Open since 2011, Oto Sushi is a relatively new addition to the Kirkland, Washington dining scene that's made a big splash in its short tenure. Of course, Oto Sushi did have some advantages: its chef-owner learned the art of sushi in the California Bay Area, before taking his talents to the Seattle suburbs. And Kirkland diners are glad he did! Don't be misled by the simple decor: the food here is gorgeous, and full of complex and carefully curated flavors. From its tuna and salmon presentations to more exotic fish, Oto Sushi delights diners. Complementing the food is Oto Sushi's attentive service, which will make you feel welcome throughout your meal. Seeking Japanese cuisine in Kirkland? Oto Sushi might be one of the best spots in town.

This homey, comfortable café located in Kirkland’s bustling Rose Hill neighborhood has earned a real reputation for itself as one of the city’s most satisfying places to grab a bite to eat. Opened in 2009, this is truly a family business – owner Greg Waham employs lots of “cousins” to wait tables, wash dishes, and more. After your meal here, you’ll feel like family too. Although they serve food all day, regulars know that breakfast is where the kitchen really shines. Their potato pancakes are spectacular – thin, crispy and incredibly flavorful, served with delicious applesauce. Omelettes are a popular choice, with the prime rib version stuffed full of amazingly tender, perfectly-seasoned meat. The prime rib is available in a number of other versions, including a great egg scramble. If you’re looking for a little Southern flavor, their chicken-fried steak is also incredible. Portions are massive and prices are very reasonable, so bring the whole family.
