Bellevue

About the restaurant

From the owners of Il Terrazzo Carmine, one of Seattle"s most iconic and beloved establishments, comes Carmine's Bellevue. Carmine's Bellevue brings to the east side the same level of quality in service, food, and ambiance that has made its sister restaurant a true institution in Downtown Seattle. Located at 88 102nd Avenue in Bellevue's historic Old Bellevue neighborhood, Carmines is nestled against Bellevue Park. With a rustic, timeless interior, Carmine's provides patrons an escape from the increasingly urbanized way of life. Upscale and elegant, Carmine's feels anything but stiff and pretentious. Good for business meetings, special occasions, or simply dining with loved ones, Carmine's Bellevue is a true destination on the east side.

Friends and I went on a gorgeous Tuesday with the sun shining bright over lake Washington. The setting makes you feel just like you’re on Lake Como in Italy. The food was delicious - three of us had pasta dishes and one had pizza. Kyle was our server and he was fantastic. He shared details about the menu and his favorites. We brought two bottles of wine - a sparkling and a white - to celebrate our friend’s birthday. The corkage fee was $40 a bottle with a two bottle max. It’s higher than most places, usually around $25.
