My initial review was based on when it was located in Downtown Bellevue across from Bellevue and…read morestill know as Cost Plus. Since then, it has moved to Crossroads into the former Barnes & Noble space across from QFC and has updated its official name to World Market. The first impressions of the store mentioned before still are valid. It has a great selection of home decor, kitchen supplies and specialty food items. Particularly international foods that are hard to find elsewhere. The location itself is a lot more convenient as it is closer to my home than the other location, which is a huge plus. However, I knocked a star as it can be hard to determine the current stock of products at the store when checking online. I have made numerous online purchases on the website for store pickup as they offer a discount for this option. However, I have experienced many instances when a product I ordered was unavailable even though the website said it was. Particularly on items where the stock shows that there are a few left. If you order online, just be aware that the store may not have it available, especially if the website says they are close to selling out.

- horrible pickup process -…read more I placed an online order, and it was ready to be picked up after 3 hours. Yup, it takes them 3 hours to fill my order with two items, and one of them is out of stock but they didn't update it on my pickup notification. I went in, waited in line for it. Then when it was my turn, the cashier was gonna help me out but someone else came to line up, so she told me she has to help her first. So I had to wait for her to finish the order first before she could fetch my stuff in the back. When that was done, she went to the back and brought me one of them items. They weren't gonna give me a receipt so I had no clue the other item was out of stock, so I asked her where that is.. then someone else came and she had to help her first of course, so I waited forever for her to go to the back.. and eventually she came back and told me the item was out of stock so they didn't charge for it. I had no notification of that, so I asked for a copy of that piece of paper with the info, then she told me to take a pix. . It's weird how disconnected and inefficient this whole pickup process is. And the fact that I had to keep waiting for other people is highly unacceptable and the whole process took 20 minutes or more .. this is my first time placing an online order, and also the last time.

But if you can find the beer in your town, ORDER IN YOUR TOWN. If you can't find it locally, LetsPour.com is a great place to get fantastic beer. I've never had them mess up an order, and I've never even needed to contact Customer Service. They ship reasonably quickly and provide a tracking number. Only gets 4 stars because the beer is a little on the expensive side, and their description of shipping costs is a little misleading. They say if you order 6 beers, you get free shipping, but they also say their beer-bottle costs are higher because of shipping costs. So in truth, you're not getting free shipping. That being said, I really only use these guys for group-buys, and for that, they work perfectly.

This store, located on Main Street in Bellevue, has a lot of similar vibes - including friendly staff, one of a kind Italian imports and a relaxed and yet elegant environment. We had a wonderful time, talking with the owner about some of his favorite offerings, and getting to know some of the wine makers that he has met personally. This is one of my favorite things to do with wine makers, importers, and other aficionados. We picked up 6 bottles ones based on their recommendations, and every single recommendation was a great choice. This is definitely one of my go-to stops when visiting the Seattle-Bellevue Metro Area.

This Thursday night flight was a great party, fun social event & generous on the pours! As an added bonus there were light bites & paella cooked right outside by staff. If you're looking for an Eastside gem on a Thursday night then you should check this venue out. It's a bit of a challenge to find because it's the event space in the rear of the parking lot behind the Italian restaurant & next to the massage place. The owners are really sweet and kind! It was lovely to be greeted and mix/mingle with them and there wasn't a time when you had to wait for a pour

My wife, 10 years old daughter and I all had a magnificent time that reminded us of the fun we had eating like this in Italy The service was a bit odd as we had different servers so we must have been between shifts, but they were nice but slow. We weren't in a hurry so we enjoyed the ambiance of this well lit and comfortable place. My wife added it to her favorites to take friends to enjoy conversation and light eating. I will definitely go back and look forward to enjoying it on another sunny day.

The carrots on the other hand missed the mark for us, the flavors felt like they were clashing and needed some sweetness to balance out the feta. The burger was a good classic one but nothing special, but the fries were the absolute standout of the night. The seasoning tasked exactly like bbq sauce and was fantastic. Overall would recommend this place for happy hour or a date night!
