Restaurants in Bothell

“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.”

“First time at this restaurant and will definitely be returning soon! Delicious food and drinks! Acoustics weren't the best, as it was a tad noisy for my liking but overall wonderful experience!”

“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.”

“los tacos de xicama están delicioso”

“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!”

“Great comfort food and very friendly staff!”

“This is by FAR, the best pizza I've ever had. I haven't gone anywhere else for pizza or chicken parm for over 2 years. The staff are very friendly, and the atmosphere is inviting. I absolutely love it here.”

“Ohh macarons is so scrumptious! I recommend them to friends, co-workers, family, and on my community Facebook page! I even brought them on a crosscountry plane for a picnic i was having with old college friends! I appreciate the regular menu (I always get a salted caramel), but I LOVE the rotating weekly flavors and designs! These macarons are a work of art...I'm not kidding, the special Derpy (K-PoP demon hunters character) macaron....well I bought 6: one for my and one each for my friends. One friend refused to eat it for over a week because it was too cute!! The drinks are delicious and the service from the owner and top notch.”

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

“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.”

“spent about $70 for 4 people with burgers, fries, two cones, shake, strips and burgers. good food fast totally worth it.”

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

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

“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.”

“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”

“the best authentic Mexican food in Washington. and the owners are super friendly,”

“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.”

“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!”

“We order here pretty regularly. The food is always good. The service is fast.

But tonight was special. Placing my order over the phone was exceptionally easy. I had a couple of things that were a little bit customized. I went and picked up my food and it was ready as expected. Every customization was perfect. And the kicker? The portions were a little bigger than usual.

Someone is getting something very right at Rama House. Thanks for the easy, delicious dinner!”

“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.”

“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!”

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

“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!”

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

“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 food, but if you order a big turkey sandwich it is messy. Too wet. Burgers has a good bun and fries are a 5 star. they let you modify orders to your liking and only gor wrong order twice. Atmosphere is your car. I wish they had inside dining.”

“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.”

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

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

“Best people. Best food!😀”

“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.”

“We usually go to the Kirkland location but today we decided to stop the Ivars in Bothell and everything was a five star, the fresh crisp fish, crisp fries, very courteous and engaged cashier girl, she even gave us two kids crackers AND brought us hand wipes to our table. The place is clean. It was very sweet.”

“I'm a frequent flier here, love the coffee and the staff. Drive thru times are never very long, baristas are always all smiles and the ham and white cheddar croissant may be the best dang sandwich to exist.
If you give mercury a shot, you may not ever go back to where you used to go before.”

“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.”

“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 😎”

“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!”

“Seoul Bowl is a great spot for a quick, fresh meal. The bowls are fully customizable with your choice of protein, lots of toppings, and plenty of sauces to mix and match. We usually order ahead and it’s almost always ready right when we get there to pick it up. It’s a solid option when you want something different and aren’t in the mood for Mexican or a poke bowl.”

“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”

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

“My family and I are from Texas and this brunch was a little taste of home. We tried the Miss Texas (the full size version is almost enough for 2 people), the Texas Heat (really good smoked meat and large portion on a toasted bagel), avocado toast (a little smaller portion but loaded with quality toppings), Parmesan biscuit, and banana bread. All of the food was really good and the coffee was great too. The staff is extremely friendly and very attentive (just like back in Texas). The only downside is that there’s not a ton of room to dine in but you can always grab it to-go and head to the picnic tables at a local park. We’ll definitely be back!”

“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!”

“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!”

“best meal while in Seattle area.”

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

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

“I love this place! I go here a lot for lunch and I always get one order of egg rolls, and by now the owners know my order. They are very kind, and coming here always makes my day better! The food is also great :D highly recommend!”

“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!”

“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.”

“A good place to have a casual lunch meeting friends. Standard Korea food and services. Nothing special, but tasty including the free side dishes (banchan). Staff is friendly and environment is quite for chatting with people.”

“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!”

“Love the gyros!! The best service!!”

“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”

“You will find happy faces here!”

“Really sweet people that work here!! The food is always fresh and full of flavor. I really love the sauces that are made for the salmon teriyaki and chicken teriyaki. Can't wait to try more of the menu!”

“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)”

“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!”

“I visit NW Espresso almost every morning, and it has truly become one of my favorite parts of the day. The coffee is always wonderful, but what stands out most is how kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming everyone who works there is. As someone a bit older, I’ll say all the different coffee drinks and names can be confusing, but the girls there are so patient in helping me find a drink that is absolutely perfect for my taste. Their knowledge of coffee is very impressive, and it’s clear they take pride in what they do. I believe two of the baristas are Miliana and Marissa, if I have their names right, and both are just lovely. They always greet me warmly, remember my order, and genuinely make each customer feel valued. I’ve also had the pleasure of meeting the owner a few times, I am unsure of her name though, she is just the sweetest young woman who is personable, and clearly someone who cares very much about her business and customers. I do wish they expanded the snacks and treats to biscottis or scones, otherwise the muffin tops are very fresh.”

“The best coffee in the area and as my personal benchmark when I have other place's coffee. The baristas working there are always friendly and work hard to get our orders done quickly and correctly. We go there every Friday morning my doggie and they have little dog biscuits available at the walkup. The baristas are always kind and welcoming.”

“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”

“Love this place! Most of the Baristas are really nice! They get to know you really fast and greet you by name. The coffee drink comes out great 95% of the time depending on the barista and if their new!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Good food, excellent, friendly service, and great atmosphere. I’d give the food 4.5, as my crab cakes could have been crispier. However, the other member of my party loved the crab and shrimp roll. The fries were also very good. Definitely recommend a visit.”

“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 comfort food and very friendly staff!”

“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!!”

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

“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!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Our family loves coming to this Applebee's location. Every time we come, the food is fantastic.
Today, however, the service was OUTSTANDING!.
Our server, Flor, was extremely nice, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. She's such a sweetheart.
The manager also stopped by a couple times to check in, and was very kind as well.
THANK YOU!”

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

“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 . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We had a first time server last night. Wanted to say how well she did with us 9 people. Kept us updated on our order and was attentive to the kids, especially the birthday boy. Gave him a sundae! Very nice and we will be back!”

“I visit this restaurant regularly and each time, the staff treats us to an excellent meal. The atmosphere is relaxing, with seating spread out such that family gatherings and solo/duo diners are accomodated well. Each time we are treated to beautifully plated banchan which explore new flavors. Not knowing whats in store for us is a delight and is a pull which keeps me and my family coming back to see what is new. This is a Bothell gem, with owners who clearly care about sharing their culinary creations with guests like they are part of the family.”

“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!!!”

“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!”
