Restaurants in Bothell

“The servers were all wonderful, very attentive & helpful. If you park in the garage, mention that to the greeter when you arrive. It's a popular place so it gets crowded & a bit loud --that's the only negative from my POV.”

“Bothell’s Ta Joia isn’t your sleepy strip-mall filler—it’s a technicolor veggie parade disguised as dinner. I ordered bibimbop, spring rolls, and the feijoada bowl, which felt like a samba in a rice bowl. It’s the rare spot where “eating your vegetables” is less a chore and more a sly dare. Flavor bombs everywhere, and suddenly I’m craving greens I never cared about. That’s Bothell magic.”

“Ate their paneer biryani and it was the worst in the area. I'm surprised because you would think with so many Indian restaurants around, this place should've checked competition before starting it.”

“Waited patiently as this shop reworked the old Lyon's Den coffee house here in Bothell, and when I found they were open I went and had them make me a sandwich. And then another. And then a third, and now I'm on a fourth (the joker dip) as I write this review. Because they're just that good. I don't go there daily (I don't want to tire of them!), but what with them being across the street from the post office where my mail goes, it's not only an easy stop, it's a winner as far as the food. Food is quite tasty, staff are wonderful and friendly. This isn't fancy, interior is mostly a no-frills vibe, but you will not regret getting a sandwich from these guys. For any New Yorkers reading this or similarly inclined to this end, if you want your Durkee turkey you gotta buy your own Durkee sauce for home; sorry, I don't make the rules, and I don't know of any sandwich shop in Seattle that carries the sauce.”

“Some of the finest tortas.”

“While we unfortunately don't live in state and get to enjoy the stores in person, we have been purchasing from Zulus online for over 4 years now and we have always had a positive experience with them. This last order I had placed was no different on their end, had an issue with a pricey package being marked as delivered and misdelivered multiple times by UPS over the course of 2 weeks, back and forth getting nowhere and Zulus customer support was so helpful all along the way. Amazing communication, we had purchased the shipping insurance and they helped to get us a replacement order via Fedex, appreciate them so much through all of that. Keep kicking butt Zulus!”

“My family has been going to Spartas for over 20 years. The food is so good, staff always super friendly. These guys helped get us through the pandemic! Their pizza is the highlight!”

“Friendly staff and delicious food! I highly recommend this restaurant!”

“los tacos de xicama están delicioso”

“it is such a charming shop with a delightful, friendly owner. She has worked hard to bring her vision to life. The macarons are delicious and come in a unique array of rotating flavors, and her character macarons and cakes are adorable. Do yourself a favor and drop in to check it out for yourself. You won't be disappointed (unless they sell out of your favorite before you get there).”

“Great comfort food and very friendly staff!”

“It is a great place with very friendly &kind people who offer extremely delicious food. I really recommend it for everyone”

“I absolutely love this place. It is one of my go-to spots in Bothell for consistent quality and service. The food and drinks are excellent. I have been there at every hour of the day and highly recommend all of their menus.”

“so yummy Japenese food and fresh dishes😘😋😍”

“good food. fast friendly service”

“a fun speakeasy style atmosphere with great service, amazing drinks and good food.”

“Expensive desserts but good. I love the durian and caramelized croissant.”

“I always get my Salad its the best , all the vegetables are fresh. Its the best salad ive come across in my area. ive had it at least 100xs. It's consistently the best! if you want a great authentic Italian dish, this is your spot.”

“Delicious food and great service! Best Italian food I’ve had in ages! Highly recommend this place!”

“Got takeout from big fish sushi tonight, hubs made a mistake ordering hand rolls instead of maki and they remade them for free. Super nice even though it was totally our fault. They also have a great bento box for kids, katsu,rice,California roll and edamame for $9 for kids. They have enough for 2-3 meals. Everything was delicious we will definitely be ordering again soon”

“First time here and in LOVE! By far the best Mexican food we've ever eaten! Food is authentic and flavorful, the service is amazing! I had the Chicken Tortilla Soup, boyfriend had the Chicken Fajitas.”

“me encanta el pozole, sabrosooooooooooooooooooo!!😉”

“Good food and lots of gluten free options”

“You owe it to yourself to try their food. Don't be fooled by the outward appearance of a food truck in front of a rental hall. This place has the best tacos I have ever eaten. Their Quesabirria tacos are unbelievably good. My only regret is that I didn't order more.”

“Bejawada biryani aa mazaka.!! The best biryani in town 🙌🏻🤟🏻🫡🎉”

“If you are looking for delicious and authentic this is a great choice… savory menu items and extremely hospitable. Can’t wait to eat here again”

“Ordered for takeout and food was so good. Great portions and friendly (masked) service. So relieved; I don't have to cook every day!”

“12/25/2025, 5pm Fyi, they are 2 hours behind and don't start until you arrive. Get here in a hurry if you want to eat today. Thankful they're open! Merry Christmas.”

“Rama House has been a life saver after long days at work, when sick, and when I needed to enjoy a meal with friends. They prepare every dish with care, service is fast and courteous, and quality is reflected in the price. My brother and dad, who’ve been to Thailand loved the food, my dad so much that I have to take Penang curry to Georgia whenever I travel. I’m partial to their pad see ew and pad garlic. It’s tucked away between a dental office and bustling Mexican restaurants which make it easy to miss but it’s definitely a hidden gem for anyone who enjoys Thai food and wants high quality food.”

“I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service provided by the staff during our visit. The food was truly outstanding. A special acknowledgment goes to David, Ruth, Larry, and Trevor, who went above and beyond to ensure that we had an enjoyable experience with both our meals and drinks. I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough, and I look forward to returning in the future. Thank you for your hospitality!”

“These dogs are amazing. And their homemade baked beans are the best I’ve ever tasted. I love this place, some days I run my errands on a different route just so I can get by there and get all the yummms!! ♥️♥️ and the owners/workers are extremely friendly and accommodating.”

“Nice selection of beers, lots of outdoor seating . Should check it out”

“I've eaten here numerous times, ordering various dishes from this restaurant and they cease to amaze me with their friendly staff, fast service, big portions (especially for the price), and amazing quality. I'm always greeted with a friendly smile from the employees and the food always comes out fast and fresh! It has great options for vegetarians as well. They have many substitutions and upgrades to the food for amazing prices. This place is great for solo lunches, quick family dinner, and just grabbing bite with a friend!”

“Always great! Even when they are packed for Christmas and have a beautiful Santa set up in back, they still made great food! Highly recommend the bacon double and the turkey master!”

“Quick service, nice staff, a bit too loud, but I am usually hypersensitive to noise. They do have an outdoor alternative that could use some warming poles now that the weather is cold. Overall, we enjoyed it and the food was ok.”

“Pho is excellent, comparable to the Than Brothers.
We’ve been going here for over 10 years, and it is easily our favorite Pho place in the Seattle area. Everything is delicious! The spicy chicken wings, the spring rolls, the pho. Everything we have ever tried has been amazing.”

“Very good service, like the girl smile assisting me,”

“Best people. Best food!😀”

“Food is very Delicious. It was my First time trying Colombian food. I will definitely be coming again , highly recommend to check it out.”

“Incredible food! They are seriously our née favorite. Reasonably priced and amazing eats. We will be regulars. Gracias!”

“I love Lori’s Deli! The owners are so kind and if you go often remember you by name (and drink order if you’re as repetitive as me 😂). The sandwiches and iced coffee are delicious and the bagels with cream cheese singlehandedly got me through my first trimester of pregnancy.”

“This is a wonderful restaurant with great servers and amazing food. I will definitely be back”

“First of all I've been a patron of this business for at least 15 years in all that time there have been very few mistakes made in the preparation of the drinks. They have organic options and their coffee is organic! Super important to this nutritional therapy practitioner. Love the service, the little extras such as the chocolate coffee beans. The ability to load a card and get a free drink is always nice too. The business model is perfect. And they actually care about their customers.”

“I have been coming here for over a year! This place has great service, food, and relaxing atmosphere. Ask Moo for some amazing drinks from the bar!”

“Excellent customer service. Very professional and treated us like we belonged there. They showed appreciation for my sons birthday by bringing him ice-cream with a candle in it. Everyone in my family enjoyed the food. We will definitely be returning in the future. 💫💫💫💫💫 Five stars”

“It Felt like “Cheers” when I walked in because immediate bonding and interaction with the other customers, and of course the service was friendly. The server asked what I wanted, and she gave me limitless samples of just about about all of their IPAs and spiked ciders, limeades. Music is ‘80s(best decade) so of course its cool 😎”

“This place is spot on with Korean fried chicken, the build your own bowl with the soy egg has my heart. My daughter loves the glass noodles. Will be coming back as much as I can when in Bothell.”

“Woohoo. Stayed open this morning with the area power outage and had cold brew on hand for cold drinks. I could tell those ladies were cold, but they had beaming smiles and such positive energy for keeping business rolling. Thanks!”

“My aunt loves Ivar's fish & chips, so she was very happy that there was one close to her assisted living apartment.

It was fun to listen to her tell stories of going to Ivar's pier 54 on the Seattle waterfront when she was young.

Food was good, think I will get her an Ivar's gift card for Christmas 🎄

Several tables needed to be cleaned, but restaurant was busy so that is to be expected.”

“We love Viva Jalisco! It has been our go-to Mexican takeout place for years, and we highly recommend the enchiladas rancheras. Deciding to order takeout and not have to cook during any particular evening sometimes feels like a lovely decision; it is even more lovely when the person who answers the phone at the restaurant calls you “my lady” and helps to manifest delicious enchiladas rancheras.

Tonight was our first evening actually dining in the restaurant, and everyone who came in the door got warm greetings and great service. Our kids can be selective eaters, and the staff were patient, kind, and helpful, with a simple bean and cheese burrito for the win.

We highly recommend this place! It’s a little Bothell gem - good food, and a small town family feel.”

“Stopped in at this teriyaki shop for a quick bite while I was having a tire repaired at the shop nearby. I ordered a chicken teriyaki with a side of gyoza. The food was excellent, the chicken was tender with nice looking char lines from the grill. The gyoza was just the way I like it with the outside crispy and the inside juicy. The restaurant had condiments on the table including teriyaki sauce which I always appreciate. Overall great experience!”

“I got to experience Chantanee Thai Restaurant this evening and it has become a favorite of mine for sure! the food is fresh, flavorful and delicious! Great service, a clean and comfy restaurant. I tried the Crispy Cashew Chicken, which is the best I've had. I ordered a level 2 spice and it was very got for me, so if you enjoy spicy hot food, this is a great place to try. Can't wait to take the hubby here!!! Their sauces are great, the fried vegetable spring rolls are a great appetizer. Excellent experience!”

“La comida es exquisita y muy bien decorada. De los mejores sustos que he probado. Sin duda el mejor lugar. Me encanta el servicio al cliente es excelente! ya muero por regresar 👌😘”

“Two great coffees and a Pup-a-Chino for Jane. It’s her new favorite place! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”

“Great little place, the main shopping center is undergoing a lot of renovations, but this place is still open and worked really hard to make my friends and I welcomed”

“Now this is more like it, once the silver lake location closed it's doors, it is very clear that all the focus has gone to the cafe, the cafes quality and fresh food. I am and have been a fan of the Texan's coffee. The quality is back up to S tier versus the last half of the silver lake stand's life span. It being solely a family only run and employeed staff now, this makes it so the soul and product is at their top level and top standards instead of relying on others. I'm excited to see this cafe succeed. I am a fan of the homemade food, things are pricey but that is everywhere either way. Huge props to the family.”

“Fun atmosphere, great owner and family, good food!!”

“Pizza and salad were great tonight. Amazing service. In and out in less than an hour!❤️”

“best meal while in Seattle area.”

“Been going here for years and it's still an excellent teriyaki - I love the spicy mushroom one. Thanks for dozens of great dinners over the years, I appreciate it.”

“Love the gyros!! The best service!!”

“The owners are amazing and so friendly. 😁 My dad and I always loved going here to enjoy the delicious food and great conversations with the owners for many years. Since my dad's death almost 3 years ago it has been bitter sweet visiting this restaurant again with so many great memories. One day I hope to return because I miss the great food and even better friendly conversations with the owners as we enjoyed our meal. My dad and I always ordered Sizzling Rice Soup to share, Almond or Lemon Chicken and Mongolian Beef or Triple Delight. Every time we came the owners knew what we wanted to eat. 😁”

“The gals are sweet and the drinks are always good. I dont know about other people but for me, I dont like burnt tasting espresso. These girls have not done that to me once, it always tastes fresh. The revvup is always just sweet enough too amd they flavor combos they recommend are wonderful 🔥 only thing I dont like about this place is the way the parking lot is designed but even then, I like that the girls only have 1 person pulling up to the window at a time :) super sweet, hardworking people and definitely on of my favorite coffee stands, (location not company)”

“You will find happy faces here!”

“Excellent coffee! The Mulkilteo Coffee is so good. The staff is wonderful, and the service is consistently great—you get a perfect drink every time, no matter the barista.”

“Best drinks in Washington.
No stars for food because I have not eaten anything there yet.

If your not sure what you want just as for a surprise blend,latte, lotus or what ever your in the mood for and I guarantee you that you won’t be disappointed. Roxy is amazing and has not gotten anything wrong with the surprises yet , very friendly ,beautiful and full of energy and knows how to carry on a conversation. Mama Bears drink prices are spot on and very competitive to Colorado prices. I absolutely recommend this coffee shop.
Thank you
Kevin jones”

“Great because it is the only coffee stand open before 7 am on a Saturday for those of us parents up and going that early on weekends!!! Super thrilled they were open that early!”

“super friendly and kind staff!! the coffee is delicious! i also really appreciate that there's a punch card offered for returning customers. i hope to come back soon, thank you!”

“The coffee stand was excellent—the coffee was really good, and they followed my instructions perfectly. The staff was on point: attentive, efficient, and clearly knew what they were doing. The service made the experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.”

“Love this place! I moved to Bothell recently and was bummed to lose the coffee stand by my old apartment. They had the best matcha I'd ever had with excellent service and prices. So I was delighted when I tried out NW Espresso and their matcha was just as good! Staff are lovely and are already remembering my dog and my usual order. So happy to have found another great coffee spot close to home!”

“I drive past the rest for a cup of the best!!
Consistent and delicious coffee every time!

Kid-friendliness: Some places aren’t, these are!!”

“Really cool place friendly nice people great food”

“From my son: This is the best restaurant in the world. Go there now. 5 stars. He is not wrong! We go here regularly. The food is absolutely delicious and the customer service is excellent. We usually split the Factoria Platter (best greek fries I have ever had) but have also enjoyed their gyros and falafel. I doubt there is any way you could go wrong with any of their dishes. The gentleman who runs the place is very kind to, and engaging with, my verbose kid. He even gives him special little treats and samples sometimes. We really enjoy our weekly lunch date at Greek Pita. You will too.”

“God blessed my day with an extra wonderful, yet dangerously delicious pizza 🍕 made my night.
I would make it an amendment instead of a recommendation for this location.”

“The Beef Bugolgi I had was great! very little fat left on it so more protein to be had 👍👍
Kimchi was strong as well
Got this food within about 5-8 minutes so pretty quick.
Definitely will came back for another lunch brunch 🤙”

“Me and my dad go to the pancake house all the time. the pancake house is a great place to meet up with family or friends. I love their gluten-free and vegan options. overall, the pancake house is a very welcoming, wonderful place.”

“I brought my girlfriend here to celebrate her retirement. It is the first time either of us had been and we were both very pleased with the atmosphere and the customer service was fantastic. Our server was Melissa and she was awesome, explained everything on our tray and helped us with deciding on what tea we may like to order. She checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed or if she could get us anything else. The owner also came out to introduce herself and assure we were enjoying ourselves. I will definitely be telling others about our experience and will recommend this venue. I will be back again.”

“If you know the McMenamins story and haven't been here, you should give it a go!! One of the things I love most about these places is that no matter which venue you're visiting (even if it's your first time there) they are all so familiar, friendly and for me, feels so comfortable!! The food is outstanding, the beer, wine and spirits can't be beat, the staff is so incredible and what can I say about the atmosphere other than - if you know, you know!! This was my first time to the Anderson School and I highly recommend!!!”

“Ate their paneer biryani and it was the worst in the area. I'm surprised because you would think with so many Indian restaurants around, this place should've checked competition before starting it.”

“I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service provided by the staff during our visit. The food was truly outstanding.

“Great food and even better customer service. Thank you”

“Bone in ribeye was amazing with the garlic butter. the chilled starter salad was better than I remember with just the right amount of onions croutons and tomatoes. Finished off with the creamiest cheesecake topped off with raspberry sauce. YUMMY!!”

“We had a bite at McMenamins Tavern on the Square before seeing Uncle Buzzy at Hayne's Hall. The Tavern is a fun, warm atmosphere, with great service. Thank you!”

“My family has been going to Spartas for over 20 years. The food is so good, staff always super friendly. These guys helped get us through the pandemic! Their pizza is the highlight!”

“This Chick-fil-A location is quite clean overall and the atmosphere is nice. There’s almost always people sat down and eating inside of the restaurant, but it’s not super noisy. The employees here are quite respectful and their service is quick and professional. I have not ordered food here before, I have only ever picked up DoorDash/Uber eats orders from this location, but their turnaround time on orders is very nice and quick. I’ve never really had to wait for an order to be picked up from this location thus far. Overall, no complaints at all, and I would definitely recommend this location.”

“Quick service, nice staff, a bit too loud, but I am usually hypersensitive to noise. They do have an outdoor alternative that could use some warming poles now that the weather is cold. Overall, we enjoyed it and the food was ok.”

“Expensive desserts but good. I love the durian and caramelized croissant.”

“We were visitinf Bothell WA and I was looking for recommendations for a good veg biryani from Google Maps.. going through the rating and some reviews, I decided to visit this place.. parking is a bit small and from outside the restaurant is not appealing.. there were some seats inside for dine in . Location wise it is good.

being in NJ where the Indian food is really good, I hoped a similar experience here.. and they didn’t disappoint .. the food here was good and the portions were good too .. I was looking for some veg, biryani options and saw gutti venkaya biryani.. I’ve never had that before and tried it first time . Woooow .. it was good . Make sure you mix the biryani well before eating… from top, you will just see white rice but all the Masala is at the bottom.. loved it.. mixed kadai was ok. Could have been slightly spicier . Naan and kadai went well.

Overall a good experience. 4 stars . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I don’t know where to start… the food was AMAZING!! I went on the grand opening day and just happened to be the first customer.. staff was SUPER helpful and extremely kind!! i tried half the menu short ribs, lamb chops, chicken tender and the whole chicken! everything turned out to be amazing!! the best part about all of this is all the meat is 100% Zabiha Halal Certified!!! We will be back tomorrow to try the other half!! Wish i was able to give 10 stars!!!”

“Ive been coming here for a while, and its a great cozy spot here in the heart of downtown bothell! the staff are always so lovely and i always enjoy the time i spend here!”

“The staff were friendly and helpful. After we ordered our entrees they brought us a salad and a small appetizer.
My grandchild (16) had the Tteokbokki, I had the L.A. Kalbi. We both rated our entrees 5/5. Atmosphere is extremely cozy and welcoming. Will be back.”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Aroma Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the ambience set the perfect tone—warm, inviting, and beautifully decorated. The food was exceptional with a wide variety of flavorful dishes to choose from. Every item we tried was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The kabab platter, whole fish, and biryani are must-tries—they were packed with flavor and beautifully presented. There’s truly something for everyone here, including a fantastic selection of mocktails that the whole family can enjoy. What really elevated our visit was the top-notch customer service. The staff was attentive, courteous, and made us feel very welcome. They went above and beyond to ensure our Mother’s Day celebration was special and memorable. I highly recommend it for an enjoyable meal. Don’t miss it!”
