This bar was within a mile from a hotel I was staying at whilst in Redmond. It's a solid dive bar, friendly locals and plenty of good local beer on tap. I could see myself going again when back in town! read more

I met a friend recently at Daman's and had a great experience. The staff is awesome and welcoming. They have a great menu and selection of drinks. I didn't partake in the pool tables, but look forward to that in future visits. Parking is easy, as there were spots all over out front. The food was great, and would greatly recommend. read more

Great place to watch a game or play pool with good food and friendly servers. It can be noisy but that what's expected in a popular place like Daman's. Highly recommended ! read more

Cool place with great food and friendly service. This is a "dive bar" type place but my coworkers and I loved it. I had the California Burger with onion rings and a Drunken Monkey drink. The burger was delicious! Great, homemade flavor to the meat and cooked perfectly. The drink was yummy too. Will definitely go again when back in town. read more

Came on a Monday so our pricing was good. Ordered the poutine (if poutine is on the menu, always order poutine!!) and the plate was gianormous. It fed two people. Drank a delicious draught beer on special pricing. Service was courteous and not overbearing. Had a great night. read more

I dig a good dive bar, which Daman's Bar and Grill is. I've passed by Daman's countless times and always wondered what's up with this corner spot in an outdated business strip in the Bel-Red area. Yet my curiosity finally caught up with me when my friend and I decided to check it out on a Saturday late afternoon. It was what you'd expect from a dive bar, which is not a bad thing. We came here for happy hour, when appetizers and well drinks are discounted. My friend and I shared nachos with our drinks, which didn't take long to get. Nachos were A-OK. The portion was huge, so was great for sharing, but they weren't amazing or anything like that. It's probably something I wouldn't order again since the chips were kind of stale, ground meat was overcooked and not as cheesy as I like my nachos. My friend really enjoyed them though. The drinks were where it's at and most likely why you're coming here. Our bartender was awesome. She was super chill, no-bullshit kind of deal, and made the drinks with heavy pours of booze and will customize to your liking. I like spicy bloody marys, which this one had a hint of. Plus, bloody marys on weekends are discounted, so why not? Daman's was a chill spot with music that you can play from a touchscreen that you can select and pay on. Bartender was cool AF and the crowd was friendly. You can tell there are regulars here, which is always a must for any dive bar, in addition to the pool tables. I'd come back with the homies. read more

This place is quite expensive for what you get. If you're liking for more of a dive bar, this will fit the bill when it comes to the environment (older furniture, pool tables, small TV's above the bar, stuff like that). But the prices - especially for food - are a bit higher than a regular dive bar, even though it still tastes like dive bar food. If you're into pool or need a bar close to the Microsoft campus, this place would be a good spot. read more

Great food and service! The wait staff are friendly and fast. I highly recommend this place.

Not sure who told Jordan they could't serve him unless he ordered food? Everyone does it all the time! Definatly a locals spot where local workers of all sort mingle. 1/2 off after 9PM on Sun, Mon, and Wed. makes it very affordable to eat and drink. Two nice pool tables and APA league on Monday and Wednesday. Food 6 out of 10, serving sizes are big, lunch specials are always good, but price is high for type of bar, but its close to big buisinesses so, they can get those AMX cards. read more

The bar tender (full name Kathryn Riggin) said she couldn't serve me because I wasn't buying a meal as well. Just wanted a shot and a beer... 2 extremely bad experiences at this place same bar tender. read more

I was so excited for go to my boyfriend's most frequented spot for lunch when he was still working in the office pre-covid. And wow I LOVE IT. We came before Halloween and I loved how they decorated the tables not being used instead of just having them blank or with ugly tape! So cute and festive! Also can we talk about my wine pour?! Can all wine pours be like this? And he always raves about the food and it definitely lives up to the hype and the pickles he always talks about!! SO YUM!! Just look at the pic! Also, best bloody mary EVER. It was so flavorful and not too watery. I will definitely be coming back for more of those and the food. And the service is just incredible and so quick even though just one person running the whole place! read more

Fun dive bar with some cozy ambiance. Service is decent and the food is pretty good. Got the Philly sandwich and onion rings and both had just the right amount of flavor. Onion rings were crunchy and crispy good selection of beers available. read more

Bar itself is good, my friends favorite. Not very Poppin or busy but good vibes and can get a drink fast. *nachos 3/5 (Huge) *wings 3/5 -if you're drunk and want lots of food for the price nachos is a good bet. Pretty good and plenty of toppings. Pretty good once you're tipsy that is -wings I almost gave 2.5/5 because they were average but could have been more tender and could have more meat on them. Would not do wings again read more

Would not recommend the tacos. The carne asada tastes and looks just like roast beef, I think they just use the extra roast beef from sandwiches. The tacos are kind of like street tacos but made with flour tortillas which is weird. Guac was actually pretty good but chips were awful. Clearly out of a bag and stale. The French dip was also bad, terrible bread and old. Service is slow, the restaurant is dark and super loud. Would try the burger cause that seems to be their thing. Will not come back. read more

I really enjoy this place. The food is good, staff friendly and kind and the vibe is chill. I often like to meet up with friends here. I've not explored the menu too much as I always get the southwest egg rolls. But have tried the poutine and it was yummy. Can't wait for the quarantine to be over sonI can get back to this place. read more

I've gone there a couple times. Nina was amazing but the other European named girl wasn't. There was a guy there that insulted me politically and she defended him. He actually wanted me to go outside to beat me up. What kind of person would support that? Then he glared at me endlessly. Won't be back. read more

Cool atmosphere for a neighborhood bar. I've gone here a couple of times for drinks and for food. One of the times was during the World Series. There was a good amount of people present and watching some MNF and baseball. I wanted some wings but was conflicted about the flavor. The server convinced me to try the house special sauce which was not a bad idea! I thoroughly enjoyed them, and the wings were pretty big! Also ordered the carne asada fries, but whoa, where was the carne asada?! It was just fries with some cheese sauce and very little minced meat. A bit disappointing since the carne asada I know from San Diego typically have a good portion of meat! read more

I came to town for work, and saw this place going to Panda Express to get food. So I figured I would check it out. The first night was perfect. The whiskey burger was, and the service was ok. So the next day I figured I would go back. Got to playing pool, and the guy I was playing pool against made a comment. When I asked him what he said he stuck the cue stick into my throat. After defending myself the bartender Mia kicked me out and allowed him to stay even after I told her what actually happened! This is bullshit that I get kicked out and he is allowed to stay when I was the one defending myself! Update for this review. I think I am going to look into legal counsel for this incident. My throat is hurting due to having a cue stick stuck into my throat. After being a victim of an attack, being accused of being the attacker, kicked out due to accusations, and then being acted like I was the attacker. I believe that this business needs to wake up to what can happen for the nights that they setup for 1/2 off nights! This business will be hearing from my attorney! read more

A large group of us came to visit in a weekday evening to celebrate a work event. The staff was very accommodating in helping us push some tables together while still maintaining social distancing and maximum capacity. The drinks were delicious and the tater tot nachos were too! It was a lively place with pool tables, sports etc. I would love to go back and we all really appreciated how welcoming and helpful the staff was with our large group! read more

Over priced for what you get .. got a burger Sadly would have liked a quarter pounder at McDonald's more. Server very nice and atmosphere great.. read more

I feel almost personally offended that Daman's rating is as low as it is. My husband & I live in the area and this is our local spot we absolutely love. The space is actually much bigger & cozier than you'd expect from looking at the outside, and is well-appointed with bar games. The service has always been friendly and attentive, whether it be happy hour, dinner time, or late into the evening. The food is bussin, like better than most restaurants in the area, with generous portions too. We've had fun with karaoke on Saturday nights too. Highly recommend the spicy Philly & the totchos, tho the whole menu is great. read more

Amazing customer service, food could be better. Tried the burger felt a little dry, tater tots not bad. I may have caught them on a bad day. read more

Not sure if its an off day, but I came here with a fairly large party and the food was without a doubt, Jurassic portions. I'm talking about, each entree could feed two no problem. This places portion size is gargantuan but the quality is really low. The service I had during lunch was also really slow. They only had one waiter for the entire plcae. There were about 15 tables with only one person taking care of all of them. I don't the waiter stopped even once from running around. I felt really bad for her. Hopefully they hire more people for their front of house. read more

After checking out another place that had poor service and somewhat lame atmosphere, we remembered we had been here in the past and enjoyed it. Once again an enjoyable time. Good food, excellent service by Nina, and a fun crowd. We'll be making this a more regular stop! read more

Honestly I was having a great time and we step outside, have a smoke and they are complaining about tips and we haven't even finished drinking. Our services weren't completed and they asked for tips is crazy! Food haven't tried but based on food / service pretty trash! read more

This is an example of a business that take care of the business not their customers. You get a table, servers are around. You make eye contact with one, bad luck, she has other tables assigned. I see another server, she sees me but avoids eye contact. Probably she's busy. Time goes by, the first server sees me again, no care, help other customers that just arrived. My potential server looks busy carrying just one empty glass from the patio. Those customers that arrive later already have beer and nachos on the table. I do have nothing, not even a "your server will help you soon, she's busy now". I left. After 10 years going every Friday I probably will give them another chance but many places to go around. read more

I have been going to this place for many years, as a former MSFT employee and then traveling up here in MSFT supporting roles I found this place probably 10 years ago. Overall this is a fantastic place to eat. I love their Cobb Salad, always a huge winner with warm and tender chicken and their house made Blue Cheese. The burgers are great, i was in town today and still on my darn low carb diet and having a salad for lunch I had to have a burger. So I got it sans bun (wrapped in lettuce) and with side salad. GREAT!!! The burger was so good, the bacon was excellent and the service was great. If your in Redmond, you should go. read more

Update my review. This time I came on a Sunday to watch football, not many people though. Ordered spicy shrimp taco, love it, each taco had 4 or 5 shrimps in it which was a lot, and it was so fresh and tasty! A lot good beer options. Good place to watch games! read more

My friends and I came for the Hawks' game last night and I wouldn't object to going back. Service was alright but we did have to track our server down a few times. Considering the fact that she was the only one on the floor, I didn't mind too much. I ordered the California burger while my boyfriend ordered the Caesar wrap. The burger was good -- had a really tender beef patty -- although it was slightly on the salty side. The wrap had some good flavor too, but only had a few pieces of chicken (breaded, even though we ordered grilled) and five onion rings on the side. The beer was a bit expensive. We ordered two pitchers, one Blue Moon and the other Mac and Jack's, each coming out to over $15. I don't remember the last time I spent so much on a pitcher of beer. Other than that, Daman's created a nice atmosphere for the football game. All the customers, as well as the employees, were in their Hawks' best (jerseys, t-shirts, hats, etc.) and we all cheered together (annoying the ONE Niner's fan sitting at the bar). It was a good time. read more

Went for dinner and drinks with my cousin last weekend and ended up at Daman's (which is one of her favorite local places). Service: Great! We were given a menu and waited on almost immediately. No complaints there. Decor: Typical bar scene - pool tables, televisions, and booths. Food: Meh. Reason for the deducted star. I got the Reuben Rolls which were just okay. The idea of the house made sauerkraut (I think that's what it was) attracted me, but they put so much on there that it covers up the taste of the corned beef. Or the corned beef was just bland... Not sure. Drinks: They make their Jack & Cokes pretty weak. :( I might be back just because my cousin loves it here, but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

All I'm trying to do is sit here and drink in peace. But I have to listen to this shitty death metal from the juke box that the bartender sends to have no control over. I'll do a Metallica song now and again, but this is ridiculous. This isn't Spokane. Leaning towards two stars though cause the bartender is somehow pulling off a 3-sizes-too-small pink t-shirt and is pouring strong. Plus since it's Bellevue so there's some tasty eye candy. Okay, there's some Fleetwood Mac going now. I'll stick around for a bit. Still only 1 star though. No bar should have more than a half dozen metal songs (just the classics) in the juke box. Unless it's in Spokane, then by all means... read more

My husband and I have been regulars here for at least 5 years. They always has great food and good selection of beverages. People there are pretty low key and laid back. Kate is an incredible server. She is very talented in remember every single details of customers food and drinks no matter how much you want to modify food and drinks. They always come out from the kitchen and bar on point. Their food price is on the high end for a sport/ dive bar but worth it. What can you do, it's next to Microsoft and in Redmond. :) However if you go on Wednesday or Sunday after 9, everything is half off. What a great deal! They are a fun spot to chill out after work or have a good meal and beverage. read more
