    Was pleasantly surprised by the food here. They have a happy hour with food and drink specials. We came in for a wine tasting, which was pretty good. Food was good and the server was attentive. It took a little while to get our check and pay and they weren't busy at all. I would definitely try it again. It's spacious inside with a big bar area.

    The best server ever
    Kevin W.

    Cailin is the best server ever! She brought a ton of energy and made the visit memorable. I was here for a company event and everything was amazing. For drinks, I got a marshmallow old fashioned that had smoke and a toasted marshmallow and a wine and whiskey concoction. Both drinks were a good balance of taste and strength. I can barely remember any of the food. I think I had a nacho, hot cheetos wing, and a chicken slider. Food was not bad but not that good either.

    This seriously had the best burger! The service was excellent!!!! You've got to try the oyster mushroom with buffalo sauce. I could eat plates and plates of these mushrooms! Five star service

    Chicken sandwich, Hibiscus sparkling drink
    Sabina M.

    Maybe this was just a rough day for them, I had a team lunch at the Boardwalk where I excitedly ordered their crispy chicken sandwich. To my surprise, this sandwich came drenched in a BBQ sauce that I didn't quite enjoy and caused the rest of my meal to be a bit disappointing. I also had their sparkling hibiscus-lemonade which I liked a bit, and their arugula salad which I liked a lot. Their service was great and the ambiance is perfect for an informal team get-togeth

    Burger

    The absolute BEST cheddar garlic waffle fries -- portions are massive and so good I always have to get these when I come here! Their happy hour deals are great and everything I've tried has been amazing. I was really pleasantly surprised by how good the burger was too, super juicy and very well seasoned on a soft and pillowy brioche bun. Definitely worth a visit!

    Cauliflower wings, buffalo wings and cheddar garlic waffle fries

    The food is what you would find at The Rock or Hard Rock cafe. We got the fish and chips (with flat french fries), cauliflower and buffalo wings, Mac and cheese, grilled asparagus with soft boiled egg, hamburger, chicken burger and ice cream sandwich with molly moon ice cream or affogato. Service was good. Food was ok. Lots of tables and chairs to sit at.

    - great place for happy hour options, they have burgers/sliders, loaded fries, nachos that are pretty tasty. It might be difficult to find a table past 5/6 but just come early and be flexible. warning, the place is pretty loud indoors and you might be talking loudly to hear your companion as well. it's a good place to get some work done as well; I saw some people with laptops and working.

    The smash burger with fries is really great The fries are between a little bit like chips, but softer and crispy The burger has good patty and the bun is soaked with butter Love it

    Really enjoyed a quick dinner here while visiting the Microsoft campus. The interior design is prefab, but that's to be expected given the location. The space a light and open, with lots of different spaces for hanging out to catch a drink or sit and have a bite. We ordered off the happy hour menu. I got the Mac and cheese with chicken added on the server's recommendation. The Mac and cheese was good, although could definable been cheesier. The grilled chicken was a great addition though - really nicely seasoned and char-grilled. The staff is super friendly and attentive and everything is clean. Would definitely stop here again when visiting!

    Cod & fries
    Sheri H.

    Overpriced food with small portions. My fish and chips showed up with 1 piece of cod - this is not enough food for a meal, folks. The salad it claimed it came with was a clump of greens with olive oil drizzled on. Seriously. The cod was cooked well, but can't really destroy fried fish. $18 pretax for this, UGH. When it comes to having something to drink that isn't alcoholic, they were all out of the really cool root beer the waiter raved about to me. Then he told me they don't have a full bar so he couldn't make a Roy Rogers. Then he told me they didn't have Dr. Pepper. "Tell me what you have that is not alcohol, tea or coffee," I asked him. He told me about some lemonade spritzer none of us had ever heard of, and I said I'd try it. It was awful, so he said he wouldn't put it on the check. Menu is limited, and everything is expensive. Note that this is on the Microsoft corporate campus, but is open to the public. Parking is a bit of a beast and via the parking garage, but you'll have to register your car with reception before you can go to the restaurant. Food: 2 Service: 4 Ambiance: 3 Parking: 3

    The 'campus' bar
    Paul L.

    The campus bar... Microsoft campus Ambience: 4 Food: 4 Drinks: 4 Value: 4 Boardwalk is the Microsoft campus bar. Situated in the Microsoft Commons, next the sports field, this is the only place on Microsoft campus to get a drink. In fact, I think you might need a badge to get in during business hours. Of the typical modern hipster style, the interior is quirky and innocuous. The food is pretty good, fries are crispy, sauces are savory, and the portions are decent. The drinks are even, dare I say it, a bit eccentric. With a cherry infused Manhattan and a spicy Serrano margarita, it's actually not bad. Most of all, it's very nicely priced at happy hour, with cocktails around $8. This is overall a really good place to go for a happy hour drink... if you don't mind being surrounded by Microsofties.

    Salad with Kale
    Hazel K.

    Had a great time here! Was greeted as soon as I walked though the door, grabbed my drinks at the bar and sat down to an amazing meal. Was brought here by some folks who work for Microsoft so was a bit tricky finding the place but really enjoyed the food and drinks. Ordered some delicious food, was checked on multiple times about the food and if we needed anything else. One of the best Caesar salads I ever had in my life!! HANDS DOWN! Cheese was so finely graded, greens tasted fresh and dressed perfectly. Everyone I was with had a great time (as we do get kinda loud and crazy so not so packed bar/restaurants are perfect for me and my loud and obnoxious friends) and here on a Friday night was very enjoyable. Will be coming back for sure!

My mom recently had a 75th birthday and the woman loves a sweet treat! I know that when I would fly over from NY, this would be one of our first stops. I wanted to take both my parents out for coffee and dessert. Our waitress was an absolute dream. The service was so stellar that morning. Yes, we ate cake at 9:39 am but it was way after our breakfast and before our nice walk in downtown Kirkland. We looked at the desserts before sitting down. There was a tray of a rhubarb crumb that looked good. I asked for that and the chocolate cake. I ordered a large cappuccino, my dad an americano and my mom got a latte. While the coffees were being made someone came in and snagged the whole tray because of Mother's Day. We made a decision to get the carrot cake. Secretly I think my dad was hoping for a Carrot Cake. We enjoyed both cakes and the cake slices were huge! I love baking myself and understand ingredients are not cheap so I believe they are very much worth the price. The space was nice and clean. Everyone's food around us looked delicious. I will definitely be back to try out the food next time I come to visit.

While there's a street door, main entry is via the hotel lobby. We parked in hotel parking under the building, for no charge. Your mileage may vary. The vibe was very "hotel restaurant" - but we could see that with the lights dimmed if would be softer and cozier. We were not disappointed - it was pleasant and bright and clean. After looking at the menu we opted for a couple of pints of Mac and Jack's African Amber and three shared plates. Our server, Chett, was awesome - super attentive, made good suggestions and was on point in taking care of us. Checked in between plates and promptly removed the prior before delivering the next which was very welcome We started with the Ceviche Tostadas, which were delightful. Seriously this may be the optimum way to eat ceviche and this was the best I'd had since last I was on the Gulf Coast Next was the Caprese Salad, made with fresh mozzarella and heirloom tomatoes. It was very good, with the pesto and extremely good balsamic adding just a touch of sweetness. Last was the Classic Italian Meatballs. The house made marinara was spectacular - not too sweet and not too spicy, just right. The meatballs themselves were plump and juicy, holding up well to the marinara. The grilled bread was perfect for soaking up the dribbly bits. For desert we wanted the Ube Crème Cronuts but sadly they were out, so we opted for the Cheesecake Tower. There was no "tower" in evidence but the cheesecake was competent with a spattering of strawberry chunks and some blueberries. A nice ending to the meal Highly recommended, particularly if you're a guest in the hotel.

While the Redmond food scene doesn't stand out against others like Bellevue and Seattle, even Issaquah and Woodinville, we expected a certain level of quality. Upon walking in, the vibes were more of tavern than steakhouse. Once seated in the back in our deteriorating booth, our server came to collect our drink orders which came out in good time. However, our first concerns started surfacing when we asked questions about the menu. Many items listed indicated the warning around undercooked or raw foods, I'm pregnant so it is a bit alarming when things like the roasted chicken have the undercooked asterisk. Our server blatantly brushed off our concerns stating that obviously that wouldn't be undercooked... we received similar answers when my husband inquired about our servers recommendations for steak and a glass of wine: short, brisk, and largely unhelpful. His service continued to be fleeting and disregarding throughout our entire experience. The food came out, I ordered the chicken and my husband had ordered the delmonico, and looked good but was fairly bland. The steak looked like one you might order at Applebees, my chicken was fine just a tad salty. Although the quality of the food was mediocre at best the portion size was very generous. Now, this pregnant lady loves her desert, so I was very excited to try their skillet cookie! We ordered it, it took about 15 minutes to come out as they needed to freshly bake it which is more than fine. Rather than a delicious, gooey chocolate chip cookie, we received a bready, dense, bland cookie. I almost cried. That was before I burned my hand on the skillet because the handle was not properly wrapped. Overall, we were thoroughly disappointed in both the quality, service, and price.

Even though we had a reservation for 12:00 PM, our group of six had to wait about 30 minutes to be seated. When we finally got a table, they put us in a small booth meant for four people. I asked for a bigger table, but was told all larger tables were reserved--yet many stayed empty the entire time we were there. We brought flowers for the celebration, but there was no room for them because the table was so cramped. When we asked if there was a vase or bucket for the flowers, the hostess seemed visibly annoyed, just like she was when we asked about changing tables. Our waitress, however, was wonderful and did her best to make the experience better, which we really appreciated. We were also told that we had to leave by 2:00 PM because of an event, but it seemed like we were the only ones asked to leave, and no event ever happened. To make things worse, the doors were left open, making it freezing cold inside. We were so uncomfortable that we left after only an hour to go somewhere else and warm up. I'm very disappointed. After years of coming here, I expected much better service, especially for my birthday.
