6 Best Bistros near Bellevue

“Our table was great for the E. Pruitt show which was a great show. Our server Jenn was professional and did a great job. Arancini and Gnocci and lemon brown butter cake were excellent. The Apple salad had a few too many flavor combinations to it for my liking but it was still good. The space is great and I didn't feel too packed into the space and there was room to move around and the music was well amplified but not too loud. Great experience.“

“The vibes are immaculate. The interior is gorgeous, the staff were super great and so sweet with my kids, the entire menu looks delicious. I’m so excited y’all are back. ❤️❤️“

“Every time we come to visit my son up in WA we make time to come to Brian Carters Cellars where my son is a foundation member. Love the wines here and staff is so friendly.“

“It was my first time dining at this place and I was absolutely satisfied with food taste and quality. Honestly it was great experience. The Sticky Rice dish was my most favorite. Personnel was very friendly.
Waiting time very reasonable. I would definitely be back with friends and family.“

“I took the time to write a message to the absent manager about my positive experience before leaving. A tall African American staff person waited on me over a month ago. I stopped by at around 1030 pm over a month ago to order take out and relax after being locked out of mu car while remodeling my stupid condo for resale. Today I stopped by earlier on a Monday to get the same order after doing tons of errands The same woman stopped by while I was beIng tended by a different staff. She greeted me and remembered that I sat by the window last time. I was amazed. Today was literally the 2nd time that I had ever been there. She recalled what I had ordered. I ordered fish chips to go and a vodka martini while waiting It’s really a great experience to be remembered and is community building I wish I had her name and am sorry I don’t have it Please give her a raise!! She made my dayTWICE“

“Square One Bistro is the best lunch deal in town, in a city with menus listing prices that are routinely jaw-droppingly expensive it's a shock to dine somewhere where the most expensive dishes cost $13.

This is part of the Seattle Culinary Academy in Seattle Central, so it's located inside the school (but open to the public). It can be a little tricky to find, some of the doors to the main building are locked, but keep trying. Once you get in, follow signs to the atrium to get to the bistro or the One World restaurant.

The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the prices unbeatable. Everything is done by the students, and the menu rotates based on what they're studying, but mostly seasonal and locally sources. The only downside is the schedule: since it's student run it's only open during the week when classes are in session, for a small window of time. If you can make that work, you should absolutely check it out.“
