Diner Reviews
  • "The wait staff was friendly and knowledge about the menu as well as attentive. The food and drinks were great. Well worth the price."
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "Overall two thumbs up. Great food. Restaurant was a little loud thus hard to hear the ladies talk."

  • "No greeting once seated for maybe 5 minutes - Appetizer (calamari) served prior to cocktails - was told they could be put back under the warmer until the cocktails were served - fried food under a warmer/REALLY. Dinners "served" by runners who literally slammed plates to the table - no expression to enjoy; nothing. Advised the server of the deplorable conduct of the runners - she reappears with the "manager"? An offer of desert is made - again "REALLY" - as the empty wine bottle sits upside down in the wine cooler and no one thinks to ask if we would like another bottle - which we did order. $300 meal for 4 with $30 service - someone is dropping the ball here big time - experience lousy at best - too bad because the food is acceptable."

  • "We were looking for good seafood what a pleasant surprise, the oysters were so fresh, the scallops cooked perfectly and the strawberry basil cocktail the best I have had in years."
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "My only complaint with our experience is that we had made a reservation for 8:15 and were not seated until 8:45. The waiting area did not have enough seating for everyone waiting. We were squeezed in like sardines."

  • "For a $130 dinner we were expecting more. Food was good, but not excellent."

  • "Dined at McCormick for Valentine's Day and it was FANTASTIC! Environment, staff & menu were awesome!! Highly recommend the bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer and the stuffed salmon entree' - the salmon just melts in your mouth! Very enjoyable evening & will definitely return!"

  • "We've eaten at this restaurant several times and it's usually really great. Last time we were disappointed but this time it was amazing!! The staff is very friendly. I had the swordfish casino and it was the best I've ever eaten. My husband loved the walleye. We were not impressed with the lump crab tower. In fact, it tasted very "fishy." A little sad that there were no crab legs, but then we wouldn't have ordered what we did and have such an outstanding experience. Topped the night off with the chocolate bag which is dark chocolate, white chocolate mousse and berries. INCREDIBLE! Also, really great coffee to compliment the dessert. Was a little leery to come back after out last experience, but so glad we did!"

  • "I had a 8:45 dinner reservation and didn't get sat till 9:15 and the only reason we got a table was because we sat at the bar. We would have waited another 15-20 min before getting sat. So what was the point of even making a reservation if I get sat 45 min after my reservation. My seafood was good but the steak was dry and head no seasoning. I can cook a plain steak. I'm glad we tried it but we won't go back."

  • "Enjoyed overall experience. Restaurant was running alittle behind because of Valentines weekend. I requested a booth with a curtain and my request was met without me saying a word. The food was just ok this time. We have been to the restaurant a few times and the food was much better. I am sure that the restaurant being packed played a part in that. Service was great and the 3 people works at the bar get a big thumbs up because they were working very hard to keep up with all the drink orders and they smiled while the whole time that we were at the bar!!"
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "The only problem I have with McCormick and Schmick is the fact you make a reservation and you get seated 20 minutes after your reservation time spot. Saturday night they were using the excuse that it was the weather, people were having trouble finding places to park ( they have Valet Parking) and people running late. This has happened every time we have eaten at McCormick and Schmick. and not just this past Saturday night. Correct this !!"

  • "My husband and I enjoyed a lovely 'day after' Valentine's Day romantic dinner with the best food and the best service! The seared sea scallops were outstanding, and we will definitely return!"

  • "For the price, we were not overly impressed with the food. It was okay but not sure we'd go back."

  • "Overall good experience. We were very late for our reservation (we called ahead to alert host's we would be late and they assured us it would not be a problem. Road conditions were poor that evening) When we arrived we were quoted a 20 minute wait, but waited about five minutes. We were pleasantly surprised. Our server was friendly and in tuned to our needs. Our bar drinks did take a little longer than we had hoped (we were almost finished with our dinner by the time our wines showed up) but with the busy holiday, I'm sure the bartenders were swamped. Food was delicious. We hope to visit again for another special occasion."

  • "We had a reservation for 6:00pm and when we got there they said it would be 10 minutes. We did not get seated until almost 6:30pm! What is the purpose of a reservation if the place over schedules and you don't get seated when you were supposed to. I can see a 5-10 minute swing but not 30 minutes! Once we were seated the food was very good and so was the service."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Regrettably over priced compared to today's alternatives. The food generally lacked any memorable flavors or any panache."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "The ambience of the restaurant was romantic the music background was great but not too loud the service and the food was excellent the waitress brought my husband mashed potatoes at his request even though they were not on the menu with his dinner he really appreciated it the scallop dinner was excellent that I had I especially liked the crab potato hash really good! We really liked the wine choices really excellent wine he had white zinfandel and I had the echo domain white wine. The creme brûlée with berries was awesome also!"

  • "My party of 4 had a reservation and we arrived right on time. We found it impressive that our table was ready to go and waiting on us. Service was very good as our waiter was very attentive as were all staff we encountered. I just expected more from the food. It was good but not great and I guess I was expecting great. The bisque flavor was nice but much too rich. When two couples sharing one bowl can't finish one bowl, it's heavy. The fish my wife and I had was cooked nearly perfectly but the seasonings didn't strike me as awesome. As above, good but not great. Overall, a nice dining experience, but for the price, it missed the "wow that was awesome" element. Maybe we just ordered the wrong items on that night. We will try again someday."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "We were seated in a overflow room with little to no ambiance, or bread plates and no salt and pepper. I had filet and shrimp and the filet was less than mediocre, not cooked as ordered and absolutely no seasoning, overall very poor quality for almost $40! The 3 small shrimp were stuffed and at least had some favor. My boyfriend ordered a dry aged ribeye and there was no way it was dry aged. It didn't have the flavor of dry aged or the texture, and again no seasoning. But we began the dinner with a cocktail in the bar. The bar was very disorganized and didn't have the ingredients to make many drinks. I did order the chocolate bag before dinner, last time they sold out, and was able to enjoy that part of my dinner."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Wonderful staff and food! We dine here every year for our anniversary and will continue to every year."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "While they are known for their seafood, my ribeye was cooked to perfection and the rest of the meal was great too. The mushrooms get a call out for being the best I have ever had! Looking forward to my next visit."

  • "Been for a great happy hour and dinners, but first lunch venture. Had birthday points to use. Easy reservations, prompt seating and service request. Had special lunch entrees, wife salmon dish and myself fish , chips and shrimp. Worth the money and more. Aaron our server was excellent and all staff made us welcome. Lunch pricing and service will keep us coming back."

  • "When my wife decided to take a 1 day break from her vegan diet, I was very excited to book a reservation via OpenTable at McCormick & Schmick's for our 19 year anniversary.. I have visited M&S in Chicago and locally in Columbus on two occasions. Unfortunately my wife was displeased with her meal and after tasting it I can understand why. The smoke flavor overpowered her meal and actually made it unpleasant. Although I did come to her rescue and finished the meal for her, i was very surprised since my previous meals have been pleasant. But unfortunately, it was not a pleasant experience for her 1st visit. Hopefully she will give it another try. I do love the atmosphere and there is a good selection for lunch and dinner."

  • "We go there for special celebrations but is a great place for dinner anytime.Have never been disappointed.We request a booth with curtains for the mood and noise level.Also great wine and killer desserts.I had crusted rainbow trout and my wife had scallops cooked just right.They know how to cook fish......."

  • "Had a quick dinner here on Saturday during a cheer competition. All of the food was outstanding, and the desserts were excellent! Server was very nice and answered all of my girls questions!"
    Dined on 2/1/2014
  • "Food was OK. Like many restaurants the menu does not accurately describe the food. If the Parmesan Crusted Chicken has tomatoes as a garnish and mixed into the pasta, put that on the description. They did make another one for me but an accurate description (or information offered by the waitress) would have saved some time."
    Dined on 1/30/2014
  • "I asked my server for a recommendation of a good steak and was given the steak medallion and shrimp. not happy about the portions. I told the server I wanted a nice size steak and what I received was 6 bites of steak and 3 stuffed shrimp along side green beans. I do not like to make a scene so I waited to call The manager to Explain my issue Because the server did a great job with service. I was told she does not have the power to doing anything about it after the fact, all she could do was recommend it to the home office. I spent a total of $50 which is a lot of money to me when a meal is not upto par with the reputation and words of friends. Hopefully the home office can instill more power in its restaurant managers to make it right."

  • "Service was unbelievably slow. Gave our waitor our drink orders twice and they finally came 30 minutes after we were seated. If he called my wife m'lady once more I was going to scream!"

  • "I was appauled when out waiter left our table stating that he needed to leave for the night - but continued serving the table beside ours for the entirety of our meal. Next came the food, which did not taste like we were at a fine dining establishment. 2 plates were sent back were due to low food quality and bad prep. 1 friend decided not to even eat dinner when her "make up" plate returned and was worse than the original. While my snapper with risotto tasted more like a frozen dinner. For which, there was never even an apology uttered from the staff. though my word of mouth gained them 4 additional customers for that night. Their poor service and food quality has eliminated far more potential patrons in our circle of friends and family."

  • "Love stepping into this restaurant to get away from the craziness of Easton Shopping Center. Very intricate dining room with high level of detail. Placemats at the tables were a nice touch. Some tables received complimentary bread, but we didn't, which was a minor negative. But, overall a great dining experience. Restaurant Week deal was unexpected, but we both ordered it."
