Joe’s Cafe — Restaurant in Bellevue

Joe's Café is the best smoothie place I have been to, serving some of the best smoothies I have ever had, using all fresh fruit and organic frozen fruit and blending the smoothie on the spot for you! No extra fillers or juices are added, with only a variety of milks (2%, almond, and coconut) and sweeteners (honey, agave, maple) necessary! In addition to the variety of offered menu flavors, you can request any combination of fruits and veggies to blend together for unique custom combinations. The juices are also created fresh on the spot for you and have no added sugar, using only the natural sweetness of the ingredients to make a delectable combination! The smoothie bowls are my personal favorite, offering more smoothie with a thicker viscosity and consistency, allowing easier consumption with a spoon, and a variety of toppings (basil seeds, almonds, granola, coconut, sliced/small fruit) to complete the bowl.

For foods, the store offers a variety of all vegetarian cuisine, with savory spinach puff pastries with and without feta cheese, flavored with onions, peppers, and other spices! This makes for a delicious crisp combo, especially when freshly toasted in the shop! Furthermore, the baklava they offer comes in cinnamon and pistachio and is sweet and nutty without being too overwhelming and messy. The Nutella-filled dough pastries are also delicious and soft, especially when also freshly toasted. Finally, the lentil soup is extraordinarily delicious and flavorful, with potatoes, carrots, turmeric, and freshly squeezed lemon juice giving it a nice sharp bite to the creamy and rich texture of the lentil soup itself. All of the dishes are also homemade, showing an incredible technique and control over all the various flavors offered to achieve a nice balance of saltiness, sweetness, and sourness!

This is a family owned restaurant and the main person there, Joe, is incredibly kind and friendly towards all sorts of customers. I believe his wife makes many, if not all, of the savory dishes, especially the lentil soup, so my compliments to the chef for bringing such delicious food to Bellevue!

There have been several days over multiple weeks where ordering a smoothie with lentil soup and sweet and savory pastries were enough for a filling delicious meal, and I fully intend on returning more in the future! I highly recommend going out of your way to stop by Joe’s Café and try out all the different drinks, dishes, and desserts that it...

Amazing hospitality and customer service. Joe's Café really brought it home, let me just say this hidden gem could be missed if you didn't look hard enough however the moment you walk into this place you will be welcomed like a member of the family. Joe was not short in making great conversations and getting to know myself and the company I brought in. If you get passed the small location and treat it more like a day to day café/juice stand, youll find yourself in a great place. I tried a juice with carrot, ginger, and celery. It was strong and pungent with flavor.

We also tried many of the pastries there, that is a don't miss everytime. I dont care if your not hungry YOU GET THE PASTRIES. Like the homemade family recipes that are kept in lock and...

I stumbled upon this little gem and need to rave. I met the owner, Joe, who said they only opened 4 months ago and it’s been a struggle (mid-pandemic and hard to see shop). I went in for a fresh juice that he custom made to my request. Green juice that was so good! Then I bought his wife’s homemade savory pastries and he gave me a taste of the lentil soup which was amazing. She also makes a baklava in a roll shape that’s not as sweet as regular baklava, thus much better.

Come support this wonderful little local shop with high quality ingredients and...
