Gilbert's makes it so easy to keep coming back. First, it's in Old Bellevue so for those of us that like the feel of how things used to be, its the last remaining such area around. Remember the roller coaster behind Nordstrom's? Parking is not ample, but I always seem to find a spot somewhere on Main St. The owner, Steve, is great, as is Christina. Steve always greets with a smile. I've seen him walk the floor and thank people for coming in. I have never been disappointed by the food. My favorite is the Reuben. Piled high enough that I usually split it with my wife. The french onion soup is killer as is the apple pear salad. I've brought clients there on numerous occasions and try to get in there once a week. A very refreshing stop compared to the hectic alternatives on the Eastside.
Pros: Clean and airy
Cons: could be bigger
