Best Romantic Restaurants in Northgate

From start to finish, our anniversary dinner at Cedar + Elm was nothing short of extraordinary. Opting for the chef’s tasting menu, we were treated to a stunning progression of courses that showcased impeccable technique, creativity, and the finest ingredients. Each dish was perfectly balanced in flavor and beautifully presented. The wine pairings were equally impressive, thoughtfully curated to enhance every dish and elevate the entire dining experience. Our favorites included the starter crab bites, the sliced steak course, and the dessert to finish. What truly set the night apart, however, was the outstanding service. Our dining staff went above and beyond to ensure our anniversary was celebrated in the most memorable way. From personalized touches to warm and attentive hospitality, we felt genuinely cared for throughout the evening. The attention to detail and passion from the staff were evident in every aspect of the experience. Chef Luke took the time to show us the kitchen hearth and explain how he came to be here at Cedar + Elm. If you’re looking for an exceptional culinary journey, Cedar + Elm delivers on every level. We left feeling not only satisfied but truly inspired by the level of care and craftsmanship that went into every course. We can’t wait to return for another dinner service!

Every dish was excellent, but we especially enjoyed the fish curry. We were excited to try the cocktails. My daiquiri was delicious, but we sent back the drink with the brie washed rye. A little too funky for us but the Manhattan that replaced it was perfect.

San Fermo is our favorite place to go in Ballard for a romantic date night. We love the food and the atmosphere!

Love this place! I highly recommend it. The food was great!

Great food, we sat in the bar and our server was overwhelmed with taking orders, serving all the people in the bar and bartending for both dining areas—so sometimes the waiting was way longer than it should have been. Overall, great experience!
