Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Bellevue

Absolutely outstanding experience at Oliva. My wife and I dined here for Valentine’s Day and we were very excited with the new opening. Our expectations were certainly exceeded with every aspect of our night. The interior decor and ambience was great, the staff was very knowledgeable and friendly, and the food was outstanding. We decided to skip the big steak and seafood meals and we ordered several of the pastas. We certainly enjoyed the variety and had lots to take home as well. Be sure to ask the server how large the meals are so you’re not caught off guard because some are on the small side and some were very large. This will definitely be one of our favorite restaurants, only dining here one time. We will definitely be back.

David was an excellent server. He was personable and enjoyable to interact with. They were very busy so we had to wait a little longer to order and get our check. He gave us complimentary coffees for the wait. The food is always excellent and the menu has a wide range of prices. We had the Spicy Lobster Tots and split the Chop Chop salad. Both were excellent. My wife had the Cedar Plank salmon and I had the braised short ribs. Both were delicious. The atmosphere is high quality and comfortable. This has been one of our favorite restaurants for many years.
