    We ordered coffee and were pleasantly surprised to receive French press. To start, we opted for the three-tier appetizer, which featured the most delicious crab cakes I’ve ever tasted, and I’m usually not a fan of crab cakes. The scallops were incredibly tender as well. My husband enjoyed a steelhead entrée accompanied by asparagus and mashed potatoes, while I chose a Caesar salad topped with fresh Dungeness crab. We were both delighted with our dishes and even enjoyed sampling each other’s. This was our second visit, and I have no doubt we’ll return for a third. We dined on Black Friday, expecting a bustling scene with Bellevue Square shoppers, but to our delight, arriving at noon meant we were seated promptly with minimal crowds. They also offer parking validation, which is a nice bonus.

    A Welcome glass of champagne as we entered the restaurant was a lovely and surprising treat. Very special! Food was delicious. Service was very good. Highly recommend. We were there quite early, so noise level may change as the restaurant fills up.
