Featuring seasonal seafood, tender steaks and signature oysters, our commitment to freshness is reflected in our daily changing menu. From our seasonal Wild Isles Salmon caught from the coast of Scotland's Shetland Islands, to our Hawaiian Seafood overnighted from the Honolulu Fish Auction, and Wild Pacific Northwest Salmon pulled from pristine river waters, our menu incorporates regional tastes, farm fresh products, and local and sustainably sourced ingredients wherever possible. With our exclusive line of signature oysters sourced from our own private oyster beds, as well as a fine selection of steaks, soups, salads and pasta dishes, McCormick & Schmick's appeals to the tastes of all diners. Our focus on the true spirit of hospitality only adds to our appeal, making us a popular destination on Veterans Day and Memorial Day, where we honor the military with free meals, as well as an ideal setting for private special occasions, date night and business functions.

My group enjoyed our dining experience. The waiter was simply great with my group of 7 who had several questions. He handled everything with great poise and professionalism….I wish I could remember his name. He was very mindful of our need to be done in time for our attendance at a play at a nearby theatre. Food was very good. I hadn’t been to M & S in a few years, but after this experience, I will frequent this location more!

I ate lunch here with some friends before a show. It was pretty empty on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and was the perfect place for lunch. The lunch menu has several budget friendly prices, the bar had great drinks, and service and the food were what you’d expect from a downtown staple. Excellent.

Our waitress (I wish I remembered her name) was very welcoming and attentive. She was able to help with my meal selection since I was torn between a few items. All of our food was delicious- lobster bisque, sea bass ocscar, shrimp cocktail, ribeye and apple pie!

Wait staff was amazing. A stranger followed my girlfriends and I into the restaurant and was harassing us. The staff told us to step back while they asked the man to leave. They escorted him out. Thanks for the protection and for even checking to see the coast was clear for our walk home!! Food was also amazing!!

Arrived and were seated promptly, followed by a 25 minute wait w/o ever seeing a server or receiving water. I informed the hostess stand of the issue, a server promptly came over and delivered bread and we requested water. We were told she would be right back and was never seen again. The restaurant hostess returned with our waters and took an appetizer order and then another different server arrived to take our order after being seated for over an hour. Extremely disappointed as this was a business dinner....will not book again anytime soon.

Best steak we’ve ever had. Redfish was average. The fish needed more seasoning. They stop serving bread an hour before the restaurant closed which was disappointing.

Very disappointing meal at the Chicago McCormick & Schmick. Service - SLOW. We had an 8:30 reservation. Restaurant was not even 1/3 full. Took a long time to get water/menus. Server was pleasant. Ambiance - halfway through dinner, seems like the manager (and the chef, more on that below) left and music was turned up and we were treated to Psycho Killer by the Talking Heads and other similar music for the rest of the evening. Odd choice for a white tablecloth fine dining meal. Food - seafood was good. We enjoyed the black cod and stuffed salmon. Scallops were also good but were 3 scallops over a mush of something for $44 - terrible value. And the steak - horrible. Filet mignon ordered medium rare came out very rare the first time. Rare after being sent back once. Combination of shoe leather and rare after the second time sent back. By that time the rest of our party had finished their meals. No offer to take off the check, no visit from the manager. Nothing. In fact, the manager (behind the bar) snapped at the waiter when he asked for help resolving the steak issue. Very poor experience. Will not return. Told concierge at our (very) nearby hotel to be wary before recommending again.

Great experience for the two of us. Split oysters, tuna appetizer, Caesar salad, and twin lobster tails and two glasses of wine. Nothing left on any plates. Excellent service. We spent about $150 with tip. Highly recommend.

Outdated decor and the menu was much smaller than what we saw on Open table menu list. And waiter was kind a loud. We had to pay via bar code using our phone. Over all service was not as good as before.

Last reservations of the night and food reflected the quality of a closing kitchen. For the amount of money we spent just didn’t have the quality I was expecting for my birthday dinner.
