    We were first time visit to this restaurant. The mood in the restaurant was very good, and view of waterfront through the window was terrific! But kinds of wine had not been served by bottles was our little surprise. Anyway if you want to eat seafood, try this Cutters Crabhouse!

    Service was very slow. Sides were brought out with the salads, so they were cold by the time our meals actually made it to the table. Bonus was the guy peeing outside the window for all of us to see.

    Been quite a few years since dining here. The food was really good, waitress was great, food took a bit longer to arrive than anticipated but overall i’d certainly recommend this restaurant.

    The main reason to go to Cutters is the location / view. We had a great table by the windows overlooking Elliott bay. Service was very slow but friendly. Food is okay - I had the seafood trio of shrimp, scallops, and salmon, all of which were overcooked. Wine selection is good and reasonably priced. Very loud, but fun atmosphere. By 9:15 we were one of only 2 tables left in the entire restaurant. I highly recommend Cutters for views, drinks, appetizers. Go somewhere else for dinner!

    Everything was delicious. They ran out of King Crab so that was disappointing. We had reservations but it would be nice if we could reserve the order as well to avoid this. Gorgeous views & excellent service.

    The steak and mahi mahi were fine. The best part of the meal was the salad and dessert. Service wasn’t very attentive. Probably won’t return.
