Skip breakfast to have enough room to clean your plate!
What a cute place to eat. I ordered the Chicken Enchilada Casserole. Very, very tasty. The salad was terrific too! The waitress was very attentive and brought our order to us promptly. The place was packed - always the sign of a good place to eat. Wish I had the recipe for their Chicken Enchilada Casserole! Oh well, another reason to have lunch there!

Best Restaurant in South King County!
What a delight to have eaten lunch at Bittersweet for many, many years! The true "pearls" of this fine eatery are the head cook and the wait staff. All are totally attentive to customers' needs, and the filled tables at mealtimes show it! Their signature desert "apple crisp" is a marvelous treat, and all main dishes and deserts are prepared on the premises. You can't go wrong here!

Thank you, Bittersweet!    [12 Dec 2003 10:43:57]

Lunch with the Girls
The four of us had lunch on a Saturday afternoon. What great food prepared in their own kitchen, even the salad dressing was home-made. I would recommend this small, cute place to eat to anyone worth the drive.    [12 Feb 2004 14:15:37]

Yes! The food is usually great! The chocolate french silk pie is sinfully rich! But, the service varies according to the color of your skin. I can go by myself or my entire family and never fail to be disrespected. The Bittersweet is absolutely a reflection of a small town mentality that cannot accept much less celebrate diversity. Not any of my friends or family ever feel welcomed in this restaurant and we will never frequent that establishment again.    [30 Aug 2004 18:09:55]

Ambiance, Conversation and Delicious Homemade Food
I have been to Bittersweet a million times and have never had a bad meal yet! The fact that you can still enjoy a homemade meal in a very cute setting while being able to actually hear the conversation that you are having with your lunch partner is amazing...has made me bring countless clients, friends and family there for years. Their Apple Crisp is the best I've had anywhere...bar none...and their Clam Chowder/Homemade bread is a close second...altogether that makes for an absolutely savory meal...thanks, Bittersweet, for not changing your high standards of culinary expertise!    [15 Aug 2006 10:28:00]

Favorite Lunch Place of all-time
I love Bittersweet. I go there whenever I am in Kent. The broccoli pie and Rhubarb Crisp are sensational.
I have always experienced quick and friendly service when visiting this restaurant.    [29 Jun 2008 15:15:27]

You really can't go wrong. Everything is good.
I always have the same problem when I go to Bittersweet: What should I eat? Everything on their menu is delicious. Two of my favorites are the Broccoli Pie and the Chicken Enchilada Casserole. Both are served with a delicious fresh salad and bread. Their desserts a wonderful too.

Always Packed. I guess that's a good thing. It means the food is marvelous and affordable. But if you show up with a party larger than four expect to wait. --There is really no place to wait and this is what makes it uncomfortable. But like I said, the food is great!    [08 Jan 2009 18:19:47]
