This space is a distinctive blend of upscale and casual, offering the perfect setting for life's significant moments. From morning to night, Central buzzes as a social hub, captivating patrons with constant activity. Nestled in the heart of the Bellevue Collection, Central embraces a European-inspired alleyway, featuring large Nana windows that seamlessly connect the interior to the outdoors. BAM Alley, adorned with the iconic 8-foot-tall cat sculpture, Swipe, by artist George Rodrigues, is at the center of this lively ambiance. Central's strategic location is flanked by the W Hotel to the south and the Westin Hotel to the north, while luxury residents in Two Lincoln Tower occupy floors 15 through 40 above. Undoubtedly, Central is at the epicenter of Bellevue's vibrant scene. Founded by Bellevue restaurateurs Joseph, Randi, and Cody Brazen, Central ensures its upscale ambiance is welcoming and enjoyable. Drawing from their successful 14-year track record at 520 Bar and Grill, the Brazen family prioritizes hiring talented, engaging, and positive staff. The warm atmosphere at Central, accentuated by beautiful lighting, custom furnishings, and an open layout, immerses guests in a perpetual celebration. Recognized as "2018’s Best New Restaurant" by 425, Central boasts a large catering kitchen and a top-notch Perlick bar. The dedicated "C Team," led by the Brazen family, is committed to making every patron's experience special. Whether it's a romantic first date, a family dinner, a business lunch, a cozy 20-person happy hour, or an expansive 250+ person buyout, Central promises to exceed expectations.
