Westward

Our waitress Sandra was more than great. We came from out of town and friends recommended this to us. She let us talk and catch up and then served us a wonderful meal.

Been meaning to come here for a while. Didn't disappoint! Fantastic service, amazing food, and unbeatable views.

Food and views were both delicious! Staff was great. Portion sizes were decent, but could be a bit bigger.

Great experience!

Food was great. Food value was 5 stars. Wine and drinks a little pricey.

Impeccable. Courteous and patient service, skillful barman, great view and delicious food. What else to ask ?

I forgot how good the food is here and the view. I will be back soon.

We came for happy hour oysters and weren’t disappointed. Very good selection and great service! Ambience was great and on the clear night we were experiencing- the view of downtown Seattle was spectacular. The restaurant is expensive so we won’t likely be making a habit of it. Maybe just on special occasions? Our group of 4 were by far the oldest people at this restaurant. It seemed to be full of millennials.

Amazing brunch with Avocado toast better than any I have ever eaten! The absolute best outdoor seating with great views of the water and boats!

really lovely brunch spot. good food, good cocktails, good service, good space and view. will be going back for sure.

Love this restaurant! Definitely will return. Love sit by the bonfire.

The food was perfect. Scallop Crudo, Black Cod, Oysters and Mezcal. All so yummy and the ambiance is excellent. I can't wait to dine here during the summer so I can sit outside and enjoy the view.

I found the experience at Westward to be pretty average. We originally booked a counter seat, but quickly discovered we were right next to the server station and it felt like we were nose to nose with the bartender. Fortunately we were able to move to a table which was great. Overall the food was good, black cod was excellent along with oysters and brussel sprouts. The 1/2 chicken was very small. Service was not friendly. It was quite expensive for the overall experience.

The service was great, I didn't even realize my coffee was filled when it was low. The servers are very nice and the food was great. The views are amazing, and I would definitely visit again.

Always a wonderful place to visit, yummy fresh food and cocktails, excellent service and lovely view of lake union!

Love Westward. One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle.

We had a tasty meal with good service.

Friend was in town and we had a great experience with quality service and memorable food and drinks! Loved it!

It was wonderful! The food was fresh and delicious. I would recommend this to everyone. Thank you for the nice dining experience!

Delicious food served with no rush. And our server was the best. She was kind and attentive but never overbearing.

Came for Valentine's day pre-fixe menu dinner. Food was decent but portions were extremely small. Given the price, the value was not good at all and I was surprised to find that oysters were extra on top of it all.

We’ve always loved westward. Still the same great place.
I thought I was clever to make our V day reservation early. I didn’t know it would be pre-fix menu. Once I learned that I couldn’t find a sample menu for the night online.
The choices were wonderful. I loved my scallops and dh loved his steak.
Other than pre-fix, we would have not chosen dessert.
The pre-fix menu card did not offer the price.
Not that we minded or had a choice but it was higher than I find value for at westward.

The price of the 3 course meal was not on the menu or revealed by the server. At best, the total food served might have been worth 40-50 dollars. We were shocked to see $85 per person. This was for a small salad, 3 scallops (main) and the tiniest desert we have ever been served. A 6 oz glass of their standard wine was $16. Overall- NOT RECOMMENDED.

Food was unimpressive but OK. Service was mediocre. The servers started reorganizing a long table right behind us and were so loud that we had to leave before having desert!

The Food was absolutely amazing! Whole fish, brussel sprouts, pork chop, crudo, barratta....yum!

We really did love our experience at Westward. We were visiting from the East Coast, and had many recommendations from chef friends to visit. The oysters were AMAZING. However, unfortunately, there was something I ate that night that made me extremely sick. I was SO sick the next day, and unable to get out of bed (except when necessary, because of said sickness). I am sure this is a once-in-a-blue-moon thing for patrons of Westward to experience, but it was so sad to me because it made me lose an entire day of my short visit to Seattle.

The food and portion sizes had improved from the last time I was there.

Excellent food in a beautiful location. Snag a seat by the outdoor firepit for a pre or post dinner drink!

Westward is amazing! It has creative classy-aquatic decor, romantically soft (but not too dark) lighting, and a waterfront view of Seattle. My friend and I went there to celebrate her birthday. The food was incredible, with lots of surprising and artful taste combinations. The waiter was knowledgeable about the wine and food and was able to give us a good wine pairing recommendation. It made for a memorable and beautiful evening. We both really enjoyed it and will definitely be back.

The waitstaff was very prompt. The food is delicious and I love their coffee!

After a slight mixup with our reservation the service was excellent, food was outstanding, but the prices seemed quite high for the atmosphere. Beware the bar tab. ;-)

My sister ordered the blackened cod, it was so good! But the bean dish that accompanied it was over the top salty. Inedible salty. Salty beyond. I hadn't seen my sister in a long time and I was annoyed that we had to interrupt our conversation to wave down a server. Within about 10 minutes, a manage type person came over and we explained the salty situation and he took our plates and left. And that was it. No non salty bean substitute and no price reduction on our bill (cod dish was $32). :(

Wonderful view; lively and fun atmosphere, Great service and a very tasty menu!

The venue, food, and service were excellent. But we were shocked by the high price of individual oysters and the fact that there was no discount for orders of 1/2 dozen or dozen. We've never encountered that before and were taken aback. It seemed very ungenerous and not in keeping with the restaurant as a whole.

Westward is one the brightest gems in Seattle. I took a new-to-town friend there for dinner the other night, and it was fantastic - the servers were absolutely on top of everything, the food was stellar, and the view and ambience are always lovely. Nothing like a waterfront restaurant with amazing food, great service, and a fire pit, to boot. He was suitably impressed by the whole experience and I was happy to have gotten to introduce him to Westward.

My friend and I had a most enjoyable evening, with wonderful wines and very tasty dishes (the cod was cooked to perfection). Kevin was our server and definitely added to our celebratory mood! He was attentive and friendly with a great sense of humor, and he answered all our questions knowledgeably.

I just love this place. I thought I just loved it when the sun's out, but it turns out it's a great go-to any time of year.

A quiet waterfront location with a view of Seattle downtown. Well prepared and presented dishes.
A sample of oysters was a good start followed by Fred halloumi cheese. Entrees of pan fired trout and pork pan smells were very good.
Reasonable wine list and prices.
Service is very good. We will definitely return.

Probably the best view of the city in Seattle. The Black Cod was excellent as well.

The food here was AMAZING. It doesn't have a large menu but the food was so delicious as were the cocktails. It sits on Lake Union so you have a great view of the city. There is a fire pit with seating outside as well so if would be a fun place to hang out with friends.

Brunch is delicious! Make sure you get the Dutch baby or something with the potatoes 🤤🤤
