The filet mignon steak strips were terrible. Only half of them were eatable.

Prime 21 Spirits Lounge used to be a cigar room, and still has that aesthetic when you visit. Other than the outdoor deck, with views of Bellevue and beyond, Prime 21 is my favorite place in Daniel's Broiler. I recommend for anyone, seeking a more quiet and intimate bar at Daniel's to check out Prime 21. Most recently, we visited Prime 21 on a Thursday for happy hour before catching a movie nearby, and overall, we had a nice time. The happy hour deals are definitely something to take advantage of at Daniel's, as it features discounted wines, classic cocktails and four dollars off of bar specials, which includes the Daniel's burger. For drinks I had a vodka martini and a Manhattan, and shared the seared ahi tuna and the burger. And we ordered for dessert the coconut sundae! We definitely left full, yet satisfied. Food didn't take long to get. The seared ahi tuna was delicious, with a perfect light sear, and loved the ponzu and wasabi aioli with. The burger was solid. It was very juicy, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the entree came with fries. The hefty patty had lettuce, tomato, onion and their own thousand island dressing sauce. I liked that the sauce was light, so as to not distract from the flavor of the beef. It was a very good burger, and would recommend trying if you haven't already. But it's not my favorite burger in town. It's a competitor though. Our dessert was awesome! If you love coconut and chocolate together then the coconut sundae is the dessert to order at Daniel's. The large sundae included scoops of vanilla ice cream, with fudge, covering every inch of the serving glassware that it came in, with lightly toasted coconut shreds. Save room for this dessert! Overall, Prime 21 is a great bar to check out for some high-quality food and classic drinks. Service can get a little slow, and the place fills up for happy hour. But it's one of the better happy hours in Bellevue. See ya there!

Great service and good food. Not the quality of food for the price.
Loved the ambiance. We came on a Saturday night and the bar was very loud. Walking into the Lounge was a much-needed reprieve from the noise. The prices were definitely steep. My husband had a beer and I had a glass of wine. Our bill was $36 after tip. There were a few loud customers that detracted from the overall experience; we may be back for a special date night, but try to come earlier in the evening with the hopes of it being even quieter.

One of the swankiest spots on the Eastside just got better. Twenty-some stories up with intimate seating overlooking the lights of the Bellevue this former cigar bar turned wine lounge, now craft cocktail bar is still providing the same lounged-out atmosphere but now with a great spirits selection. Through the double glass doors from Daniel's always busy and frequently loud bar, Prime 21 delivers calm; this is one of the only bars in Bellevue you could go on St. Valentine's day. Wine is still a presence here. The by-the-glass menu isn't large but isn't a shame with Schramsberg's lower end brut rose and Pride's Merlot - a rarity on glass pour lists. No beer is served which is a delightfully snobby touch for a craft cocktail bar. The Schwartz Brothers haven't gone so far as to ban vodka but the back bar is mercifully clear of flavored Stoli and the cocktail list is bourbon heavy. I hope to see some more gin cocktails when the weather warms. The bar is currently lacking a celebrity bar tender but makes it up with a staff passionate about service and creating a great experience for guests. If the Schwartz Brothers can keep the current team in place and provide them mentoring, a la John Howie, they could be responsible for creating Seattle's next cocktail star (and they'd get an extra star from me too). Given the level of investment corporate food service joints put into their people that's a big "if" but this location deserves as much attention to its people as has been put into the luxe sofas and modern fireplace that make the space so inviting. Food is from Daniels, of course, with a lot of meat heavy items on the small plates list. More vegetarian items would be a good touch for the snacks but the tuna and two different shrimp small plates do well for folks avoiding sliders and steak. Prices on the food items are good and the full dinner menu is available. A lot of reviewers have commented on the prices and though the cocktails aren't cheap they only run about what any high end craft bar is charging these days. On one hand I'd defend Prime 21 by pointing out that they knock $3 off any of the drinks on their menu during twice-a-night happy hours (the second HH starting at 9 PM weekdays). On the other hand: get over it: if you want a Cosmopolitan for cheap there are plenty of bars fitting four people to a square yard but precious few places in Bellevue where the noise disappears, you can find a seat, get a carefully made drink, and take in the sunset.
