Gone down hill

by ischyrus

I have ate with a group of 4 to 6 friends, monthly to bi-weekly, at Cohos throughout the past year, at least once a month. I like the service I've received and the restaurant has a nice touch.

Their first mistake was to get rid of the Tiramisu for no good reason. A group of us went to Cohos just just for desert. Ever since they got rid of it we have never ordered desert. I guess we are spiteful.

More recently, they stopped giving bread! Seems pretty ridiculous. Now I feel cheated.

Needless to say. Our group is going to start going somewhere else.

• Pros: Parking
• Cons: No desert worth getting, No free bread, Generally a wait to be seated

Great food and Employees

by Trisha007

I love eating at the Coho Cafe!! I like the fact that their food isn't just sesfood! My favorites are the rib appitizer, the steamed clams, they have a very hearty grilled chicken club and tasty coco prawns with a lime dipping sauce. There is fun salads like the Asian chicken or seafood chop. Also I love the yummy deserts aswell, like the berry cobler and lava cake! i love it all and I alway anticipate my return! The staff is friendly and seem to all try really hard to work together as a team. I can always find someone to asnwer my questions, bring bread or any other needs. Plus to top it all of thee is a terrific bar that serves happy hour twice daily. I love this place and admire how hard the staff work here. Those of you who write complaints about a none 5 star experience are the kind of people who don't see the greater good in the efforts put out from these staff members and have different opions on what can be considers as "the perfect meal". Even if the food wasn't the best I ever had, if there staff is friendly and attentive then they deserve more than a fowl tempered degenerate bringing them down. If you haven't seen the movie 'Waiting' then you wouldn't understand... "DONT BE AN A-HOLE TO THE PEOPLE WHO HANDLE YOUR FOOD"

• Pros: friendly staff, great menu, nice seating, welcoming decor
• Cons: none!

excellent food, extremely excellent staff!

by ryancoxx

I went to the Coho Cafe in Redmond last Saturday around 4:30. Honestly, I couldn't be more pleased or impressed. My friend and I were immediately greeted by an extremely friendly hostess, who seemed to go out of her way to make us feel comfortable and accommodated. She even got our drinks started, and later helped serve our meals. Our server was very attentive, but never intrusive. Any and all questions we had were answered with ease, and it was very clear he knew the menu well. We started with the crab tower, and ceviche, which were both refreshing and delicious. I chose the seafood fettuccine, which left me full and satisfied. My friend chose the macadamia prawns from the new promotion, and almost licked the plate clean. The pineapple banana salsa definitely made that dish. The menu has something for absolutely everyone, which is excellent for picky eaters. Our drinks were never empty, and our dinner was timed to the tee. I would definitely consider myself a happy customer. There is a clear sense of teamwork at Coho, and I fully intend to return for the staff alone! It's just an added bonus that the food is delicious and reasonably priced. I fully recommend this restaurant to everyone, unless you've got a hearing problem...because it got fairly noisy. I look forward to my next dining experience there.

• Pros: very friendly staff, delicious food.
• Cons: somewhat noisy.

Preferred Restaurant in Redmond

by MarcyAntonich

My husband and I have been dining at Coho's for many years and can't remember a time we didn't enjoy our dinner, lunch or Sunday Brunch. Comfortable atmosphere. Rarely has the service been anything but outstanding. The menu offers a nice variety of delicous food and good sized portions. We expecially like the Chef's Special's that change with the season. On many occasions the chef will communicate with the guests about their dining experience . Service is great!

Highly Recommend the Coho in Redmond!!

by sethbeth

I have worked at Microsoft for the past three years and this is our weekly restaurant to meet at for one-one-ones, morale events, and with my family. The food is fantastic, the staff is very friendly and engaging, and I can get cheap movie tickets for the Bella Botega Theater as well! I have had few issues in the years I have been going to Coho, and in those instances management quickly stepped in and took care of us, making it is very positive experience. I highly recommend the Coho in Redmond.

Fantastic Restaurant

by Mochi123

5/13 I had a fantastic experience at Coho. I opened the door and was immediately acknowledged by the smiling hostess. She remembered me and said ?Your friend is already here- Let me take you to your table.? I sat down and seconds later the waiter (with a great attitude) came to grab my drink order. Last time I was in, the manager suggested a new dish called the Cevicha Tostada. It is now my favorite dish now. Our drinks were never empty, our waiter was never far away when we needed him and our food was spectacular. Even the manager stopped by to see how the food was!!! This restaurant functions like clockwork. Other employees will fill your drink up even when it is not their table.

A special thank you for making this a GREAT restaurant experience for me, my family and friends?

Denise- amazing customer service skills, great up seller and great problem solver

Todd- great with anticipating customer needs and delivering in a timely fashion (5 star quality service)

Josh ? very professional when waiting tables- good listener

Meredith and Cali- never without a smile and great attitude & team camaraderie

Eric- Always is creating new tasty dishes- keeps the menu fresh

If someone asks me about this restaurant, on a rating of 1-10, I would give them an 11. Actions speak louder than words, and we have been going there for 6 YEARS, roughly 3 times a week!

Thank you Coho!!! Loyal customer #1

• Pros: Service

Love the Coho

by jennasoul101

Highly recommend this place for a great meal and great service. The Coho Cafe is becoming my favorite local restaurant. I recently discovered Coho and have been there four times this month. They have the best Ahi Tuna Tacos but they also have a great selection of fresh fish and interesting dishes. The staff is very friendly, timely and knowledgeable. I can't wait till the weather improves so I can take advantage of their patio dining. I would compare Coho Cafe to a contemporary downtown restaurant BUT you don't have to pay to park and they don't charge $15 for a good martini. Keep up the good work.

• Pros: Great food and service
• Cons: Always busy so a bit noisy

Check you food...

by dweezle37

I had lunch at the Coho Cafe in Redmond on 4/23/08. When my entree arrived, my lettuce had dead gnats on it. The waitress took it away and brought me new lettuce, which also had dead gnats on it! The waitress was less-than apologetic. Check your food carefully if you eat here!
