- JJ PPuerto Vallarta •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe were celebrating our anniversary and we had a wonderful experience and most definitely, we will dine there again. Everything we experienced was top notch: the ambiance, the smell of the wood fired grill, the terrific staff, the impeccable food (my wife had a steak that was cooked to perfection and I had the blackened cod which was unique and marvelous). A great place to dine.More infoWOVEN Seafood & Chophouse by Roy YamaguchiPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Tacoma•4.5

- MMaliaSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoThe food was INCREDIBLE, and the view from the dining room is just breathtaking. We went close to the end of service so they were out of a few things, but there was still plenty of selection and my husband and I were thrilled with our experience. We passed everything back and forth across the table to try each other's drinks and entrees because everything was fantastic!More infoStanley & Seafort'sPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Tacoma•4.5
- CCSeattle / Eastern Washington •4 reviews4.0Dined 5 days agoOur server was very nice. She timed the order so we had plenty of time to enjoy an appetizer before dinner arrived. There were some minor issues with food and drink and I opted not to make a fuss. I hoped for a better dining experience but I made a decision to keep it light and not to say anything. The issues were about quality control behind the bar and in the kitchen. Cheeseburger with no cheese. Beer not cold. First world problems. The turnoff of the night was as we were heading to a show in the ballroom. The ushers were obnoxious. Yelling at the customers, like cattle. No respect. I wish I was their boss. I would have fired them on the spot. Two staff, and one in particular, did not like how customers were lined up down the stairs and the path patrons were taking to access the ballroom. Bear in mind -that’s a facility set up issue, not your customers. Don’t verbally yell at your paying customers, “Up against the wall, up against the wall. No!! NO!! Get UP against the OTHER wall! All of YOU need to be up against the other WALL! I wanted to invite that disrespectful loudmouth to walk down the stairs and talk to us like human beings. It was a training issue. On the upside, the music was great.More infoMcMenamins Elks TemplePrice: Moderate• American• Tacoma•4.2

We were celebrating a birthday and she somehow found a candle for our niece’s dessert! Fun family dinner and dancing.More infoSTEEL CREEK TACOMAPrice: Moderate• American• Tacoma•4
