Excellent service and food is outstanding for sushi and steaks. My only disappointment is they will not seat you until you are with one additional guest which is ridiculous when you’re dropping $1000 plus the first to arrive should not be made to wait at the bar for the rest of your party when you are meeting there. That didn’t start my experience in a positive light. You need to not do that!!! Really feels unwelcoming

We had Athena as our server, and she was fantastic. Enjoyed the onion soup and Chateaubriand steak for two. It was perfectly prepared, and a delicious dinner for celebrating our anniversary. Other nice touches included rose pedals on the table and a “Happy Anniversary” chocolate on our dessert.

Bellevue

About the restaurant

The Crab Pot Bellevue is a fun and casual restaurant specializing in delicious seafood sitting on Lake Bellevue with a beautiful water view. What makes this particular restaurant famous is its incredible Seafeast. We take a variety of fresh seafood steamed with mouth-watering spices, we pour it out on the table on butcher paper, give you a bibs & tools & let you go at it! There are several varieties of Seafeast available but they all have one thing in common: giant buckets of seafood poured directly onto the table.

For those looking for a more traditional entrée, The Crab Pot Bellevue has a wide variety of menu options. Our menu is made up of fried, fresh, or grilled seafood, chicken, burgers and sandwiches. While the seafood options are delicious, there are plenty of other beautiful dishes as well like the colossal bacon cheeseburger, and grilled or teriyaki chicken breasts with seasonal vegetables to please all. Save room for our famous Mud Pie or 'Cake in the Pan' desserts!

Absolutely loved the food, the drinks were good (best espresso martini I’ve had!) The ambience,especially at night, is perfect with everyone enjoying having conversation over good food in dim lighting, and a small candle adorning the table to provide a warm and somewhat intimate vibe. The view to the water at sunset time is absolutely stunning. The servers were so sweet and attentive but not constantly looming around to ask “how’s everything tasting” while you’re in the middle of stuffing your face hahaha 10/10 would recommend and will definitely come again!

Drinks were innovative, menu was interesting, food was well prepared and tasty although perhaps overly salty. We enjoyed excellent service from all staff we encountered - friendly and competent. Situated on the shores of Lake Washington at Carillon Point, the view is difficult to beat. This is the former Beach Cafe property. The Mexican-themed remodel has made it louder. We were celebrating our anniversary but could hardly hear one another above the constant din. Vibrant, I suppose, if that's what you want - my mistake! Patio furniture is stained and lumpy and so the patio space is not particularly inviting, despite the fantastic views. Nevertheless, it's a good value for the price and probably a good bet for a happy hour with friends but not for an intimate dinner.
