Nice looking facility with open cooking and nice decoration and outside light. Food options were good, however, most of our meals were not served hot, which detracted from our experience.

Cancelled my reservation at the hostess stand. Nordstrom doesn’t require a mask, so we didn’t bring them. Masks are required in the restaurant. Owell. We ate at Brio instead.

From the appetizer to the meal absolutely horrible! My son and husband ordered the burger and so bad that my son wouldn't eat it and he eats anything. When the sever finally came back asked why they didn't eat we explained that the meat tasted rancid. To our servers surprise she let us know they won best burger. Well not today. The calamari was soggy and over spiced. In all, horrible experience and won't be back ever!

I love the Nordstrom grill. I think this is one of the best kept secrets. It is an adorable restaurant with high quality, delicious food. The only reason my rating is lower this time is because an employee was standing at the front bar on speakerphone yelling back and forth to his friend while I was eating my lunch for quite late while. I thought this was really rude to the guests and I was very surprised because I’ve never had an experience anything like this at Nordstrom grill in the past.

Had a very nice lunch with my wife and a friend. I had the Shrimp and Crab Louis Salad. It was delicious. The shrimp were batter dipt and fried to perfection. And it is one of my pet peeves when eating shrimp out, that they leave the tails on, I was pleasently surprised to see that they took them off before cooking. I recommend the Grill to everyone!

Very disappointed this time! Server was abrupt and short with us. There were five of us and no one felt like it was a special experience. It’s normally our go-to place. Calamari was terrible. Burger was not cooked to temperature ordered. Friends specifically asked for “no pickle”...it was on the plate and pickle juice was on their burger. When their over done burger was remade it was also delivered with a pickle- they hate pickles! The grilled vegetable salad was mostly spinach - no plate appeal. Very plain.

The service was good but very, very slow. I am not sure if our waitress was the only one working but it sure seemed that way. I wanted to order tea because I was cold but she never came back until our meal was delivered so I sat and waited and looked for her instead of fully enjoying my time with my Mom.

Came in with high hopes. Menu looked creative. Impressive drink/wine menu. Both my salmon and my husband's burger was WAY overcooked and dry. Took forever. Daughter loved the buttered noodles-ha! Wasn't that busy but had a hard time getting server to come over for food, check, etc.

Food was good but the service didn’t match. With 3 areas of the restaurant you could divide the customers into areas for families ordering sandwiches vs couple ordering the nicer entrees. For an expensive entree, the silverware should be replaced after the appetizers, appetizer plates should be removed before entree is delivered, drinks should be refilled. Tables once left should be bussed promptly.
