There’s A Delicious Restaurant Hiding Inside This Old Washington Barn That’s Begging For A Visit

Would you believe one of the most outstanding restaurants in Washington is located in an old dairy barn from the 1920s? It's true. Russell's Restaurant is located in Bothell, and if you've never heard of it, we'll give you plenty of delicious reasons to go.

Russell's is located at 3305 Monte Villa Parkway in Bothell.

The barn has been lovingly renovated, and it looks downright charming.

The interior is a perfect combination of classic and modern, elegant and rustic.

The space is warm and inviting.

The chef and owner, Russell Dean Lowell, has won several awards and has been listed as one of the country's top caterers.

He strives to create food that people will remember, and it's safe to say he succeeds.

The cuisine here is exquisite.

The menu is locally inspired, using ingredients mainly grown in the Pacific Northwest.

The filet mignon and risotto are legendary.

But no matter what you order here, you'll be impressed.

Russell's often hosts local wine dinners as it's conveniently located next to Woodinville wine country.

As you can imagine, the food, service and ambiance are all top notch.

You can even have your wedding reception (and ceremony!) or other private event here and enjoy the amazing catering.

Vineyard tables and the vaulted ceilings of the barn look perfect together.

But as amazing as the ambiance is, the food is always the star of the show.

Russell is one of the most sought after chefs in the Pacific Northwest, and he works with an incredible team.

Russell's is open for lunch Monday-Friday from 10:00 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. and dinner Tuesday - Sunday.

There's also a great happy hour in the bar area from Tuesday-Saturday, 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

Ambiance is so important when it comes to fine dining. For another once-in-a-lifetime experience, enjoy a special occasion meal at Canlis.
