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.

Both came out hot and fresh with great flavors! Meatballs a little bit on the dry side. Big portions, and I could have probably just had one and been full but it was a nice to have the variety and plenty for leftovers. Excellent service even though it was super busy when I went and seemed like there was just one server/bartender holding down the whole place. I sat at the bar and was checked on plenty. Nice stop for a chill solo meal!

I loved the variety of sauces and the staff's help in picking exactly what we wanted. We paired them with different types of drinks that complemented the flavors very well. For our entrées, we all ordered the Sea Bass given the high remarks we had heard, and it did not disappoint at all. It was delicious and definitely worth the price point. The space is overall excellent with a variety of seating, and the location right in Bellevue Square is perfect. Good food and great vibes!

Perfectly salted butter, and the taste reminded me of sourdough but the texture of the bread itself was like a very crispy crunchy outer layer over a martin's potato roll. - The Grand (3/5): I learned that I am definitely not a shellfish person.. so keep in mind of my biased take! I wish the waiter explained what came on our plate, but he quickly scooted away. The scallops were my favorite. Nice and mild and sweet flavor. The grand also came with 6 sauces to pair. Wasn't sure which sauce went best with which, but doesn't hurt to try? shell on shrimp and lobster claw were the second and third bests in my opinion. - Grilled Black-eyed Perch (4/5): got a smaller 1.2 lb fish. Can get it grilled and fried. Fried is ~$4 more. This fish was around 38-39/lb at the time of writing. Flavors were so great! Not a bony fish at all and didn't have to really pick at it. A tad dry in certain parts, but again, nice salty, zesty from the lemon and herbaceous. This place is definitely on the $$$ side, so can see ppl coming here for special occasions.

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're greeted immediately by the person at the front desk, pointed us to the bar, which happened to still be happy hour. The place was pretty quiet, only one other person at the bar. We were greeted immediately by Dean, who was very friendly and engaging. We were handed off to another server, I don't recall a name, as they didn't introduce themselves. We went through the extensive beer list and found a couple really good beers, in our opinion, that turned out to be really good beers. I ended up having a second beer, which turned out to be just as good as the earlier two beers. My only complaint, was that it was before happy hour was done, and no one asked us if we wanted any food. Not that we needed any, but it would've been nice to have been asked. Good job overall.

I wasn't feeling like a big entree but I put together a fun little meal out of their falafel bites and tomato soup- both were really good. I appreciated that the service folks made sure I got some extra toasted bread with my soup. A coworker got the buttermilk fried chicken and it was an impressive serving. Also loved the extensive selection of whiskey, cocktails, and non alcoholic cocktails. Non alcoholic options really allow anyone to relax with a drink. But not me I had woodinville rye whiskey because it's a local fav. OH!

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.

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.
