Best Historic Restaurants in Kent, Seattle / Eastern Washington

Communion is a gem. The food is bountiful and flavorful, and the service is friendly and genuine. It is a dining experience worth savoring.

Our server was very attentive and helped make it a memorable experience. Both the food and the service were fantastic. We were actually surprised the restaurant was not rated a 5 star! We definitely give it 5 stars!!

This was such a cool spot and the food was outstanding. The ambience of the place was incredible, especially for a first time visitor to Seattle. The service was fantastic as well.

Outstanding luncheon celebration for a friend's 80th birthday. Everything was great - food, service and celebratory dessert.

My husband and I celebrated my birthday at Carmine’s in Bellevue, and it was one of those dining experiences that reminds you why certain restaurants become favorites. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. Our server, Terence (“T”), was outstanding: warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making the evening special without ever being overbearing. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Fettuccine Al Pesto con Gamberoni with pesto and prawns, and it was incredible. I especially love that Carmine’s offers both small and large portions, which lets you enjoy a rich pasta dish without feeling like you have to commit to an enormous serving. My husband had the Grilled King Salmon Battuto and couldn’t stop talking about how good it was. The drink menu is just as impressive. They have an extensive wine list, great champagne selections, and excellent cocktails. The espresso martinis are fantastic and the perfect way to end the meal. What really elevated the evening were the thoughtful touches. The staff beautifully prepared our table for my birthday and surprised me with a complimentary tiramisu complete with a candle. It made the celebration feel personal and memorable. The location itself is beautiful, and with the outdoor patio now open for summer, it’s an even better spot to visit. Bonus points for being dog-friendly, which we always appreciate. Outstanding food, exceptional service, a gorgeous setting, and genuine hospitality. We’re already planning our next visit. Carmine’s made my birthday feel truly special.
