Kelnero - Review - Seattle - The Infatuation

"If ever you run out of gin and tonic supplies at home, this Edmonds cocktail bar (a converted dentist office) has you covered with takeout Botanist & Tonics. There’s also a heated and covered outdoor patio in both the front and back of the building, and plenty of appetizers. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

Delightful experience at Kelnero and perfect for a cozy, intimate date night! We ordered drinks off the seasonal menu (pumpkin king + children of the corn) and enjoyed every sip of our quality, craft cocktails 🌽🎃 The butternut squash dip was praise-worthy, & the pork belly skewers were an outstanding balance between a crisp outside and soft inside. Not pictured are the potatoes with leek confit which we savored down to the last bite. Loved the halloween decor and exceptional service + knowledge of the staff here. We will be back!

We just ate here for the first time tonight and are now kicking ourselves for waiting so long to visit. It was nearly full on a Friday evening and we got a small table just inside. Bartenders were jumping but got out first round out pretty quickly. The only negative thing I'll say about tonight was the lack of the lemon peel and orange peel in the first round of drinks. When you're charging $15-$16/drink I don't think being busy is a reason to forget that touch on the cocktails. But my wife did say it was the best negroni she's had since we were in France in 2022. So a minor oversight. Food was delicious! We shared the ceviche, tuna and prosciutto wrapped dates. All of it was excellent! The jam with the wrapped figs was amazing! A perfect sweet hit after the salty prosciutto. And the seasoning and liche de tigre with the ceviche was spot on. Tuna was perfectly seared with a seasoned, crusty costing. A little bit of heat was just the right finishing touch. The deck had cleared out a bit after our first round and bites so we moved to the stools outside for round 2 and dessert and to watch the people cruise by. Second round of drinks came with the lemon and orange twists. Woot! We shared the s'mores cheesecake. My wife thought she didn't want any. Ha! She ate about a third of it. Overall staff was super friendly. Kudos to Sara (sp?) for checking in on us and chatting to us about the restaurant. We let her know how good the drinks and food were so she could pass on the compliments. This was not a budget meal by any stretch. Three plates, four drinks and one dessert came to $144 before the tip. But we've already decided we're going back again for our next date night because it was worth every penny!

A cute little craft cocktail bar. I have to admit I was surprised by the level of service and the quality of the food and drinks. This is a very high level establishment for such a quaint area and I really appreciate what they’ve done with the bar. I especially love their candle holders made by Pottery by Eleni.

This place is nice, especially when you want something casual. I ordered the roasted cauliflower and the hibiscus mezcal cocktail. The cocktail was fine, nothing great. However, the service was AMAZING!! I definitely recommend Kelnero. The music is not too loud, so you will be able to talk and enjoy food and drinks. I spend like $60 total for two drinks and one appetizer. There is street parking

Kelnero is a favorite of my friends and I in Edmonds! Extensive craft cocktail menu, nice beer and wine selection and non alcoholic offerings. The food menu changes every so often but each time I’ve dined I’ve been delighted with each plate of food. Unique and inspiring flavors. Outdoor and indoor dining options. Super friendly staff. Kelnero is worth the drive if you’re not in Edmonds. 10/10 experience every time!

Love the whole vibe of this place. Cocktails are beautiful and delicious. Folks who work there are friendly and fun. And they have an outdoor, heated deck for patrons with dogs! It is the perfect place to relax after a long week.

One of the best places in Edmonds for food/drinks. Lots of choices for unique, delicious cocktails. If you have the pleasure to meet the owner Kris, it is worth the time to sit at the bar and listen to his story. On this night, I was able to try a new jello shot for me, too bad it's not for sale. Good spot and don't forget the patio on a Summer evening. The drinks we had tonight, Walnut Manhattan, pistachio punch, cold brew martini and a buffalo trace old fashioned.

Kelnero is interesting, but it hasn't won me over. They have a massive cocktail menu with options in many categories, but I haven't really enjoyed what I have tried so far. They do have some dessert wines, as well, and those are good. In general, their cocktails are higher in price. I do not recommend eating there. The desserts in particular are not good. It's at its best just as a cocktail bar. The interior is ok, it's a bit moody, but not romantic or cozy. It has a casual feel. I really like their front porch area for seating and prefer that over the bar or back room. Some of the seating is a bit awkward if you're wanting to have a conversation with just your date or group when there isn't live music. I think it's more fun with friends than for a date. Overall, I recommend trying it, just get dessert somewhere else.

This is my second time at Kelnero and I was blown away by the service. Our bartender/waiter was very engaged in giving recommendations after asking us what we liked. I could tell they were passionate about the drinks. They even suggested a bartender's choice that was fantastic.

We stopped by Kelnero on a Sunday afternoon for some cocktails and a snack. We were lucky and snagged two of the outward-facing spots, which was perfect for people-watching on a sunny day. The bar has a good selection of liquors by Seattle standards. Their cocktail menu ensures that there is at least one drink for everyone (tequila, gin, whiskey, etc). My boyfriend liked his drinks, but was not mind blown. The hot wings aren't actually that spicy . Our server didn't check in us often, but when he finally did he offered us extra hot sauce. Overall, the drinks are above average and I enjoyed my time here. I would recommend this place for group gatherings!

The cocktail scene in Edmonds is rivaling anything that is happening in Seattle. The libations offered here are creative and expertly crafted. Service is on point and the small plates are excellent as well. The intimate atmosphere is nonetheless welcoming and the staff don't hover over you or forgets that you're there. This place is popular, so come early or be prepared for a wait. Definitely recommend.

Ambience: Cozy bar with a variety of seating. This place has seating within the rooms (Inside), on the patio, and near bar. Menu - The vast menu that features several categories makes selecting much simpler. We made the following attempt: Lady Churchill - HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. Strong and Boozy Passion In Time of Corona: It was a pleasant Envy in Green: It was alright, but I think the first two are better. Black Rose: Refreshingly sweet Lady in the Pink: I wouldn't advise it The service was satisfactory. The staff was really patient as we were six-person party and checked in with us a few times.

We really liked Kelnero, the drinks were great. A spicy margarita will get me every time! We didn't get food, but my friend who's gone a few times recommended the deviled eggs, so we'll try that next time. The place itself seems small from the outside, but there are a surprising amount of seats. I love that the bathroom has clean towels to use instead of wasting paper towels. We sat at the bar and Allen and Ben (I think) were great. Told us all about the drinks and cool battle of the bars events they were having. Update: deviled Eggs and Buffalo dip is fantastic!

Came in to have a couple of drinks. We were sat down and waited 15 minutes before someone even addressed us and asked us if we wanted to order. The server looked like she didn't want to be there. We told her what we wanted to order and she said "okay" and when I asked to have the "cold brew martini" made with tequila she said "wait what? I don't know what you're talking about"... indicating that she didn't actually hear our order. When we finally got our drinks, the drinks were spilled on the table and not cleaned up (keep in mind we still don't have any napkins). I had to ask someone walking by to grab something so we could wipe our drinks and table. No one checked to see if we wanted to grab another drink (we didn't, we couldn't get out of there fast enough), so we finally found someone to ask for our check to which she said "okay have a nice night" and started to walk away until we stopped her to tell her we hadn't paid yet. For a place that was named a top bar in edmonds, I had higher expectations.

Why haven't I come here sooner? This is such a fantastic cocktail bar with an extensive menu! I love bars like these where you are overwhelmed with options so you just stay longer and order 3-4 drinks. We came here on a Friday evening for girls' night out after dinner at Fire and the Feast and this was a great time. Lots of great choices to pick from and I gravitate towards gin. I can't remember the names of what I got but one of them had a nice coconutty flavor. Our servers were really helpful in explaining the flavors and recommendations as well. Highly recommend for a date night or girls' night out!

The drinks were amazing but not the price.The deviled eggs were ok but presentation not so much . The drinks were wonderful but the price of a meal. Absolutely wonderful on drinks but way too pricey. Glad we had a chance to taste such a wonderful talent of bartending in making drinks.

Extremely creative with their drinks..Many tasty options. Of course price increases accordingly. Service was excellent, they took very good care of us, trying to make us comfortable seating and good food. Had the deviled eggs, definitely recommend although I looked at it as getting good ideas to do at home significantly cheaper. .They do have so many options too.

Had a good time here with one of my best friends last night (we've been friends for 25 years!). Drinks were amazing and the service was fun! We are so happy we walked up the hill from the nightmare we experienced at a tiny bar next to the theater... kelnero is the new go to spot and I will be coming back to drink through the entire menu!!

Edmonds continues to be the greater Seattle area's little secret oasis of dining and cocktail culture. Gentle readers, Kelnero is a cocktail aficionado's paradise. Believe me, if you're a seeker of fine, crafted libations, if you thirst for the lost cocktail menus of Olympus' mixologists to the gods, then I dare say the Kelnero team will fill your heart with joy. And mystery. These aren't your ordinary cocktails. The restaurant's bartenders offer a wide variety of original drinks you're not likely to find elsewhere. No spoilers here, but by all means check out their menu. You will not be disappointed. Lest I forget, if you have waved a dismissing hand to alcohol, if you've cried to the heavens, "Noooooo, I deny you, bourbon, and I tweak the nose of Cognac!" then you'll be pleased, perhaps astonished, even flummoxed to learn they have brilliant mocktails. Try the The City, their excellent alcohol-free take o. the Manhattan. As for the food? Mostly tapas-sized portions which are delicious. Pro-tips: * Definitely get there by 5PM to grab a table unless you prefer the bar. * During the summer their outdoor seating is great for people-watching but it fills up fast... since we get about 5 minutes of sun a year, so... * Keep your smartphone handy. The thing about the cocktail menu? So unique are some of the ingredients, you'll need to look them up. For example, I don't have a clue what "Bigallet China China" or "Sennza Finner Autumn amaro" is, but I KNOW THEY TASTE GREAT. * The staff work really hard. Be nice. They run a great place and are extremely attentive.

Such an awesome cocktail spot. It's small, so walk-ins normally have to wait for a seat and there is a wall ledge where some folks were standing with their drinks. We popped in early and were able to snag seats at the bar. We enjoyed our drinks and the ambiance very much. A little pricey but not enough to deter me, ha!

We saw the stellar reviews and decided to wander in here on a whim for a cocktail while also searching for some serious dinner. First, the setting was fine, we got seated at the end of the bar near. A hallway which was not very attractive. But it was clean at least. The food options were super light. Baked wings and charcuterie? Ok this can be forgiven if the drinks are amazing and the service is killer.. Welllllll, The drinks were ok. Maybe i made wrong choices but everything i tried just tasted very much like booze. Nothing light or airy or whimsical, just the strong taste of alcohol. Not exactly the craft cocktail experience we were promised. And lastly, unfortunately, the service was definitely the worst part. Our bartender routinely took 20+ minutes to fulfill a single drink order. She told us "it's gonna be a while" when we would make a request. She never smiled, never added any charm or even attempted to be likable. She seemed like she was having a bad day and didn't care how she came across. Suffice it to say, this one is on the skip list for us.

Went to this place for the hot toddy face-off with some friends and let me tell you, the competition was fierce--but not because of the toddies. They managed to forget the lemon juice, which is pretty much the only redeeming part of the drink, which the bartender did remember but only after 2 of the toddy's were finished. But hey, who needs it when you're paying $18 for something that tastes like hot water with too much booze. Do yourself a favor: skip the toddy, save your money, and go somewhere where they actually remember the ingredients.

First time here, they have indoor & patio seating. We tried Sunnny beach rum, grapefruit, lime, falernum, bergamot bitters, cloves heavy spice and bright fruit. and Lumberjack gin, honey, aromatic and doug fir bitters, Clear Creek douglas fir brandy, rosemary strong. earthy. powerful. Along with a couple of small bites $12 mushroom quesadilla (v) roasted mushrooms, flour tortilla, Monterey jack cheese, pickled jalapeños and sweet peppers, citrus crema, lime wedges And $10 roastpano (gfo, v, vgo) buttered sourdough toast, sweet potato hummus, greens, radish, pickled peppers, olive oil vegan without butter All were delicious we will definitely be back.

I walked right past this place, it was that incognito. In fact, I parked really close to it but I thought it was down the street. It's about cocktails and I just grabbed a couple before heading to dinner. There were a couple locals that got a bit rowdy, but the staff was friendly. Maybe a fun place to land to when you are in the area.

The passion in a time of corona cocktail is EPIC and the food here is fab as well. Fave cocktail spot in Edmonds and we don't even live in edmonds! Love the outdoor seating which fills up fast on a sunny evening, but inside is good too!

After learning about Kelnero literally from the owners I was so anxious to check it out. So impressed. We grabbed a great table on the back patio and the table heater was a nice addition. On a cold Friday evening! The cocktail menu goes on for days but I settled on the black Rose and the Jell-O shot because, why not! Cocktails all around were spot on. The waiter was knowledgeable, friendly and was able to make really well thought out suggestions based on our preferences. The drink were so great I had to stop at two, so foe sure will be returning to try others, although it will be hard not to stick with that black rose doe this vodka drinker. Let's not forget the food!!!! The salmon chowder (not a white creamy chowder) was delicious. The toast on the side was grilled and amazing, I stole a bite even though I am gluten free. Loves that the menu has lots of gluten free options as well. We also enjoyed the deviled eggs and the charcuterie board. Everything about our experience was amazing. The k my negative is that this is not my neighborhood! Otherwise I would probably be there weekly!

A unique ADVENTURE. So fun and great food. Knowledgeable staff and high quality interesting food. Grateful for the experience. Cocktails and oysters had a classic martini and it was good. It was not out of this world and may have been a touch bruised but still was absolutely delicious with the Kumamoto oysters and mignonette sauce that is slightly frozen. Brilliant!!! Especially on a hot day.

We aren't ones to go out for cocktails but decided to stop here for something different. I don't have anything to compare this place to. They have a large selection of different alcohol, that is one menu and then another lists the different cocktails. I wanted to try a cocktail that had mezcal in it. I didn't want a drink where the taste of the mezcal would be hidden so the waitress suggested a couple of spirt forward drinks. I ordered the contender and it was what I was looking for. I could taste the mezcal in it and the other ingredients didn't over power the drink. The other drink was a beer from an Edmonds brewery that was also very good. They do serve some food, we ordered a pretzel board. The beer cheese and mustard I liked more than the Kraut. Good help from the waitress finding the right drink and during our visit. Will come back when we visit Edmunds again.

Wonderful place to hang out and have great cocktails. I am normally not a mixed drink person, but the drinks here are a lot of fun. I have not had a bad one! Generally great service from people who are very knowledgeable about the menu items. Do what your tab it is easy to spend $$$ here.

Kelnero used to be our "go-to" place for a cocktail and a few appetizers with friends. Not any longer. We got so much attitude from the bartender last night that we vowed never to go back. I don't mind going up to the bar to ask for our server (wait, yes I do!), but I don't expect to find the bartender mixing a drink absent-mindedly with a cocktail stirrer while she stares at her phone. WTH? Then, she acted like I was interrupting her and was very curt with me. What happened to good customer service? She was also rude to my friend. And, I have to say that the food has gone downhill. We used to love the pretzel bread, but it was doughy and the cheese sauce was horrible. My last comment has to do with the setting. We were seated in a room off the hall with the narrowest table I've ever seen. We could barely fit our drinks, plates, and appetizers on it. Plus, it feels very unwelcoming to be closed off from the rest of the bar and the waitstaff tends to forget about you. There are other places in Edmonds with nice people and good cocktails.

Best. In. Edmonds! I'm so excited to have found this little spot at the top of downtown Edmonds! They have a cute little outside patio deck where my friend was able to bring her dog - they even have a water bowl out for pups so they don't get dehydrated in the sun! Right now they have everything in to-go containers but they will be transitioning soon back to 50% regular capacity. I ordered the corpse reviver (see cute mini bottle in photos!) the cauliflower and brussels sprouts salad, and the Basque seasoned popcorn. The food and beverage were everything you could hope for and more but I was even more impressed with how they had their storefront setup. Everything and everyone followed guidelines for sanitation and they even sanitized our credit cards after payment. They have a huge selection of local products from planters to every distiller under the sun. I was so impressed with the takeaway options here. And on top of all that the folks who work here are super friendly, helpful, and not flustered like some folk at other places in town have been. Can't wait to return to this hidden gem!

Wow!!! My friends just moved to Edmonds and we have been trying new spots on the regular and we were so happy to find Kelnero! The staff was so great and inviting as soon as we walked in. The ambiance was romantic but it's fine to go as a group or singles. Loved it! The drinks were amazing and spot on just what we needed for the night. If you want a good cocktail bar please go here! Their list of rules on their menu was hilarious and cute!

I discovered this bar through a local instablogger and immediately had to go try it! They have wonderful outdoor seating and literally a book of all different types of cocktails and liquor they can make. I was blown away by the selection of cocktails and couldn't decide on just one...so multiple drinks were had that night! I tried their pisco sour which I was excited about as from my country (Chile) it's the best thing. I wasn't very impressed as it wasn't as sweet so I moved onto the dark rose cocktail. That cocktail was phenomenal and I couldn't get enough of it! To offset the spirits, we ordered some appetizers and were impressed with not only the presentation but also the flavors. I loved this bar so much that I setup a team event with my coworkers here after work one day. They absolutely loved it as well! I plan on coming back very soon, but until then, I dream of that dark rose cocktail

Stopped in after the Arts Festival for a cocktail with friends. Despite being busy, we were greeted and sat right away. Service was exceptional and cocktails were outstanding. Having separate spaces for seating made it feel like we were in our own private VIP room. I highly recommend the Alpine Fever and the Froot Loops- both were refreshing not only in taste but as conversation starters. We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and will be back soon.

Edmonds is definitely picking up a nice concentration of places where you can go out and enjoy yourself. 10 years ago it was sleepy but friendly, and that was it; now you can actually choose from a variety of good foods and drinks. Kelnero is the craft cocktail spot in the Bowl. Coming down Main Street toward the roundabout, there are a bunch of businesses tucked together under one roof that's a block long. Kelnero is at the top of the incline, with the painted-brick facade and the little C19 patio enclosure that most of these places have. You might sit on the patio, you might get a table inside, or you might go down the breezeway for a spot in the alley patio out back. We sat out back on a perfect early spring day. We had all just come from lunch or we probably would have raided the appetizers that take up a whole page on the menu. You can get a couple bigger plates and get full, but for my money all the small plates would have been the more fun way to go...if we had actually showed up with any appetite. The other 3 pages of the menu are alllll cocktails, arranged by, more or less, I'd say mood. Boozy, classic, and so on, with a few choices under each. Some of them are cocktails everyone knows, some go back decades and haven't been served as often until the last few years, some are unique to this place. Even the Jello shots here are delicious, and I don't even give a damn about Jello shots. I'm completely serious about this. Each one comes out with the correct glass, correct garnish, correct ice, and so on. They put real effort into all the touches--the ice is perfectly clear, and so on. Everything smelled and tasted great. Each time a round came out, everyone oohed and aahed and got everyone else interested in ordering one for themselves. What really makes this place fun is the staff. Everybody's super nice and knows their job cold. Different people ran out different drinks, so we got to meet virtually everyone on the clock yesterday, and they all made us want to hang out longer and enjoy more stuff. Prices were definitely not a screaming deal, but for the occasional splurge the value is there 150%. I'm sure I'll be back soon.

This is now my favorite cocktail bar. Everything is amazing and I love jsut making my way down the menu (pages worth). I've now brought different friend groups and everyone's loved it every time. I think one of my favorites is the pistachio punch. Just such a unique drink and so well balanced. Every drink is just an adventure and I love it. Really hope I can be back for the frozen drinks too.

My wife and I stumbled in here for a late lunch/early cocktail hour before a show and we were quite pleasantly surprised. I can't remember the cocktail my wife had, but I had a Manhattan made with barrel toasted Elijah Craig and it turned out to be one of the best Manhattan's I've ever had. We had the bread and butter and truly enjoyed the warm, crusty bread with the assortment of house made compound butters. We'll be back!

My favorite sisters-in-law and I visit this place often as our reward for accomplishing our weekend walk through Edmonds. We like to get the Bloody Marys and a bite. They have done extensive work on the patio to stay open during the covid crisis and I have found every single staff member to be nothing less than charming. Craft cocktails and delicious plates that are genuinely made with care and thoughtfulness are evident every time I have visited. Besides the Bloody Marys being delicious, you need to try the Benedict on their weekend brunch menu. So good. I look forward to spending many more Saturday afternoons here!

Had a great date night with a few yummy drinks and one of the best treats in a peach bruschetta. I called to ask if they were dog friendly outside and the person on the other end chuckled and said "dog encouraged!" That was enough for us to try it out. We parked just across the street on Main Street and, low and behold, there was a perfect spot for us at a table under an umbrella. The patio was a great choice for us and the staff was kind and attentive. We never felt rushed or overwhelmed and instead were greeted by warm and receptive staff. This is not a place for those trying to spend less, though there was a special slushee we did not end up trying. For a special little date night, it was perfect. Cheers!

Dark and classy bar with incredible cocktail menu and small plates. The book of cocktails is magnificent. It might appear overwhelming at first, but it's arranged by flavor profile rather than booze which helps narrow down your options. In addition to cocktails (ranging from $10 to $85 with the median probably being $16), they also have wine, beer, and cider as well as some fancy mocktails. The Lumberjack (Scratch Barrel-Finished gin, honey, aromatic & douglas fir bitters, douglas fir brandy, rosemary) was strong and wintery. Perfect for a cold night. I tried sips of the Salt Bay Bae (mezcal, Kuma turmeric liqueur, lime, agave, curry & ghost chili tinctures, bay leaf, curry salt rim) and the Black Walnut Manhattan (rye whiskey, Averna amaro, black walnut liqueur, aromatic bitters, cherry) which were both interesting, well balanced, and delicious. Food was alright but definitely less impressive. More snacky than meal, so don't come too hungry! We shared the quesadilla (tiniest I've every seen at $13), the pretzel board (more like a wee pretzel baguette for $10), deviled eggs (3 for $5), and two orders of the smoked potato dumplings (a laughably small serving for $14 but too good not to order another round). Service was friendly and knowledgeable. I will come back here for drinks any night of the week!

Kelnero one of the best spots for cocktails in Edmonds. Their menu is extensive, and everything is delicious. I've been there three times in the last three weeks, and I'm already planning a return date. They've yet to serve me a drink I don't love. I'm partial to the smoke on the water, and their hot buttered rum (so perfect while we fine outside), and they do all the standards so well. When I was last there, we ordered a small plate with the most delicious carrots, mint, and a yogurt sauce. Can't wait to try more! The cocktails can take a while to come out, but they're worth the wait.

Best drinks. Best staff. Best pretzel. Worst deviled eggs... But we don't go here for the deviled eggs. This place never disappoints.

This is my 3rd time visiting this place. Never disappoint!! Their cocktails are amazing. Well balanced and super delicious!! They sure know their stuff. I hope they will be in business for years to come. Definitely will support them frequently. Highly recommend this place to all my friends. Fortunately I don't live far so will definitely be a regular.

Amazing service. Great drinks- Pisco sour, pistachio punch were perfect. Got there early, so quiet and calm. The menu was informative and fun to read.

Popped in for a beverage. A bit pricey, but chill, comfortable, and awesome selection. Service was great.

Kelnero has made me fall in love with cocktails. Between me and my husband, I am quite certain we have tried every drink on the menu. They are always exceptional, carefully crafted, well-balanced, true to their description, beautiful, and fun. The drinks are great, but the service is equally stellar. We once came in straight from putting our dog down. After we cried through a couple of rounds, we felt we should explain ourselves. Our waiter then brought flutes of champagne (on the house) to toast our pup's memory. The innovations and outdoor seating options have kept us regulars during the pandemic. I love being a customer here because I know I will get something great and also support a business that is working hard to support Edmonds.

Great spot!! Loved the drinks and good location. My only comment is the girl who works there, I think she is a manager or something. She needs to be friendlier. She just seemed annoyed and unhappy. There was a guy there that was cool. I think his name was Nick. He was nice.

Great casual atmosphere, ambiance is A+, and the drinks were stiff and delicious! Got the old fashioned made with Scratch Distillery's whiskey and my wife got the Resting Beach face. Charcuterie was delicious and I highly recommend the bread as well!

I don't know how I haven't written about how amazing this place is!? I have been here 3-4 times now and it's been wonderful every time! Think between my friends and myself we have been through at least 2/3 of the cocktail menu and are never disappointed! The staff is friendly and attentive without being annoying. I have sat outside everytime and it's nice atmosphere, but prefer the low tables. My favorite food is a halloumi rhubarb dish that is out of this world! The cheese plate is also nice to munch on! Will have to go back and check out their music nights, but very happy with this new addition to the Edmonds scene :)

Yes. It's a five star craft cocktail bar. No. We don't have many of those. Closest would be Corvus on Capitol Hill. Yes, we will be back, many many times. Their menu is better than movies. Must explore. We've had Last of the Oaxans, Naked and Famous, and Sloe Boat to China. All perfect.
