone who takes eating good food quite seriously, I was astounded at the freshness and quality of the ingredients top to bottom on this menu. l I had the Yodelin bowl + Hama Hama Clams (added on) - WOW. The flavor made me want to cry from joy and there must have been 40 clams in there.... Heaven. My husband and I sat in the sunshine on the patio on a warm winter day and they were so accommodating- letting us sit out there with our pup even though technically the patio wasn't open. We also appreciate their efforts towards sustainability (listed on their menu)- this speaks volumes to me about the character of this place and the intentions that have gone in to creating it. Can't wait to come back and will be ordering their frozen broths online in the meantime!!!

If you're celiac, they have a special button that they press to make sure you don't get cross contamination through their kitchen. This was THE most amazing experience I've had going out to eat at a restaurant with fear of cross contamination. They also mentioned they could make anything on the menu gluten free as they also offer a gluten free substitute for their noodle dishes. They mentioned their soup of the day as if they were quite proud of it, so we took them up on that and it didn't disappoint. It was The Seaside Stinger which was creamy stinging nettle soup and it was delicious! We also got the salmon bowl and the potatoes with garlic truffle sauce and yellow curry sauces. They WERE SO GOOD! Everything was fantastic and delicious and the service itself was so great. I really appreciate my experience with the employees as they were super friendly and answered all questions in depth and with passion. You can really tell when a place is great when their attitude toward their food is this prideful! I know I've only been there once, but this might just become my favorite restaurant that is celiac safe! I will have to try everything on the menu. Bonus points: - The view was gorgeous. I'm from California visiting Washington for my birthday and this was so different from where I grew up around. It's so pretty here! - Sustainable! They really even list on their menu their sustainability practices which made me feel really good about eating there!

Our group of 10 came here as an afterthought because the original place was full and we didn't plan ahead. Boy, was that providential! Not only did we get a table outside with a gorgeous view, but the service was quick and friendly. Some things to consider: - they will only split a check 4 ways - the portions are HUGE ... the rice bowls and soup bowls are the size of my head and very filling - they take reservations

Nice little placed nestled off the street, have to walk down some stairs to get to this quaint place. We walked bye a few time then decided at street level to look at the menu. What's this? Wingy Wednesday!? Count me in. I'm always down for special items that come on just a single day of the week! Mad Hatter Chicken Wings! Pineapple jalapeño glazed, Pumpkin & Sunflower seeds, Cilantro & Zesty Ranch. We also Ordered the Bratwurst. Daughter had the fresh homemade Tomato soup. Our meal was served fast, perfect temp and service was great! The wings where amazing! So try for a Wednesday' you won't regret it!

I almost don't want to review this place because it'll become so popular that we can't get in! We've been enjoying their broth for some time but got to experience their tranquil restaurant this past weekend. It lived up to all the hype after a great hike nearby. Dog friendly which was an added bonus!

With the hustle and bustle of Leavenworth at the holidays, it was really nice to be able to get a reservation. The service was mediocre, but it was the Friday of Thanksgiving weekend and maybe the staff was getting used to the rush. Our food was good. We got the Moonlight and the Hollywood with tofu. The moonlight was light and broth was good - not too fishy. The Hollywood was like a Thai fusion with the coconut curry broth. While their model of local sourced PNW cuisine is appreciated, the price point was a bit steep considering that you had to add protein which heavily increased the cost of the dishes.

I was pretty worried about what my vegetarian options would be in Leavenworth, land of bratwurst. But turns out my worries were unfounded, thanks to Yodelin. I literally went there every day of my long weekend and would have gone twice a day if I had my druthers! Fresh, healthy options with lots of vegetarian choices. I loved the house salad (I am always on the hunt for a big salad) and the chia seed pudding was such a refreshing treat on a hot day. The space is clean with lots of seating, and there is a lovely outdoor space with a beautiful view of the mountains. Staff was all very friendly. My only complaints: whoa, that bathroom wait!!! There's only two bathrooms for the whole place and customers really take their time. Pretty much every time I was there I waited like 10 minutes for the bathroom! And lastly, although they have multiple seating options, I gotta look out for my fellow fat people and tell you that the dreaded cafe chair is among them (these are the worst! Stop using these, restaurants!!). Anyway, even if you are in town for German style food, Yodelin provides a nice contrast to some of the other spots in Leavenworth (and they do have a really good burger and chips if you are determined to live it up).

This was place was okay. Really nice ambiance, especially the patio views, but food wasn't remarkable. I had the Yodelin and added tofu and egg and my spouse had the rooster comb and added chicken and egg. I enjoyed my broth, especially the veggies, but the noodles in it weren't soft and chewy, more dense and harder, and not what I expect from udon noodles. The chicken soup was also good but way overpriced. The soup itself would have just been the noodles, and broth with celery/onions/carrot, and adding the chicken was an additional twelve dollars. When I think of other soup noodles I've had for around $25, this didn't measure up at all. We also had the garlic bread, which was okay, but just two slices of bread with garlic spread and the pretzel. The pretzel was the worst one we had all weekend, really hard and dry. The service was friendly though we only got checked on once so didn't get a chance to order a second round of drinks. Not a big deal. Overall glad to have tried it but probably wouldn't go back.

Yodelin is a very nice option for fresh fare and something that's not German. We ordered a couple soups and a kid's burger and the food was high quality with great flavor. It's a little pricy but so is everything in Leavenworth. Probably perfect for lunch :)

Good food with a great view. Dishes were tasty and fairly creative. One concern is that their bar tending needs an upgrade. Their version of an old fashioned was comically bad

Great ambiance on the patio! This was such a delightful place to eat at! Fresh food, served quickly and a very pleasant and friendly waiter. Hubby had the yodelin and added the cod. I ordered the Kiwanda and it was a delicious and satisfying vegetarian meal. I loved the slightly spicy dressing. I also ordered a Gin spritzer with a bit of lavender, it was very refreshing. Would we eat here again?? In a heartbeat.

Amazing hidden place in my opinion. We were really craving fresh PNW food and this hit the spot! We ordered a wild salmon rice bowl and the cod bone broth and it was huge. Highly recommend you make a reservation as it gets really busy. We were lucky to walk in and get a table but we did get there at 5pm. It's kid friendly and they offered my son some paper and crayons when we sat down and there was a kids menu. Luckily my son was happy to share a meal with me and ate the wild salmon and rice. The decor and vibe is a bit more upper market and had a nice bar area too. We will definitely come back here when we make our yearly visit to Leavenworth.

PHENOMENAL! Came here for dinner and was craving something warm and homey with the cold weather and Yodeling did not disappoint. This was the best dinner I think I've ever had out to a restaurant. Not only was the Yodelin bowl and broccoli packed with flavors but everything was so fresh, and they use no harmful seed oils! This is truly a gem in the heart of Leavenworth and a must if you're in town!

Unfortunately the review is based on my interaction with staff (or lack thereof). We walked up for a table, understanding there would probably be a wait. We went to the host stand and waited. Two staff walked up, discussed a guest table who was celebrating an anniversary, contemplated where to move them, looked over the floor plan and listed available tables and completely ignored the 5-10 of us waiting. Waiting for a "good evening, be right with you" or a, "hey there, just one minute" Hell, even a glance or a nod would do. No, instead we waited almost 10'min with staff going in and out without even acknowledging our existence. Feeling like we were a nuisance, we left. Sorry to bother you by trying to have dinner.

Cute outdoor seating over looking the mountain. Clams are delicious. Order the garlic bread to dip into the clam sauce. We usually come here because it's dog friendly and food taste pretty good. But I didn't care for the coconut mojito. Tasted really weird. But you can't go wrong with a stein.

I don't usually take photos of my food when dining with a large group of friends, hence no personal photos of the pretty, healthful and yummy food at Yodelin. The house made broths and fresh seafood are worthy of an urban restaurant, which makes it especially nice to find in a tourist destination like Leavenworth. The most popular dish at my table was the salmon rice bowl, followed by the vegan/gf coconut curry broth with rice noodles and veggies. I had the latter, with the addition of Hama Hama clams, which was a very generous portion. All of the food was cooked perfectly, from seafood to vegetables, which retain their color, snap and flavor. Alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages were creative and delicious as well. I enjoyed the half hibiscus ice tea and lemonade combo. Service was friendly and just the right amount of attention. We reserved in advance, which is definitely recommended, especially if you want to score outdoor seating with a great view of the mountains.

Food - fresh tasting. Colorful and well presented - our favorite is the salmon bowl - soup was pretty good but for $13, was hoping there would be some kind of protein. Service - excellent and friendly. Super nice staff Ambiance - decor is simple, green, easy going and relaxed Lots of light and felt opened. Which is great. Love all the green plants Price - not a steal or a deal but seems worth it for the ingredients in the salmon bowl Bathroom - unfortunately, looks like no one cleaned it for a bit. I judge how clean the restaurant is by the bathroom management and unfortunately was a bit worried how clean the food would be or how clean the kitchen is if no one bothered to keep the bathroom cleans Would come back for the salmon bowl. They also sell bone both to go. Likely will grab a container next visit.

This is my go to while Visiting Leavenworth,WA We really enjoy the beautiful Fall colors, The Ambiance of the Yodelin is a match for our lifestyle. Service is the best Love Love Love every item on there menu My favorites: Any of the Bone broth, We always take some broth home to use in our dishes for Snizzel. BLT is one of the best in my book, because of the smash factor in the bread, try it you will understand. One more thing they remember us. Bone Broth Bowls

I can't believe I had missed this place for years. So friggin good. The fish sandwich is easily the best I've ever had, nothing else even comes close. The fish is perfectly cooked, so well seasoned and the sauce and salad just makes the sandwich to die for. The sweet potato Banh mi sounded like a gimmick but I'm so glad we tried it. It was phenomenal. I did not expect it to be so good. Highly recommended. The Yodelin noodle soup was very flavorful but a tad one dimensional. A little chili oil would have gone a long way. Massive portioned of outstanding food, great ambiance, loads of culinary books lining the wall, very kind and friendly service, pets allowed outside, no long lines; this place is an absolute winner. MUST TRY! P.s. They serve a lot of chips and coleslaw with the sandwiches, both of which are outstanding. Don't sleep on those.

Our friends have been coming here for a while and insisted we try it when we came to visit. Although it's on the pricier side (which most things in this town are) you definitely get what you pay for. The food is super fresh, you won't find a deep fryer around. The service was quick and friendly even for a busy Sunday afternoon. Two of us got the bowls and they are both super good and large portions. There is definitely enough to take for a meal later. One other person got the yodelin soup with clams and that was super tasty and also a big portion. I did the clams - which for the price you'd think would come with bread but I also got bread on the side to dip. The broth was super good but the clams themselves were tiny. I'll try something else next time I come in.

Cute concept for a restaurant! They have a zen dinner table inside and a very happening cozy backyard with just enough tables to make you feel comfortable. The view is beautiful! Dog friendly. They even gave us a water bowl for the pup! Super friendly staff. Unfortunately we weren't into the dishes we purchased. Had a unique Thai vinaigrette salad with chicken which was the best dish out of what we ordered. The soft pretzel was really dry and the mustard was spicy. The hamburger was really dry and tasteless. The kale cedar salad was tasteless and had no flare.

Nice outdoor seating with beautiful view of the mountains and lakes. I was craving for a bowl of noodle soup with seafood broths. Came here to enjoy a healthy noodle soup made with fish broth and yellow curry. Love their grilled potatoes with garlic truffles (must order). Friendly customer service with smiles. Strongly recommend.

Amazing ambiance and views from their outdoor seating area. Our server was great and friendly. I had the manila clams with garlic bread and enjoyed them very much. I got the ginger beer and found it too strong for my taste.

Get the broccoli. Their namesake, Yodelin, was sour and lacked depth. Ordered cod to add to the broth, and it was tough and over cooked. I told the waiter and he said, "Really?" and after some awkward back and forth of me asking if I should put it to the side, and him hemming and hawing, he walked away and then came back to see if I wanted a new one. I'm surprised he didn't immediately come to that conclusion (like every other waiter at every other restaurant) but was glad he came back around. Second piece was definitely better but for an establishment that prides itself on fish, I had much higher expectations. Got the special--halibut collar with pineapple jalapeño glaze. Also overcooked but not as badly as the cod. Didn't say anything bc after I told the waiter about the cod, he basically didn't come back to the table to check on us anymore, and he also only spoke to my partner when it came time to pay the bill.
