So good. The Peppercorn Bacon is a must, just for the presentation alone, and yes, it’s delicious. Amazing atmosphere, and our server, Tailer, was excellent.

The food was really good. It was $245 for four people without alcohol so it was a little more than what I was wanting to spend, but we did get really good seasonal salmon and filet mignon. The waiter was very nice and prompt and very knowledgeable about all the different dishes.

We often go to Nordstrom Cafe before the play because the food is good, service is excellent and prices are reasonable. Fortunately they accept reservations.
