Girls' Night Out Vibes in Bahama Came here for a girls' night, and honestly, Bahama Breeze never disappoints when it comes to happy hour! I've been a few times and always suggest it because the deals are solid and the vibe feels like an instant mini-vacation. The interior has that tropical, island-y design that makes you feel like you should've worn flip flops instead of heels. Staff was super welcoming, and while the service flowed nicely, the A/C was working overtime -- giving a literal Bahama breeze . Note to self: bring a jacket next time. We kicked off with a table full of happy hour favorites: Jamaican wings, tuna stack, and the shrimp + crab dip. Everything came out at once, so our table instantly turned into a feast. The wings were my favorite -- flavorful, a little smoky, and perfect without any heavy sauce. The tuna stack was fresh and colorful, and the dip was creamy, rich, and definitely great to pair with the tropical mix drinks. One of our friends joined late and ordered the paella. It looked amazing, but when I tried it, it leaned way too salty for me and tasted more like jambalaya than paella. Just not my fave. Overall, great service, generous portions, and a perfect spot for happy hour when you want to feel like you're on vacation without leaving Renton. just don't forget a jacket if you're cold-sensitive -- the "breeze" is real.

Ahi tuna salad

A great spot near SEA TAC airport. It's a big space with lots of indoor and outdoor seating so we were able to get a good table. They have a tablet at each table which displays a digital menu but we could not figure out how to order with it, so we used it to call the server to place our orders the old fashioned way. I had the coconut shrimp entree with is served with yellow rice and broccoli. The coconut shrimp was a bit on the over fried side but the rice and broccoli were cooked perfectly. It was super nice that they gave a lot of shrimp. I enjoyed my hot honey mango margarita a lot. It was strong but had all the great sweet and spicy flavors Beware of the games on the tablet, they will charge you for playing the games, which we found out when we got our bill.

We went to this place for my birthday. I haven't been here in YEAAARRSSS! The environment was very welcoming & we got seated quick even w/ a reservation. Our server was AMAZING! She made sure everything went smooth & everyone was satisfied with their order. I wish I could've gotten her name because she needs a raise for being an excellent host and person. She checked up on us ALL THE TIME! 5 stars for the server. Giving it a 4 star because of happy hour. I wish they had it at an earlier time too instead of just at night Picture is the tequila flight & an ultimate pineapple!

We went for afternoon happy hour and ordered the whole Jamaican jerk wings, 3 Bahama Mamas, and the 2 for $25 - Rasta Pasta and Coconut Shrimp Tacos. Everything was delicious and the portions were great. We enjoyed our time there and just learned that they're closing soon

Kid's menu: Crispy Chicken Fingers

Cozy, spacious for family with children or special events. Their menu has great options for non alcohol drink for those can't take alcohol. The portions are shareable, the steak salad was cooked just right, jerk chickens wings were flavorful. My kid loved his delicious, generous portion chicken strips. Service was fast and efficient. Definitely coming back.

I have been meaning to visit Bahama Breeze since FOREVER after moving to Seattle years ago, and I finally got the chance to check it out recently. My friends and I wanted to find a place to catch up that's somewhere in between where we all live and just happened to end up going here. I ordered the Margarita Flight which had the Classic, Dragon Fruit, and Cocorita. Out of the three, a Classic Margarita can never do you wrong. The Dragon Fruit was pretty good too, on the sweeter side for sure. Not the biggest fan of Cocorita but still can be enjoyable. Did not get a chance to try the food, but will definitely come back again soon!

Coconut Shrimp Tacos (2) with a bowl of Bahamian Seafood Chowder
Pearl L.

Came here on my birthday last Saturday as I really wanted to get the new Flaming Pineapple Butter Cake for my free birthday dessert. My mom and I weren't too hungry though but we needed to one adult entree to get it so we decided to share a two coconut shrimp taco and upgraded from a cup to bowl for a $1 more of their Bahamian Seafood Chowder. Our waiter Levi was very courteous and had a great sense of humor that he not only brought to us but to his other tables as well. The sauce that comes with the coconut shrimp was such a fantastic pair to the taco. The soup was very good too, with plenty of little shrimps and clams. It also came with oyster crackers which are my preferred toppings on soups. Once Levi saw we were done, he asked if it would be a good time to bring out dessert and we let him know that we were ready! He politely let us know that we could move the spoons away as the fire does make it hot but we said it was alright. The cake was the perfect amount of sweetness and I enjoyed the little fire show that comes with it. It has been years since my mom and I visited Bahama Breeze but re-visiting it was memorable and we were happy to know the food and service here is still stellar. There was live music playing in their other dining section, which was nice as they have soundproof walls so the rest of restaurant didn't have to listen so I thought that was neat. They even had two large fire places inside so made for a cool dining space. Also just an additional tip: I used a gift card here and it turns out you can use it to tip as well, as I know other businesses will allow it or sometimes not so heads up to those with gift cards!

One of our go to places that is close to home and that we know we will enjoy! I've tried several items on their menu, but what I usually enjoy is their empanadas, habanero chicken wings and the skillet simmered jerk shrimp; however my absolute favorite item here is their Jamaican spicy sauce! It is spicy and just makes everything taste that much better. We usually sit at the bar area and the bartenders are all nice and friendly.

It was alright. Service - We were seated at their "outdoor" sunroom type area. It had a very casual vibe when compared to the main restaurant area. There were heaters out there, so it was very warm. We asked to move due to the heat and were moved 2 tables down. There was live music in the area we were at. Food - I got the Tito's Beachside Strawberry Breeze. Tasted just like I expected from the description. For an appetizer, we shared the coconut shrimp. The shrimp was plump and it had a great crunch. For my dinner, I ordered the Jamaican Jerk chicken which came with some kind of sweet sauce, rice, black beans, and plantain. When I got my entree, it was warm and the chicken was tough. It was tough to the point I could not cut through the meat with a knife. The server was generous and had the kitchen remake the entree without me asking. When the new dish came out, it was piping hot and the chicken was juicy. It was a decent meal.

Beef Empanadas (4)
Kendra Z.

I would give this a 3.5 if I could. I wish this place wasn't closing in April! It's been a good spot for dates, happy hours and just a regular meal and been a fun spot for the past 2 decades or so. We went here on Valentine's of all days and so many others had the same idea. We made a reservation for 6:15PM. The waiting area was packed, but the hostesses were all friendly and calm, given how crowded it was. We were seated around 6:40PM. We were seated in the bar/cabana side and to our surprise there was live music, a gentleman playing the steel drum. Our server was friendly and up beat. She did warn us the kitchen was a little backed up. So we quickly ordered, drinks, apps and mains. I ordered the infamous Bahamarita and my partner got King Carnival. We ordered Beef Empanadas and Jerk Chicken Wings. Drinks and apps came out quickly within 10 mins of ordering. The Bahamarita was delish, but so sugary so I only ordered one. The Empanadas and Wings were goood as always, these are the 2 items I always love getting from here. The live music was a special treat, but the musician mentioned it was his last show, such a bummer bc it was a fun added touch to the environment. We both ordered the Jerk Chicken Pasta and it took a while to come out, maybe 40 mins after our apps. It's my go-to dish at Bahama Breeze and not sure if it was an off night or they changed the recipe but it wasn't very good in my opinion. It was lacking in sauce and was rather dry and the flavor and spiciness was off as well. The chicken portion seemed smaller (than from a couple years ago) and there was what seemed like a larger amount of asparagus (but I do like asparagus). Thank you to all the workers at Bahama Breeze, all in all I will miss it! And pay them a visit before they close in April!

House side salad

It was literally a last minute dinner reservation on a Thanksgiving night. The place was closing in an hour and they took us in. The restaurant was bustling with families enjoying their dinner and drinks. I believe this is the only restaurant open at this shopping center. Our service was fast, fun and friendly. None of the staff seemed stressed or upset. They were all in a happy mood and smiling. We were looking at the regular menu but decided to take the offer of tonite's special, the Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner. I'm glad we decided on that because it was probably the best we've had. I needed a drink and decided the Bruno smash hit. It was STRONG and I LOVED it. Exactly what I needed. Thank you for a great night.

@ Westfield South Centre Mall
Shonah M.

I'd driven right by Bahama Breeze dozens of times while I was on my way to Westfield Southcenter Mall in Tuqwila, but never thought to pop in. It never seemed to be able to pull me in. However, that all changed by a meeting I was invited to for a discussion on a future event for 2025. Was I ever glad I came down on this road trip - oh yaaaaah! The whole restaurant has that Bahamas feel - I can only tell that from movies & tv, having never been to the Bahamas. However, I have been to the Caribbean several times so I think I'm qualified to talk about it - LOL. The entire surrounding of the restaurant has that Caribbean vibe feeling. See my pix. The interior design continues with that Bahamas feel. Very impressive. Our waiter was wonderful & prompt. My cocktail - Guava Goose Cosmo, had me singing ... Day O like Harry Belafonte! Ha! We started with the gigantic Coconut Shrimp - get it! The Jerk Chicken was just ok. Please note if you are a massive expert consumer of Jerk Chicken, then don't get it as it is a bit shy of that umph factor - that extra kick in authentic Jerk Chicken. My Lobster & Shrimp Linguine - was very good but definitely could have had a little more shrimp & lobster in the mix. Best way to describe my time here - I definitely want to come back & try other menu items!

Absolutely love this place and each time I go, the service, the food, the drinks, the ambiance, they are all top notch and will be missed. Thank you to the staff at this location for always making me feel welcome. 10/10

I was curious about this restaurant for months before eventually coming in and regret not coming in…read moresooner! The restaurant ambiance is unmatched and it's obvious they put lots of consideration and care into their design and food. We were so impressed with the empanadas (cheesy chicken and beef) and special sauces. The chicken salad arepas was packed with protein. We can't wait to come back to try their other dishes! Live music is from 7:30-9:30 pm Fri-Sat, followed by karaoke.

Though we both liked our entrees, we both thought the protein quality of the mains is just ok. The winning dish is the mini arepas, hands down. I would order those mini arepa for my entree easily. This location is roomy. Service is warm; our server was helpful answering questions. The Food: Arepitas Fritas, $17 - 5+ Stars Four mini arepa in the appetizer section, these start with the same cornmeal (masa de maíz) base as the normal arepa, then topped with cheese, slow cooked beef, quail egg, and pink sauce. These bites are sooooo good! They sell the full-size arepas also, which will likely be a future meal. :) Platanos Fritos, $8 - 5 Stars Gotta love Latin foods with their plantains. Simple and delicious. Theirs are perfectly prepared. Camarones de Ajillo, $19 - 3.5 Stars These shrimps are cooked in garlic, herbs, and cream. The herb butter sauce is excellent, but the shrimps' quality is just ok. We liked it enough but will not order again. Asado Negro Tips, $23 - 3.5 Stars 8 oz of NY strip are cooked cubed in asado sauce, served with yuca fries and quasaca, a mini tomato and avocado salad. Again, the asado sauce is excellent, but the steak pieces are on the tough side. The yuca fries didn't stand out. This is also a 'liked it enough but won't order again' dish.

Cocktails have been forgotten, which we have had to remind them on as well. To our server's credit, she apologized many times and said the restaurant just got super busy at once. However, we noticed other tables (who arrived after us) were attended to and served sooner than we were. Given all the disorder, our family has decided we are just going to get takeout. The food is still excellent, but we are frustrated with the service.
