Favorite Restaurants on the Eastside

We call “the Eastside” anything  on the East side of Lake Washington, so this would apply to cities such as Bellevue, Redmond, and Kirkland.

There are plenty of nice places to eat in Bellevue within walking distance of the Summit hotels. In fact, some of the hoity-toity restaurants were the places of previous exclusive PG Evening dinners. Examples of these are:

But I prefer a more relaxed atmosphere. Here are three examples that I visit regularly for lunch, two of which are next to each other! These are about 5 miles from the Summit hotels.
