This has to be one of my favorites! Tucked away below the streets of Spokane you will find this humble yet fancy restaurant with what appears to be comfort food on the menu!?? I love it! Mac n cheese, deviled eggs, and my personal favorite tater tot casserole. The tater tot casserole is made with braised brisket! A must try. This is a great place to eat but make sure you get reservations towards the weekend because they are busy!

1st time at the Gilded Unicorn and we thoroughly enjoyed it! It was during Restaurant Week so it was a 3-course dinner. We both had a Smothered Chicken dish which was fabulous! Bocce Roll appetizer was the best-tasting bread I have ever put in my mouth. And ended with an Orange Carrot Cardamom Doughnut Hole dessert which was different and delicious. Service was friendly and altogether outstanding!The restaurant itself is in the old "boiler/coal room" of a turn-of-the-century downtown building! Cozy, romantic, historic, comfortable. The Gilded Unicorn has it all!

This was honestly such an amazing experience, the atmosphere is so unique, artsy, and cool. But it’s not just the atmosphere that sold me, it was the service and the food. Our waiter was Bradley and he went above and beyond to accommodate our experience he was so kind and attentive and so fast too. The drinks were so delicious especially their virgin cocktails as somebody who does not drink alcohol. Let alone THE FOOD WAS FANTASTIC. I’ve never had such unique flavoring and presentations. If you go here I would recommend the Bocce Rolls as an appetizer. This place is certainly something else. Thank you ??

My husband and I love traveling to Spokane and supporting local businesses. We popped into the Gilded Unicorn a few times mostly for the atmosphere. The last time we were here the staff was beyond rude. We waited for a good 15 minutes for someone to acknowledge our presence. The bartender seemed irritated we were in his eyesight. We waited patiently, trying to be understanding (everyone has a bad day). It wasn't busy which made it even more awkward. We used to recommend this place to our friends visiting Spokane, we won't be recommending this place in the future.

5 stars for drink and ambiance but the food is sub par. Felt like I was eating food from Costco with a crazy mark up.Edit: Attempted to go in tonight for a drink. Was told they couldn't seat us. Not that we needed a table but the bar also had seating open. If you don't want our business again that is fine.

Service was great, duck wings yum, bocce rolls omg, deviled eggs yes, 4 stars is for the Buffalo Mac. Just no, thought I was getting fried Buffalo chicken on top of mac what was served was unseasoned boiled chicken mixed in mac with dry "fried" chicken seasoning, legit flour and spices and a healthy squirt of wing sauce, then topped with shredded pickled carrots??? What in the season of all things holy happened to the yummy dish I thought I was getting that cost $26 dollars. Stop the madness. Felt sick all night from picking at this dish.

The food has a different elevated twist on comfort food...and it's amazing! Been twice, and never disappointed! And the service is always perfect...friendly, efficient and very knowledgeable about the menu and the folks I've talked to are so personable. Big shout out to Alexia who we had at the bar....so awesome to talk to, makes the best old fashioned - which I could've continued to drink all night btw ...and she educated us about local places and we talked about moving here and family...and she just took it all in and just made us feel comfortable. Highly recommend...and ask for Alexia! Tell her the couple from New Hampshire says hi!!

Very cool, old and cozy atmosphere. Very welcoming, I could easily hang out regularly and for long periods. Food and drink were quite tasty. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, they not only knew the menu, but also the history of the building.

Great for the experience, but only if you like flushing money down the toilet. You're basically paying for the location, overpriced glorified bar.

I called in a pickup order for molten chocolate truffle cake for $13.50. I got a small chocolate cake, NO CARmel sauce, and 2 ounces or 4 TBSP of ice cream. What a ripoff.

This place is a gem through and through. The service is impeccable - professional, warm, delightful from the host all the way up the chain. The food is creative and well executed. The space and environment is really interesting, historic, and whimsical. It was my first visit. I had a fabulous time. Highly recommend this place.
