McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Mixed Grill Special was terrific! It is a wonderful sampling of fish, crab, and shrimp! Service was great! Their downtown location is wonderful!
Food and experience overall was great. Service wasn't the best. The restaurant was a little noisy with other guests. Caused our night to be cut a bit short.
Very nice and fancy place. Great food, great service. It’s not cheap, but not crazy priced
This was supposed to be a nice date and from the start it was a bad experience... I left my mask in the car and since it was raining I asked the hostess if they had a mask for me to come in which she replied that it was a charge for the mask....the food was not worth the price salad was soggy the lobster mash was extremely salty and the steak felt more boiled then grilled...the server was very nice but that’s the only positive of this experience
Very great place to have dinner.
We were disappointed with our visit this time. The food was just ok and it was cold. We feel like all the Laundrys restaurants are becoming a chain food restaurant. The quality of food has gone way down.
Waitress was really nice snd helpful.
And she even helped me secretly wish my girlfriend a happy happy birthday!
On 2/12, Corey was super awesome and great! Attentive and did not once express his traumatic experiences as I’m am finding from bar and restaurant wait staff that I’ve recently visit. I am an empathetic person, I am a public servant...but I don’t want to hear about traumatic experiences and heartbreak while fine dining.
Food was amazing I felt safe in the environment. Our waiter Really was attentive to our needs. I will be back!
My crab and shrimp stuffed salmon with mashed potatoes and creamed spinach was outstanding. Wait staff was attentive but not to distraction. Crowd was small and quiet for a Friday night due to the pandemic.
I loved this establishment. The food, service and ambiance are top notch.
Loved it!!
Celebrated a birthday. Got special menus wishing a happy birthday. Staff and server were courteous to our occasion and gave a small complimentary dessert as well. Made us feel very special. Food was delicious and worth every penny.
I understand they are dealing with the whole COVID mess, I do.
But if you're going to be open then you're going to need enough servers, trained cooks, and do it right. Otherwise don't be open. There was one server for the restaurant the weeknight we were there. You couldn't get a drink, steaks were ordered rare and came out medium well.
This used to be a great restaurant. Hopefully it will get better but Thursday the 21st was not their finest hour.
The food was excellent. We both ordered the Rib Eye steaks, and they were mouth watering. The potatoes were excellent. The waitress gave us excellent service and we even got a free dessert because we were celebrating our 7th anniversary. The dessert was delicious. We will most definetly return. We went there because we received a gift card from our kids.
I celebrate every birthday here but this year was a complete disappointment. I understand trimming back because of Covid so no decor or super warm greeting however none of my order was incorrect (steak well done to a gray when I ordered medium plus and when brought to the servers attention he said okay, no replacement of my steak or correction to the bill. Also my bill I was overcharged for items not received, not only did I not receive a complimentary dessert We were not even offered dessert for the table. Overall just completely underwhelming service and experience at that caliber of restaurant and price point. Completely ruined the experience especially since I've dined here several times and this food was very low caliber.
The food was just “ok”. It’s overpriced for just “ok” food.
Love the scenery. The staff and food was great. I will be back.
Always enjoy eating here. The lobster bisque is amazing!
It was a great experience overall. The waiter was very nice and very attentive. The food was very good.
Ive been to M&S several times and at this location a few times. Always good just like this evening. It was NYEE and COVID was in the air so not sure what to expect. But we were seated quickly, no wait, but the ambiance was mellow, dark, and quiet. NO worries. We had good service, the mgr even came by once or twice, and I got to use Landry's rewards card. Food was so good. A great place for seafood and steak. Its a high end restaurant so a bit too expensive.
Xmas vacation
Food was delicious. Our server wasn't happy to be working Christmas night, but she warmed up a bit toward the end. The negative is that there were multiple diners who were dressed more for a dinner out at a fast food restaurant rather than a finer dining restaurant. I've noticed that Landry's is not enforcing any form of dress code at its restaurants now. Shame.
We dined on Christmas Day, I expected it to be busy but there were only a few patrons. I specifically asked to be seated in a booth on my reservation as I always do at M & S but the hostess took us to a table in the middle of the restaurant. I had to ask her to please seat us in one of the many available booths. She obliged. Service was sub par due to short staffing. I believe we spent almost 2 1/2 hours there which only 1 hour collectively was actually eating/drinking. We waited a significant amount of time for each item we ordered and the wait between appetizers and the meal was absolutely uncomfortable to say the least. With that being said- the Chesapeake fried shrimp are worth a return visit because they were so delicious. Perfect crunch , large shrimp. We ordered a variety of things from octopus to ribeye which was nicely prepared ,calamari fritto is good...lobster tails and the fried shrimp....cheesecake....upside down apple pie (which was an apple pie with delicious apples and a concrete crust.....My server was sweet just not attentive. Despite not being busy. BUT- all in all....I live in the area and I will return for patron margaritas and the fried shrimp. 3 people-$330.....$50 tip for lackluster service. This was my experience.
Came for Christmas Eve. It was very quiet when we arrived. There was no valet unfortunately, and no one at the host stand; we had to wait a bit to be seated. Service was better than usual, since it was very quiet. Food was good, price high, but acceptable.
Better than usual experience for this location, since it was very quiet due to Covid.
It was very enjoyable. Great service.
Quick to seat and serve. Excellent food. Love the quiet since fewer people are eating out.
Steak and lobster every Thursday is a great value.
Cocktail and bar service was awful for a restaurant that wasn’t busy. Waited over 1/2 hr for a drink. Food was mediocre at best. Definitely not the McCormick & Schmicks from the past.
Arrived and were seated promptly. Sat for about 5 minutes before server came to take our drink order. Ordered drinks from the bar and water. Server asked if we wanted bread & we said yes (bread didn’t come until we asked for it during our meal). Server brought out drinks from the bar and forgot water (brought water later). We ordered an appetizer. Our appetizer plates sat at the table a good 15 minutes after we finished it. We had to ask a separate server to clear the dishes away. Our server returned to take our dinner order. Our server did not deliver our food. Someone else did. Our server came around about half way through our meal. We were never offered another drink & our water glasses had become empty. We ordered asparagus in the place of the mashed potatoes that came with our meal. The stalks of the asparagus were so large (the size of two of my thumbs together) and Tough that we could only eat the very end. The sauce over the salmon was super salty and overall the fish had no taste. We spoke with the manager and she apologized. She did comp our appetizer for the inconvenience. This restaurant is part of the Landry’s chain. If you want your visit added to your account, be sure to tell your server. Our’s never asked. Had to tell the manager for her to add it. We wanted a nice dinner and did not receive it. We will not be back.
The food is amazing and if you want a private dinner, there are booths with curtains that can be closed to give you a more intimate setting.
Ordered the lunch special née York strip with side of asparagus. My steak was served well done when I ordered medium rare, side of asparagus was perfect. I sent it back and round 2 steak was still over cooked, medium ish this time, but edible so I went with it but this time asparagus was unseasoned and barely cooked. Too hard to eat. Service was great but I was very disappointed with the food.
Good food and a great place for a business lunch.
Great food as usual
great service and great food ! The restaurant was very quiet which helped with the conversation.
Absolutely amazing food each and every time we dine here!!! Highly recommend!!
Great food and great service. Thanks for celebrating us veterans every year.
Eve was amazingly awesome. She was extremely courteous and very attentive.
Steak was perfectly cooked. They have lobster mash potatoes that are to die for. Our waiter was nothing less than perfect.
Great food and service. We would definitely return.
