The location is the sell. The overlook of downtown Tacoma and Commencement Bay is outstanding! We had a birthday event so we used the back room for a party of 20. The staff was outstanding with the timing of every phase of dinner.

The dinner was excellent. We all had a different entrees and my dish was the Salmon. The potatoes and beans were seasoned and cooked perfectly.
I believe our waiter was Corey. I asked for a card, clicked on a QR codecand comments mentioned that name. If that was him, he was very attentive but not hovering. He timed his rounds well.
Overall, the atmosphere and vibe was very inviting and we would come back.
The only drawback is the bathroom. One backed up urinal and one toilet for the size of that restaurant is not enough.

A disappointing way to spend NYE.

First, the good: Our server, Doug, was friendly and personable, and was working so hard to keep all of his tables happy…an impossible task given the bad to follow. He greeted us promptly, and was as attentive as possible. The restaurant was voted “Best View 2025” which I imagine is spectacular if it were not heavy fog. Sadly, we won’t experience that view since we will not return.

Now the bad: the kitchen was clearly in the weeds immediately at our 6:30 reservation. We were seated immediately, but it took 20 mins just for a few small pieces of bread, another 10 for the appetizer. We ordered the bisque, but it was sold out by 7pm so we had to switch to the clam chowder. The chowder was nice and thick with uniform size dices of potato and clams. We also ordered the calamari which was exactly what we expected. Now came the long wait of forty minutes before our main dishes arrived. Let me repeat that…forty minutes. My plate arrived looking like a toddler plated…slopped together with severely overcooked salmon and shrimp, and raw scallops. Every item was cold. Every item was under seasoned except the mashed potatoes, which were lukewarm. My dining partner’s main was just as bad. We did not eat the mains after tasting a few bites. Meanwhile, all around us, other guests were fed up, complaining, asking questions, and leaving…seems all were disappointed.

Overall, this was the worst dining we’ve experienced in fifteen years. Absolutely atrocious. We felt terrible for all the servers having to deal with upset guests because of this fiasco. Such a shame.

1/23/26 Don’t bother sharing additional information with the auto response link the chain provides….the information apparently means nothing as you will not receive a response.What a shame that the restaurant group does not actually consider reviews as worthy of response.

This was our first time here. The view is incredible at night, looking over the lights of the city. Very nice for our anniversary.

From the moment we sat down to leaving, the service was great.

We started with the crab & artichoke dip. It was perfect.

My wife had prime rib, which she said was about the best she’s ever had. I ordered the artichoke & crab stuffed Mahi Mahi, which was very good. Both came with mashed potatoes, also very good.

Our waiter told us up front that the kitchen was running behind, so our food took a little while to come.

We decided to pass on dessert because we were full, when our waiter presented us with a dish of cream brulee, with Happy Anniversary written in chocolate on a plate. Very nice.

We would definitely come back here for a special occasion.

We had a wonderful experience here for our Christmas dinner. While the price was a bit on the higher side, the quality of both the service and the food more than justified it. The staff was attentive, professional, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout the evening.
The food was excellent — beautifully prepared and full of flavor. What truly made the night special, though, was the view overlooking downtown Tacoma. It was absolutely stunning and added a memorable touch to an already special evening.
Overall, a fantastic dining experience and well worth it for a special occasion.

Great food and service. I would recommend making a reservation. It is a smaller restaurant. We had the Christmas three course meal. The crab stuffed mahi mahi and rockfeller oysters were are favorite but all the food was delicious. The cocktails are tasty and the service goes above and beyond. The wine list is great. So many options. We had savion blanc with our meal. It paired perfectly. We recommend trying this restaurant.

This place has a beautiful view of downtown Tacoma! The food is good but for the price it was just good but not great. It is the fine dining experience you are actually paying for. I will say that I went on Thanksgiving day and they were pretty busy. Otherwise at other fine dining places I’ve been to the waiter took the time to box my food for me and my drink never went empty before they were refilling. I never once had to look up to. See where the waitress was. They also would normally recommend a menu item and serve the wine table side complete with the cloth napkin. This place however lacked those tiny details that make it a 5 star place. I spent my extra time while waiting for my order YouTubing and practicing my napkin folds. Great place though! I would eat here again!

Happy Hour baby. Sat in the bar next to the windows. Amazing view of Tacoma cityscapes. Nice wine pours and delicious appy’s. Service was excellent. It’s a great place to take out of town guests or meet after work.
And it’s now owned by Landry’s. An upscale fine dinning company.

I ordered the country fried calamari, crab and shrimp fettuccini, and moscato. My friend and I shared the banana bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. The calamari was a bit lukewarm but still tasty; the shrimp fettuccini was a heaping serving size and delish; and the dessert and moscato topped off the amazing view of Tacoma, Washington.

The view is nice. Covered parking beneath the restaurant is great when raining. Service was friendly, helpful though not always available. The steak and prime rib were over done and likely under the heat lights too long. The place is very dated. We had a good enough time and ou friends liked their fish. We aren’t in a rush to return but will come back for the fish, view, parking and nice wait staff. Don’t expect to be wowed however.

Lengthy review, I apologize in advance but I want to make sure all the details are included since this is a not good review.
Saturday my husband and I had a reservation for 6:45pm to celebrate being newly weds, (just got married the day before). We were seated shortly after we checked in. Our server was great, very kind, provided recommendations when I expressed I was having a hard time deciding what to get. Ultimately I ordered the Crab stuffed Mahi Mahi, substituted the mashed potatoes with the Lobster Mac & Cheese, and ordered Crab & Béarnaise on the side. My husband ordered the 16oz ribeye and substituted the mashed potatoes with fingerling potatoes, and ordered a garlic type butter on top of the ribeye. Our entrees arrived and we noticed my Crab & Béarnaise sauce was missing. We then noticed an extra sauce on top of my husbands ribeye, we thought maybe we forgot about the sauce in the description, didn’t think anything of it and my husband took a bite. We realized it was my Crab & Béarnaise on top of his steak. My husband has a shellfish allergy, which is why he did not order ANY shellfish. Luckily he was only severely itchy and super congested, but had no breathing issues/ wheezing etc, thank god. We told them mistake and they asked if they could make us a replacement, we said yes of course. His replacement was incorrect as well, they gave him mashed potatoes instead of his fingerling potatoes. Not wanting to cause more of a fuss we didn’t say anything and he finished his Ribeye. We just wanted to enjoy our first night/ date as a married couple. They brought us a lovely crème brûlée with “congrats” written on the plate, very cute and very yummy. We got the check and we see that we were not charged for the first ribeye that was wrong, but we were fully charged for the replacement. I thought it should’ve been fully compensated but whatever, fine. I paid $200 cash so I’d be able to leave a cash tip for our server since the entire time they were lovely, but we got the change back and it was wrong, i received $25 total no coin change… I was shorted $3 and some change. Yes it was only a few bucks, but at this point we’re at 3 mistakes so I was very frustrated. We walked to the front and I asked for the manager, I tell her the short version of what I previously typed and she said she’d fix it. She ended up giving us $59 in total, comping us more. I told her I appreciated her fixing it even more than I asked. There’s clearly a kitchen issue, especially on high volume nights, per other reviews also. We have always heard amazing things about this place over the years, so having this be our first experience, we were pretty disappointed, and we most likely won’t come back. But we appreciate it being fixed more so after the fact, and the manager still being nice and professional after we met with her.
