APEX Everett — Attraction in Everett

Neat multi-floor venue. The concept reminds me of Elks McMenamins in Tacoma but for hosted events only. The entrance is kind of a bottle neck. Only street parking which can be challenging to find on a busy weekend with many other establishments around that also don't have dedicated parking. Bathrooms are nice. Plenty of standing and sitting room for shows on each floor. Well drinks were fairly priced. There's a restaurant in the basement but I was told it didn't serve late night food (at 9pm?) and no bar food but there's excellent pizza by the slice right next door. It looks like a convenience store in a strip mall but the pizza was fresh and delicious. Anyway, I've only been to APEX once and did absolutely no research beforehand so do with that...

I spent $250 for three of us… drinks and appetizers, we sat at the bar. The scallops were not seared, the bruschetta was nondescript at best, the shrimp on the shrimp cocktail was over cooked, the crab stuffed mushrooms were tasteless, but the steamed clams were excellent! The bartender was efficient and while busy was non attentive. The plates were never cleared until my group piled up the empty dishes in front of us… and finally cleared. Overall, not a very satisfying experience for the money. It was a Tuesday and not that busy from my perspective. The lighting and ambiance was superlative. However, this is Everett after all… it seemed overly expensive… I wouldn’t recommend it… try Fisherman Jack’s instead. You won’t be nearly as...

Was a cool old building. Went there with sister for the Flock of Seagulls concert. Loved them. But acoustic sound in that building does nothing for the good music they sing. Sadly. Was hard to hear . Sounded muffled.And having the seating room in one area and vip seats in the main stage area was kind of weird. It should have been just in all one place so everyone can sit. But thankfully. Because of my disabilities and having my sister with me as my help too. We were able to get chairs to sit. Because of reasonable accommodation.. Overall, wasn't a bad place. Just think it could have been organized a little better. Loved all the costumes. People were very creative. It was a pretty calm place and venue...
