Trellis has been open since 2019 and Executive Chef Joseph Jackson (who just goes by “Chef Joe”) along with Pastry Chef Caydee Porter always uses fresh, local ingredients from around the Pacific Northwest, and loves changing up the menu to highlight seasonal produce. They’re open every day for both lunch and dinner, and you simply can’t go wrong ordering!
To start, try the Baked Brie appetizer that’s topped with chimichurri and served with fresh rosemary focaccia, or the insanely popular Duck Confit Salad made with a crispy duck leg, sliced apples, candied walnuts and rogue creamery blue cheese crumbles with pinot noir cherry vinaigrette.
For main entrees, you can keep it simple with one of the perfectly crafted sandwiches. Favorites include the French Dip made with roast beef, havarti, pinot noir braised onions, mama lil’s peppers, horseradish aioli and spicy dijonaise on a hoagie roll, or the Short Rib Sandwich that packed with slow braised beef short ribs, havarti, fresh greens, pinot noir braised onions and horseradish aioli on a potato bun.
Other great entrees to try are the Clam Linguine made with leeks, garlic, pancetta, bread crumbs and a creamy white wine broth, or the Steak Frites that comes with a 12 ounce black angus ribeye served with crispy salt and pepper fries, rogue creamery smokey blue cheese and a demi-glace. The dessert menu is always changing, but if you can get your hands on their Creme Brulee, you won’t be disappointed!
