“ Food is phenomenal, presentation is magnificent. Service (from hostess, servers, bartenders, everyone) is top notch. The clam chowder mimics that of the northwestern coast of Washington State. Are we still in Missouri? Are you sure? The best part? An entire selection of CRAFT NA COCKTAILS! And they’re extremely affordable, all across the board. This was our fourth out of many visits to come. ”
“ Wow! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. This place radiates excellence! Cozy clean atmosphere with (what looked like) local artwork on the exposed brick walls. Not a ton of seating - and we were asked if we had reservations when we spoke with the hostess, so I think we got lucky getting directly in for a table of 2 on a Friday evening. Our waiter Chris was incredible. He was timely, personable, and gave just the right amount of attentiveness. The food was insanely good- even though we had a bit of an emergency and ended up having to take our food to go, we took one bite of everything before boxing it up to finish later at home. We had Spinach Artichoke dip for an appetizer, Seafood Stuffed Chicken, and the Mac and Cheese entree. ( Water and a sweet tea) All for a great price too! I want to try EVERYTHING! This will be a new regular stop for us when we pass through! The only thing I would say is the sweet tea is mediocre - a little strong, and not quite sweet enough. Not the BEST but definitely not the worst I've had either. ”
“ From the moment we sat down, Titled Skillet delivered one unforgettable bite after another! We kicked things off with the crawfish bread app—10 outta 10! Creamy, cheesy, spicy perfection. It was the perfect way to start the meal. Paired with the crispy fried pickles, creamy dill sauce, and that insane fried cheese, the appetizers alone could’ve been the whole meal. Each bite was fried to golden, seasoned perfection! But then came the mains—maple bacon brat on a soft pretzel bun? Whole smokes. That thing was a flavor bomb—sweet, smoky, savory, and wrapped in the softest bread ever. The stuffed chicken? Knocked it out of the park. Juicy, flavorful, and comforting in all the best ways. We were stuffed by the end but seriously eyeing that bread pudding... guess we’ll have to come back (and we will). The place was packed, but thanks to our reservation, we walked right in. Pro tip: call ahead! Titled Tavern is worth the hype—flavor, vibes, and service on point. Enjoy life 1 sip, 1 bite and 1 small town at a time! Explore everything! ”
“ WOW! This was our first time and we are so happy we found the Tilted Skillet. We got there very late and they welcomed us and we had one of the best meals ever. The salad is a real salad. The scalloped potatoes are amazing. I had the top sirloin and my hubby had the sword fish. The music was great. We are definitely going back. ”
“ What an awesome find.!! Quaint, warm and cozy atmosphere and decor. Staff are friendly and outgoing. Our server, Tyler was exceptional. Food was top notch, sea bass, stuffed mushrooms, chicken fried chicken. Very good. Nice selections of boubons too , if that's your thing. Will be back often. ”
“ Oh boy! This place is incredible! When I travel to Washington for work it’s a guarantee that I will eat here! Smokehouse burger is a must and the walleye is hands down the best you will find west of the MS river! ”
“ One of our favorite restaurants! Always has been & always will be! Fresh ingredients, homemade dressings, delicious food & drinks! You can't go wrong eating here! Does get busy for dinner, could be a wait BUT so worth it! Always get the mac n cheese for a side! THE BEST MAC YOU'LL EVER HAVE! ”
“ We have been to Tilted Skillet a few times. The food is always fresh and hot and delicious. It is a smaller place and usually very busy so perhaps a reservation should be made for bigger parties but it's definitely a great little gem in Washington! ”
