Came for UVillage Summer Concert…read more First time for Cover Band Petty Fever band. Concerts are usually pretty crowded- this one was not but it's nice to have free music outdoor.

UNIVERSITY VILLAGE @ SEATTLE…read more Parking here is pretty difficult compared to a lot of other Seattle shopping areas. There are several free parking lots scattered throughout the Village, so you shouldn't have much trouble finding a spot, though it can get busier on weekends. If the closer lots are full, there's usually still space in the ones further from the entrance, just a short walk in. I came here because I wanted to check out the area close to UW campus, and I'd heard good things about the shops and atmosphere. It's a bit different from your typical outdoor mall since it actually feels like a nice little town, with trees lining the walkways and a really pleasant atmosphere overall. It doesn't feel like you're just walking through a parking lot to get store to store, it actually feels intentional and calming. The variety of stores was great, a good mix of bigger name brands and smaller local shops, so there was plenty to look through. My only complaint is that I wish there were more restaurant and shop options overall. It's not huge, so once you've walked through, you've pretty much seen everything, and I would have loved a few more places to eat or browse. Still, it's a really charming spot and one of the nicer outdoor shopping areas in Seattle. I'd definitely come back, especially if I'm already near UW.

I love the emotion in this one. I would keep that because it feels authentic rather than trying to…read moresound like an advertisement. There is so much I could say about Bellevue Square. I've been coming here for years, and it has become one of my favorite places in the Seattle area. I still remember my very first visit. I was amazed by the number of stores, how clean everything was, and how easy it was to park. Over the years, it has become my go-to place to meet friends for lunch, spend an afternoon shopping, or catch a movie across the street. I know it's a big corporate mall, but somehow it has always felt welcoming to me. This may sound a little silly, but it feels like a place that understands me and takes care of its visitors. Every visit just feels easy and enjoyable. If you love shopping, this is the place. Chanel, Dior, Sephora, Burberry, Tory Burch, Nordstrom--you'll find them all here, along with plenty of great restaurants and places to relax. I've been to malls all over the Seattle area, and Bellevue Square is still my favorite. In my opinion, it's simply the best shopping destination in the region. That line, "This may sound a little silly, but it feels like a place that understands me and takes care of its visitors," is uniquely you. I'd keep it--it gives the review personality and makes it memorable.

Bellevue Square Mall is one of the nicer malls in Washington. They have a wide selection of stores…read moreand are always adding more! Their food/drink stores are also great; they have a variety of different boba stores, which I love! Every store I walk into, I always feel welcomed! I've never ran into any issues or problems at Bellevue Square. I love how they host events for different cultures/holiday events. Finding parking is always easy! And comparing this place to other malls, there's never been any huge incidents or any violent mishaps like (shootings). Bellevue Square always feels safe!

TL:DR - Everything you need in this mall area…read more There's plenty of parking here for everyone. Great little mall with everything you need. There's Walmart, auto zone, fitness center, Starbucks. Good restaurants in the area including wing stop, little caesars, and the one we chose was "Kizuki Ramen & Izakaya."

I have been a long time customer at this restaurant and was very disappointed with my experience…read moreyesterday. When we asked for extra salsa, the waitress said it would be an extra dollar. That's fine if they charge us but I felt like I was being nickled and dimed during my meal when we were trying to relax during our outing. Las Palmeras is not exactly inexpensive so why not raise their prices a little more, stop bugging the customer about more money during their meal, and provide customers with a seamless experience? They also gave us tiny take home containers when we clearly needed larger ones and they stopped providing after dinner mints. The food was delicious but I left feeling upset that they changed so much in the wrong direction.

Crown Hill Plaza is quickly becoming my favorite local hangout. It's a miniature shopping area with…read morea Chevron gas station, a Blockbuster, a Papa John's Pizza, a McDonald's, and a few other businesses. What typically happens is I pick up some movies at Blockbuster (we have that movie club thing) and then go to either McDonald's or Papa John's for food and then get some gas. Sometimes I pick up a paper at the convenience store connected to McDonald's. The only troubling aspect is that some fucker always decides to park his or her car in the middle of the shopping center, NOT IN ANY PARKING SPOT but right in the middle of traffic. This shopping plaza gets a fair amount of traffic, so every time some ASSHOLE does this it's a huge inconvenience to everyone else and an accident waiting to happen. No one expects to drive into a shopping plaza and find a car right smack in the middle, 50 feet from the nearest parking spot. It's happened twice now and the cars have been parked there for several minutes at a time. I don't know if it's someone returning their videos or what, but that's why there are parking spots. Societies have rules, and when you break these rules there are consequences. If it happens again, fucker, I'll have my wife key your car (which she seems to have a fascination with) or I'll buy some tacks and leave them strategically placed near your tires.

Worthy of an occasional visit with its a convenient ATM, customer parking lot, and located on a major Metro bus route.

It's quiet and cozy and seems that the shops are quite specialized, many items feeling more like small gifts you may wish to give rather than items one would purchase and keep in their own possessions.

Some friends took us here, and I really enjoyed just how huge this market was! There were so many…read moredifferent types of vendors: food, drinks, clothing, jewelry, arts & crafts, and more! I loved seeing such a wide variety because everyone in our group was able to find something they genuinely enjoyed despite our different tastes lol Personally, I ended up buying a Green Amethyst necklace from Sea Diamonds, a ring from another jewelry vendor, a chain and three charms from a vendor in the indoor section, and even a custom poem from an artist who was creating them on the spot with her typewriter! That was definitely one of the most unique things I came across. As for food, I got to try the Crab Mac & Cheese from Sam's Crab Mac & Cheese and was completely sold after the sample bite (highly recommend!!). I also enjoyed a Mangonada from one of the Mexican food vendors, and the Watermelon Sour Cotton Candy from CottonMouth Confections, which was another standout and definitely worth trying!! Overall, if you want to fully explore everything the market has to offer, I'd recommend setting aside a few hours.

They had a small package of salmon sashimi there in a small pack with two pieces in it for $3.49. The produce section was nice too. The beer & liquor selection is huge, but they don't have any light beer a available there. Weird. They sell fresh flowers and plants there too. The cashier was friendly. He wrapped up the soup in rubber bands so it wouldn't spill. There are more stores in this shopping center as well as some teriyaki place upstairs. I think that this place is open 24/7, or late at least.
