Description: It's difficult to say what is most appealing about the Barking Frog - the food, the wine, the atmosphere. All of the above earned this casual bistro featuring country fresh Northwest cuisine rave reviews. Honors have included "Restaurant of the Year", "Most Innovative Wine List" and "Wine Grand Award" awards, presented by the Washington Wine Commission. Delectable dishes entice guests to linger in the light-filled dining room or to gather around the fireplace. While in the summer, lunch and dinner are served in the courtyard. Wine tasting in Fireside Cellars - Many wineries are open for public tastings, others are not. However, there is one place where you can relax with friends and fellow guests to taste the finest that Woodinville Wine Country has to offer - Fireside Cellars at Willows Lodge. Join us from 4PM-11PM Sunday-Thursday and 4PM-12AM Friday and Saturday.On weekends, the sweet smell of crepes fills the air as the Fireside Cellars is now open and offers both sweet and savory crepes along with oatmeal, pastries and your favorite coffee/espresso. Open Saturdays and Sundays from 8AM-1PM.

We went here for lunch to celebrate my husband's grad school graduation. At first we were a little disappointed that on a Saturday at 1:30 PM they only offered brunch. We had looked at the menu online and we were looking forward to some items that weren't on the brunch menu. Still - there were some yummy things to choose... More

Yes, a unique name but the food is over the top. Went here for their brunch menu on a Saturday in May and the offerings and food was better than expected. You have to get a basket of the beignets! I had the Croque Madam and it was excellent - made on very fresh bread and fried up perfectly. Had... More

The food is packed with flavor and originality. I tried this during Seattle restaurant week and got great value for the price ($25 for 3 course meal, excluding drinks). I would certainly return and pay full price. Also, great for breakfast if you're staying across the driveway at the Willow Lodge.

We stayed at Willows Resort and enjoyed the food from the Barking Frog in their Fireside Lounge. They do a great job on the food, however we went to the Barking Frog for breakfast one morning and almost got up and left before the food arrived. It took a very long time to get the blueberry pancakes that we ordered.... More

The Grand Marnier Prawns were just out of this world. We both had them. We did share the main plate (salmon) because we typically don´t each too much for dinner, and that is a very nice detail about this restaurant because not all of them do that. The salmon was very good as well, as was the dessert. Would certainly... More

I can't get enough of the Grand Marnier prawns. Their salads are fresh and not overdressed. I eat here several times a year and have never had a bad meal.

Made reservations for 7:15 on a Friday evening and was promptly seated as soon as we arrived. We were expecting a cozier/more intimate atmosphere however the room was very open, tables close together, and the tables were pretty long so we had to talk louder than normal. The bread and spreads were tasty and the refilled it quickly when we... More

We arrived at lunch time and checked in across the lane at Willow'sLodge. The Caesar was a very creative starter with spicy bean, cheese, bacon and meat stick. It was really salty and therefore hard to enjoy. Too bad because it was a lot of fun! The entrees were delicious and we were satisfied enough that we kept our previously... More

Wine paring with the dinner menu, plus $18 was a great option. We chose the restaurant for our anniversary. We mentioned for our special evening in advance when we reserved but there was no special service. We will never use the restaurant for our special occasion.
