We went there for a dinner for our wedding anniversary and the food was absolutely amazing! The price is a bit expensive but that’s what you would expect at such a fine and vibrant place! Lamb chops and Carbonara that we ordered were filled with flavors!

This place was a wonderful experience. The service was super friendly and welcoming, while the food was some of the best I’ve ever had. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare, and they came out perfect. A stand out drink was the Eastern Medicine, it was incredibly flavorful and refreshing.

The Black Cypress was my first time being at a properly nice restaurant. Being used to very nice, locally grown/sourced food I wasn't expecting a crazy increase in taste, but they did not disappoint. The atmosphere is unique in the sense of the exposed brick, low light, and use of mirrors to make the place feel bigger. The warm colors of the restaurant definitely eased the feeling of being new to fine dining. The service was also a great experience in introduction to fine dining, and our waitress took very good care of us. Checked in when necessary, but let us enjoy our evening as well. A welcome change! The food was fantastic! We tried the Carbonara suggested by our waitress, the ribeye, and the cheese sandwiches (which are to die for). The carbonara was excellent in taste, had a nice rich flavor that combined well with the salt of the bacon. The ribeye we ordered medium rare, which was perfect as well. Had a nice smoke ring, was tender and flavorful. Overall, I'd recommend going more than once. As I'm itching to do the same. It's a good place for friends, family, date night (which I'll be doing next) and worth making a reservation for!

This restaurant is excellent. We had my daughters college graduation dinner here, and it was fabulous. The service, custom cocktails, and food was on point. They went out of their way to make sure it was a special evening. Side note, try the bacon! So good!

Went here for dinner and had one of my favorite ribeyes ever. 16oz with a great crust and cooked perfectly! Also had two cocktails which were both unique, and the cheese sandwiches as an appetizer which were good. The huckleberry ice cream and bread pudding there is also a must try. Probably my favorite nice dinner spot in Pullman.

Black Cyprus is an absolute gem!!! I was hesitant to go, but my professor highly recommended I try it out, and I am so glad I did! The filet mignon was incredible…perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was amazing and an overall chill vibe. I highly recommend this spot for any special occasion!! On top of that, I had a fantastic waiter who really elevated the experience. I had such an amazing night celebrating my 21st birthday here! I Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and a memorable night out.

Had an amazing meal at the Black Cypress. We ordered the black cypress dips as appetizer, Carbonara pasta, the lamb chops and bread pudding for dessert. They make great sharing plates! Portions were good. And finally, great restaurant ambience and service that is suitable for family or a romantic nite out ;)

Knocked it out of the park in all these categories. Maybe the best service I have had at a restaurant, ever. Food is great and the ambiance is lovely (I really like the lights and mirrors!). The Roast Chicken and Kale is basically Thanksgiving but I have been a couple times now and have yet to be disappointed by a dish. Got risotto and lamb this time. Both great but look how beautiful that risotto is!?!
