This place deserves a better rating than given. Food and service was great. Food tasted delicious and portion size for the price was great and our waitress delivered well. We also didn't wait long to be served.

Food was terrible. Burger was bland, steak was bland and overcooked. We barely ate our food and no one cared to help. Absolutely a waste of $200+.

Solarium Kitchen & Bar offers a subtly elegant dining experience in the Hilton Bellevue lobby. While the space is open to lobby traffic, the ambiance is well-designed with comfortable seating and an airy, stylish atmosphere. The food quality was good and reasonably priced. A solid option for a relaxed meal, whether you’re a hotel guest or just passing through.

Our 2nd time at Solarium. I really like the buffet over the dinner option where you have to pick from a fixed menu). I also liked that they had a good selection of breakfast items. To be overly picky, I think several of the desserts were way too big meaning a single slice of cake was huge. It'd be better to have smaller items that are easier to try out 3-4 and not waste one big slice of cake. Some labels were missing on the desserts so I didn't know what the were. All tasty though.

We were there for Christmas Brunch. Prime rib over cooked. Everything was overpriced for what was offered. Will not try again. Staff was excellent though.

Both the food and the service were outstanding. Because the restaurant is in their open-air lobby with a soaring ceiling, during cold weather the restaurant can be a little chilly. Bring a sweater, but enjoy the experience!

Will not go back to the thanksgiving buffet again. If you do decide to go, make sure to go before 4pm; otherwise, the food is cold, old and rather destroyed. Not worth the cost for what was available.
