Our story

Born in a small kitchen, three generations ago

Black Diamond Grill is a family restaurant. Founder and executive chef Rudy Carrillo runs the kitchen, and his family welcomes you at the door and at your table.

We keep perfecting the recipes we grew up with and create new ones from scratch, for the neighbors who come in every week and the guests who make the drive from Seattle, Issaquah and Puyallup.

“Our family is devoted to serving you the finest foods with superior service.”

Our town

From a coal town to your table

Black Diamond takes its name from coal, the miners' "black diamonds". Many of the families who dug it came from Italy. Ride the line down Railroad Avenue, from the first mine to our kitchen.

  1. The mines1884

    The Black Diamond Coal Company brings miners and their families north from Nortonville, California, and opens the mines.

  2. The depot1886

    The railroad depot is built. Today it is the Black Diamond Museum, a one-minute walk from our door.

  3. Italian families1900

    About 3,500 people live here. Families from Sicily, Calabria and Basilicata settle just below the train station.

  4. New owners1904

    The Pacific Coast Company buys the mine and the whole town.

  5. The city1959

    The mines have closed, and Black Diamond becomes a city.

  6. Black Diamond GrillToday

    Chef Rudy Carrillo cooks Italian-American dinners on the same Railroad Avenue.

After dinner
