Good news: We’ve reached the point in the year where we can all agree those diet-related New Year’s resolutions we made were a little unrealistic, and there’s also still plenty of 2018 left to enjoy. That means treating yourself to a few meals at some of Washington’s hot spots and iconic eateries.

Since there are (almost) 10 months of 2018 left, we chose 10 tasty restaurants you should try before New Year’s Eve. Bon appétit!

Considering JuneBaby has been dubbed one of the best restaurants in the entire nation, it's safe to say that it's definitely worth trying... especially on Fried Chicken Dinner Sunday, if you can get a seat.

The Yakima dining scene has had some exciting new additions in recent years, and Crafted just might be the best one of them all. The fresh, local food here is delicious.

Located at Crystal Mountain Resort, Summit House is awesome... and not just because you can only get there by gondola.

If you've never stopped by this iconic and incredibly unique eatery in Spokane, you owe it to yourself to try a tasty burger and a shake or a sundae.

The Pink Door is the definition of a hidden gem — it's located in Pike Place Market's Post Alley, behind an actual pink door. The restaurant recently completed a beautiful renovation, but the Italian entrees and seafood (as well as the nightly performers) are just as amazing as ever.
9. The Vin du Lac Winery, 105 Hwy 150, Chelan

We recommend visiting Vin Du Lac on a clear autumn day when the restaurant is surrounded by the most stunning fall colors. But rest assured, your meal will be scrumptious any time of year.
10. Willows Inn, Lummi Island

Enjoying the multi-course meal experience at Washington’s most remote restaurant will definitely take some advanced planning and saving. But it's truly an experience like no other, and if you love local food, you'll never forget your meal here.

 

We really do have some incredible restaurants here in Washington. This summer, treat yourself to some rooftop dining.
