    I try to eat at the Clinkerdagger every time I come to Spokane. About 3-4 times a year. It has never disappointed. The calamari was crispy and delicious. The scallops were perfectly done. And the key lime pie is always a favorite. With my Landry’s membership the price was quite reasonable. It a must try if you have never been there and will soon become a favorite.

    We’ve been here 5 times now. Overall, I rate this place a 3/10. The atmosphere is 7/10. Service was 2/10. Food was 4/10. The restaurant gives old classic vibes but the menu (and food quality/presentation) feels a bit outdated. This restaurant might survive off of the older generation but a refresh of the menu / presentation / service will help it thrive and draw in the younger generation as more & more restaurants open in the Spokane area.

Debbie reserved us a fabulous table at the window for a terrific view, and Vincent went above and beyond in excellent service to assure we enjoyed every moment and were well attended. Thank you to all! See you soon!

    Three of us had Thanksgiving dinner mid-day. Two of us ordered the traditional turkey and one of us had mixed seafood. All three of us thought our food was delicious. It came quickly. Salads and desserts were also delicious. The service was great. The time for everything was very reasonable, even for a restaurant half as full. The staff was on its game at mid-day Thanksgiving. On the way out we stopped and made reservations for dinner on Christmas Day. We have dined at other restaurants for Thanksgiving and Christmas in the past, including Masselow's and Davenport Palm Grill. Clinkerdagger was at least as good, if not better, and the service was as good or better, the food was as good or better, and the environment warmer and more interesting in general.

    Busy but did not seem as though enough staff. Turkey diner just piled on plate with no presentation and only just warm., Expensive for what it was This was a weird experience as this is not usually what happens. The four people party all felt the same.

    Was disappointed in the Thanksgiving day experience. By noon they were out of the ordered wine and french onion soup and the turkey plate option for the entree was cold, dried out and not worth the price. It also took over 45 min to get the food. Not sure what the deal was but the server was awesome if not a bit stressed out. My previous visit the food was amazing so maybe they just had an issue with the holiday prep.

    The kitchen was the problem. The drinks and appetizers were somewhat slow in coming out. They didn’t have French Onion soup and we waited a LONG time for the entrees. The server was very good but compared to other visits this one was well below their normal standards. A two hour dinner with a seven year old seemed interminable.

    Our waiter was amazing but the wait on food was over 30 min and to be served a meal your paying $37 for an entree - there was not that much on the plate! And I’ve been in the bathroom a lot since I’ve been home / so I’m hoping there wasn’t anything in the seafood?? On the other hand I’ve had lunch there and it’s been amazing?? So maybe an off night? Who knows.. but can’t say I’ll have dinner there for awhile unfortunately..

    Always love to eat at Clinkerdaggers favorite restaurant in Spokane. Best food & service every time. Would have given everything a 5 star rating this time except for 3 things. We had a group of 7. Only available time for reservations was 5:15pm. Okay thought maybe it was so they could have time to get the tables for larger groups set up. Wasn’t even busy but they set us squeezed right by the only other bigger group so our server couldn’t even get between our two tables. Then when we tried to leave the parking lot afterwards no one could get out using their new automated parking system and not only our group but many others. Had to go get someone from the restaurant to come out & they couldn’t even get us out. Another patron got us out by opening the in gate.

    It was a great experience from the moment you walk in and are greeted to the service and food quality. We also found they take the cards you can buy at Costco for Landry’s. Which if you plan it right gets you 20% off. We will definitely come back. Thank you.

    This is probably the fifth time I’ve been to this restaurant in the last year. There was seven of us, and we sat in the bar area. Service was outstanding. However, this is the first time that I can honestly say the food took way too long to come out easily over 30 minutes, which seems odd for a Wednesday night. Other than that , no complaints.

    The night started out good. We got a table by the window to see the river as requested as this was our anniversary. We first ordered an appetizer and waited over 30 minutes for it. Then we had to wait over an hour for our food to arrive. My steak was cooked perfectly but my lobster was a little undercooked. My wife had the seafood trio and her scallops were perfect but her salmon was very dry and her shrimp did not taste all that well. They offered desert to us on the house for both of us (one of them was complimentary) so my wife had the crème brûlée. They normally would light it on fire at the table to warm it up but the waitress did not do this so it was cold but flavorful. I got the chocolate cake to go and the brought it in a box. When I opened it, I saw the it was the size of a little cupcake with the ingredients put in little clear cups. I could have taken two bites of this and it would have been gone. I am not exaggerating! I did inform the manager of the quality of the food and she was willing to take off the price of the salmon but I told her it was alright. This was the first time that the quality of food and service was bad. It will be quite a while before we come back.

    Exceptional views, great cocktails, good service but the food missed the mark. Literally everything we ordered was lukewarm. Disappointed to see Swiss instead Gruyere on their French Onion soup with a layer of cheese that was too thick and barely melted. Shrimp were overcooked, Salmon was dried out already, etc. It was obvious that apps, soup and entrees had been sitting under a heat lamp for way too long. It wasn't hot and it didn't look fresh. For the price level, I expected better quality. Have a cocktail and enjoy the spectacular view, eat somewhere else.

    I think this could have been a 5 star experience except our table was right by a walkway and small and very noisy. I could hear everything going on in kitchen. We had no view and my hubby and I like to sit side by side and instead we got this tiny table intended for us to sit across from another. So we just shared the bench seat and sat side by side. Food wise it was ok. Not epic. Fig salad was good but has WAY to many dried cranberries and hardly any cheese. My husband ordered a sirloin and they gave him a filet mignon. It was just not the greatest experience.

    My Favorite Restaurant in Spokane since my Dad first took me here for London Broil in the 1970s! Although it is not on the menu anymore, all the entrees are delicious! I recently had the Asagio Crusted Sole with a Crisp Caesar Salad! Accompanied by a Lavendar Martini. Perfection! Taryn our server was professional and personable! The front desk greeted us immediately and we were seated right away! I give Clinks 5 Stars.
