What People Are Saying About Hot Dish

In Short
Tables covered in butcher paper with a side of crayons let adults have as much fun as their kids at this neighborhood diner, serving upscale comfort food to a local crowd. Paintings from Northwest artists add color to the creamy walls; black booths enhance the snappy atmosphere. Food spans from breakfast to dinner, from oatmeal with lemon curd, creme fraiche and dried cranberries to a vanilla-glazed smoked pork chop with apple compote.

The people of the Hot Dish are friendly. You get a definite sense of a local place. The lunch was served fast and it was excellent. Make sure you take a little extra time to find parking.

I took my mother and little sibilings to Hot Dish for Mother's Day. The ambiance of the restraunt was nice and they were understanding when we had to change our reservation to a later time. They only make so much of each dish and when they run out they take it off the menu. I had the vanilla apricot pork chips and it was okay.. I also had a bite of the fried chicken which was amazing. The kids had fun drawing in the bathrooms with chalk and on the table cloths with crayons. Parking could be difficult if you go at the wrong time . Overall I would recommend it for a family dinner.. but again go early so you are not left three menu items to choose from.

A friend recommended me to Hot Dish when it had just opened. It wasn't until an evening last winter, lost in Ravenna, when my partner and I actually stumbled upon it. We couldn't find a place to eat that seemed appetizing, or that we agreed on. We saw Hot Dish's cheery sign and thought it must be time to try it. I found the atmosphere to be really comfortable; hip and clean while still accessible and family friendly. After happily noshing on Central Bakery's Rosemary Soudrough, we were ready to order. I had the Buttermilk Fried Chicken and my parther had the Vanilla Glazed Pork Chop, which he has ordered (and devoured) every time since! For a while, we were going every other Saturday (even though we live in Bellevue). I have tried other things on the dinner menu, including their breakfast menu. While I personally wouldn't recommend the Pot-Roast, I would highly recommend the Gingerbread Pancakes, Pork Chop, Buttermilk Chicken, and Carrot Cake. My overall impression is that the food is always good--maybe not exactly how i would've done it--but consistently integrous, wholesome, and interesting. Plus, I've never left hungry; the portions are more than enough! And don't miss out on daily the $3 drink special.
