Restaurants in Mercer Island

“Fantastic wine selection paired with lovely charcuterie options. Love going there to see Friday evening music, especially when Chris Stevens is playing!”

“Shawn’s bakery is simply the best! Mouthwatering sandwiches, soups and don’t get me started on his pretzel roles. The Artichoke and Pesto sandwich is amazing and the Fig sandwich is over the top! Thank you Shawn for delighting our taste buds.”

“Their lamb kabobs are very good”

“Still thinking about the torta. I’ll be thinking of the food until my next visit. My wife’s taco plate de lengua was delicious. That torta though, I’ve been to hundreds of taco trucks on the west coast. All I had was the torta al pastor and this is definitely in the 5 that’s I’ve ever had! I even told some of my coworkers I’m sorry cause one time we settled for chevron gas station lunch and we weren’t from this taco truck.”

“Small shop but unique pastries and sandwiches, a lovely Chai tea. Space inside is small for seating, but plenty of outdoor seating if the weather is good. The bathroom is large and well maintained but does not have a changing table, and I didn’t see anything especially helpful for families with young children.”

“The food was extremely good! We weren’t disappointed by any of the 5 that we ordered. The staff were very professional and welcoming, and the restaurant design and atmosphere were both top-tier.”

“Great place pizza is amazing, and garlic twists are recommended 100% good prices and the staff are very nice people just great place overall”

“#mylocalseattlehangout It’s important for me to feel at home somewhere, regardless of where I am… to call it my favorite “go-to”. (My home-base is Maryland). These guys really bring some comfort to my stay at Mercer Island. Thank you Jason, for creating a “Crawlspace” for this weary traveler/healthcare worker. I found a place where I can just relax every week (maybe twice a week), and help with some of my homesickness. The food always hits the spot, no matter what I’ve ordered. And the drinks… good stuff!!! My favorites are the spam musibi, the seared ahi, and the japchae with bulgogi! They even have their jokes for me already, and know that I don’t like spicy. GO SUPPORT JASON…like… NOW 😁@the_crawlspace_gastropub … and his awesome team. Shoutout to Ben the bartender too!”

“Kaili is an absolute gem of a human, I really hope everyone who goes to the Roanoke has an experience as perfect, kind and genuine as I! As someone who works in the industry, having Kaili as a server reinvigorated my gusto to provide kind service. I am not one to leave a review, but I would be remiss to not acknowledge such a phenomenal and unexpected service. Thank you, Kaili! Cannot wait to look into the book recommendations.”

“We ate at the Bellevue restaurant! We are truck drivers and go all over the country. This is the BEST Pizza we have ever had! We ordered the Agog Primo with roasted garlic. The crust was perfect crispy and light! BRAVO!! 5 Stars”

“good eats fr type shi”

“Delicious sushi!! Modern, bright and clean. We will definitely be back!!”

“Highly recommend the tofu vermicelli bowl! Not just for vegetarians! The tofu is well seasoned, not deep fried, absolutely satisfying. You won’t miss the meat. Their Vietnamese ice coffee is perfect too, not too bitter, not too sweat, just smooth! My go to lunch spot.”

“Great spot! Enjoyed Happy Hour very much. Aperol Spritz, Margherita Pizza, Arugula Salad & House Red Wine all great! Service was excellent and attentive. Will be back for sure.”

“Good food and good staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Will be back!”

“Excellent service! I been getting my coffee here for the last five years and all I can say is, that is one of the best places to get your morning coffee.”

“Lovely smooth coffee and great pastries”

“Very friendly workers and establishment. Have never had any issues with this location. Recommend!

Vegetarian options: I get the veggie patty footlongs. They do the job.”

“I always seem to catch this place in a rush, and have always been impressed by the way the crew handles everything with professionalism and grace. The waits can be long if there's a lot of orders (their kitchen looks quite compact), but I always see the crew working as best they can and staying positive. I don't mind sipping a beer and waiting. As for food, their fries are flavorful and cooked perfectly, and I love their BLTA! And the atmosphere of a repurposed gas station can't be beat.”

“Great flavor, good food, good friendly service. Portions are smaller than other teriyaki places.. There is wait time during busy hours.

Enjoyable good & service”

“Fresh, fast, and always spot on!

Just Poké on Mercer Island is my go-to for a healthy, satisfying meal. The ingredients are incredibly fresh — you can taste the quality in every bite. The tuna and salmon are consistently top-notch, the rice is perfectly seasoned, and they’re always generous with toppings.

The staff is friendly, quick, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. The place is clean and inviting, and the online ordering is super smooth if you’re in a rush. Whether you build your own bowl or go with one of their signature creations, you really can’t go wrong.

Highly recommend for anyone craving a light, flavorful meal that doesn’t feel “fast food” — Just Poké nails it every time.”

“Great concept. Boasts using local seasonal ingredients. Reasonable pricing. Uses mostly compostable packaging except for utensils. Some products are made in central kitchen though (e.g., soups). Friendly services.”

“Always a great spot to meet and work when I come to visit family on the island. lots of space, friendly staff, open early for east coasters. Thanks especially to Ana who noticed I walked out without my credit card! and had it saved in the safe! Thanks!”

“Amazing food. Tiny family-owned restaurant - had the shrimp fried rice, prawn salad rolls (fresh peanut sauce l) and Khao Soi- among the best I’ve had. Recommend if you’re staying on Mercer Island.”

“I love the Nakid Burrito 🤣🤣”

“Loved their salad and the golden milk. Both were delicious and nutritious 💗”
