520 Bar & Grill

Good food in a vibrant part of old town Bellevue. Everyone was satisfied with their meal. Unfortunately our service was slow but I’d still recommend and return, especially for the outside seating on a beautiful summer evening.

We came here for lunch on a Friday. It's conveniently located for us and very reasonably priced for the neighborhood. The host gave us excellent friendly service. We got a club sandwich and the giant plate sized pretzel. I've had similar pretzels in Bavaria (Germany) and this one was very good, soft and chewy with a delicious dip. The sandwich was fine too. I would come again to try their other interesting offerings. Note they have happy hours when you get a big discount! It wasn't too crowded when we went but I can imagine it can be during busy times due to the intimate size.

I've been here a couple times before and decided to take my boyfriend here for a quick bite. We came here on a Tuesday at 2PM. We ordered the Ahi Tuna Salad and Coconut Shrimp appetizer. Total after tax was $59.76 (not including 18% tip). To say the least we were very disappointed. My boyfriend thought our water had lemon squeezed in it because they were many floaters in the water. We asked the waitress and she said they do not add lemon in the water but she can bring in lemon wedges. That threw off our appetite because we had already drank the water that had many unknown floaters. When serve

Got the 520 burger: the fries were good, but it’s criminal to sell an expensive burger with no sauce. Other than that, the staff was friendly.

The place was nice, especially on a sunny beautiful day in Bellevue area and you can sit outside. I'm guessing they might have live performances once in a while based on the stage look-a-like. But to me, the food was mediocre. Burger was not seasoned enough, bland. I did like the shrimp, but now that I think of the menu it's weird how there's rice and toasts in the plate it's as if the toasts are there to fill up the plate. For location to meetup, this place is great. For food, they need improvements. Service was attentive and friendly.
