Took my dad here for his birthday. He LOVED the steam clams like I expected!! (So good, he kept the sauce for dipping.)
We family style shared the seafood fettuccine (fresh handmade pasta, fresh seafood…so good!), the lambchops (so perfectly cooked to a medium rare), the cod (oh so good…firm and flaky!), the cooked carrots (im not a fan of cooked carrots in general…they were cool… mom loved them!), and the mushroom risotto (loooove risotto!). Dessert, all are made in house! We got one of their cheesecakes and their peanut butter pie. Such a satisfying meal! Thanks!!

Literally the best restaurant I’ve ever been too. The food, the service and setting made for a perfect date night with my wife. This place needs to be studied. Would give them a 6 stars if I could.

Lovely place. I have heard much about it, but the first time we’ve had a chance to go. Best steak I’ve ever had. SO tender cooked to perfection, well seasoned, and the blue cheese sauce was delightful.
Really good desserts too.
We will back!

Gardners is a special place in Downtown Olympia. Family owned and operated. The whole staff there is amazing. We always have a solid meal and enjoy it the moment we walk in the door. This time we sat at the counter since we didn’t have reservations and even at the counter it’s a lovely experience!

We’ve now been three times, over the past three years, and decided on our way home from the last experience that we will not be back.
The food is excellent. Great blends of flavor, new ideas and fresh takes that other restaurants aren’t serving. It feels like a finer dining experience than most places you might go.
Our concern with the food was the price paid – for the size or type that you get. Breaking down the pre-fix menu for valentines day, 1 shared appetizer (crab dip), two appetizer salads, and two entrees (scallops, pork chop) the price was $180 – with no sides for the entree. Throw in a few glasses of wine, dessert, and gratuity, and our bill was $392. Again, while delicious, neither of us felt filled up when we left.
Service is typically good, but in this past experience, we had four different people stopping by the table on average every 8 minutes. It felt like they had overbooked (confirmed possibly with the line at the door on leaving?) and it felt like we were being rushed through courses – with the next course coming out before finishing our last.
Lastly, while ambiance is cute, chairs aren’t comfortable, a simple rolled napkin with silverware, and a small centerpiece. Not bad by any means, but not worth the additional costs.
Like I said, first time we loved it. Second time our food left some to be desired, third time… felt like the price was not worth the experience.

We had an excellent meal! I had the gnocchi and my partner had the bolognese. My only wish is that since they have such an excellent ambience and menu, that they were open for brunch on the weekends! I am a religious observer of brunch and would be here every weekend.

The food and service were absolutely incredible. The atmosphere was perfect for a date—warm, inviting, and relaxed. Our server, Alex, was phenomenal. Even on what appeared to be a very busy night, she made us feel like we were the only guests in the restaurant. She was attentive, friendly, polite, and offered excellent recommendations. Dan, another server, also checked in on us regularly and made sure we were well taken care of. The level of service truly stood out. We will definitely be coming back!

My wife and I went here for our anniversary and it was perfect throughout. The atmosphere was quaint and intimate and when we were seated there was a card on the table wishing us a happy anniversary and it was signed by all the employees (nice touch). From the minute we sat down we had the attention of our server and if not her others step in. The food was AMAZING and perfectly prepared. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice to celebrate our anniversary here.

The best restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. The food was absolutely amazing. Every food combination ended up being so good and matched perfectly together. Will totally come back anytime I visit Washington again. My fiancé and I tried the crab dip appetizer, lamb chops, Dungeness crab gnocchi, fried potato side and their lemon bar. All were delicious.
