I recently dined at Water’s Table-Renton Restaurant on March 15th and had a delightful experience. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was inviting and the staff, particularly my waitress Nancy, provided impeccable service. I was dining alone, Nancy warmly welcomed me and made me feel right at home. Nancy's attention to detail and friendly demeanor truly enhanced my dining experience. The food was exquisite, with each dish bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The restaurant's picturesque waterfront location added to the overall charm of the evening. Later, my husband joined me, and despite Nancy’s shift was ending soon, she graciously took his order and introduced us to the waiter who would be assisting us for the remainder of the evening. Before Nancy left for the evening, she recommended that we consider trying the restaurant’s breakfast menu. She was right! The breakfast was delicious. I highly recommend Water’s Table-Renton Restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience with exceptional service.

Great place to celebrate. Seated immediately. Window table view of Lake Washington. Delicious food. Had the scallops. So tender. My dearest had the half chicken… so moist. My daughter had the Risotto with chicken. Ample servings.. had to take it home. The Lemon Poppyseed Panna Cotta was so fresh. It was my birthday and they brought me a special dessert of chocolate ganache. Parking is free. Great service, delicious food. Nancy was our server and she was excellent

Met with friends I hadn't seen in 20+ years and requested a table with a view when I made the reservation and was happy to be seated with lake views. Even though the hotel lobby was busy with families, and I think a cheer squad that was practicing, the restaurant was cozy and was about a medium in noise level. We ordered the crab cakes, which were excellent. I ordered the scallops for dinner, and my meal was delicious and the presentation was also nice. I had the lemon panacotta for dessert, which was also very good, as well as the decaf coffee, although I'll admit, the coffee had a little bit of that burnt taste I'd read in other reviews. We really enjoyed the food and drinks overall and catching up was the best part. It was nice that they let us sit and chat in the restaurant until late on a Friday night instead of trying to rush us out. Great place to meet friends and dine and will definitely go again.

Walked up to the podium and no one was there. Got seated with no issues. Reservation is recommended and they have a great bar. Staff was kind and the manager was nice. Thanks for the great service I hope you have me back and maybe I'll give you five stars the next time. There were parts of the restaurant that weren't very clean. I hope to get dessert next time. Please invite me back.

Love this restaurant! Have been several times for special occasions and never been disappointed. If you make reservations online, you are more likely to get a table by the window.Parking: Garage is paid, but you can get free parking when you eat at the restaurant. Just ask to scan their QR code when you dine there and it's two hours free.

Went for Valentine’s Day dinner and it took over an hour for our entrees to come out. When they did they were cold and had clearly been sitting out for a while. Seemed like the restaurant didn’t staff accordingly for a holiday that’s busy every year. Kind of annoying when you book a month in advance and then experience such poor service. Was grateful for our lovely waitress, but probably won’t spend another major holiday at this place.

Enjoyed a fairly quick drink here. The prices are steep, the service was neither outrageous nor impressive, and I probably wouldn't return.
We hosted a client dinner at Water's Table on January 17, 2024. From the initial inquiry to follow up after our event, the service was exceptional. The team helped us coordinate flower arrangements, room set up and a custom menu design. Rob Miller was outstanding. His communication was so prompt and the level of service he provided was truly next level. Thank you to the team! We will definitely be back.

Amazing location - water views and airplanes. Cannot ask for better.The food was excellent. The calamari appetizer was incredible, super fresh and tasty. The main (I took the scallops) was perfect.I did think the pairing of scallops with collard greens was a bit odd, then again this has nothing to do with the taste, just a personal dislike for this and I certainly could have done without.The person attending to us was very polite and knowledgeable about the wines on offer and pairings. Always a good sign.Parking was a bit of a nightmare to find but this is for general knowledge and no fault of the restaurant.

Nice restaurant and thoughtful prompt service. I imagine it would be especially nice during the summer with that view!The food came out quickly and everyone (including our somewhat picky kids) enjoyed their food.The waiter also noticed my mom was having a difficult time (including some back pain) and he spent extra time to make her feel comfortable.
