Had a date night and dined at the Alder Wood Bistro and Woodfired Pizza. Out standing food, wonderfull friendly staff, and quaint atmosphere. If you’re looking for something special in Sequim. or surrounding area, MAKE a reservation! Highly recommended. We enjoyed the duck. Next time, the pizza!

Always spectacular service here at Alderwood. Our waitress/bartender Emily was amazing! Went for dinner and everything was fabulous, even with no reservation and with how busy they were we got a seat within a few minutes. Beautiful local art covers the walls, very atmospheric. It looked like there was also very nice outdoor seating. For drinks we did the Lavender Lemonade and the Sequim Lemon Drop. Both are made with local lavender syrup and in-house pea flower syrup. Super yummy, the cocktail was just the right strength and beautifully presented. For food we started with the Fried Calamari, it was very crispy, and came with super yummy pickled peppers. A very unique and tasty flavor combination. Then for our meals we got the 3-piece Fish and Chips and the Steak Frite. The fish was super crispy and nice meaty pieces. The French fries were amazing so crispy on the outside, still tender and potato-y on the inside. The Steak Frite came with a choice of butter and I got the Umami-kimchi, it also came with roasted veggies and French Fries. The steak was super tender, melted in my mouth. The roasted veggies were a variety of interesting things. Some of which I’m sure I’ve never tried before, but all super tasty. The Sicilian Pizza was delicious. Super crispy fire roasted crust and sweet and delicious toppings. Overall a very fresh and elevated experience of flavors.

Thank you Morgan for helping us with the food takeout today and still trying to find a way to get us a in dining option with the host.
Loved the vegan and vegetarian recommendations – the pana cota, carrot cake, vegan pizza, and the vegetarian plate.
Thank you for offering the utensils and chilli powder for the pizza because I had completely forgotten about it.
Food was delicious and thank you so much for your help and awesomeness today!

Fantastic meal out. We came over from Seattle and wanted to give the place a try. We knew what we wanted before we arrived, but did enjoy perusing the menu over an excellent cocktail. I hade the house Manhattan, top notch I might add, y frendhad an excellent whiskey sour. We had their Sicilian pizza on a wood fired sourdough crust. I figured it was at individual small pizza but pleasantly surprised that it was a hearty 14 inch pizza. We split a pound of their wood fired mussels served with their focaccia, also sourdough. We had to order aside of their housemade kimchi because it didn’t seem relative to the menu. Everything we had was delicious and well presented. Frankly we were surprised of the quality given their low prices. The staff, come on! Everyone was busy, it was hectic. They were awesome, everybody! Friendly from when we walked in. We had no reservation, something they encourage. We lucked out and got seated in the garden dining area within 20 minutes. I can honestly say this is the best meal out in a few years, we both said that. I have a new favorite restaurant for western WA. Oh, our bill was under $100, half what an equivalent experience than I would have gotten in Seattle.

We were in town from Houston, chose this place because it had great reviews and was nearby our hotel. We had no idea we’d be having the best meal during our trip to Washington.
The pizza was one of the best we ever had, and the desserts were great. You could tell everything was homemade and all the ingredients were fresh. Our server Libby was amazing, and the atmosphere was cozy and friendly.
We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone nearby.

This is a very cozy space, with a homey atmosphere that is very warm and inviting. The service was excellent, we were sat with no reservation on an evening when there was only one table left. So we felt quite lucky. The food was hands down amazing. We did somewhat of a wild mushroom extravaganza, and not a single dish disappointed. We even bought a pizza to go we were so impressed. The carrot cake and the cheesecake were so good, not too sweet but still very flavorful and delicious. Overall it was a 10/10 experience. The next time we’re around the Olympic National Park we’ll make sure to reserve a table so we can ensure we have a fantastic meal.

Loved everything about this place! Our experience was excellent from start to finish. All the food was phenomenal (we had the Brie app, meatloaf, pizza, and the lemon pie dessert), the atmosphere in the garden was perfect, and our server (Libby, I think) was great! Highly recommend but you will definitely need a reservation. We learned that the first night we tried to get in.

The overall experience is almost perfect except a very tiny flaw of my steak side( which I will mention later).
The appetizer fried calamari is very well cooked with crispy outer and juicy inside, very delicious. Cocktails are lavender special, not bad.
The steak (medium rare) is pretty much the best one I had in the US till now, which I highly recommend for a taste, both texture and taste are perfect. The steak itself is flawless I have to say, but the only little tiny defect is the steak is mixed with potato mashes, making it a little bit cloying when enjoyed the steak.
At last, overall experience over my expectation, and the environment is very good too. I love the small garden here with real fire stove. Will definitely come back when visit Olympic National Park next time.
P.S: This is a local restaurant on Tock platform, which earns you x10 pts by using your Chase Sapphire Reserve. But if you want to support the local small business, use cash. HTH!

We had an incredible meal at Alder Wood Bistro in Sequim. The menu was so tempting – we wanted to order it all! The seasonal salad blew us away – everything was so in-season and at its peak of summer deliciousness.
The cedar plank salmon & wood-fired vegetables had us savoring every bite and seeking out every last morsel on the plate! We were too full to sample dessert … but we’ll be back!
The team hosting & serving was warm, professional, and provided a welcoming and fun atmosphere. This is not a stuffy restaurant, but its food rivals, if not surpasses, the most expensive restaurants we’ve been to in Seattle. Definitely make a reservation and enjoy a special meal here 🙂
