“ The food was good! We got the Fried Calamari, Tavern Mac and Cheese, and the Sausage and Pepper Rotini. Both dishes were very cheesy. The calamari was alright, it wasn't eye openingly good but not terrible. There are a wide variety of board games to choose from and a large interior so there is a lot of space. Pretty good place to come with a group of friends and play some board games with good food. ”

“ After our first choice venue got booked out, we decided to host a party in the speakeasy at Mox Bellevue. I'm super glad we chose to do so and our guests really enjoyed the experience! The speakeasy space itself is unique and great. It is set apart through a hidden bookshelf entrance behind the main dining area on the way to the restrooms. There is a portion of the bar with seating dedicated to the speakeasy and two large tables and one smaller one with booth seating. There was enough space for our party of 20 people, but it did feel a little tight when everyone was up and ordering drinks. The recommended capacity on the website is 18 but once everyone settles in and sits down, we didn't have a problem with feeling too crowded in the space. Plates, water cups and pitchers were already set up on the tables once we arrived. I was pleasantly surprised by the food. For an establishment that is known for board games, the food was pretty good. We ordered several rounds of the mexican street fries (my favorite), calamari, and hummus with pita for our guests. The bartenders/servers checked in on us frequently and got our guests' drink orders out quickly. Huge thank you to them! They also provided us with additional plates and forks, and a cutting knife as we brought a cake to share. Pricing was super reasonable and I retroactively wish we had reserved another hour as our guests were having so much fun. If you are looking for a place to host a party in a private space, I highly recommend looking at some of the rooms here. There was a good variety of sizes and pricing and our guests got to enjoy trying some new board games as well. The only downside was parking - it can get hard to find a spot as the lot is tiny but after a certain time, I believe you can park in some of the lots for the neighboring businesses. I just recommend reading signage carefully to make sure you don't park improperly. ”

“ The food is average. The only reason why I come here is to play games. There is food which is nice but don't bet on it tasting like fine dining at all. When I walked in there was only picnic-style seating available. Since I have a shoulder/neck injury and my friend is pregnant, I asked if we could have 2 seats with backs. The waiter quickly accomodated, no questions asked. You can borrow games from the store-side of the building and play them while you eat. It's a great way to test games and meet up with friends. Parking can be a bit nuts so do your best to come early if you're meeting people there at a certain time. ”

“ Fun place on the eastside for the family or large groups. Food is decent and good beer and cocktail selections. Huge selection of board games to check out and the staff is quite knowledgeable and happy help to suggest games. Pricing is a bit expensive but you can sit and play as long as you want. ”

“ My friends and I have been going to Mox for years. It's like going to the library, except you get to try new board games, be loud, and enjoy food and drinks. They also host game events for Dungeons & Dragons and Magic the Gathering. You can borrow up to two board games at a time to bring to your table. If you're stuck and don't know what game to get, they have board game experts there to help you. They'll ask you questions like: "How many people do you have?", "what level of strategy do you prefer?" And/or "how complex of a game do you want?". Most of the time, we've ended up with some great games, but there have been a few games that we'd never want to play again. But that's the fun of the experience! Favorite Games tried: -CDSK Trivia (fantastic trivia game where you choose how well you know a topic and get asked question according to your supposed knowledge level) -Wavelength (given a word and two opposite adjectives, can you guess where the reader put the arrow on a spectrum of opposite adjectives?) -Wits & Wagers (a betting game where you guess numbers and years) -Hues & Cues (a game where you give a word to describe the shade of color on a board). Okay Games tried: -Hanabi (this card game is tough and requires you to be silent throughout the game) -Steam Up (this dim sum game is fun but has a ridiculous 12 page instruction booklet, but the game is actually pretty simple) - Forbidden Island (co-op game with some strategy involved) Meh Games tried: -Canvas (this one is award-winning, but just wasn't for me) -Pusheen The Cat (very low-strategy and mostly just cutesy) Service is always great and the waitstaff are super attentive. The tables and interior are clean. Their cocktails are honestly a hit or a miss for me. The Spicy Margarita Fireflower was one of the worst cocktails I've ever had (thankfully they don't have it on the menu anymore). I tried the POWER OF ENDURANCE ($13) last I was here because I was intrigued by the pandan liqueur. However, I was quite disappointed at how small and watered down it was. Their MEAD and CIDERS are decent though. Oh and their CHAI lattes are great if you're not in the drinking mood. For food, I recommend their FRIES or ELOTE. The fries have a crispy outside coating (like cornstarch) and their elote is just super flavorful. Both are great shareables. Overall: 3/5 for drinks, 4/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere ”

“ This is a place where it's definitely worth checking their event schedule before you go. We popped in on a night where they were having trivia and a puzzle event, so seating was limited. We put our name down on the restaurant list, and got a table in about 45 mins. Once seated, the waiter took our order and wasn't seen again for quite some time. Ended up placing a second drink order and food with someone else, which was fine. No silverware or anything provided, we had to ask another (third) person. It's pretty loud in the restaurant with everyone chatting and playing games, and be prepared for the occasional yell when someone wins. Food is good! I had the chicken bacon ranch and the tofu bites. Both were really good! I wish they had a bigger cocktail menu (there were only 3) but they do have a full bar if you know what you want, along with coffee. Wasn't a fan of their coffee based cocktail, it curdled within minutes. Great spot to buy MTG if you need anything, from sleeves to boosters. They have a good selection. The worst thing about this spot is parking. It's super limited, and depending on the time you go, you cannot use neighboring businesses lots. We went at 6:30, so surround businesses were closed and all was fair game. I circled for about 5 mins before I found a spot. If you like MTG, DND, or playing board games, I highly recommend this spot! It's great! ”
