“If you didn’t know it was there already you might have just missed it. Great spot, we had a really nice time! The staff was clearly working as a team and taking care of each other as well as us, everyone was having such a great time, there was an AM birthday party, sports, laughs - good food and fast too! We will be back!“
“Elegant and tonal ambiance with excellent service, great food, and decent drinks. The wagyu tacos and guacamole were amazing, and the servers are quick and attentive. The margaritas were just okay, though, and for the price you'd expect them to be a lot stronger.“
“Went with family during happy hour. Enjoyed salad and snacks.Parking: There is also a parking garage but I don't know if it is free or paid.Kid-friendliness: Outdoor seating with a grassy area and spray park. Kids are welcome inbthe diningroom also.“
“We love going here to eat, it’s nice and fancy but not too pricey and has good sushi. We liked the Sweet Sensation, Mexican ninja, Seattle crunch and skin on skin (in that order). I think the value in a well made California roll is underestimated and oh did they make a mean spicy California roll. Edamame was good too. Not the biggest fan of the scorpion sting and Barcelona sunset.Note: happy hour EVERYDAY (even Saturday) after 9pm and some other midday time. Highly recommend Japonessa.“
“Great place, my wife and I really loved it. It was our first time here and Michaela was an amazing server and a real sweetheart. The gumbo and cornbread was awesome, I don't know who's souther mama is working back in the kitchen, but kudos to her ?.“
“Seriously, it's one of the best restaurants we've been to in Bellevue. Between the service, presentation, atmosphere, etc. and all the staff was amazing and personable.We even had someone from the front desk run down to the garage to make sure we got parking validated or to swipe us out. They have a good tipping/commissions sharing plan so I guess all the workers are well compensated and happy. All the food was amazing too. (We had the specials of halibut and sword fish). Also the drink we ordered was actually done so well.I just want to say, compared to other venues in the Bellevue area who charge similar prices, this one you get what you pay for. Great for special occasions I'd say. Plus they have deals for discounts on special events (birthdays & anniversaries you get I believe its $75 off if i remembered correctly). Also unlike other area steak houses that do charge similar prices - won't name the area Brazilian Steakhouse but I'm sure you'll recognize the name if you look it up in the city - they dont over crowd you. They actually have large tables with space between them so you're never squeezing past anyone.Expect to be billed $100+ a head minimum - we ordered two mains, a sharable, and a single cocktail (worth it). Although the main dishes were plenty. Also the garlic bread to start was so good! We hadn't even left yet and were figuring out when we can come back.Parking: They will reimburse your parking in the garage below or have a valet at the front door.“
“Oh how I love you Nordys. We stop into the restaurant every time we are in the store and it’s always fantastic. Service. Atmosphere. Menu. All great! But the star of the show is the cocktails and food. Billionaire to drink (always) and whatever special soup and Entree they have. It’s a formula for success. Today I had the Salmon Oscar. So very good (as always). Love Eugene and Alicia at the bar!“
“Eager to return to this place to explore more of their offerings. The servers were friendly, and the ambiance was welcoming. Before ordering the paella, we were informed that it would take 30 minutes to prepare, ensuring we were fully aware of the timing. Additionally, the drinks were delightful, adding to the overall enjoyable experience.“
“Very nice hotel. Great breakfast, nice pool area. Large lobby at check in with places to sit while you wait. Restaurant had good food if you don't want to go out looking for a place to eat. Nice outdoor patio area. Safe parking garage on site.“
“Great date spot. Drinks were good. Vibe was nice. Note that it can be a bit loud (not too loud) but enough where you need to speak up to the people you're around with.Drink list was solid and they also offer tea if you want that as well.“
“Such a fine dining ambiance - feels very classy.Service is also very professional.Food is decent. Eggs Benedict avacado was good. So was guacamole and chips.Tofu lettuce wraps and tofu tacos were both great.It’s a brunch place and surprisingly only had black coffee.“
“Tried this place for the first time today and it was fantastic. Phenomenal food and top notch service.I personally recommend the cauliflower fritters, mushroom risotto, or the vegetable stir-fry. Also, for dessert, the chocolate lava cake was incredible.“
