Best Cocktail Bars in Mercer Island

As always, we had a great time at Bakes at the holiday concert. What an amazing group of musicians!!! The food wasn’t quite as good as hoped. I always have the coconut shrimp. The wu tutu and quality was there, but what happened to the bed of salad that helped make it a meal? The red cabbage (I think) was pretty, but not really for eating. But overall it was a good night. I recommend Bakes Place to everyone!

Wonderful spot for a rainy evening cocktail and bite. Superb staff relaxed w time to tell us of their wonderful offerings.

I was pleased with my soup/sandwich/salad lunch today. All three were delicious. I am still trying to adjust to restaurant prices post covid and post inflation. In the context of these changes, the price seemed reasonable. Service was GREAT. I LOVE that they offer seltzer water as an option to still water. I confess that I cannot hear well any restaurant, so I struggled to hear there as well. I would love to find a restaurant that understood the pleasure of quiet dining and would install fabric baffles from the ceiling or carpet to mitigate all the deafening impact of hard surfaces. If I do go out again though, I would consider coming back here.

We are usally very pleased. Last night however my food took do long to come that my table guests had already finished their meals before mine arrived. We were comped a couple of drinks for the trouble. But this is just something that should be asdressed as its not the first time its happened to us. Otherwise the food was wonderful as always.
