North Shore Lagoon

I highly recommend giving them a visit if you're around the Bothell area. Not only do they have a nice big heated pool, but the food is really good. My girlfriend and I got one of the dinner for 2 platters with the chicken and mango chutney sauce and it was very very good. If you like tiki bars and tropical themes, the atmosphere here is spot on. We had a group of 8 people and the waitress we had was very kind. She was able to give some awesome drink recommendations as well, which a good amount of the drinks on their cocktails menu are all winners. I definitely want to come back. Especially to try more of the drinks!

Stayed at the hotel and they didn’t inform that you had to grab the robes at the front desk. The pool was giant, warm and well decorated. They had all the windows open and it was absolutely freezing inside. We were the only ones swimming. The Tiki Bar was fun. Took forever for the drinks, but they were really tasty. Definitely enjoyed the Tiki bar more than the pool.

Update: Came back with a friend to their main restaurant, which is across the street from Lagoon and had a wonderful time. The service was still on a slower end, however the food was excellent and the server was very nice and professional. The atmosphere was amazing. Sitting by a fireplace on a comfy couch was a cherry on top :) Will be back!

The food here is amazing. I guess you might call it Asian fusion type fare. The place is small and a bit cramped and it doesn't have the best area to sit out you're on the waiting list and it can be a bit cramped inside. However, the atmosphere (the decor is pretty cool!) and the food more than make-up for the negatives.

Made a reservation for Valentine's dinner date with my wife. Got there, couple ahead of us was turned away, presumably because the wait was too long or they did not have a reservation. We came in, said we had a reservation, and were escorted to a sort of closeted table overlooking the pool. I had asked for some privacy, so this seemed like a good sign, even if the table was only about shin high. As we sat, though, my wife mentioned that the people she passed on the way in looked angry. An hour later, we had no entrees, no appetizers, no desserts. I was sure we'd been forgotten entirely. When we did get the waitress's attention, she could only tell us our orders would be out, "Soon." Without a number of minutes provided, I don't think those orders had been started. I would have just left, but my wife insisted we stay to pay for the drinks, until the waitress told us not to worry about those. On the way out, I noticed every face in the place was the same color except for my wife's. I can't say for sure that had anything to do with the poor service or the angry faces on the way in, but it's not a great sign.
