The vegetable dishes were excellent: flavorful, well-prepared, and apparently packed with enough fiber to move several years of unresolved business through my digestive system. By the end of the evening, my bowels had entered what I can only describe as "Super Slide" mode. This was not ordinary diarrhea. This was an express-lane evacuation. Waste did not merely leave my body; it checked out early, skipped the front desk, and fled the premises without saying goodbye. The food was delicious, the staff was attentive, and my colon emerged feeling lighter, cleaner, and emotionally available. Highly recommended for vegetarians, food lovers, and anyone whose lower intestine needs a firm but flavorful motivational speech.

There's a menu section that filters all their items based on dietary restrictions, so it was pretty easy to find items that fit her dietary needs. The aguachile was fresh and bursting with flavor, the chilies were really well-seasoned, but the duck was the real standout. So well-seasoned, tender, and that cranberry sauce?! Did not expect to like it as much as I did. We also got some mocktails which were yummy and hit the spot! Docking off one star just because the price was pretty steep for the portion, but otherwise was a nice spot.

This is one of two or three restaurants/bars inside Bellevue Club…read more First off, the service was amazing. I think our server's name is Peyton. It looked like she was the only server today covering the entire seating area (other than the bar) and she remembered all of my group's drinks and somehow showed up whenever we needed attention. Efforts way beyond expectations. In fact, this is one of the main reasons I am giving this venue a 5 star review. Our food was good too (see photo). I just wish they had more variety of beer. It doesn't even have to be on tap but even can/bottle options. Their liquor selection is excellent (especially bourbon!) and it seemed like they offer decent wines too. I don't know much about wine though. As far as I know, you do not need to be a member of Bellevue Club to dine here. No one from my party today was (but I was here for an event and I invited my friends over for happy hour afterwards). The prices are great during happy hour and even non-happy hour prices aren't expensive in my humble opinion - especially given the location. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

We had a wonderful family dinner at JOEY Bellevue celebrating my upcoming birthday, and this place…read morecompletely won our hearts! The service was top-notch--the staff was incredibly attentive and caring. It was so sweet and pleasant to receive a birthday congratulation along with a complimentary dessert from the team. The food was absolute perfection! Everything we ordered was prepared flawlessly, and the steak was a true masterpiece--it literally melted in my mouth. A huge respect and thank you to the chefs for their incredible talent! But the sweetest surprise was waiting for us at home. I placed a to-go order for a portion of two potato sticks, and when I opened the bag at home, I found they had given us 4 pieces instead, plus an amazingly delicious chocolate brownie! That level of generosity and attention to detail is simply wonderful. We will definitely be returning to JOEY Bellevue again and again. I highly recommend visiting this spot!

Although it's really hard to pick a favorite dish, I'd have to say that you absolutely must save room for the Apple galette (but be warned-it takes a VERY long time). Seriously, plan your meal around it and expect them to take 45 minutes to an hour to bring it to you (at lunchtime on a weekday). We were on holiday, so we had flexibility. My second favorite thing to eat was the lobster pasta, followed by the tempura shrimp, and bang bang chicken. They did give us a welcome glass of "champagne," but it was completely un drinkable. The service was extraordinarily slow, but this was probably a function of them being understaffed and everyone was very nice. I say this more so that you can plan accordingly and adjust expectations than to be hypercritical. I should also note that we split plates, so you are seeing half portions.

Definitely a more pricy option but I'd consider it worth a try!

I also asked for chopsticks - none. The poke bowl was ok. I rate it 3.5. Couldn't taste the furikake. Fish portion was a bit small and it was one scoop of rice. The bowl itself was tasty overall.

Almost 20 years later and now married, I wanted to bring my husband here and share this experience. Of course, we both had a great time. The atmosphere, the service, the food. Again, all wonderful! Parking is in the garage, and they validate. We got the Torched Salmon Belly (be sure to eat the leaf it comes on! it's part of the experience). Delicious! 10/10 would get again, mostly because the Shiso leaf was something I've never had before. The Grilled Octopus was wonderful and not chewy at all. Loved the Greek lemon caper pepperoncini vinaigrette that came with it. I read that a lot of others were recommending the Deviled Eggs, which we also got and enjoyed. I think one set was salmon and the other was tuna. You honestly cant go wrong with either. I feel like getting the Coconut Creme Pie is a must here. I love coconut, and oddly enough really dislike pies, so this wouldn't be something I would normally get. But with a presentation like this, how can you pass it up? I do remember getting this back in 2008 and loving it, and it seems my tastebuds haven't changed. 10/10! Get this! But only if you love coconut.

We were…read morespecifically looking for some seafood to round out our first night in the Seattle area, and Seastar was both the most convenient and the one with reservations available. For two, we got a few appetizers (ahi tuna poke, crab cakes, raw oysters) and an entree to split (Jambalaya). Service was very attentive, checking in after each meal and even pre-splitting the entree which was great. Overall though, the appetizers failed to impress. The highlights of this meal were probably the raw oysters followed by the Jambalaya, which meant the rest of the meal left something to be desired. 3/5 stars for the average meal but +1 star for service.

He's the kind of bartender every place wishes they had--remembers your name, makes you feel like a regular, and his espresso martini? Next level. Chef Sal does not miss. I've had the vegetarian lasagna, garlic chicken, ahi tuna--every single dish is consistently excellent. This is one of those rare places where you can order anything and know it'll be good. Pro tip: don't skip happy hour (the burgers are legit), and if you're there for brunch or lunch, get the lobster roll. Best in Bellevue. Great food, great people, zero misses. That's why we keep coming back.

The best part of our meal were the crispy shrimp appetizer! They were delicious and the way they were prepared made them a great texture. The fish dish I had was the special of the evening and while the fish was good, it was overall kind of underwhelming as a dish. For what you get, it's way over priced. Yes, I realize it's in old town bellevue, but geez. They do have a good selection of wine and the staff were great, so that is a bonus!

This is an unbiased review, he didn't ask me to leave a review for him :) - [4/5 ] Food We got a bread and butter and the Dungeness crab cakes to start. My husband got the Japanese A5 wagyu paired with lobster mashed potatoes. I got the fresh NW King salmon. Food was delicious! The steak was melt in your mouth tender. My salmon was cooked perfectly too. They gave us 3 different salts to pair our food with which was fun! Emil also brought out a small dessert since we were celebrating my husband's birthday which was thoughtful of them to do! Prices are a bit steep - but that's to be expected at an upscale restaurant like this. Our bill came out to around $400 (which included the mandatory 20% service charge and additional tip since service was wonderful). - [ 5/5] Location/Parking Restaurant is located in the Bravern.

Review for happy hour: We've been twice and it's ok. Aesthetic is dated, service is nice. The only…read morething worth it on the happy hour menu is the steak bites. The sliders were drenched in sauce (even though we asked for light sauce) and the patties were completely flavorless. Not happy hour items we ordered: Bread basket ($12!) could be fine to share but not what I was expecting. For a steakhouse, I was expecting more chewy sourdough options and not a mismatched basket. Just ok but presentation was nice. We did order the lobster mashed potatoes in the past and those were pricey but worth it.
