McCormick & Schmick's Seafood - Reston

Excellent presentation and very delicious entrees.
Manager on duty and Taylor our server offered outstanding service.

Service waiter was very slow and kitchen very slow.

Steak not cooked as ordered
Slow service
Noisy
Lobster bisque was good
Had a better experience at the DC location

Very friendly staff. I appreciate their hard work and honesty

All four of us enjoyed our meals. The food was well prepared, portions were just right and dietary needs were accommodated. We were seated in a booth with walls which made conversation among the four of us very easy to hear.

Great happy hour menu! Waitress was attentive and food was good. We will return!

JP did such an excellent job...he really took such good care of us! And our food was delicious!

The food and the experience were excellent. For three of us, our three choices were: scallops, ahi tuna, and swordfish. Each one was outstanding. I used to go to McCormick & Schmick often. Then it seemed to go downhill. I had not been to McCormick & Schmick for several years. My belief was that there was only one truly excellent seafood restaurant in Reston. Now I know there are two, and one of them is McCormick and Schmick.

My only recommendation is for them to change their wood tables. They were stained from wet classes with many circle all over.
I would also suggest that Open Table communicates the customer's requests with the restaurant sooner. They did not receive my comment and request for a table near the window, but they accommodated me anyways. Thanks.

Went for brunch for my father's 70th birthday. It was a great meal and the kids had a great time as well.

Scallops were very small for the cost (4 for $41). Serve was awesome.

My steak was excellent. Only thing that was less than outstanding was the roasted root veggies. They could have been cooked a bit more. The carrots were very hard.

Cold seafood appetizer was good but very small pieces of crab

Margarita was not good - martini was fine

Blackened trout was dry and not well seasoned - potatoes were excellent

Beef medallions were ordered medium, but were served medium rare - very little sauce for the portion - spinach was under seasoned

Coffee was very good as was Smith island cake

We had a very pleasant server but he is clearly still training and left us for extended periods of time, especially at the end of our meal

Food was subpar. Service was slow. Restaurant wasn’t super clean. It was a real disappointment.

Quiet business meal over lunch. Food is good as always server seems a little inexperienced but friendly.

Great food... great service. The manage came by a couple times.... once to tell us about the oysters we just ordered and to check on our meal? Our waiter, Christopher, was amazing! We couldn't have had a bad experience even if we tried! I have been converted to a McCormick regular because of the visit 👍

The salmon with beets and asparagus was delicious and fit my dietary restrictions

Food cooked to perfection. Personalized service was outstanding.

Very pleased, we got seated immediately and our servers took good care of us. My husband ordered fresh oysters and I ordered clam chowder soup, both were delicious. As main dish my husband ordered lobster tail and I ordered the grilled seafood trio. Both dishes were also delicious. We ended our night with créeme brûlée. Our dining experience was excellent, from the service received to the quality of the food.

Service was ok but was valentine's day and wifes birthday. When M&S called back to confirm reservation said wife would get birthday dessert. Told waitress wifes birthday and she said happy birthday. We ordered desserts and both charged. We drove up from NC and chose this M&S because we used to live in area and came for birthdays and anniversaries.....Will dtill come when in area....

McCormick and Schmick used to have a better wine menu (older red wines) and a variety of fresh catch that changed daily. Not this time. The wine list included Ecco Domani Pinot Grogio, available from Costco for $8 a bottle and which no respectable restaurant would carry. We had Valentine's dinner so perhaps that's why they had more of a standard menu. The two lobster tails were small relative to the $38 price.

We were thrilled with both the food and service on our most recent trip to M&S 2/14/20. We previously had poor experiences here on Valentine’s Day but this year was much different. Our waiter was very personable and attentive. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. So happy we didn’t let a couple poor services keep us from returning.

Food was delicious and service was great. It was Valentine's Day and the mood was just right.

Absolutely amazing experience my fiancé and I from the time we were treated at the door with David(absolutely amazing hostess by the way he deserves a raise) and the waiter whom I cannot remember his name a made the experience incredible we will be returning again for sure. Thank you for a wonderful Valentine’s Day for my fiancé and I.

We ordered drinks the moment we sat down and it took 30 min for them to be delivered. By the time they were delivered the logo in the signature M&S drink was melted and the prosecco sangria was watered down, which makes me believe they were sitting on the bar for awhile. We ordered appetizers 10 minutes after the drinks and those came out before the drinks were delivered. I understand the bar gets backed up, but it would’ve been nice if they would’ve let us know that or if something was done about the delayed, watered down drinks. I except more from restaurants when I am paying $15-$20 for drinks.

I got violently ill hours after eating here.

My mom came down for a visit

Anniversary. Seated at a two top right by the open kitchen with a lot of traffic by the table. Ordered a second scotch that took 15-20 minutes to receive. Said they had to go to storage to get another bottle of Johnny Walker Black. Yeah right.

Food was great. Chilean Sea Bass with topping was tasty but was expensive. Calamari is a must. Service and attention to detail was mediocre. Cocktails at a premium price.

Asked for a booth in a virtually empty restaurant and got a table in the middle. Wasn’t busy even when we left.
The Tempura tuna was extra fishy in smell and suspect it was not close to fresh. Really hard to eat. My wife’s salmon was marginally better.
Best part of the meal was the bread and wedge Salad. Should have stopped there.
The food was poorly prepared and the quality suspect. The only thing healthy was the price.

Great food, but the service was lacking.

Very nice! Their private tooms are the vest. We could actually talk and enjoy our guests!!!

It was very disappointing. I’ve had better salmon at restaurants that do not specialize in fish. My friend’s steak looked much smaller than the 6 oz. it was supposed to be and his sides were minuscule. And my martini was warm. The best course was dessert which we ordered because our portions were so small. McCormack & Schmick’s needs to do a better job.

Maybe we had a bad night. 3 of us had salmon and I had crab cakes. Crab cakes were good, but there should have been more than a tablespoon of poblano aoili to go with it. The vegetables were good. Of the three salmon, one was deemed excellently cooked at medium. One of the others was overcooked. The third was called "no where as good as Jackson's", just down the block. Service was spotty. Daughter did not get timely refills on diet coke. Waiter popped his head in and asked how things were (when we were 3/4 done with meal and asked how it was. I looked up from my food, said not a word, and the waiter said "great" and left. We had one of the private walled in booths which cut down on the noise of the bar next door, so ambiance was nice. M&S needs to make sure fish is cooked to order, and have the waiters actually stop by once and a while.

Wonderful food. Excellent wait staff. Just a really great experience.

I really enjoyed the professionalism and service that we received here. You seem to only meet management when there is an issue but in this case the manager introduced himself and was very kind and attentive to our needs. The stuffed crab salmon dish was phenomenal and I cannot wait to eat it again! Thank you all for helping me celebrate my birthday the right way!

Excellent service, delicious food, very pleasant surroundings.

The food was outstanding. Our waiter was very attentive. However, the prices are such that we can only afford to dine at McCormick and Schmick's occasionally.

The level of service, the atmosphere, and the quality of the food were all outstanding. We have been going to this restaurant for years and have always been very pleased. Highly recommended.

Wife’s birthday celebration went well. All of our party had a phenomenal time.
