According to a recent permit filing, Pasifika Grill and Bar has filed for a location in Bellevue at 625 116th Avenue NE.
A representative of Pasifika Grill and Bar was not immediately available to comment upon What Now Seattle’s request.
While an official opening date and what Pasifika plans to offer have yet to be confirmed, according to the permit filing, Pasifika was filed under Cater 4 You LLC for a spirits, wine, and beer rest lounge and catering permission.
According to Cater 4 You’s website, “We are a veteran-owned and operated company established in 2016 in the City of Renton. During the formation of our company, Cater 4 You, LLC, we knew without a doubt, that Renton would be our home. Not because a few of our members have been longtime residents of Renton for over 20 years, but because of the city’s diversity.”
“In 2017, our company expanded and bought Everest Tea and Coffee House in Renton. It was then we introduced our version of a multi-cultural cuisine. New American cuisine simply put, it’s a type of fusion cuisine which assimilates flavors from the melting pot of traditional American cooking techniques mixed with foreign components.”
“When the opportunity came, in 2019, we decided to expand again into Renton’s once iconic Yankee Grill and Bar. It was a perfect fit! Ray and Santos started their careers as cooks and ultimately understood what was needed to bring back the comfort food flavors Yankee needed.”
“The industry has changed drastically as a result of 2020’s Pandemic. This resonated deeply as we were, just like many, on the brink of closing our doors. With more fight in us, we made the decision to go mobile and therefore, the creation of Mas Pika came to light.”
“Mas Pika is a representation of our partnership and our cultural/ethnic background. Mas Pika meaning More (Spanish) Spice (Chamorro, Pacific Islander) could be taken in the literal sense but to us it means more.”
“We represent the “American Dream” and we are also the Spice in what is known as the “Melting Pot”. With our fusion we bring flavors from Mexico’s southern tip (Yucatan) to the Southern Pacific of Guam and the Northern Marianas.”
