Central Bar + Restaurant

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great spot in downtown Bellevue with a lively vibe and solid food options. The menu has a good variety — burgers, salads, and drinks are all on point. 💰 Price: A little on the higher side, but typical for Bellevue. 👥 Crowd: Busy during happy hour and weekends, but that’s part of the fun atmosphere. 🌳 Atmosphere: Trendy, modern, and upbeat — perfect for groups or after-work drinks. 🚗 Transportation: Parking can be tricky; garages nearby are the best bet. 🤝 Service: Friendly and attentive. Overall: Food and service are great, but I do wish the fries were a bit crunchier. Still, Central is a reliable go-to in Bellevue for good eats and a fun night out.

This place was awesome. Drink selection was amazing. Food was great staff was very attentive. Would definitely come back again.

Everything was wonderful! We got the fish and chips and shared the mushroom fries and everything was amazing! Can’t wait to go again- nice drink selection, nice atmosphere.

We’ve been to this place a couple of times and we liked their setting. We sat in the ally both times, once in winter and once in summer. It was comfortable for us and cozy. The inside of the restaurant looked like it also had some nice decor, maybe we will try get a table inside next time. The food was good as well. We ordered Bagel Boy and Hangover Omelette. The bagel boy was very good. We thought the bagel would be hard but it was actually soft, and filled with melted cheese making it very tender and tasty. The omelette was good though nothing too special about it, just like any other omelette. But it has a lot of cheese which I loved! Overall I think it is a good place for brunch and will likely visit again in the future.

Great spot for happy hour. My friends and I went on Monday. They have $10 happy hour. Great food. Excellent choices for vegan and vegetarian too. Note quiet side but it was Monday.

Nice cosy restaurant. Food quality is very good and the service is kind and fast. The prices are reasonable compared to other restaurants. Personally I find it a little to dark: the combination of less outside light with the dark brown furniture causes some trouble seeing sharp for myself. The rest of the group did not complain about it. Dishes are served in a nice way.

I recently visited the restaurant with a group of friends, and I cannot praise Charlie enough! The service was outstanding, and Charlie went above and beyond to make our lunch unforgettable. He kept checking in on us, making us laugh, and genuinely engaging in conversation. It’s rare to encounter someone with such a warm personality and dedication to their work. This restaurant is truly lucky to have him on your team. We will definitely be back and will be asking for Charlie again. Highly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Central Bar in Bellevue, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. **Grilled Pork Chops:** The grilled pork chops were cooked to perfection. Juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor, they were paired with a delectable mushroom sauce that complemented the meat beautifully. The presentation was top-notch, with a side of perfectly roasted potatoes and a fresh garnish that added a nice touch of color and texture. **Grilled Salmon:** The grilled salmon was another standout dish. Expertly seasoned and grilled, the salmon was tender and flaky, served atop a bed of green beans and rice. The tropical salsa on top added a refreshing burst of flavor, balancing the richness of the salmon perfectly. This dish was as visually appealing as it was delicious. **Service and Atmosphere:** The service at Central Bar is outstanding. The staff are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, with a great selection of drinks to complement the food. Whether you're here for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, you’ll feel right at home. **Overall Experience:** Central Bar is a must-visit for anyone in the Bellevue area. The quality of the food, the excellent service, and the inviting atmosphere make it a perfect spot for any occasion. Highly recommended!
