What People Are Saying About Seastar Restaurant and Raw Bar
The Editor

The Scene
An abundance of polished wood and granite, rich fabrics in soothing, refined earth tones--basketball star (and major investor) Gary Payton cut few, if any, corners in design and décor. And Bellevue's classily clad diners, long starved for business-appropriate restaurants, are flocking. The stylish raw bar serves as a much-needed destination for hip duos on dates.
The Food
Head directly to the raw bar to slurp local oysters and nosh on stellar scallop or halibut seviche, or dig into dense crab cakes and cedar-plank grilled salmon in the main dining room. Seafood is fresh to a fault and the overwhelming majority of dishes are done exceedingly well. Don't miss the halibut and prawns with succotash in lobster sauce, or the vibrant tropical fruit salad. There's also a NY steak and seared scallops in two tomato sauces and a pumpkin-seed crust.

I cant say enough great things about this place, its my families favorite restaurant by far. Just had dinner there on Friday night- called at 6pm & got reservations for 7:30! So not only is it fabulous food & service, you can still get a great table with little notice. What could be better! I've tried several things on the menu- all excellent but my favorite so far is the swordfish. If I had to pick a last meal- this would be it.

I came here on my birthday and ordered a spread of nigiri, a kona kampachi appetizer, and an apple crisp dessert. Everything was delicious! I'd never had kona kampachi before and now I can't stop thinking about it! Our server was very attentive and the atmosphere was great.

I've experienced ALOT of bad seafood in my lifetime. But non of it ever came from Seastar. I've always been happy with the meals that I've had there and I am especially impressed with their unique sushi dishes that can only be found at Seastar. The prices are a bit on the high-end for restaurants in Bellevue but it is an excellent place to take a date or some out-of town friends once in a while. The staff are all friendly and quick to help you at your table when you are in need. Make sure to wear something nice (don't look like a slob) and make reservations because this place is usually near maximum capacity. I recommend the swordfish!
