    The swordfish was amazing. Service was excellent. The pinapple upside-down cheesecake was so delicious I was sorry that I was too full to finish it. We ordered the Dungeness crab bisque. Our server warned us that it was rich. No joke. Yummy, but you could eat it with a fork. Could only eat a bit to save room for diner. But the swordfish *chefs kiss*!

    The bar area was lively and packed with people. Our table in the main dining area was quiet. The food and service were both excellent.

    Late lunch on Valentines Day, not busy. Ordered sushi appetizer that was delivered well AFTER our entrees. Opakapaka was delicious and nicely prepared. Passion Fruit Panna Cotta was fantastic. Fantastic food but service today was off.

    Truffle fries with aioli are the best. Grateful for delicious anniversary chocolate cake and ice cream for our anniversary…on the house. May be my new favorite Bellevue restaurant.
