The history of McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants began when Bill McCormick purchased Jake's Famous Crawfish Restaurant located in Portland, Oregon, and brought the more than 100-year-old landmark back to life. When asked the secret of how he revitalized a restaurant on the brink of closing, McCormick says, "I like nothing better than being a good host." Part of the managerial talent McCormick tapped was Doug Schmick, a management trainee. The two formed a partnership in 1974, creating Traditional Concepts, a precursor to today's McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants. In 1979, they opened the original McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurant in Portland, Oregon. The combination of an open imagination and a respect for tradition are what makes McCormick & Schmick's the classic and successful business that it is today.

The food was excellent. I had a fillet with a lot of flavor which I think they normally are boring compared to a ribeye. Shrimp scampi was great. When I saw the mashed potatoes, they were all boring white in appearance, but they were really good too. Husband said ribeye was great. I appreciated the large dining space for a couple and the drapery if we wanted to close it off and dine more in private. Our server was excellent! He was so polite and well mannered. That doesn’t happen too much these days, so that was the highlight of the whole experience. As a designer, I do think the space could use a refresh. Felt like the carpet smelled a bit funky under our table. Wood tables a little sticky.

Due to a "kitchen incident" half the kitchen was closed. So no salads or deserts. No lobster bisque.

Not worth the bill we received at the end of the meal. This is our 3rd time at this restaurant (other visits were in a different state). The first table we were placed at had tiny ants that were crawling on our menus and across the table. Even a few up our legs. The manager was notified and they moved us to another table, blaming the ants on the bay outside the windows. Didn’t see him gain the rest of our meal. Water glasses had red lipstick on them. The portions were so small for the price. Our waitress, Eria was very pleasant and accommodating. However with all the negative stated above and a $250 bill for 3 people, Don’t think we will ever go back!! Totally not worth it!

The lobster bisque is one of my favorites and I get it whenever I am there. I had the filet this time and it was absolutely the best, tenderest, delightful meal I have ever had. My husband had a salmon stuffed with shrimp and crab. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Great happy hour but impossible to get into unless you get there way before it starts which would practically be lunchtime …not my style. Menu has become very limited . Many of my favorites no longer available.

Made a reservation and was called by the host to arrive earlier because the kitchen would be closed. We left the boardwalk and came in 45 minutes earlier than our original reservation at 10:00. We did not receive our food until 10:50. While waiting we asked for the manager twice with two different people, who were not our server. Our server decided that instead of updating us or offering a drink refill while we wait; to hide in the back and rush our food. We didn’t see her for 45 minutes after refilling my water once in between the 2 hours we sat at this place. When she did come back with our food it was half cooked and legitimately rushed out the kitchen and she had the nerve to say “be careful the plates hot” while placing down our half cooked still cold food. After that we were told that we can talk to the manger when he’s done closing the drawer as if we haven’t been asking for him for an hour. My husband was ready to walk out, me working as a server, did not want the responsibility to blamed on us as a black table as if we were going to walk out anyway (sad right), I wanted the staff (kitchen, server, Manager, host) to know they all contributed to trash service. I usually am a 40% and above tipper because I know what it’s like. After talking to a manager and then seeing him laugh with his staff after, I left nothing for the first time. I hope they read this.

Frequent visitor, McCormick & Schmick’s is absolutely one of our favorite restaurants in Atlantic City. Food is delicious, have never been disappointed unless a favorite entry has been removed from the menu. Wait staff is excellent, especially on this trip. Mary was very personable, efficient and one of the best waitresses we have encountered. She is a great waitress and representative for the restaurant. Another great visit!!

The restaurant was very busy but all went pretty well. Our server was very busy but still provided good service, the bar was a bit slow as I didn’t receive my cocktail until after the appetizers were eaten. Overall, it was nice and the food was good but I’m just used to an extraordinary experience when it comes to a special occasion. It just felt kind of basic. Unfortunately, on a Tuesday night at Harrah’s this is the best choice for dining.

Me and 7 of my friends dine there for dinner. I was please that we were able to be accommodated for a party of 8 on a Saturday evening. The food was really good for the price , with the exception of the oysters. They were really small for four, at the price. I think are waite staff was a little overwhelmed. Other then the few hiccups it was a good dinner. I would definitely recommend.

My husband and I decided to get away for a couple of days, and M&S have been on my food bucket list for YEARS! Since we were too tired to get “dressed” we were happy to find out that the dress code was casual. Gold star! Our server, Jimmy was great and patient. The drinks: phenomenal! Food: okay. Dessert: amazing! The crème brûlée AND the pineapple brown cake was superb. The temp on my filet was not medium, but it was cooked very crispy on the outside which was splendid! The food wasn’t bad…it just that I kinda expected more. Price was fair. Would I dine again? Maybe.
