    We went to celebrate my birthday with family and we had an amazing table with a great view of the water and our waiter was top notch! He even brought me crème brulee with a candle on it! :-). The food was delicious! Everyone enjoyed their meals! Thank you Clinkerdagger for making my birthday feel special!

    Clinkerdagger has long been one of our favorites, although the food our last couple visits had been disappointing, both in quantity & quality. We were happy to find that things have improved dramatically, as they have definitely made some major improvements. The waitstaff was always, and remains, top notch, and we’re happy to report that the food is now back in the same category.

    Our appetizer was burnt, which was taken back and replaced, and it was tepid. In the past it was always hot. My lunch was tepid, vegetables were cold, there was more breading than meat. Ends of the asparagus were burnt as was some of the Brussel sprouts. We had reservations to have dinner here in three weeks, when we are in town again, and we've cancelled them. This is the second meal in a row, here, that was well below their normal standards. It's a shame to see the food quality drop. The only thing that made our meal tolerable was our waiter.

    Our waiter was one of the best we’ve had in years there. He was super on top of things. Food had been better. But still really good.

    The service was excellent. We ate outside. You cannot beat the location and view. We really enjoyed the crab artichoke dip. A member of my group left a jacket, and since I made a reservation, they called immediately and we were able to go back and get it. That was very much appreciated. I believe our waitress’s name was Alison and she was great!

    Brussel sprouts were hard and not edible. The prime rib that I had was supposed to be medium rare and it came out more rare. Steak was also cold.

    Not the service or food we've come to expect from this establishment. While somewhat busy, no more so than any other Saturday evening. A second drink was incorrect, which we did not send back, and the food took 2 hours. The waitress apologized multiple times and informed us that it had been "dropped" and they were remaking it. When we did get it, one order was totally incorrect, and the pasta that came with it had clearly been under a heat lamp for an incredible amount of time, as it was dry, hard, and cold. The halibut was improperly cooked, hard on the outside and underdone in the middle. The manager did apologize and comped both entrees due to the extreme wait. It appears this establishment has "lost a step" as the plants on the patio (what there were of them) were dead or clearly untended, and the staff was very disorganized, with the exception of one bartender we encountered upon first arriving. As we were leaving, several of the waitstaff were congregated outside the front entrance, smoking and chatting. Not something I would expect from what has traditionally been one of the nicer dining establishments in the downtown area for quite some time. Again, the manager apologized profusely and we told him we understand that things happen and that we will be back. It may be a while...hopefully they are back to the Clinkerdagger's we've come to enjoy so much over the years.

    Just back to Spokane dining. Clinkerdagger was excellent, as I remembered. Got my requested table. Excellent service, great food, and a beautiful location.
