    Sadly, the food was extremely bland and the taste overall did not match the price. The location is very great, but the design inside the restaurant and the lighting is awful.

    We were seated at a full floor to ceiling table with the beautiful view of the bay and the young people dressed for the prom strolling by. My halibut was cooked to perfection. The waitress was efficient and affable. We will be back!!

    Great view while we ate our meal. They also have a flower to my wife since we were eating a Mother’s Day brunch meal to celebrate the day, we didn’t even need to ask. The staff is always great and the food always tastes great!

    Went for Mother’s Day brunch. It was not a buffet, but order from the menu. The menu for breakfast is not extensive, just the usual basic breakfast items. The food was made well however. I had the steak and eggs, wifey the French toast. The dining room is occasion worthy though, with picture windows overlooking Commencement Bay. All in all a fine place to have a special meal.

    Some of the items were good and some were poorly conceived. We ordered the spek appetizer. The toast was burnt, the cheese spread could have used some additional flavor, the dish was bland. I would have liked to see some flavor herbs and oil or butter with it that I could add to my liking. My meal was disappointing, the ribeye was cooked in an exceptional way but there was a sweet sauce poured over the dish. Everyone at our table was confused after tasting it why they would use a sweet sauce on a steak. It was not appetizing. The broccolini tasted like eating charcoal, a burnt taste overpowered the broccolini rather than enhancing it and letting it be the star. I think the chef has skills but they need to taste the food they are sending out or get second opinions to help tune the flavors. After our experience with the food and at that price we will not be returning.

    I met some friends here last night and WOW. The food was excellent. Our server and the bartender were both super friendly and personable. The greeting staff were kind and very patient with our group not all arriving on time. The view was beautiful. I would recommend this for families, couples, groups and friends. We were not rushed and will be back.

    This was our first time visiting this restaurant. We were very disappointed in the length of time it took to receive our food, how it looked when it did arrive and the lack of flavor in anything. We ordered three different sandwiches. All were prepared with allot of bread/bun and minimal filling. The sandwiches came with dry cold fries. The coffee was good and we saw the whales in the sound from our table. There was an event happening at the same time we were visiting. The Free Valet parking at the hotel was helpful.

    We were there for brunch hours, I had Italian Sammy and my husband ordered Smashed Burger. My sandwich’s was delightful! Quality and each component of sandwich perfectly complimented each other. It was an enjoyable meal. I didn’t try the burger but my husband was happy with his food. Only reason we didn’t give 4 stars was because service was slow even though the restaurant didn’t look busy. We will return to try dinner service next time. The complimentary valet parking was convenient. Enjoyed the ambiance but wish I had a window seating.

    Lovely restaurant with a varied menu. Great views from most tables, excellent service from all wait staff. The swordfish was perfect and though I felt the Ribeye and fingerling potatoes were just a bit over salty it still was a great dish. Cocktails were perfect and nice appetizers I recommend the meatballs. We will definitely be back!

    The food was good. Since the Caesar salad on the menu said "grilled kale" I would use more than just a splash in a sea of romaine which wasn't even mentioned as an ingredient. Also, the croutons could use an upgrade as they clearly came out of a bag. The speck appetizer was nice but please add more than just three pieces of bread for two people. We had the puttanesca and skirt steak, both were delicious. My biggest complaint would be the wine list as it was very corporate using mostly market saturated PNW wines you can find in any grocery store. It could use more imported wines to go with the nuances of the Italian influenced entrees. You can bring your own bottle for a corking fee of $30. The atmosphere was lovely and service was excellent. It was busy so pretty noisy, very hard to hear our conversation, but all and all, it was very nice experience.

    We had a lovely dinner here last night. I'd recommend the focaccia bread with mozzarella to start. I had the catch of the day which was halibut on a bed of risotto. It was delicious! My boyfriend had the ribeye steak with fingerling potatoes and it was equally great. We shared the sticky toffee dessert which I loved as well. I only had a NA beer but my boyfriend said the Blazing Melon cocktail was really great. Our server was really good and our table near the back of the restaurant, in the more quiet area, had a wonderful view. I'd recommend!

    The food is innovative and generous, the service is friendly and the location is outstanding. The wine list could have a few more choices of foreign wines, I understand the emphasis on west coast but sometimes other wines would pair better with the food.

    Amazing service from Karisma, who steered us in the right direction, even though we were new to the menu. The view from our table looked out over the water. I ordered the beet salad with goat cheese made with cabbage , light and. refreshing. Muscles with chicken broth, and some bread to soak it up hit the spot, but was actually too big for me to finish. Ordered the bread and it was soft and fluffy and warm. I would definitely go back. Amazing ambiance, food and service. 10/10
