I went here for the #GSbash I loved the decor. The seats were lush and cushy. There was a VERY cheesy cover band playing Duran Duran and Copa Cabana. All very cute. All very loud. The one appetizer I had was a yummy slider. I would have thought the event would have provided more. I do not know if that was an organizer mistake or restaurant mistake, but we left after an hour so maybe they worked it out. Heres where it goes down hill: Price! I live in a very nice home and have nice things because I value MY money. $14.25 each for a watered down, over-iced POIRE Tini? One drink! My husband had another off of their (finger quote) special, supposedly Top Shelf, cocktail menu-- with no prices on said menu. I guess that should have been the clue we needed. Total with tax and tip? $35 for drinks that didnt even give me warm, mellow feelings. For that price, I could have bought a bottle or two given the new laws soon to come into effect. Yep, my house has even cozier seats and we can make a 1/2 dozen cocktails for that price. Call me cheap, but Ill be able to put my kids through college. Heh! Also, the chick bartender kept referring to the menu for ingredients and explained they had just come up with these drinks that day, so she didnt know what was in them. For $17 after tax/tip for each one, you better be @#$% expert on them, especially for a social media event. So, based on ambiance, I would definitely give it 4 stars, but I base my reviews on whether I would come back or recommend to a friend, and for that, it gets a resounding NO. Sorry. I hope you guys train your bartenders better and roll back those prices into reality. This is not New York. This is not Vegas, This is suburban Bellevue. Best, Heather Murphy-Raines @scoutshonor

My husband and I went here on a Friday night. Prior to arriving I called the establishment and asked the dress code. The person over the phone told me "its very casual, women in heels and men in nice pants with a nice button up shirt and shoes." We get there and felt like complete idiots!!! I am nicely dressed in heels and my husband is dressed as she explained over the phone and we look on the dance door and people have on t-shirts and jeans with tennis shoes! Now I will admit that we were treated sooo nice by the staff by being dressed to impress but we felt like idiots b/c we were sharp as steak knives and everyone else had on jeans and t-shirts. We left before having a drink or anything else because we felt so out of place. Also, the place is SMALL!!! Dont think I have a ton of elbow room to dance and get loose because thats not the case. Plenty of ppl had drink stains on the front of their shirts because of the place being so crowded. Im not saying this is a bad place to go to have a good time but I am saying this is not the place to go to get extra dressed up.

I made a reservation for 3 and was told there was an $80 minimum by Anthony, I thought $80, thats nothing. Right after we order food and drinks they tell us there is a $250 minimum starting in 20 minutes and we will be moved if we dont meet that. A gal, I am guessing the assistant manager, said she would "let us finish eating", then we had to move. This is without me saying anything, she assumed we wouldnt be spending that much. Let us? Seriously? The pretentious assumption that we were not going to spend $250 was rude. I said its fine we can just leave, then she panicked and said no its fine! The way they treated me and my friends our first time there was poor to say the least. Two of our other friends showed up, they had one drink, we told them what happened and we left. On a note about the place, food is pretty good, decor was cool but showing wear, and music was outdated. I wont be back again.

This place is an absolute joke... a group of us went here to there Halloween party and they overcharged our credit cards and the struggle has been so real dealing with the general manager Catherine she now has threatened me that she is going to call the police because they charged my card without me knowing on 4 different charges . I have asked over and over to speak with the owner of they restaurant and she refuses to give me there information . On top of it they take 20 percent out of everyones individual cards for gratuity a complete rip off . I have never been treated they way I have by ANY restaurant this company should be ashamed to have Catherine as there general manager . I will make sure to be letting all my family and friends to NEVER go here.... This restaurant has stolen money from my friends and including myself and have not even given the opportunity to talk about it.

Rude bouncer !!!!!! First review Ive ever written. I was there with my wife and a business associate,got a table ( after being ignored by the first waitress). Service was slow, maybe because the bottle was locked up ( thats a first for us) . When i picked up the bottle to show my wife how much we had left in it the bouncer ( older white guy ) came and snatched it out of my hand twisting my finger in the process,saying that were not allowed to lift it off the table. Id expect a polite approach if those are the rules, not a frustrated mall cop attitude after spending about 500$ ( tips included). Why is that guy working there? Hes obviously got no people skills. Nobody at my table was wasted drunk,belligerent or a " young punk". I do have to mention that after complaining to the manager the bouncer came back and gave me a half-assed apology. Sorry bud, too little too late.

I went here with my fiance for Valentines day evening. The food took a while to come out, but it was understandable since the place was packed for Valentines day. We had ordered one small plate and 2 entrees. The entrees came out but the small plate didnt, so we told the waitress and she apologized and brought out our small plate and said it was on the house, which was very nice of them to do that. The food was amazingly delicious, the prices were reasonable for a fancy place in downtown Bellevue, and the service was great! Whoever their Chef is, I hope they never change! Plus their music choice was decent, not the typical top 40s. We had a great experience there!

I usually have a nice time here, but last night me and my girlfriends were kicked out for sitting on the back of the sofa. The security was rude and said dont sit on my furniture like that as if we were children. As we exited they had four more police officers surround us while we discussed our concerns with the manager. The manager could not explain where in the company policy it says the proper way to sit on the furniture. We felt shunned and disrespected. We all work for three top companies in the Seattle area and will be sure not to promote this establishment for personal or corporate functions. We will take our jimmy choos elsewhere.
