1. The Breakfast Club

Reviewed By Don H - Kirkland, Washington
While in Moscow for a university function, we needed a place to meet some friends and have breakfast. This restaurant was busy and worth the short wait. We had traditional foods for breakfast, all were prepared excellently. Wait-staff was professional and efficient.
2. Sangria Grille
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 267 reviews
Reviewed By D0bby - N. Idaho
I was with a party of 11 who dined at Sangria Grille tonight. Among the group, 3 of us are vegan. We truly appreciated our attentive server, Elysia (sorry I am not sure that is spelled correctly), who was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, accurate with taking all of our orders and efficient. The food, as usual, was excellent - tasty, hot, plentiful and with as many locally sourced ingredients as are available on the Palouse this time of year. I love their board showing which ingredients have been purchased from local farmers - most of whom we know from the farmer's market.
The restaurant was not busy, mostly owing to both nearby universities being on Thanksgiving break and a major football game being played away. We were set up in the bar area which was perfect for our group. We felt slightly private back there which was great for our diverse family group. We were laughing a lot so hopefully our location did not impact the other diners.
For those who don't know, this restaurant has a policy of wait staff not accepting tips AT ALL but an extra 18% is added to the bill. The service was so good that we would have tipped 20% so 18% was fine with us.
Looking back I am surprised I haven't reviewed them before as I have eaten here a number of times and will continue to do so. It's a great spot for delicious, local sourced, interesting food!
3. Maialina Pizzeria Napoletana
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 155 reviews
Reviewed By GrampaTim - Trabuco Canyon, California
When it comes to pizza, thin crust is absolutely my preference, and Maialina offers a wide variety of options. We had a large group of 11 people, on a cold winters night, and yet they accommodated us. We ordered a variety of pizzas and salads, and enjoyed an excellent meal in a very comfortable setting. I can easily recommend this beautiful establishment for anyone. They also have a wide selection of wines and some other menu options.
4. La Casa Lopez
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Debbie M - Michigan
I go out for lunch almost every day. I love the food at Casa Lopez. But importantly, they treat solo diners just wonderfully. Other restaurants in this town - not so much. Some ignore you while waiting for a table or once you're seated, one place sticks single diners in the back room (my least favorite place in that restaurant). Lots of horror stories, actually, about solo dining in Moscow. BUT NOT AT LA CASA LOPEZ. I've been here alone a handful of times and in groups at other times. The service is always impeccable. Add to that the great food and drink, and this is my go-to spot.
5. Mikey`s Greek Gyros
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 90 reviews
Reviewed By ExploringLively - Atlanta, Georgia
Mikey's is always worth a visit when we visit Moscow - as a Moscow native that no longer lives in the area, we always crave the gyros from here. The price is perfect, staff is always friendly.
6. Nectar Restaurant and Wine
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 98 reviews
Reviewed By Dennis B - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
A cute small restaurant in Moscow. Arrived with two couples and were promptly seated. Steelhead, Meatloaf and the prime beef were all perfect. My black rice in brown butter was intense and superb. Our server was slightly inexperienced or maybe just nervous but she still did a good job. Parking is difficult and seating is limited but this restaurant is worth every cent. Thank you!

French/American fusion Brunch and Dinner cafe

I frequently eat at Bloom and we are never disappointed! Everything seems to be made from scratch and the coffee is something to rave about!?
8. Gambino's

Pizza, Pasta, Sandwiches, Salads, Gelato, Full Bar, Tv's, And Banquet Room.
Reviewed By Booth12 - Pullman, Washington
While Gambino's is serving great pasta, their claim to fame is the pizza. They have large selection of house combinations. You can also order your own mix of toppings. For real treat, order one of their deep dish. When served, cheese actually oozes out between the slices.
This is a must place to eat when in Moscow
9. Lodgepole
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 60 reviews
Reviewed By Lyn B - Logan, Utah
First time in Moscow. This place was recommended, but it wasn’t all that. My husband ordered the ribeye. It was prepared appropriately medium rare, but lacked flavor and was full of gristle. I ordered the pork tostadas from the small plates because full entrees are always too much, but I definitely left feeling hungry. Our friends shared a pasta dish that they enjoyed. Probably won’t return.
10. Moscow Food Co Op Deli
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 63 reviews
Reviewed By Mark D - Weatherford, Texas
The deli is a great place to grab a bite, and there are plenty of excellent food choices here, as well as unique items to take home. This is far better than most Whole Food clones, and a much better atmosphere. Stop in and check it out!
