DANIEL’S BROILER IN BELLEVUE OPENS "BAR IN A BAR" PRIME 21

Bellevue Steakhouse Offers Destination for Classic Cocktails and High-End Spirits

Schwartz Brothers Restaurants is pleased to announce the newest Eastside destination for classic cocktails, hand-selected bourbons, bottle service and more. Prime 21 at Daniel’s Broiler in Bellevue, Wash. provides upscale and classic cocktails in sophisticated and inviting atmosphere.

Set on the 21st floor of the Bank of America Building in a space formerly occupied by the Daniel’s Broiler Vintage Lounge, Prime 21 offers the feel of a modern-day speakeasy. More than 50 bourbons and 40 scotches line the glass shelves, including James Pepper 1776 15-year-old rye, Bat Masterson’s Rye, George T. Stagg, William Larue Weller and E.H. Taylor Straight Rye. Each barrel of house bourbon is hand-selected in Kentucky by President and CEO Lindsey Schwartz and Spirits Director Brad Miller, providing excellent drinking bourbon and an unmatched Manhattan.

“There’s something great about the combination of fine spirits, classic cocktails and a prime steak,” said Brad Miller, spirits director for Schwartz Brothers Restaurants. “We take great pride in the legacy of our spirits program, from traveling to Kentucky to hand-select our house bourbon to creating a sophisticated lounge, which is sure to become the new hotspot in downtown Bellevue.”

Prime 21 Lounge also offers a variety of classic cocktails and Champagnes including Bollinger Grand Annee 1999 and Louis Roederer Cristal 2004. Local and familiar vodka, tequila, rum and gin are also available, as well as small plates and appetizers from the bar kitchen, ranging from specialty bar menu items such as Marsala Chicken Skewers, Prime Steakhouse Sliders and Salmon-Stuffed Endive to classic menu items of Crispy Fried Calamari, Seared Ahi Tuna and Prime Filet Mignon Steak Strips.

Prime 21 was designed by Mesher Shing McNutt of Seattle. The room’s dark wood and onyx backdrop give the room sophistication and elegance and the metal curtains allow for privacy for various group sizes. The one-of-a-kind bar top is natural curved wood made of American Cherry from the Olympic Peninsula and the custom designed couches were produced in Portland.

Prime 21 opens daily at 4 p.m. and is located inside Daniel’s Broiler at 10500 Northeast 8th Street, Bellevue in, Wash. For more information about Daniel’s Broiler and Schwartz Brothers Restaurants, visit www.SchwartzBros.com.
