JOEY Bellevue

Dear Joey, Thank you for an amazing night. Made an reservation for my lady friends to celebrate a birthday. Walked in and was immediately offered complimentary champagne. The champagne was delicious. Our waitress at the beginning was very nice and attentive to us. After we ordered our drinks, it did take a while to get our food ordered. We decided to order another drink, but during that time was finally able to order our food. Our waiter forgot to bring our 2nd round of drinks. The food was hot, flavorful and filling. The environment was inviting at the bar area. The music was a little loud, but it was a vibe. I would go back again and get their famous donuts.

I visited first time at this place as I heard from my friends it’s really worth it! This place is located at perfect heart center of the Bellevue downtown where you can first get good parking. As me and my friends had really good fun in a whole day outside so we wanted that at night to have something lavish fine dine food experience and this place that what I excepted I experienced also. Dine in is as good but we chose to sit outside where they arranged everything so well even in a cold weather. Service staff is really courteous and helpful where they were checking us properly after every meal. Service female staff is very polite well groomed. Only one thing was not good about outside seating that is it’s too noisy and that’s we experienced because of our nearest table who were laughing like on the high level but we also laughed with them and made their night more memorable! Hahaha..! Food and drinks- food is perfect like top notch and drink which I tried Hurricane crush was superb! One of the meal we don’t like it as I felt it was became cold may be because of outside seating where everything was airy but at the moment only female server replaced it with another new one. One of the good thing I noticed where there might be he was manager and if I’m not wrong his name is Cambrien he also came and asked us about food and service and everything. Even at the end I also personally met him and said, thank you for everything what we had it and experienced, he was so nice and genuine. Overall it was amazing experienced and I am being hotelier I got very satisfied! As Cambrien said, you have to come back, sooo yes of course very soon..! :)

Warning: this rating is based on our experiences sitting in the outdoor / tent seating area. It does not represent the nicer interior Joey Bellevue restaurant seems to have. We walked in with high expectations, but walked out with disappointments. Pros: The waitresses and waiters are well trained and courteous. The presentation of the dishes is decent. Portions are decent. Ingredients selection and the fresheness are decent. They do take walk-ins, but be prepared for long wait time for busy nights, or potentially seating in the outdoor area (see the Cons below). Cons (why the 2 stars rating): 1) We were told that the indoor seating would take close to 90 mins wait, or we could be seated right away in the outdoor seating areas which are enclosed and heated. It is inside of a tent, but the heating is too light / insufficient to allow you to remove your jackets / coats. The waitress was nice to allow us to move from a table that was closer to the entrance to one that was at the very inner corner and closer to the heating vent. Still cold. So, if you're not comfortable eating with your coat on, don't dine at the outdoor seating. (BTW, tonight's outdoor temperature is 50 degree.) 2) The dishes we ordered are all heavily seasoned (Korean style califlower, crispy tofu bowl, burger, the house salad dressing, and the Sichuan tofu lettuce wrap). Too salty. I get it that most restaurant foods tend to be salty to give your taste buds an outsized stimulation. But this is like 2 or 3 times more salty (as opposed to 20% more in most other places). So, if your tolerance level for salt is low, this might not be the right place for you. I hope our experience tonight is atypical of what Joey's is known for, and hope that I could be proven wrong in my next visit. But the money we spent didn't meet our expectations of the experiences we received. And I probably wouldn't go there on my own any time soon...

Really cool atmosphere at this location, the service was really good and we really enjoyed our experience. Think high end sports bar and fine dining, odd combination but the blend is classy and seamless. Have already had discussions about coming back to try some different items on the menu and sit in the wrap around booths in the bar. The salmon sushi pictured was amazing, a must try even if your not big on sushi. There isn't really an easy way to explain the flavor but we had to order more it was so delicious.
