Crafted

My friends had tried the 7-course chef's menu at this restaurant before and thought it was amazing, so even though it was a bit out of the way for our weekend road trip, they brought me here specifically. And it was indeed incredibly delicious! My friends were also pleasantly surprised to find that every dish, except for the dessert, was different from what they had before, but just as delicious! The seafood appetizers were extremely fresh, the steak was cooked to perfection, and the pasta and fish were uniquely and wonderfully seasoned. We loved and enjoyed every single dish! The dessert was a bit too sweet for me, but it was beautifully presented with a unique fragrance. The price is very affordable for fine dining. We were joking that you can only have the two appetizers for the same price & quality in Seattle. I will definitely come back, and I highly recommend it to anyone who has the chance to pass by! Also the service was so great, especially after we had some bad experiences in other restaurants during our road trip...

An absolute experience above the rest. If you live in Yakima and haven't visited Crafted, you are missing out. If you are visiting Yakima and Crafted isn't on your list, I recommend adding it. The location is easy to get to. Close to the downtown Yakima hotels. A greeting with a smile as you come in setting the mood for a welcoming dining experience. This will be a part of your visit that you won't soon forget. The changing menu gives it the fresh new taste that you can always come to expect that something amazing is awaiting you. Seated at the bar top by the kitchen I was able to watch how the kitchen team worked so well together to craft each dish. Taking passion in what they do. Striking up conversation with you, making you feel at home. The first dish was the scallops. Perfectly cooked. I have never pictured scallops as a fall dish, but after the presentation and the flavors packed into it, I can't think of fall now without thinking of the savory pine nuts paired with the scallops. Drinks were perfectly paired and followed by the chocoflan. The staff giving recommendations that didn't disappoint. You can feel the environment there is one that they enjoy being in and each of them treated me with the friendliest demeanor. Not feeling that I was just being assigned to one person and feeling a cold attitude from the rest. No. Here they all worked together to create a welcoming atmosphere to pair with the amazing food. I look forward to coming again and trying what other flavor packed dishes they come up with.

Wow! If you're anywhere near Yakima, take the opportunity to visit Crafted. Excellent sharing menu, delicious cocktails, and amazing service. So much fun.

While staying in the Quincy/George area we decided to make the 75 minutes drive to Yakima on the recommendation of friends. Oh my word - what a great experience. Yakima is so lucky to have Crafted in their city. The ambiance, the food, the drinks, the service (thanks for making it a great night for us, Noah!), the dessert, everything was amazing. I will go here again and again whenever I'm anywhere near Yakima. So good!
