Brass Steak & Seafood to Open at Harvest, Woodinville

Imagine a balmy evening spent on the rooftop deck of The SOMM Hotel, savoring a delightful glass of wine after an exquisite dinner. As you listen to a concert at the nearby Chateau Ste. Michelle and take in breathtaking views stretching over the Sammamish River Trail to the glimmering peaks of Mt. Rainier, you know that soon this idyllic vision will become a stunning reality.

On November 7, 2025, Harvest, a dynamic culinary and wine-tasting destination in Woodinville, Washington, is ready to welcome its first guests, thanks to the grand opening of Brass Steak & Seafood. This contemporary steakhouse represents a brainchild of renowned Seattle hospitality veterans Christopher Saenz and Kyle Quinn, who also manage the highly praised 2120 located in downtown Seattle. Saenz, who serves as General Manager, describes Brass as a chic modern interpretation of the classic steakhouse. They offer not only premium cuts and fresh local seafood but also a diverse selection of seasonal Northwest ingredients, complemented by a thoughtfully curated global wine list and expertly crafted cocktails. According to Saenz, the establishment aims to create an environment where every guest feels like a regular, providing a mix of elegance and approachability.

Brass Steak & Seafood will anchor The Yard, the centerpiece of Harvest, a lively venue where various businesses, including restaurants and tasting rooms, will operate seven days a week. Alongside Brass, guests can also enjoy flavors from Sugo Hand Rolled Sushi, the Bong Bong Bar, and Matcha Magic, among others. Wine enthusiasts can look forward to tasting exquisite offerings from renowned wineries including Avennia, Grosgrain Vineyards, and Gard Vintners, as well as indulging in small-batch bourbon tastings at J.P. Trodden. The Yard promises a vibrant community experience as it welcomes a variety of additional tenants, with the first openings expected in spring 2026.

As part of Harvest, The SOMM Hotel also commenced operations in the fall of 2025. Managed by Columbia Hospitality and part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection, this luxurious 164-room hotel epitomizes contemporary sophistication, offering a holistic wellness spa, an immersive wine blending room, and culinary experiences led by the acclaimed chef Maximillian Petty. John Evans, the hotel’s general manager, reported overwhelming positive feedback from both locals and visitors alike, adding that the hotel aims to enhance Woodinville’s landscape with unique hospitality experiences while fostering a sense of community.

The River Run townhomes, designed for families and individuals seeking an upscale living experience, have complemented this vision. With 31 homes ready for occupancy and located alongside the scenic Sammamish River Trail, River Run offers expansive views and modern amenities, making it an excellent choice for those wanting a close connection to The Yard and The SOMM Hotel. Nearby, the Vineyard Creek development provides additional residential options, including townhomes designed for family living. As excitement builds around these developments, rentals are also an option, with the Alexan Woodinville community featuring luxury apartments designed with modern living in mind.

As work continues on Harvest, the anticipation for the full realization of this food and wine hub grows. By mid-summer 2026, guests can expect to enjoy not only exquisite dining in a culturally rich environment but also a new epicenter for the gastronomic community within the Pacific Northwest. Future announcements regarding more tenants at The Yard are expected soon, promising an engaging experience in Woodinville.

With its novel approach to dining, wine tasting, and community engagement, Harvest and its Crown Jewel, Brass Steak & Seafood, are setting the stage for a vibrant future in Woodinville’s culinary landscape.
