Atlas Fare - Wenatchee (WA)

3 /5 Sunshine is a way of life: We went to Atlas Fare a few weeks ago for a special dinner celebration. The entree I was going to order came with coconut rice. As I am on a very low carb diet I asked if they could possibly substitute additional vegetables or any other low-carb option for the rice. The waitress initially told me no but then said she would ask. I explained why I was asking and indicated that any low-Carb alternative would be greatly appreciated trying to make my request as simple as possible. She took the rest of the orders and never came back to indicate whether they could help me out or not. When our meals arrived mine had the coconut rice and the servers said nothing about my request. My meal also came with a small amount of coleslaw. Other members of our partys meals came with some other vegetables along with a starch. While the food was good, it was beyond my comprehension for a $44 meal and a $200 plus bill that they could not find a way to give me two more spoonfuls of coleslaw or some other alternative instead of the coconut rice. I have made this very simple request at countless other restaurants from inexpensive to very expensive and have never had anyone not be able to make this small accommodation. There are many lovely and unique restaurants in Wenatchee to visit and I will not be going back to Atlas Fare because of this. To me, it is absurd that they could not do something for me.

5 /5 Urata Yasuyuki “Mike”: The salmon and paella were both exceptional. Jennys Salad was also great. One of the BEST restaurant Ive been to in WA. Staff was very friendly too.

4 /5 Jeff Close: We had not been here before. Upon walking in, I was immediately comfortable and drawn to the decor and the lighting. Beautiful restaurant and nice dimly lit space - not too dim or too bright like some places. Fantastic service - our server was polite, knowledgeable, and unobtrusive. Now for the food: we ordered the shrimp ceviche, and it was excellent. The entrees were much less interesting, particularly the beef, bourgignon, which was a very strange take on the classic. Rather than being like a stew, it was almost dry pieces of brisket or pot roast. It had good flavor, but was just disappointing when the name suggests getting a hardy beef stew in chilly weather, and disappointing at $43. Nonetheless, I would eat there again and choose differently from the menu.

3 /5 Patricia B: Heard wonderful comments about this place! Overall it was ok, just ok. Ordered an old fashioned drink- fabulous! Five star on that! Wontons were good- different. Chicken risotto was lacking flavor, needed salt but waitress never came back to ask. Shrimp and grits were much tastier. Overall restaurant was hot and smelled like fish. For the price, I don’t think we will be back. Underwhelmed.
