    My partner and I came for a date night on a weekday. We sat outside, which was lovely, and got the last available outdoor table around 6pm. We shared the roasted cauliflower, seasonal flatbread and summer risotto. The presentation of each dish was beautiful and the taste was fantastic too! The roasted cauliflower looked like an art sculpture (see picture). We ate until we were stuffed and then made sure to pack up every remaining bite to savor later. I had white wine and my partner got an espresso cocktail. Both drinks were fabulous! The dinner was perfect - we were outside among huge trees and the service was attentive but relaxed. They brought out our dishes 1 by 1 so we had time to try them all without feeling rushed. We will be back to this cozy neighborhood spot to try their other dishes!

    Had the best meal of a trip to the PNW at Single Shot. I don’t usually eat pork, and I tried my spouse’s Salmon Creek Pork Chop dish and it is the first pork dish I’ve tried that could turn me into an eater of pork. I had the housemade gnocchi which was also outstanding. We ordered multiple salad appetizers and each was outstanding, with flavor mixes that actually make sense in lieu of just being trendy. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want an excellent dinner that’s both gourmet quality with generous portions.

    Upscale casual gastropub with a twist! Great cocktails (and yes they have some Green Chartreuse left). I had the housemade Focaccia (Capers, Leeks, Black Garlic Butter, Herbed Ricotta) ; the housemade Tagliatelle (Braised Rabbit, Bacon, Cream, Parmesan Cheese) ; and the Cannoli (Pistachio Ricotta Filling, Chocolate Sauce). Everything was delicious. Frankly, I don't know why I haven't heard about this well hidden gem before yesterday. Will absolutely come back!
