"A new grill with a range of Pacific Island influences has landed in Bellevue, serving stuff like huli huli chicken, pork laulau, and steak moco for dinner, along with a weekend daytime menu that includes macadamia nut pancakes. It also hosts the occasional ukelele jazz brunch, which sounds pretty cool." - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente

"At Pasifika, the servers say things like “hell yeah, let’s do this” after you order shatteringly crispy lumpia or sticky-sweet BBQ wings. The restaurant may be wedged into a quiet office park in Bellevue, but bright tropical drinks, bouncy reggae, and people celebrating five minutes of sunshine make the place feel like a party.

"Pasifika may be wedged into a quiet office park in Bellevue, but with bouncy reggae, a velvet rope that's just for show, and staff who say things like “hell yeah, let’s do this” after you order each appetizer, it’s got party energy. Even on a random Tuesday at 5pm, this is a great place to drink something bright and tropical after work and split a few things from the extensive menu of Hawaiian, Guamanian, and other Pacific islander dishes. We particularly like the saimin, which has a light broth that clings to springy noodles and matchsticks of Spam. Order a Ha’ani (a mango-hibiscus mojito), share some shatteringly crispy lumpia or sticky-sweet BBQ wings, and let the stress of 405 gridlock melt away." - Gabe Guarente

What a refreshing place to be! Highly recommend this place!! Especially if you want to feel the island vibe and taste some amazing island cuisines! I tried multiple plates and my favorite was the Ota with taro chips and the dessert Pani popo! Can't wait to try more!!! Another must try is their delicious Old Fashion Passion! I love trying old fashions where ever I go and this is by far my favorite. The music is great and I heard they have live music on the weekends. Can't wait to be back!

Bellevue truly needed a spot like this—great island food paired with genuine island hospitality! The ambiance is warm, inviting, and full of good energy. The food is absolutely delicious, and the drinks are crafted to perfection. This is only our second visit, and I already have future dates planned to come back. Highly recommend!

Heads up: This is an extended review and it still doesn’t justify the experience. Our experience at Pasifika Bar and Grill was more than we could ask for. The live music and friendly customer service created a welcoming, cheerful atmosphere with a sophisticated ambiance, setting the perfect tone for a relaxed night filled with good times. The staff went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcomed and well cared for. As someone raised on traditional Pacific Island foods, I was captivated with Pasifika’s twist on classic dishes. They expertly balance authenticity and innovation, paying homage to traditional flavors while introducing other island elements that elevate the dining experience. The dishes were not only comforting but also inventive, giving an experience that goes well beyond the typical island food. Overall, Pasifika Bar and Grill gave us a memorable dining experience in a warm and inviting setting. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality food and an engaging atmosphere that celebrates both tradition and innovation in every bite of the Pacific Islands. Great for professional and wedding events. Recommended Alcohol Drinks: Old Fashioned Passion: My absolute favorite - a perfectly balanced, smoked rendition. The best way to end any day! The bitters beautifully complement the whiskey, and would pair great with a good cigar. Green Tea Shots: just the right amount of sweetness without being overpowering. Loved it! Appetizers: Pork Belly Bites: A family favorite with a perfectly charred skin, flavored fats and a sauce that gave a satisfying kick for spice lovers. Kimchi Wings: Crispy wings paired with a kimchi dipping sauce - an absolute must for any kimchi fan. Kulua Pork Nachos: Light, airy chips paired with juicy kulua pork in a creamy sauce - an amazing combination. Mango BBQ Sauce Wings: Crispy wings with a hint of tangy, mango-infused BBQ sauce. Beef Chop Su’i: glass noodles made the way I like with tender beef slices, giving flavor beyond just soy sauce. Musubi Platter: a mix of traditional spam, shrimp, and katsu - an all-time favorite island comfort food. Entrees: Ota w/Taro: A creative merge of Samoan poke meets ceviche, served with taro chips for an extra island kick. Wish there were options for a tub lol Steak Moco: A sophisticated twist on the classic loco moco, with a tender, flavorful steak - a comfort food elevated to a new level. Huli Huli Chicken: A crowd-pleaser and my husband’s favorite. Shoyu Poke w/Taro Chips: Cousin wanted more lol very good!

Wonderful new place in Bellevue to experience delicious Pacific Islands cuisine! The food was fresh and so flavorful, amazing atmosphere and very friendly staff. Ota with taro chips, Huli Hili Chicken, Pani Popo and Old Fashioned are a must try! We can’t wait to eat here again!

Pasifika Grill & Bar located in the lobby of Hotel116 is a true gem! If I could only eat at one place during a trip to Bellevue, the it would have to be Pasifika Grill & Bar. We have heard nothing but great things since the Grand Opening and boy did it live up to all the hype. It is my new favorite and go to for Pacific Island food. There will probably be a wait to get a table and parking might be a bit tight during prime time but it's so worth the struggle! The atmosphere is awesome and the vibe is one of Ohana (family in Hawaiian). Upon arrival we were greeted straight away and shown a table in the middle of the restaurant with great views of the entire island themed restaurant. The decor is not overly done, but more just right for the feel of the owners! We started off with cocktails which were served quickly and ended up tasting incredible. You have to try both the Mai Tai and also a drink called The Trench! The Trence is one of their signature cocktails that is dark in color but spectacular in taste! The staff are friendly and energetic which makes you feel like ‘you belong’. The Kalua Nachos with crispy wonton noodles is a must have, as is the Pork Lumpia and Pork Belly bites. The Hawaiin short rib is absolutely full of taste and well portioned. The Huli Huli Chicken is another dish that was full of flavor and presentation was spot on! You truly feel like you are in Hawaii or Fiji with the taste of the islands! The staff were friendly and efficient and were attentive for your every need. You can tell by interacting with the bar staff and others that they truly love their job and want you to have the best experience and meal. The restaurant was clean and everyone was willing to give you suggestions on what you should try when we asked. They do serve breakfast and lunch - which I have also heard is wonderful. Pasifika also has Live Music on Friday’s and Saturday’s - which we were able to experience and all I have to say is A++ and fun! Go check out their website and menu - better yet, just head on over and experience this incredible gem for yourself!

I dined in on opening day and I was satisfied! The staff was very welcoming. The restaurant is well lit with a nice ambiance. My server was knowledgeable about the drink menu and was ready to answer my questions about the food. Even staff that weren’t assigned to my table would do a polite check in while walking past. I ordered appetizers that can definitely double as an entree. The pork belly was tender and flavorful. The Kalua Nachos were my favorite! I ordered food to go for my family and they enjoyed their meals (lumpia, Mac salad, short ribs and the musubi platter). Can’t wait to visit again with friends and even book a dinner party.

Pasifika did not disappoint! Will definitely be coming back here again to try other foods! Our server Ani was very attentive and made us feel super comfortable. The Trench was my go-to drink, will try the pika pika next time. The atmosphere was very warm and inviting. There’s lot of space and not too crowded. The bar area had darts and there’s a stage for open mic. You will not be disappointed coming over here.

I've heard from multiple people about how great this new place is so definitely needed to try it. It was as good as everyone says. The service was great, the food was fantastic, and there was live music for our lunch. We tried multiple items on the menu and they were all so good!

Wow, this place is an absolute gem! I ordered the Hawaiian Saimin, and let me tell you, it is delicious! The light broth pairs perfectly with the savory Spam, sweet char siu pork, and bouncy noodles . The bok choy? A clean little hero making sure everything stays smoooth sailing, if you catch my drift. Oh, and there is an egg and tempura shrimp as well. Talk about protein packed! But wait, the food isn't the only star here. The customer service is so refreshing. Uati and EJ are friendly, attentive, and naturally welcoming. Seriously, every interaction felt genuine and warm. The Island standard is top tier. Wish all restaurants had this type of vibe. The atmosphere is laid-back and perfect for lunch. They also have live music on some days so this joint may also be a great place for date night. Big shoutout to the team! Y'all just earned a regular, see you tomorrow!

The food was amazing! Went before actual opening and the owner came and greeted us and asked about our experience and told us a bit about the cuisine. Everything bomb.com would go again 10/10

This is the type of place that needs to exist: good, fun environment with up-beat wait staff all having a good time and taking care of you. The food was great. Pork lumpia with a nice sweet and spicy sauce was a great starter for the Musubi Platter. If you're looking for good food and good people with a relaxed atmosphere, five this place a try.

Food was great. Service was excellent. Ambiance was perfect. Looking forward to coming back!

Hawaiian and Chamorro cuisine mixed is the comfort food you didnt know you needed. We came here on a whim and were instantly teleported to a hotel on Maui. The entrance is part of a hotel so its not the most demure but when you sit down you quickly forget that. We came on a weekend and were pleasantly surprised by live music. Normally I'm not a fan of live music during dinner but the Ohana vibes and pleasant banter only elevated the experience. I was quickly swaying to the riffs of the guitar solo. I ordered the steak loco moco and asked for fries instead of rice. They were very accommodating and the gravy was full of mushroom flavor. The rest of the table ordered the Laulau, Mochiko chicken, and Shoyu Poke... but they finished everything before I could even try it! The owner passed by and checked in on us and gave us a very warm welcome. I'd say the server could've checked on us a little more but between the owners and other staff members we didn't need them anyway. Btw they also have weekend Brunch! Looks like ill be coming back very soon.

I was invited to experience Pasifika Grill & Bar last weekend and was treated to such a warm and delightful experience, from the delicious food and cocktails, wonderful staff, live music (on weekends), pacific islands inspired decor, and a great location inside hotel 116! For food, I tried their loco moco, tinak'tak, carrot cake, and pani popo. For drinks, I tried the tropical paradise, passion fruit martini, and espresso martini. Everything was SO. SO. GOOD! If none of these things have convinced you to come get a little taste of Pasifika yet, then you have to come meet co-owner Angie, who is an absolute doll and such a hospitable host! She made the experience especially memorable, as did everyone I interacted with, like their waiters and bartender, who seriously hooked us up when they found out it was a birthday celebration. Amidst the cold Seattle Freeze, this is a really welcome oasis of pure love and good vibes that you can taste!

Soft opening today, January 3, 2025. Pasifika Grill & Bar is located on the lobby level of Hotel 116. And a welcome addition to the Eastside food and drink scene! I'm just glad there's finally some decent island grub on the Eastside!!! The restaurant is rooted from the many islands dotting the Pacific Ocean, particularly Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia. And the diverse menu is representative of those regions. Our group ordered a bunch of dishes. High notes went to the Empanadas, Chicken Kelaguen wraps, Beef Kelaguen (order it with the Taro chips), Coco Curry Roasted Veggies and Huli Huli Chicken. As for drinks, I had a few servings of the Local Girl, a delicious tropical drink! One of the owners sat down and chatted with us, exuding the island hospitality the Pacific Islands are known for. **Support Local** Biba!!!

Everything was so ono, IT BROKE DA MOUTH! If Pasifika Grill & Bar has been on your radar but you haven't checked it out, drop everything and go asap. My family and I came here for Sunday brunch. I am grateful we were able to get a table quickly. I recommend calling in for a reservation if you want to ensure short wait time/a table. Best way to enjoy a little bit of everything is by ordering family style. What was ordered: Macadamia Nut Pancakes (so fluffy, order it with the Pani Popo sauce) Hawaiian Hog Omelette (Kalua Pork just falls apart) Avocado Toast (So refreshing) Spam Musubi (A classic staple) Tempura Musubi (The shrimp was nice and crispy) Pani Popo (I almost cried because of how good it was) Ota with Taro Chips (Would eat this every day if I could) Everything was so flavorful and gave that authentic island feel. I met Angie, one of the co-owner~ true aunty vibes, and great conversation. Our server was Casey, and she was so sweet. My youngest daughter even gave her a hug because she felt like family. We enjoyed the live music. Just overall good mana. I will be back to basically order everything I wasn't able to order at my first visit.

RUN, don't walk to this fabulous place!!! Only open 1 month, but they are not "new to this. Authentic Polynesian dishes, in a beautiful setting. I loved everything from the moment I opened the door to enter for lunch. The service is great, since it was our first time here (not eating Polynesian food). I asked my server a few questions and she was knowledgeable. We (my daughter and I) made sure to try something from each section so get a thorough review. Drinks: tropical paradise mock tail (so good) and can of Hawaiian Sun 10/10. Appetizer: lumpia and chicken empanadas, 10/10. Main: Huli Huli chicken rice bowl (plate lunch) 10/10. The chicken was moist and tender, the rice had a sprinkle of Nori Furikake seasoning on top- YUM. The macaroni salad is NOT typical or expected. They mix in some goodness that made me wish I had 2 scoops. The homemade kimchi was a nice bonus. Dessert: Carrot cake 10/10 picture a moist mini loaf of coconut packed goodness covered in pani popo (coconut) sauce and chopped macadamia nuts sprinkled on top. Angie, one of the co-owners actually went from table to introduce herself and shared the restaurant's point of view. A really great touch. I can't wait to go back and bring folks with me. Did I mention they have live music???!! Like I said get there.

If you're looking for chill, island vibes - look no further! This place explodes with Pacific Island flavor between food and hospitality - Hawaiian, Guamanian, Tongan, Filipino. We tried a good bulk of the menu and they were all good! Hurricane fries (fries with nori), chicken empanadas (like the classic Chamorro kind, but also different), pani popo bread (sweet bread with condensed milk glaze), macadamia pancakes (just right, not too sweet), Hawaiian hog omelette (with kalua pork), mochiko chicken, beef tinaktak (classic Chamorro dish), and huli huli chicken. Some dishes came with tuna mac salad and while I never had this variation, it was good! The restaurant had very chill vibes and the decor was minimalistic in a good way! We got there when they opened at 11, and by the time we left around 12:30, it was packed! They just opened in January and will do amazing by the looks of it. One of the owners came around our table and introduced herself and told us a little about the restaurant and how it came together. I loved that she was really personable and welcoming! Can't wait to go back!

5-stars for Pasifika! A new restaurant in Bellevue with an island vibe and me any my girls are all for it! Parking - it's a private parking lot that's shared with the connected hotel and the coffee shop. Lots of it but can get packed since the restaurant is new (as of 1/25/25). Ambience - went on a Sat and there was a DJ playing some 90's old school. Definite plus! Hear they're also aiming to do live music on weekends so can't wait to go back for that. Lots of seating and great for groups. They were open to taking reservations at this time. Food/Drink: PIKA PIKA - This has some spice so watch out since it's not in the menu description but "Pika" does mean spicy. Just leave the pepper in your drink for as long as you can tolerate. This was the fave for me and the whole table I was with. Delicious! BEEF KELAGUEN - Loved the texture and flavor, especially the contrast when eating with the taro chips. Great balance on the citrus. Definitely would order again! PORK BELLY BITES - Juicy, sweet umami flavor, and with crispy skin... yummy! SHOYU POKE w/ TARO CHIPS - a classic go-to; seasoning was good. PANI POPO - Sweet indulgence! Better put your order in as soon as you can because they did run out when we went. Literally could've eaten the whole thing by myself. Comes with 6 pcs. If you don't order this, why are you even going or there?! (lol jk) Prices - I did notice some surcharges because the price on the menu was different than when we got the bill. They do have a cash payment discount (stated on the bill) which is likely taking off those surcharges which could be tied to card processing. Service - our server "Daniel" was really nice and amazing! An added and nice surprise touch was that they knew our group were celebrating something and took a moment to have the restaurant do a big "CHEHOO!" Made me feel like I was back home in Hawaii again and this is why I'm certain to go back.

Amazing food and service! If you're going on a weekend they have live music such a fun dining experience.

Stellar Host staff, Superior Bar & Beverage selection, Great Vibe with the Alternate Live Music Singers/Musicians & DJ's---but the FOOD--OMG--that's the true Highlight! It's a "Fusion" menu of Pacific Islander & Asian flavor profile's that are presented so beautifully by a Chef that KNOWS how to Cook with Love! Haven't tried everything on the menu--YET--which is why I will keep going back, but the Huli Huli Chicken, Rice, Mac Salad, and their unique spin on Pani Popo (Coconut Buns) is a new addiction I never know I ALWAYS needed in my Life!:). Couldn't even snap a picture because as soon as they set it down it looked, smelled and tasted too good to think about anything else! Had to borrow pics from their IG!:) Prices are Reasonably Fair with Daily Bar & Menu Specials! You just can't beat the hospitality of the Islanders! You're treated like you're in their home & you are their honored guest! Great for parties, business meals, Date Nights, or hanging with friends! Dinner Reservations highly recommended as they were packed solid on a Friday night! Pasifika is a MUST!

We will be definitely coming here again! The food was great and the service was amazing. (shout out to Christian!) They were so welcoming and made you feel like family! Just remember this NOT fast food! This is food cooked with love and care. This is a place that lets you slow down and be with family and friends. So get a drink or two and be patient, the food is worth it! I loved the island atmosphere! It's a little bright spot on the dreary days!

Yelp
Pasifika did not disappoint! From the service to the food to the friendly and welcoming staff! Owner even came out to greet us and talked stories. We started off with the hurricane fries which were very flavorful. Hubby had the loco moco and I had the huli huli chicken which I've been craving for. We ended our meal with the pani popo which indeed hit the spot! A must try when visiting. We were more than satisfied and we will definitely be back. Mahalo Pasifika!

This restaurant right here needs INFINITE PRAISE. From the minute you walk in, to the experience with your servers I can't deny the beautiful and tastiness of this place! The Live music is so relaxing and a great family dining environment and time for all! The Pork belly bites were to die for and the quickness of everything was shocking considering how hot and fresh the food was. My favorite restaurant in Washington and only a 20 minute drive away from Seattle. The portions are so bountiful and there's flavors here you won't get from any other place here up North.

Jed V.

Yelp
Didn't realize this place was open for only a few days. Me and the wife were the first ones at the restaurant and were greeted by everyone, from the host, waiters, and the bartender. The whole place and staff remind you of the hospitality of the pacific island. Beautiful setup, there are lounge chairs and darts if you would like to just chill. Very spacious and our waiter, EJ, was very kind. Gave us everything from recommendations on food and drinks, to the story of the restaurant. I ordered the island fried rice, spam musubi, and hurricane fries. All were good, but it's the vibes that puts this place out, for me.

Becky B.

Yelp
Our experience was great. We will definitely be back! Food was so good! Service was excellent and very genuine! Ambiance was also very cute and cute lounge area. We had the pork belly, lumpia (was ok), short ribs, coconut buns, ox tail noodles (everything else was great!). Drinks lychee martini, the trench , & passion fruit old fashion.

We heard that a new Hawaiian restaurant just opened a few weeks ago on the Eastside, and we immediately knew we had to go try. Until now, we had to go to Lynnwood for Hawaiian food, and having aloha closer to home is always a good thing. If you are a little tired of the cold wintry Seattle weather, Pasifika will cheer you right up. Located in the lower floor of 116 Coast Hotel, there is plenty of free parking. You can hear the happy Hawaiian music playing as you walk up to the front door. You enter at the lobby level, which is for take-out, and you follow the music down a flight of stairs to the restaurant. On a Sat evening the place was jamming. We were unable to make a reservation online as it directed us to call, but no one picked up. They were busy, busy, busy! A big party of 30! The staff offered us seats in the lounge area where we were able to order food and drinks. Lounge area is comfortable and spacious. We ordered Lychee martini, pork lumpia, musubi platter, and huli huli chicken. The Lychee martini was one of the best ones I've had, it actually tasted like lychee. A tiny bit on the sweet side, but it's to be expected. Pork lumpia was good, tasty filling with crispy skin without being greasy. Out of the 4 types of musubis in the platter, the spam katsu was the best. Rice in the musubi was strangely a little mushy, but for a newly opened restaurant having a super busy night, it's not a big miss. The huli huli chicken was amazing. We had hoped to get mochiko chicken or katsu, but they were not on the day's menu as they are still figuring things out. What it means is we need to come back! Staff was incredibly friendly, even though it was super busy and they must be under a lot of pressure. As we enjoyed our drinks and food, a long line formed outside the door waiting to get it. We felt lucky we grabbed the last couple seats in the lounge. It was a fun experience and we will certainly be back for brunch or lunch.

Absolutely one of my go-to restaurants in the Eastside right now. The whole vibe and atmosphere from the moment you walk in is off the charts. The whole pacific island vibe is real. And then the food... so much flavor and the portions are incredible. The pork belly is so tender and flavorful. The Kalua pork nachos were outstanding (shredded slow cooked porked on top of wonton nacho chips ) Their take on moco loco (steak instead of a burger patty) was crazy. As in crazy good! Literally everything was on point.

Highly recommend this little piece of island heaven. Feels like you're in Hawaii. The food was great, def want to go back and try other dishes but my husband and I had the mochiko chicken, which came with kimchi, rice and Mac salad that had tuna in it, making it even better. I had the trio of tacos and the shell had this chewy and crunchiness that was amazing. Uati was our server and he was super friendly, gave us great recommendations and great service. They have live music every night so we will go back to check that out!

Yelp
This is a niche restaurant with cuisine sorely missing in the greater Seattle area. Great effort has been made to embrace the culture of the Pasifika region. I had shareable pork belly bites. This offering is the absolute best I have ever had at any restaurant, period! Crispy! Fatty! Hint of spice...so good! I moved to the Huli Huli chicken. Moist and tender, this finely grilled chicken rocked! The craft cocktails were prepared by master mixologists and served with flare and panache! Overall, the service, food and ambience were worthy of a trip from the south Puget Sound. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Came here to order food but the staff said the restaurant closed at 8 pm. Was totally bummed. I was looking forward to trying some of their dishes. They need to update their website and Yelp listing. Edit: I was sitting in the lobby surfing Yelp for other restaurants given this one was closing. But then the Manager Eddie came by, apologized for the mix-up with their closing times, and offered to see if anything was still available. To my delight, he cooked up some corn soup and rice, one of the items I intended to order. He even gave me a coupon for a return visit. So, I've upped my rating and I'm expressing my appreciation for accommodating me.

Went there on a whim and wasn't disappointed. Great food. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. Friendly staff. Next level islander food. Will definitely come back.

There was about a 20-30 minute wait and was seated after a party that came in after me. Host was apologetic for the wait. We were assisted by McKenna, who was warm, friendly, and attentive. We ordered corn soup, chicken kelaguen wrap, huli huli chicken, hurricane fries, AND pani popo. The corn soup brought me right back to Guam. The chicken kelaguen had the right amount of lemon and donne. I wasn't a fan of the huli huli chicken but the Mac salad was yummy. The pani popo was delicious and had me wanting more of the coconut sauce. Overall we had a great experience. It's heartwarming to see so many Pacific Islanders in one place. If you want a taste of the islands, I'd recommend!

We had a very great experience here. The service was warm and friendly, it's a family run business. The ambiance is modern with Hawaiian music playing. The tuna poke, kalbi ribs and lokal burger were all very tasty, there were so many things we wanted to try. We tried grandma's carrot cake, sooo yummy. We'll be back for sure!

The pork belly bites literally melt in your mouth! I had the Huli Huli chicken that was super flavorful and filling. Excited to go back and try more!

Please support this local business! Our family LOVED the chicken empanadas, the Pika Pika cocktail, and the Tinaktak. This spot is also great for families (especially families with young ones). It'd be awesome to see some new additions to the menu as well...please consider adding red rice to the menu! :)

I have been here twice in the past week (once for dinner and once for brunch) already and everything is amazing. Definitely try the pork belly bites, steak moco, and Hawaiian Saimin. For breakfast the macadamia nut pancakes are delicious! Oh the Kailua pork nachos! Yum! Also, from the moment you walk into the restaurant you feel welcome. I was lucky to come in when live music was playing, I believe it was Michael Powers. He was playing the ukulele and it really set an island vibe. Some of the guests were dancing and really enjoying themselves. A must go for some relaxing and enjoyable eating and chatting. Highly recommended! Aloha!

Everything was perfect. Honestly. From the genuine island vibe to the menu items. The food felt really light but very fulfilling. Thier signature drinks was a perfect compliment to end an amazing meal. My only regret is not getting past the sharables which only attracts me to return and experience the rest of the menu, but in multiple visits, of course. The experience was very balanced from the staff and the overall presentation. This was a perfect place to wind down and be able to relax with great food, genuine vibes and great conversations. Compliments to the Chef, the staff and especially to Uati, you are truly an inspiration, continue to follow your dreams. I and manifesting a business full of abundance in every aspect. It was truly an amazing experience. Stay blessed and Go with God.

Fun atmosphere... live music. Let's talk food...short ribs! Pork belly...kaluah pork nachos..yes yes and yes!.. I loved my "the trench" cocktail and the wine pricing is a good value. Easy parking... great food... highly recommend
