Great food, service and most amazing view - the bag pipper was extra special. Love this restaurant

The view as always is outstanding. My wife had the prime rib, which was done perfectly, I had the Steelhead Trout, also done excellently, although could have been warmer. The service was attentive and prompt, without being overbearing. We love this place!

We had dinner on outdoor patio with fabulous and spectacular views of the Seattle skyline. Drinks were proper. Fish & Chips was traditional. Server was attentive. A fantastic summer evening dinner with friends.

Terrible experience – never going back We made a Father's Day reservation three weeks in advance for 1:30pm. They didn't seat us until 45 minutes later, at a huge and extremely uncomfortable table. When we asked for a different table, they said the wait would be even longer — so we stayed. Once we ordered, our server warned us there was a delay in the kitchen. We politely asked if we could at least order some bread and fries while we waited. He said “of course.” Forty minutes passed — nothing. We called the manager and asked if she could at least bring us the bread. She was incredibly rude and said there were delays but that she would check. She never came back. After an entire hour, the server finally asked if we wanted lemonades. That was the last straw. We got up and left. We made this reservation weeks in advance to celebrate Father's Day and we couldn't even do that. Worst service ever. Never coming back. If I could give this place zero stars, I would.

Unfortunately, it was a tough experience. Our table of 5 was chill and totally compassionate that it was Father's Day. Our reservation was for 11:30a. We did not get our food until 1:10p. We were told 3 times “it'll be out any minute” and after over an hour of waiting our server dropped off bread “on her” but then we never saw anyone else until she brought our food over 90 minutes after our reservation time. We had hoped a Manager would come by and explain the issue since we clocked 3 other tables who were sat after us and fully done with their meal before we got ours. She then offered to comp just one dessert for the wait. The food wasn't very good and definitely overpriced. I think in my 6-7 years of leaving reviews this is the first time I've formally vocalized concerns and disappointment. Obviously the views are great, but we won't be back to eat there.

The front staff, food, view and ambience were great however the service was a bit slow. We had to ask to order our food and had to wait a long time to get our bill. The service could have been better and more on top of it.

The food was great. The service was very slow. Not our server's fault as he was running all around the place. They appeared to be under staffed. They couldn't take by Open Table reward gift card as they couldn't manually input the numbers. Frustrating.

Amazing views - packed outdoor seating - they won't take your reservation into account for seating outside (not good). Inside noise was almost unbearable. And the upstairs is no longer open for seating on the upper balcony (Wooly Toad). Food was good - excellent clams and prime rib. Out of stock on wines from their wine list. All around, a so-so review.

The Monte Christo and salads with chicken breasts were 5 star. The French Dip was over cooked and dried out. It is still the best view of Seattle.

This was one of, if not the worst dining experiences ever for my wife and me😱😱 We have been to this place in the past with friends and had a great experience. Last evening was horrible! I write a lot of reviews and truly try to find good things everywhere. The wine list and specialty cocktails are OK. The prosciutto, melon and burrata salad was lovely. Service was average at best. I ordered a new item on the menu, lamb chops with a black cherry chutney. The lamb was inedible!! It was simply a ball of fat and terribly undercooked. I spoke to the server who spoke to the chef. The chef's response was “sorry my line cook messed it up”. No offer to replace the meal. My wife ordered the halibut dinner. The halibut was so overcooked it was like chewing on dried jerky. What a disappointment !! When the waiter was advised of the problem, he simply said he would give us a free dessert but that would have been included anyway because it was our anniversary! How to add insult to injury! We asked for the bill and noted there were no adjustments for the awful meals we did not eat. Needless to say, we will not return to this venue in the near future and will advise others to avoid it as well.
Waiters seems to be uninterested. We asked for extra small plate, she forgot and didn't attend we had to again ask for it and she seemed and behaved in a way that she doesn't even remember

Beautiful setting makes this spot perfect for special occasions. Service is friendly but can be slow during rush hours. Food is decent though not exceptional, with limited vegetarian options. The real draw here is the stunning ambiance. While it won't blow you away with the cuisine, it's a solid choice for a memorable evening out, especially if you're after atmosphere over culinary excellence.

An amazing event at an amazing venue. Special whiskey tasting event. Would do it again with more friends!

We do not understand why this restaurant is not busier than it is . It is way above average for this type of restaurant but with one factor that blows it over the top. - THE VIEW!! Why not eat at a restaurant that has great service, excellent food and one of the greatest views in the world. It never disappoints.

All three of us had bad meals. Two of us ate maybe half our meals, the other guest could not even eat hers. The waitress took our plates away but did not even comment on how little we ate. The scones were very small and dry. It was very disappointing.
