Upcoming Wine Dinners, Specials & News
A season-driven dining experience
Let Coho Restaurant take you on a culinary journey through the San Juan Islands. Our menu is dynamic and reflects the availability of the freshest local produce. Enjoy our four-course tasting menu or craft your meal à la carte. Our culinary team prepares everything from scratch daily and we know you will taste the difference.
A reputation for exceptional catering
Whether you are planning an event for 2 or 200, Coho Restaurant’s special event catering has built a reputation for consistent quality and exceptional food service using only the freshest and finest ingredients, day-of-event preparation, and artistic presentation. Let our culinary team help you design the celebration of your dreams.
An award-winning wine cellar
Our ever-evolving list includes producers from Washington, Oregon, and California alongside a selection of remarkable international wines. We particularly seek out small producers who create handcrafted wine using natural techniques that convey a sense of place. With so many bottles on our carefully curated list, you will certainly find the perfect glass to pair with your dinner.
Memorable special dining events
Throughout the year, Coho Restaurant presents special dining events to showcase remarkable food and winemakers or to lift holiday meals to the next level (without you having to lift even a finger). With menus carefully designed by our culinary team to intrigue and delight, these limited-seating evenings are quick to sell out, so be sure to reserve in advance.
A showcase of local producers
Besides allowing us to obtain the freshest products around, our local San Juan Island producers offer incredible quality. From grass-fed beef and pork to vegetables, greens, and edible flowers, we’re constantly sourcing the best of the season from our trusted local purveyors.
Gift Certificates for all occasions
Looking for the perfect gift? Consider a gift certificate for Coho Restaurant to celebrate a birthday, wedding, anniversary, or other special occasions. Available in any denomination, your gift can be used any time of the year – even for our special events and holiday dinners. Just give us a call or make your purchase online.

❄️ We’d like to remind everyone that Coho Restaurant will be closed for its annual winter hiatus from January 1st to February 12th 2026. Managing a restaurant is inherently demanding, and when you factor in the bustling summer and fall seasons, along with a packed schedule of catering events, there’s hardly any time left for a break. This seasonal closure provides our staff the opportunity to rest and rejuvenate, ensuring that we all return with renewed clarity and focus for a successful year ahead.
We will reopen February 13th and with a wonderful Valentine’s Romantic Dinner 5-course dinner w/optional wine pairing for Valentine’s Day Feb 14th. We are already accepting reservations (link in bio).
Have a wonderful start to your new year and we look forward to seeing you.
Warm Regards,
The Coho Team

💟 Part 3 of 3: Closing out the year and what would 2025 be if it weren’t for our guests? This year, our dining room (and outdoor patio during warm weather) had a consistent + balanced “hum of people chatting, sipping wine and eating various plates. Enjoying themselves in a setting that is serene & calm yet energetic”. Many new faces walked through our door who have become returning guests. Many familiar faces who have dined with us multiple times who excitedly welcomed the new team leading the restaurant. And then one guest who recently said and echoed similar sentiments of many guests who have been away for some time and now have returned: “It’s so good to be back…”
Of course, we don’t have photos of all our guests to post here as a token of our gratitude. Instead, we will share a few incredible reflections they have given us through this year, 2025. You can easily read some online that is visible to the public, but here are some of the many personal messages we receive privately through our Resy system (see photos).
Thank you thank you thank you to all our past, present & future guests. Thank you for allowing us to nourish you and bring you to a state of presence and delight when you dine with us. Thank you for letting our culinary team express their creativity and skill from the kitchen. And thank you for trusting the Front of the House team to bring you warmth and true hospitality to your experiences.
We look forward to serving you in 2026.
In Warmth & Gratitude,
The Coho Team

🍴Part 2 of 3: Closing down 2025 with the saying that goes, “the whole is greater than the sum of the parts”. In 2025, we were fortunate to have a team of incredible people that helped Coho have one of its best years within the 17 yrs we’ve had our doors open. With the return of Chef Tim Payne back as the Executive Chef, he also brought his fiance Janice to the island to manage the Front of House. With our dedicated & incredible pastry chef of several years, Chef Jessica, it was an amazing professional team through & through.
Of course, in gratitude to the Anna Maria & Dave, the owners of the San Juan Inn Collection, who doesn’t hesitate to get their hands dirty when help is needed! (plus AM is head of our catering planning!)
Thank you to the seasonal & part time employees as well as our new culinary team member Larry who joined after the start of our Summer season.

Christmas Eve has arrived and if you’re looking for last minute gift ideas or stocking stuffers, we welcome you to add a little Coho elegant cheer. We make it easier by doing it from the comforts of your own home, car, sneaking it at work or walking on the sidewalk looking at your phone (haha, please don’t 😉). We won’t be taking any in-person purchases at the restaurant as we are very full this evening with dinner service. If you’re interested in purchasing a gift certificate, we have put in the online link in our bio to connect you over there (ref: resnexus link). Scroll all the way down on that page (past Tucker House) and you’ll see Coho Gift options.
Happiest Holiday!

We’re feeling deeply grateful for such a sweet & warm welcome to our first annual Truffle + Wine Dinner. Our dining room was filled with culinary appreciated guests who joined us with this Northern Italy inspired dinner with a creative Piedmonte 5-course menu, paired with delicious Italian wines and the prized rare Truffles from Europe (including Alba White Truffles).
We’re all proud at Coho to have offered such lovely & special dinner and that we are known to continuously serve prix fixe multi-course wine dinners multiple times throughout the year. We are especially thankful for our guests who participate in our very special & intimate evenings!
Thank you to Anna Maria for stepping in for the wine pairing piece while the sommelier was absent, having to tend to the flooding crisis in Skagit Valley!
