Thursday Night Dinner
Thursday is where the weekend begins at Skagit Valley Larder.
Each Thursday evening we offer a single 6pm seating for a three-course pre-fixe dinner—our most intentional, intimate service of the week. The menu changes weekly and is guided by the season, inspired by our travels, and rooted in Arlen’s love of Italian cooking.
This is when we pull out all the stops: thoughtful pacing, attentive service, and a relaxed, candle-lit experience that lets you fully settle in and be taken care of. It’s our chance to slow things down and do what we do best.
On Fridays and Saturdays, when we’re open later, you’ll see à la carte specials that riff on the Thursday night menu, alongside our staple plates and lunch offerings—so the spirit of the dinner carries through the weekend.
Enjoy a thoughtfully crafted meal for $48 per person. Wine pairings are available for an additional $36. Please note that tax and gratuity are not included.
We will have ONE seating at 6pm. Some walk in space available - just call and check with us before making your way down.
We look forward to welcoming you for this special dining experience.
