Our Story
A Tradition of Gathering Around Great Food
In 1998, Chef Maria Rossi opened a tiny trattoria with nothing but her grandmother's recipes and a belief that food should bring people together. What began as a 20-seat kitchen has grown into three distinctive locations, each carrying forward that same spirit of warmth and generosity.

Visit Us
Three Locations, One Family
Each of our restaurants offers a unique dining experience while staying true to The Hearth's philosophy of warmth, quality, and community.
Where It All Began
Downtown
Our original location in the heart of the city. Intimate, warm, and full of the spirit that started it all. The exposed brick walls and candlelit tables create the perfect setting for an unforgettable meal.
Flavors by the Sea
Waterfront
Perched along the harbor, our waterfront location offers panoramic water views and a seafood-focused menu that celebrates the Pacific Northwest's bountiful coast.
From Rooftop to Table
Garden
Our newest concept in the arts district features a rooftop herb garden, open kitchen, and a plant-forward menu that proves vegetables can be the star of any plate.
What Our Guests Say
Stories from Our Table
Nothing means more to us than the memories our guests take home.
“The braised short rib literally melted in my mouth. This is exactly the kind of place that makes you forget time exists.”

“We held our anniversary dinner at the waterfront location. The sunset, the oysters, the service — perfection from start to finish.”
Michael & Karen T.
Waterfront Location
“As a vegetarian, I rarely feel like the star of the show at restaurants. The Hearth Garden changed that completely. Every dish was extraordinary.”
Priya K.

“The tiramisu alone is worth the trip. But the whole experience — the ambiance, the warmth of the staff, the attention to detail — is what keeps us coming back.”
