Nice little cafe with a modern aesthetic located near Bellevue downtown park. Can get very busy so plan to wait or just order to-go. There is complimentary parking in the garage next to it; the code and app you need are inside the cafe. The cafe has seating but can get full quickly, so might be hard to find during busy hours. The sandwiches are the main food and are very tasty. They felt worth the value. The bulgogi is definitely worth a try. They have macarons too, which are a little pricey but still tasty. Overall a nice place to grab a bite or drink, do some work, or simply enjoy the city vibe. Definitely recommend!
I really wanted to like this place from what it looked like, but it was ultimately pretty disappointing. I think most cafes that are aesthetic have a 50/50 chance of not actually being good.We got a chicken sandwich, ham sandwich, mango banana smoothie, and an iced water. The sandwiches were fine (they got them slightly wrong), but they're kind of overpriced for what they are. The mango banana smoothie was warm when we got it, and also only really tasted of banana. And we didn't even get our iced water. They were really overwhelmed with orders and didn't know what food belonged to what order.Overall, just not a great experience. I probably would not come here again.
Super cute Korean cafe in Bellevue! I got the specialty tiramisu latte and bulgogi sandwich on a Saturday. Luckily we got there before a huge crowd came and was able to find a small table.The latte was sweet and flavorful (which I like) though some people may find it too sweet. The bulgogi sandwich was tasty & filling. I loved the mayo topping and thought the meat’s texture was perfect, though I wished it had a bit more flavor.In terms of ambience, the Korean aesthetic is so on point with beautiful white tile, marble tables, and so many plants! Overall nice spot to visit for lunch, though I’d avoid going during regular lunch hours if you’re in a rush. It’s a small spot and our food took a while to get to our table.
Environment: 5/5;Food: 5/5; Coffee: 4/5;Service: 2/5.Came here with my friend for the first time. We ordered bulgogi and chicken(spicy) sandwiches, both taste good. However, we found hair in the chicken one and got a replacement, no refund. It was Saturday 10am, the wait time for food was not too crazy.We also ordered tiramisu latte. It tastes good but too sweet to finish the whole cup, and it took >20 minutes for the coffee to be ready. They messed up the order and double charged us for the coffee. Staff are super friendly tho.
I wanted to love this place. I’ve had semicolon in New Jersey and always a place I’d wanted to go back!Got a Tiramisu Latte and Chicken Sandwich. I’m pretty sure you don’t add water in lattes but that’s how it was served and the chicken was not even cooked properly. Quality is definitely sub par. Sadly, recommending not to anyone.

Semicolon is a lovely cafe in Downtown Bellevue, bright and modern. It has wall windows, stylish tables and stools, lively houseplants above an Asian style curtain door for the kitchen behind the counter. I got there on a weekday morning shortly after they open, so I was the only one there.My latte was good, and my jaw dropped when I got the breakfast sandwich. It's a thing of beauty, almost too pretty to be consumed. When I did make up my mind to "destroy" the beauty and taste it, I didn't regret at all. The bulgogi beef is well marinated and flavorful, the veggie is fresh and the special sauce is creamy. It was the best breakfast sandwich I had in a long time.I returned a few days later with high expectations, only to get a little disappointed this time. The Tiramisu Latte didn't stand out and the bacon breakfast sandwich wasn't as gorgeous as the one I'd been craving in my head over and over even since that first visit. I went back yet another time on a Sunday and the cafe was packed with an "Instagram crowd"–if you know what I mean. The whole vibe was quite different from the way I liked it, so I left without getting anything.I still fancy Semicolon's breakfast sandwich, and I'd love to get another latte from Adam, the barista from my first visit. But I have more realistic expectations now, and for sure I'll avoid lunch time especially on a weekend.
Yummy sandwiches! Got the Lox and Chicken sandwich. Thought the Lox was better but just depends on your preference (chicken could of been spicier). Also got a matcha latte, but it was okay…the flavor was good but it was luke warm.Overall thought it was a good place to check out and will recommend it to others to try, but will not go out of my way.
Follow me on instagram for more reviews @angelgoffneytravelsI absolutely love when my friends find new places to eat at. I'm definitely a foodie at heart lol We came to this cafe in Bellvue. It was super aesthetically pleasing and the workers were so nice. I'm glad I don't live close by because I'd never lose any weight lolOur menu:*HAM*Strawberry Bingsoo*BELT (x2)*Tiramisu LatteThe breakfast sandwich was so delicious. The toast was nice and buttery, the eggs were fluffy and the meat was perfect. I switched & got the BELT sauce on my HAM sandwich and it was amazing. It was my first time trying bingsoo and wow. It wasn't too sweet (which I loved) & there also was some delicious cheesecake bites and fresh strawberries in it. If you're ever in the area it's definitely worth the stop.
I love this place. The ham sandwich is so good. It looks small at first but it's very filling. I also love the consistency of quality across the few times I've been there.
