If you’re looking for a bougie night out in Bellevue, is that spot.
Located at Lincoln Square in, is an iconic seafood destination known for its daily-changing menu, pristine seafood, and top-tier service. Yes, it’s on the pricier side — but the freshness, quality, and experience make it worth it. We went all in and the seafood platter and lobster completely stole the show.
What we ordered: • Virgin Bellevue Way Mocktail & Bellevue Way Cocktail • Jumbo Lump Crab Cake • The Grand Ice Shellfish Platter – Wild Littleneck Clams (Long Island, NY) – Hama Hama Oysters (Hood Canal, WA) – Hollywood Oysters (Hollywood, MD) – Baywater Sweet Oysters (Hood Canal, WA) – Farmed Peruvian Bay Scallops with pistachio citrus pesto – Wild Jumbo Brown Shrimp (Mexico) – Farmed Totten Inlet Mediterranean Mussels – 1 lb North American Hard Shell Lobster • Live California Spiny Lobster (1.5 lb) • Wild Alaskan Black Cod • Wild Pacific Bigeye Tuna
From fresh oysters and shellfish to beautifully cooked fish and well-crafted drinks, everything felt elevated. Perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or a luxe date night 🥂
Save this for your next special occasion and book a table at Bellevue — because life’s too short for mid seafood. 🦪✨
Thank you for hosting us!

New café alert in Tukwila ☕️💚

Authentic Asian-inspired drinks, good energy, and a café you’ll actually want to hang out in.
Go check out, grab a drink, and make this your new coffee stop.

#seattle #seattlefoodie #seattlelife #reintroduction #anniversary
has ruined most cakes for me and they are now located in a newer, bigger spot in Seattle at Airport Way!
Visit and enjoy a slice (or whole) cake with indoor seating (and also soon with coffee and cold brew/beer/wine on tap) or browse their merch.
This is hands down my favorite cake shop because they use cream cheese frosting in almost all their cakes and their cakes are on the moist and denser side, so definitely an indulgent piece. Slices run $10-$11 each, so it’s quality > quantity. If you’re not into any of the points above, this isn’t for you.
For white elephant party, I picked up a sample box with:
- Ginger Molasses Stout
- Cranberry Ricotta (fan favorite)
- Salted Chocolate Caramel (best-seller and my personal favorite)
- Roasted Rum Banana
- Lemon Custard
Check out for your next cake craving and let me know which flavor you would try! Flavor offerings can be found on stories and website ✨
