   Host at the front was so lovely and fun, he made our evening start off with laughter and excellent service. Cocktails were lovely, crab cakes delicious. Filet and New York strip were perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. Don’t skip dessert the creme brûlée was delightful. Wonder meal, wonderful service. It was a special occasion so now I’m hoping for another celebration so we can go back!

   Sean is an outstanding bartender and waiter. He always delivers personalized service. My food was out within20 minutes of getting seated and receiving drinks. This is always a weekend treat for myself and my daughter. I suggest sitting in the bar area, I love looking out the window!

   We went for my wife’s birthday. The service was slow, the waitress was confused, the food was okay, comparative to the price it wasn’t worth it. However, the restaurant was nice and we enjoyed our time.

   We made a reservation 5 days in advance, showed up 20 minutes early, with no expectation of being seated early but due to Atlanta traffic we did not want to be late. We were told by host we would be seated next in just a couple of minutes and to stand aside. A different hostess came up while host was gone and proceeded to give someone else who admitted he arrived 30 minutes late with no name on his reservation our table. When we questioned her she said we wouldn’t be given out table until our reservation time. Once seated our very friendly server got us water right away, took our drink order immediately and then it took 15 minutes to get bread and another 10 on top of that for our drinks to arrive (25 minutes). So we immediately ordered another round assuming the bar was busy. About 15 minutes later he took our dinner order and we ordered only entrees at this point to keep it quick and simple and then he simply disappeared for another 30 minutes. We flagged him down and asked about the drinks we ordered 30 minutes ago and he thought we were joking when we ordered those. Then he realized how long it had been and said he would check on our food and disappeared again. We waited another 15 minutes, so an hour and 15 minutes from the time we were seated and served 1 drink, to get up and find a manager and offer to pay for our drink and leave. The woman manager was less than considerate, offered zero explanation, and sent us on our way.

   Very disappointing experience! Drinks were made wrong twice, food was over cooked, bar service very slow...took 1/2 hour to get drinks. Customer came from ladies room and had toilet paper about 3 foot long on her shoe. Someone from staff picked up toiler paper and put it on a table. Yuk! A customer stopped someone in our party to complain about how dirty the rest rooms were. Not sure what happened to this place but I would never go back. Service was good where server tried to make up for bad kitchen and bar but it is what it is.

    Volleyball Team Dinner! We were told we had to pay a $1500 deposit for 10 athletes and parents to sit together. We made several different reservations and they still would not seat the athletes together. Despite unwillingness to sit us together or in the same section - our servers were amazing and the girls made the best of it! Wanting to have a team dinner in downtown for regular kids and parents that don’t have $1500 deposit - choose another restaurant!

    We are staying in Atlanta because our 9 year old son has surgery tomorrow at Eggleston. Came to M&S for dinner and Tiffany was our server-she was personable, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly! The food was amazing as always-lobster bisque on point, oysters Rockefeller and calamari to start-my husbands bone in ribeye he said was perfect and my filet was better than I’ve had in a long time! Our son ordered his first center cut filet (medium rare) off the adult menu and said it was one of the top 3 best meals he’s ever had. Tonight is our family night before tomorrows surgery and we could not have had a better dinner in a quiet setting with wonderful service-highly recommend!!!!!

    Wow! The music was so loud in the dining room! The lobster bisque and seafood chowder was below average. We had the twin lobster tails. They were ok and tasted like shrimp. The mashed potatoes were good but had lobster bisque poured over the top. The cocktails were good. This is a Tillman Fertita owned restaurant. It tastes like it.

    I proposed to my fiancé on New Year's Eve. The staff was accommodating and made the experience quite exciting. I had the sea bass and my fiancé had the bourbon salmon. Both dishes were excellent. Winston was the most gracious server, not to mention the host I love this place and will be going back. Had cheesecake for dessert. Delicious!

    My 6oz steak was overcooked and my small lobster tail was undercooked. My husband didn’t care for his salmon dinner. The shrimp cocktail was delicious. Not what I expected for an expensive surf and turf, but didn’t have time to request my meal to be sent back!

    Service: Worst service I’ve ever had at any restaurant anywhere ever. Arrived 10 minutes before reservation. Seated 7 minutes after reservation time after watching groups come in after us and get seated. Waited 15 minutes and had to flag down somebody to bring water, bring a server. 15 more minutes to get soup. 20 minutes to get the wine I ordered. Should have just left. Food: We each had a 6 oz filet (8 oz was out of stock). Cut and sear on the steak was excellent. Added a lobster tail that was good but not great. Lobster bisque was flavorful, only small shred of lobster in the soup. Value: Not really there this trip. If you’re going to spend $60+ a plate, go down the street to Ruth’s Chris. Betting they will acknowledge your presence.

    This was absolutely a terrible experience on 12/29/22 at 6:15 pm. First off, we ordered our 1st drinks and they didn't arrive till 20 mins later. Our 2nd round didn't come at all (over 45 mins waiting and no exaggeration). Our food took 30 mins and our dessert took 20 mins and had to be brought by the kitchen manager after we complained. Our server barely checked on us. The kitchen manager was apologetic, but it was just our worst experience at a restaurant period. Its It's highly unlikely that we will return. This was a $$$ restaurant, and we expect more from this establishment

    The service was not great. Our server seemed as if he didn’t want to be at work. Also the food took forever to be delivered. Plus when our appetizers where delivered, once person didn’t get theirs. When we were finally able to get the server’s attention to inquire about the missing dish, he said, “oh, the manager didn’t come over and tell you that we are out of that dish?” No he did not. Plus our server could have easily told us that and she could have reordered. We sat at 5:42 PM and didn’t even get water until 6:12. It was 7:15 when we finally got dinner. We came early and it was fairly empty and still had slow service. M&S is usually a winning choice. However, this experience was beyond subpar. Will we go back? Yes. But this expirience was very disappointing.

    Great food and service. Background music a bit loud, but it was bowl game weekend in Atlanta, so the city vibe was upbeat. Recommend to anyone. My family loved all their dishes. Craft cocktails were excellent also, especially the smoked old fashioned.

    It was my birthday dinner. The waiter I had was named Nick with the dreads. He had an attitude and was very unpleasant to have as an waiter. For this to had been my birthday dinner they didn’t give suggestions on desserts or anything. The restaurant is very aesthetic and I did have a private room which was very nice. But I have to say this was overall the worst experience I’ve ever had on my birthday and I will not be returning and if you are thinking about going here don’t!

    Kitchen was not as good as they can be…Christmas Day…servers seemed a little snippy and not moving as fast as you’d expect at M&S. I will chalk it up to the holiday and go back again.

    My husband and I were looking to have an intimate Christmas Day date. Making reservations at McCormick & Schmick's Seafood was the best. It was my first visit there and I was impressed. Upon arrival, we were seated right away by a chipper hostess with holiday headband on her pretty head. Our waitress, Wendy seemed to be taking care of several tables so we had to be patient but whenever she was available for us, she was great. Pleasant attitude, made suggestions on meals, accommodating and fun! Appetizers were yummy (not too much), bread/butter came out fresh/hot. Main meal was delicious and more than I could eat in one sitting. Dessert was sinful (in a good way). My husband did have to us his phone flashlight each time he read menus because "it's too dark in here". I reminded him that it was date night, it's called "romantic ambiance". We will be giving M&SS a 2nd date! Thank you~
