    Service was very slow. Sides were brought out with the salads, so they were cold by the time our meals actually made it to the table. Bonus was the guy peeing outside the window for all of us to see.

    The main reason to go to Cutters is the location / view. We had a great table by the windows overlooking Elliott bay. Service was very slow but friendly. Food is okay - I had the seafood trio of shrimp, scallops, and salmon, all of which were overcooked. Wine selection is good and reasonably priced. Very loud, but fun atmosphere. By 9:15 we were one of only 2 tables left in the entire restaurant. I highly recommend Cutters for views, drinks, appetizers. Go somewhere else for dinner!

    Everything was delicious. They ran out of King Crab so that was disappointing. We had reservations but it would be nice if we could reserve the order as well to avoid this. Gorgeous views & excellent service.

    The steak and mahi mahi were fine. The best part of the meal was the salad and dessert. Service wasn’t very attentive. Probably won’t return.

    Arrived earlier than our original reservation and were seated immediately near a window as requested. The service was excellent and the food was good. Restaurant is great for couples on a date night with excellent views of the waterfront. On the higher end price wise.
