“Bring back the apples! I miss them apples!!!!“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“We had such a great night at Joey, and a huge part of that was thanks to our waiter, Miranda. Her energy was amazing from the moment she greeted us—so warm, friendly, and genuinely upbeat. She was attentive without hovering, always smiling, and made us feel truly welcomed and taken care of throughout the evening. Her service and positive attitude honestly elevated the entire experience. Miranda turned a good dinner into a memorable night. Thank you!“

“Excellent food and service“

“Frank's is my favorite place in town to get oysters on the half-shell. The vibe is warm, relaxed, and welcoming. The bread with ash butter and sea salt is a favorite. The oysters are fresh, plump, and succulent. The champagne mignonette is flavorful and delicate so as not to outdo the oysters. We tried a seasonal dessert: nectarine, rose, and pistachio pavlova. Everything is delicious. Finally, the service is impeccable. We always feel special when we are here and we can't wait to visit again soon!“

“My wife and I have come here for the drinks and occasionally truffle pommes frites or some oysters, but this time we tried some of the other menu items for dinner. My wife got the Halibut (Chapter 6) and I got the Mushroom Pasta dish. (Chapter 5)

I asked Casey if he recommended the mushroom dish and he said it was one of his favorites. I'm not a foodie, so I don't get overly excited over food but let me tell you... It was so good that it prompted me to write a review about it. I actually felt an endorphin rush from eating it! My wife loved the halibut, (which I also tried) and I would say getting her to eat fish is usually a challenge unless her fisherman father prepares it!

I would recommend a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, which Casey also pointed me towards some new Rye to try. Fantastic as always!

I had placed an order for oysters but apparently they were forgotten, but I was so enamored with the mushroom dish that I didn't even care. Casey offered them to me on the house as he felt bad, which was a very nice gesture. I wasn't upset at all!

Now we would like to try all the other dishes, because if both meals were that good, how can they miss with anything else?

I didn't take photos of the food because I inhaled it :)

Thanks Casey and the rest of the staff for great service and amazing food/drinks!“

“Great food“

“Absolutely amazing! Every bite was perfect.“

“Nick's was a delightful stop on my Madison walkabout. Service at the bar was attentive and helpful, and my shrimp cocktail tangy and fresh. Drinks were solid as well. The bar seats could maybe use a refresh though. Vibes inside were definitely neighborhood focussed - felt like Nick's is a local favorite.“

“Love the food and wait staff! Love the total experience!!! Brunch menu is delicious! Thank you my friend Patricia Corr!💙“

“I always have a great time here! The staff are kind and provide excellent service!“

“I just went to Bake's for a birthday celebration with friends. I was not able to book a table online Open Table for 5, but called and someone was very helpful to make it happen. It was a fantastic night of music with Mara and the charm, band was amazing, sound was great, and they even kept the TV on so we can catch the end of game 6 of the NBA Finals (Go Knicks!) Food was tasty, and the service was attentive and prompt. It was a great night out, and I would highly recommend it for a celebration or just a night out.“

“Recommend place 🥰 great Food“

“I've been putting off trying out Off Alley for a while. I could never get a reservation, it was far from my home, etc etc. However, their website said they encouraged walk ins so I spontaneously went one day. I kinda regret postponing it all this time. The menu changes at least once a week (check their insta). It's all written on a chalkboard and it reminded me of the daily specials at the French bistros in Paris. The chef is very down to earth and very passionate about sourcing the food locally. We learned about the cucumber varietals he used from the farmer's market that week and the farms that he sourced the beef tongue and squab from. The sauces are clearly slowly reduced, very concentrated and flavorful. If you want a farm to table, nose to tail seasonal restaurant without the posh uptight environment, this is it! The other benefit is that gratuity is incorporated into menu prices (thank you chef for doing this). I'll admit dish sizes for the respective prices can be a shock at first but it includes gratuity and you're supporting local farmers. It's meant to be tapas style so share multiple dishes. No regrets, we'll be back.“

“visited the Eve of April 2, 2021: Our server was delightful she was warm and offered suggestive drink psirings that were spot on for what we were looking for to compliment our food. The food was absolutely delicious, and the environment very inviting. The whole evening was a lovely experience. I will definitely be back.“

“Needed a quick bite at a decent sit down restaurant with good air conditioning, as is needed during a heat wave. Found this establishment and was not disappointed.

Personable staff and very helpful. Good atmosphere, family dining with separate age appropriate bar seating nearby.

Ordered the South Hill Haymaker and was immediately glad for my decision. Fantastic choice!

Decent prices and clean facilities, good parking.“

“Great service and great food!“

“Excellent staff, excellent menu and food preparation. Bobby has kept some of the staple menu items but offered a different flare that really make them stand out. And check out Bar&Moore next door, great ambiance and flair for before or after dinner.“

“May be one of my favorite places on Microsoft campus. Had great share platters and nice drinks. I recommend their creamsicle mocktail. Was very well suited for a low maintenance but well run happy hour/team event. Very helpful and accommodating staff.“

“Amazing bartenders and drinks!“

“We went for the first time today and had excellent customer service! The food was amazing. We will be back :)“

“Delicious and fresh food. Great wait staff too. Highly recommend it!“

“Great food and friendly staff!“

“The owners are the best. Good service and great food.“

“I requested a special dish that was not on the menu and she hooked me up💪🏾. I even left my wallet and she stayed late for me to come back and get it. I love this place“

“Such an enjoyable meal - happy hour and live music on a Wednesday. Enjoyed the shaded patio table, waiter was great, and such a neat selection of dishes. We enjoyed salads this time but look forward on returning to try out jerk chicken, rose/pistachio dessert... And vegan cheesecake??“

“Award winning staff that never forgets anything to make your stay pleasurable.“

“In.gredients is a standout dining destination tucked inside the Microsoft campus in Redmond, offering a thoughtfully crafted three-course lunch that rotates its menu every few weeks. I like the fresh, seasonal ingredients and creative dishes that feel both elevated and approachable. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between casual and upscale, perfect for business lunches or a special mid-day treat, and the service is friendly and attentive.

One of the biggest draws is the value, $20–$25 per person you get appetizer, entrée, and dessert that often exceed expectations for the price, with standout items like seared scallops, wagyu meatballs, and panna cotta, etc. The space is modern and inviting, and the rotating menu keeps the experience fresh so you can try something new on return visits.

Since the menu changes often and the lunch service is popular, reservations are recommended to secure a table.

Overall, In.gredients delivers fresh, flavorful food with excellent value and a pleasant atmosphere, making it a hidden gem for Microsoft employees and guests alike.“

“Well and Table was the first restaurant where I could eat because I have Celiac Disease. My favorite foods are burger, fries, turkey wings, cobbler, and root beer float. Well and Table is the best place. Heston, Age 6“

“The clam chowder, the risotto and the steak were delicious. The focaccia bread was amazing! Shrimp were a little overcooked. Really nice and quiet patio area. More expensive than we are used to spending on a family dinner, but we were traveling and living it up. Would definitely recommend.“

“Lunch at Mox Bellevue today—and what a surprise. I wasn’t there to game, just catching up with friends passing through. But the space? Total standout. Art Deco vibes, cozy booths, and a game store that feels more like a boutique hotel lounge. I had the Golden Curry & Tofu—Japanese-style curry over rice with potatoes, carrots, tofu, and pickled vegetables. Warm, flavorful, and exactly what I was in the mood for. My friends ordered the Sausage & Pepper Rotini and left just as happy. The only curveball? No mocktails listed on the menu. When I asked, our server looked a little unsure but offered to make a virgin Momotaro with ginger, peach, mint, lemon, and ginger beer. It was fantastic—definitely worth ordering again. Still, a mocktail section on the menu wouldn’t hurt. After lunch I wandered through the shop and ended up picking out a couple of games for our next game night. Couldn’t resist. All in all, a great lunch, great space, and a solid reminder to check out places that mix things up. Overall fun spot. So happy we found this place. Would happily return. Friendly staff, tasty food, stylish space.“

“This was located in the Hilton Garden Inn where me and my wife were staying. The bartender was very helpful and makes a great old fashioned! She was knowledgeable of the city and provided some suggestions on places to go during our stay. I did not have any food but they did have a variety of options. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well.“

“Delicious, healthy choices. You can dine in or take it to go. Great alternative to other fast food places!“

“l love the overall design of the space it feels modern and well put together. The flatbread was delicious, and the beef was very tender and highly recommended. The cocktails were also nice, slightly sweet and tangy, and very easy to drink. The service was excellent, but parking can be quite difficult to find, which is the only downside.Overall, it has a great vibe and is perfect for a weekend date or hanging out with friends. I’d definitely come back.“

“This is a lovely department-store dining experience. We held our book club meeting here. Staff was accommodating; attentive, but not intrusive. Noise level was perfect for an intimate discussion, despite the restaurant being active. Would recommend on all levels“

“This is not a typical Courtyard Bistro, they have a full restaurant. Staff was amazing, Savannah and Patrick. I ate here 3 times during my stay, everything was great. Calamari, Burger, Steak, Quesadilla. Great selection of local beers and spirits, overall a very nice bar selection for a Courtyard. Was not expecting that.
I also spoke with the manager to compliment him on the staff and food. I am hoping my job sends me back here in the future.
Oh and breakfast was also a good value and good food.“

“I love this place!! Great food, Great service, and Great atmosphere! :) Daily specials with a vast variety of menu items and catering options. Plus, gluten free options as well (which I truly appreciate). Must try one of their many yummy smoothies-They customize the 'lean and green' for me and add coconut water, it is my personal favorite! ;)“

“Don't miss this amazing session John Studamire Micheal Miller Greg Fields and Miz Floes bringing you a jazzy Sol session with special guest Miss Naomi Watson“

“I walked in here in September 1982 thinking my shattered life of 15 years was over. Hazel who ran the cafe, a gruff but loving lady made me sit down and have a sandwich and milk. For the next 5 years they raised me, an irritating punk, showing love and understanding beyond measure, mentoring me in the life of recovery and spritual principles of AA until my fledgling wings let me fly on my own to other places of recovery and respite from the storms of life. It's barely changed, has great coffee now and much more food! A meeting is available nearly every hour in such variety and different people your sure to find your place in what will always be my true home! God bless you and thank you Hilltop, with all my heart ♥“

“Outstanding service! Our team's favorite spot to enjoy an offsite lunch - the entire team at 520 delights, dazzles and create a world class hospitality experience. Cheers, Peter Beeson, Coldstream“

“Note that this place is inside the Marriott hotel. We had the Valentine's Day special. 3 course meal with wine pairing is what was advertised. Once seated at our reserved table, the server asked if they could get us a drink. I had to remind them that we had the special. A sparkling rosé was brought to the table. No explanation or info provided about the wine. Salad followed promptly. The main course came out with its wine pairing. Again no description of the food or wine was given. We were not asked how we would like our steaks cooked, luckily the chef knew what they were doing. Food was prepared perfectly with great flavors. Dessert was next. When I asked for the wine that was to be served with dessert, I was told that the wine pairing was only for the main course. I inquired as to why we were given the rosé with our salad since I didn't order it. The server checked with the manager and confirmed that it was only for the main course and the rosé was just a Valentine's Day “treat”. The server ended up bringing 2 more glasses of rosé on the house. Food was good enough for the price to go back. Dress up or down -“

“Everything was great! Porterhouse, ribeye, scalloped potatoes ( potato dauphinoise), lamb lollipops, brussel sprouts, Expresso creme brulee,and cheesecake. That level of food and service usually comes at a price as it does here. Will make it part of my annual week in Redmond though as long as I can afford it.“

“Absolutely amazing food & mimosas! Definitely 5 star service!“

“Came in for breakfast and ordered the steak and eggs with the 10 oz. NY strip. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare, the eggs were buttery and delicious, and the overall meal was satisfying. The only downsides were that the breakfast potatoes were a little too thick and heavy for my taste, and the toast was a bit too hard to chew. Other than that, I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back again.“

“Just went there today with my Boyfriend. Was very impressed by the great service and plenty of delicious vegan/vegetarian options! Definitely going back there as soon as possible! :)“

“A local Seattle friend took us to a seafood restaurant, and the grilled lobster was indeed a masterpiece, Q-bouncing as if it were fighting with my teeth ...... Steak grilled octopus fried squid clam chowder are all this 👍🏻 and the final dessert of caramelised bread pudding was amazing! The meal cost nearly $650 plus a $100 tip, so it was worth it, haha!😁😋😋I'll be back next time.“

“Gordon was amazing! Always checked in with us but not too pushy and we had a great conversation with him and he went above and beyond anything we expected. We come here regularly and this was the best service experience we’ve ever had. Tipped the man 40+ % because he earned every penny!“

“Chicken fried steak is second to none. Friendly service and comfortable atmosphere.“

“This restaurant inside Hotel 1000 was such a great experience from start to finish. The location is perfect, especially if you’re downtown, and the atmosphere feels upscale without being stuffy. Everything felt thoughtfully done, from the ambiance to the food and drinks.

I had the super dirty martini and it was perfect. The tuna crudo appetizer was absolutely delicious, and the steak for dinner was just as good. The portions were perfect, everything tasted incredibly fresh and well prepared, and it honestly felt like a great value for the quality of the experience.

What really made the night stand out though was Aisha. I was dining by myself, and she made the entire experience feel warm, comfortable, and welcoming. She was incredibly personable, so sweet, attentive, and genuinely kind. She checked in at all the right times without ever hovering and made me feel completely taken care of. Dining alone can sometimes feel awkward, but Aisha made it feel effortless and enjoyable. She truly leaves a lasting impression and is a huge part of why I would absolutely come back.“

“Nice and convenient place for breakfast. The service was kind, prompt and efficient. The breakfast was just regular, eggs etc., but the breakfast potatoes were outstanding! Perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, soft and hot inside. Clearly fresh, none of that frozen nonsense. Somebody in that kitchen really knows their potatoes, I was very impressed!“
