Absolutely loved the salmon panini with the house salad! I didn’t get a dessert but they looked amazing and really complemented the shop. I’ll definitely be making this one of my regular stops!
The food was fresh and cooked to perfection
Super cute refinished restaurant. Kid friendly. Paninis were delicious, and the smoked salmon chowder was out of this world!
Great food and service
Some of the best food in Lewis County! Flavors are top notch, staff is super friendly in a very clean and comfortable environment. My favorite is the Mac and Cheese with the Smoked Pork. Thank you for all your hard work, Danielle and Frank! You guys are rocking it!
I could literally live off the salmon chowder alone…but, then I would miss out on the absolutely divine brisket, and their mac & cheesy heaven, oh - and the salmon bagel is lovely too…okay - it’s ALL really good!Served in generous portions and at a very fair price, the Smokehouse is a great place to bring friends. The service is warm, welcoming and definitely makes you want to come back and try some of the other tasty things on their menu.They also feature an artisans’ market where you can find all kinds of wonderful things for gifts (or for keeping for yourself!😁) from local makers and artists. So come support this lovely local business!
Truly the best smoked salmon I've had in a while! Stopped in yesterday for first time and talked with owner. My family enjoyed this morning the spread with smoked salmon. Great job on the flavor profile!!!!
Great food and awesome service! The salmon chowder is is amazing! This is a must stop.
I LOVE having this business on market street! It’s my go to lunch spot after the farmers market.
Best pulled pork sandwich ever. I’m a bit of a pulled pork connoisseur. I’ve even smoked my own. I can’t come close to the amazing flavor delivered by these guys. I’LL BE BACK!!!
The smoked salmon clam chowder was incredible and everything else I had was very good, large portions. Also owner was very nice
Very good, very nice👌 Salmon chowder was the best, very good smoked meats. Really cool market
We stopped into town on our way North and found this place. Great food and really friendly owners.
Very nice experience! Great portions. Gluten free bagel available. I had the smokehouse baked potato. Fantastic!
Some seriously amazing food here, great flavor, beautifully crafted dishes, and a fair price. This pulled pork can hang with the best of them in Texas in my opinion.The servers were very welcoming and friendly, with a great atmosphere and cool gifts to shop after eating.Now I have to bring the family back to eat again!
Food here is incredible. Smoked salmon is easily the best I've ever had no doubt. The bratwurst was so tasty. And service is spot on. Will definitely recommend and return for sure. 🙂
Awesome pulled pork! And the salmon chowder is soo good!
The smoked salmon panini here is seriously amazing!! The folks working there were super friendly as well. Definitely plan to return next time we’re in the area.
This locally owned restaurant rose above all of my expectations! We recently visited for the first time when my MIL & FIL came to visit. My fiancé and his mom and stepdad LOVE salmon, however I do not. All four of us were extremely pleased with our dinner choices (something for all). The very sweet owners (husband and wife) were great. The wife was our server and very friendly and the husband actually did the entire remodel of the place himself (it's a gorgeous, roomy space). I cannot recommend this local restaurant enough! (Photos show the salmon quiche with pickled onions and the Epic Baker).
My partner and I were driving through the area and wanted a snack. We shared the baked potato and the salmon chowder cup. So glad we did lovely people run this place with incredible food.
I am from out of town and was meeting friends here for lunch. All of us were delighted with the food, service and atmosphere. I had the salmon chowder and it was delicious! My taste buds were very happy. The couple that own and operate this were very personable and you could tell that they are putting their heart and soul into this place.
The best chowder and mac n cheese ever… The smoked salmon is ridiculously goodI totally recommend this place!! Service was exceptional..
Salmon panini, lox and bagel, green salad all excellent. Awesome find in chehalis!! Super friendly
Wonderful food; personable service; and comfortable place for a delicious lunch and leisurely chat with friends! Owners are delightful. Can’t wait to visit again!
If we could give more stars we would! Delicious food amazing service!
Amazing little spot! Great atmosphere with locals in there selling amazing soaps and homemade goods… the service at the smokehouse was fast and friendly, with some amazing smoked fish and smoked cheeses… and their spread… on my goodness out of this world!! Can’t wait for my next visit!
Love this place. The smoked BBQ sandwich was great. Upgraded my combo to the salmon chowder. Wow it hit the spot. Topped it off with some of his smoked salmon from the display case.... I'll be back for sure...m
This restaurant is amazing!! Personally I like the Mac n cheese best but the others are wonderful too!! The service is great too.
Loved every bite at our casual lunch at this new spot. An unexpected gem! Delicious pulled pork sandwich, smoked salmon chowder and smoked salmon panini! Side green salads were so fresh & healthy too. Owner Frank is on site and pride of ownership shines through. Service fast and friendly.
NW Salmon Smokehouse has amazing tastes, smells, and personality. I highly recommend this as an amazing experience sure to be enjoyed.
Amazing Amazing Amazing . Must try the smoked salmon Mac and Cheese! Great food and service. Every bite of lunch was great.
Fantastic food, with friendly staff and amazing owners. Got the pulled pork baked potato and it was the best potato I’ve ever had, the onion sauce is absolutely amazing and my new favorite sauce. Cute little place with lots of unique items as well
I had the salmon panini for the first time today. Oh my! The bread was a perfect buttery crunch for the excellent salmon
I’ve eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. This husband and wife team are fabulous. He does most of the cooking while she does serving. I think it’s great how he’ll come around and talk to tables if he has time to make sure things are alright. The rest of the staff is also helpful and friendly. They are a wonderful addition to downtown Chehalis.
Me and my husband had dinner here when we were visiting the area. They were very accommodating over a dietary restriction I have. The food was great and I especially liked the salmon jerky we got "to go". The atmosphere was quiet, laid back and the staff was friendly. We would definitely visit again if we're ever in the area.
This place was so great! We are visiting from Texas and we absolutely loved all that was offered! The salmon chowder was easily my favorite, but everything was delightful. The service was top notch as well and will definately ve visiting again next time im up this way! 5 stars all around!
The food here is delicious and fresh. Great customer service. Very friendly owner who takes the time to check on us. Local artesian shop with gifts, snacks, and lots of other goodies. Shop local♡
The best experience all around. Absolutely loved their baked potatoes and my daughter loved the kids mac and cheese.
This was our first visit and we were blown away! We live in Tacoma and come to Chehalis occasionally to visit the Sisters Quilt Shop. Right next door I see the smoked salmon sign and was immediately drawn in. Right when you walk in there's a lovely array of local and unique good products, art and home decor, and even goodies for your pup. You definitely want to stay for a bite as their food is phenomenal! We had the smoked salmon quiche, traditional brat, and the smokehouse baked potato. Everything was out of this world! The added bonus is the owners, who doubled as the chef and waitress. Both were very friendly and even stayed a bit late so we could finish our meal before getting back on the road. We will definitely make the drive down to try their other menu items!
I ordered the Salmon Chowder and it was amazing, I 100% recommend everyone to try it out, Great service and hospitality felt very welcomed from the moment I stepped in the door.
The food is amazing and the owners are so sweet. They wait on you and the chef comes out and checks on you. I highly recommend this place.
My husband and I had lunch here for our anniversary. We were very impressed with the flavor of the food. We shared the Epic Potato.....DELIOUS!! I had a cup of chowder on the side. We ordered the Mac n Cheese to go for our daughter. She really enjoyed her dish as well. We will return soon and we encourage everyone to check this place out!! The coffee is excellent too, strong!!
The food was amazing and the staff was awesome! Definitely will be back and will be telling our family and friends about this place!
Service was extremely fast and was delivered quickly after order was placed. Smoked salmon chowder was by far the best of any chowder I’ve had before. The charcuterie board was a great way to taste a little of everything from the smoked salmon dip to the smoked cheese. Their Mac n Cheese was delicious to end the meal. To top off everything, the environment and shopping around thru items that were are locally made was a great feeling. One spot that is worth the drive and will be back again in the future.
The best food ever!!! Highly recommend!!
