Super super cute place! Tried out this place with some friends and it was so fun and had great decor! Tennis club vibes with browns and greens! They have courts for rent inside (4? 5?) as well as a few outside for warmer months. Upstairs is a little hangout area for waiting on courts, with a restaurant and bathrooms located on the first floor. They also have a lot of cute merchandise for sale up at the front! We didn't try the food but the drinks were yummy and well priced! The atmosphere was great, with upbeat music playing, great art, and good lighting! We saw a few kids as well so it's definitely a family friendly spot but each court had a full fence around it so there were very little interruptions between courts! Would definitely come back!

While bringing in the New Year, I decided to give pickleball a whirl at SoDo's Picklewood. It is such a great concept and the vibe gives Palm Royale. We rented a private court for $25 a person for 1.5 hours. We were right next to a bar lounge. After several vollies of pickleball, we had lunch at the full-service restaurant while watching the trains drive by. Perfect for a sunny (they have courts outside) or an active rainy day indoors.

What a fun concept of having indoor and outdoor pickleball courts with a restaurant! If you aren't familiar, this place is similar to topgolf, a place where you can relax and hang by playing pickleball and eat/drink! They also have beautiful merchandise as well! I really enjoyed the beautiful clean nice space, the place is spacious, friendly staff, and delicious food. I highly recommend and would come back!

My girlfriend and I called to book a joint birthday party a month in advance. The front desk was very helpful when we called to make the reservations. Unfortunately they said we couldn't book until two weeks in advance. So we called back when it was two weeks until the date of our party. When we originally called they said the courts would be available when we called back. The courts were not available for the timeslot that we originally needed so we had to push our time back an hour. The courts wanted were also unavailable for the timeframe. So we had to settle for courts that were near the kitchen/bar. Lots of traffic with waitresses and waiters, kitchen staff, etc.. I ordered a few appetizers to get started. There was plates and napkins available. We also ordered a few drinks. We proceeded to play a few games of Pickleball and then we came back to eat, and then returned to the courts, when we returned once again all of the plates and utensils were gone when we weren't finished eating yet.. kind of a hassle to get plates and utensils again. Once we all sat down for dinner with a party of 10. After we ordered our food, and received it the waitresses seemed to pretty much disappear and not check on us. The communication was very poor. We needed water, napkins, sauces, etc.. I asked one of the waitresses if there were free refills on the soft drinks, she told me yes. We were charged for all of our refills. They weren't very flexible with options on how to pay when we wanted to split the check. With a standard service charge of 20% I would expect a lot better service. The courts are really nice, very beautiful done. The vibe is great and fun! Pretty disappointed with the quality of service at the restaurant.

Happy hour wings yummmmm

No one…read moregreeted us so we walked up to the bar, looked around and then chose a table across from the bar. Finally a server approached us and offered drinks. We both ordered a drink. My friends ordered beer and I ordered a michelada with modelo. What I like was that not only did the server bring me a Michelada but the remainder of the modelo in a can. My friends dared me to down the modelo which I did lol We also ordered sweet potato tots and it was a huge portions enough for 3-4 ppl to share. I was eyeing the bbq ribs bucket but we were planning on going next door for dinner so I had to pass on the ribs. Dang! If only I had 2 stomachs! lol Until next time, I'll be back for the bucket of rib, Buckley's....

Not a terrible bar and the service was great (thanks Chris) but $13.50 for a bowl of chicken soup…read morewhich became $17.50 after tax and tip is honestly quite heinous even for seattle (I can get a bowl of nice ramen w/pork for less). The 3% extra charge for using a credit card, which honestly isn't advertised very well, is also pretty disgusting as well - like at least be more upfront about how you pass your costs on to your customers. Lastly, the bathrooms are kinda bleh. It's a bar though so i'm not going to be that critical.

Hours and hours walking around Seattle, we were hungry. Locals helped satisfy the hunger…read more People enjoying the bar side of the restaurant while our family of seven enjoyed the restaurant. By the time we had dinner, although hungry, it was past 8 and we needed to eat a little lighter and mostly had apps, so not sure how light that meal really was. Everyone enjoyed their dish. Because it was a bit cold, my younger sister got the fried chicken ramen. Fried chicken was not chicken katsu but fried chicken. The chicken was a bit salty while the ramen had a good amount of spice to it. Ramen broth was really good, especially on a cold night for me being from Hawaii. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the cheese perogies. I enjoy perogies and haven't had any while on this trip to Seattle so a bit of a bummer. It was more like cheese ravioli. However best part of dinner was having the family together. And we ended the night on a good note. And the staff, so sweet. We appreciate you all for accommodating our family. See you all on our next family trip.

Food: 10/10. This is hands-down one of the best Caesar salads I've had in Seattle. The flavor was…read morecompletely mind blowing. I do wish there were more protein added on since you pay extra for the protein but overall, this was a great salad. Definitely filling and worth it. Service: service is great very attentive customer service. Ambiance: I did not expect this eatery to be so spacious. There were people working on their computer. They were folks hanging out with friends for drinks and then there was others just so like myself reading a book or people watching.

If you think all you can get here is bar food, you'd be wrong. There are some amazing proper meals…read moreon the menu that will surprise and delight. Solid beer selection with rotating drafts, and if you're a soda guy, they use all Seattle Soda Company flavors (supporting local business). Had the brisket dinner tonight and that was a very pleasant surprise. Fall apart tender, amazing rich flavor, decadent sauce, with creamy mash. The seasonal veg was brussells sprouts which could have been roasted a bit more to crispy for me but that's a personal preference. This is way more satisfying than the food you'd get at your typical local bar. I've been to The Bridge a half dozen times and every time has delivered. Solid food. Good service. Great outdoor patio. Neighborhood vibes - the type of place where the bartenders know and recognize the locals, and the locals are regulars. I like that. It's a welcoming place, casual, laid back, and though I haven't been there during too many sports games, even when it's on, it doesn't seem to get too rowdy. Brunch is a must do, with options like the Benny flight. Definitely one of the less known brunch spots in my opinion, but even so, can still get busy so go early. Only reason I've done 4 stars is I've had a few times where service was a little slow. Would absolutely return again and again and have recommended to many friends. Keep up the great work team, may you be successful for many years to come.

My best friend and I decided to check out Legion because we kept hearing about it and wanted to see…read morewhat the hype was about. I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.

Neighborhood bar that is casual and so easy-going to stop in and have casual drink if you're not in…read moremood for fancy schmancy dinner places in Lincoln / Bellevue Square. I have to admit I was pretty devastated when Pearl (previous bar in this location) closed down, but ever since I discovered Legion with my friends I have been coming here whenever I'm in the area and this is now my favorite bar. I don't know where they find servers and bartenders but they're the most nicest and funniest people exuding positive energy to customers. Honestly Bellevue crowd can be dry and dull sometimes at other restaurants and bars in the area, Not here! Always good times. If you're just in mood to grab some appetizers and drinks I recommend their wings they got them wings perfected that goes great with beer or cocktails. If you have a group and can't decide on individual drinks, get a Bammarita to share and you will be guaranteed a good time. They make it strong and delicious. As a long time Downtown Bellevue resident and now a frequent visitor, I've seen many Bellevue restaurants and bars that try to do too much and it ends up missing the mark with vibe and service with mediocre food, hefty price. Legion is doing a great job delivering good food, drinks while giving the easy, comfortable neighborhood bar in town. Park in Lincoln Square and just take the elevator or walk across from Bellevue Square!

The Metropolitan Grill or the Met, is a well established steak house in Seattle. It is always busy…read morebustling with conversations and servers racing to deliver food to tables. This steak house has the old wood charm and the layout has a platform floor and a lower floor with alcoves for semi-dining privacy and private dinning rooms. I had dinner in a private dining room with a group to hear lecture about medicines. The servers dress in a chef's like sort and black pants and carry a paper and pad to take the table orders. I had the Caeser salad with a grilled lemon half. I forget the additional Clover added the salad when the lemon is grilled. The dressing had almost Enoch anchovy flavor . The croutons were about on the hard side, but I realized that the croutons were tossed with Parmesan. Now that being said, the croutons were a hard crunchy delight. At some point, some restaurant will make a Caesar salad with grilled anchovy. Now, they served small crab cakes along with bruschetta made with sun-dried tomatoes. Though the crab cakes were beautifully presented but devoid of any detectable crab flavor or noticeable crab. I am a crab cake snob so I was taking a chance. The sun-dried tomato bruschetta was delicious and expected. I thought the sun-dried tomatoes would be overwhelming, but it was perfect. I also had the mesquite grilled Pacific King salmon with lemon chive beurre blanc. The flavor was mild and more on the bland side. Grilled salmon is a favorite of mine, but this may be has the steakhouse has always prepared it and will make sure i try the chicken next time. The mashed potatoes was heavenly and the asparagus was cooked to perfection with just the right crunch to it. Now the Chocolate hazelnut mousse cake was absolutely delicious. I prefer a darker Chocolate when making this, but it was so tasty, not a worry. I do hope to return to try the chicken. Also, the restrooms as near immaculate.
