Each year family comes for holidays and we spend one meal at a local restaurant. This year Clinkerdagger's was selected. Atmosphere and service were 5 star. Meals we were served contained chicken, shrimp and crab and salmon. The chicken was mostly dry as if it had been cooked very early and left under a heat lamp. The shrimp in the Crab and Shrimp Fettucine was hard and rubbery and all but unedible. I understand the need to save and make money in the industry but this was not a good idea. My total bill was over $300. which I don't mind spending but not for this type of food.
I will choose another restaurant next year and I will not be making any recommendations only explaining our experience..

Food and atmosphere are both fine like always. Problem = The main manager, who is short with short blonde hair, always has such a bad attitude. She's very passive aggressive and an all around unhappy person to interact with or hear talking to others.

Visited the Clinkerdagger weekend of October 21st for dinner. Made reservations ahead of time. Glad we did, place was packed. I love old buildings and really appreciate the uniqueness of this establishment. A great atmosphere! I had the scallops, my friend had the wagu steak. Both were very good, drinks from the bar also great. Our server was friendly and efficient. Great night out, look forward to returning. Thank you!

We made a reservation 1 day early, and they still managed to get us a table at the window overlooking the falls. Of course, we did arrive 15 min early at just before 5pm. It was wonderful food and beautiful scenery. I recommend them.

Clinkerdagger is a hard one for me. I like this restaurant a lot, but the kitchen seems to be perpetually slow and far behind the wait staff. Have had multiple visits here that lasted two hours due to how slow the kitchen was. Each time, Clinkerdagger has at least done right by us by comping some things or providing free desserts. It's a beautiful restaurant in a great location... they just need to figure out what the problem is in the kitchen.

Everything was amazing, from start to finish. The staff is professional and upscale but it doesn’t feel stuffy. The prime rib and crème brûlée are worth every penny! For a special occasion or splurge, this is THE place in Spokane.

Have now been twice. Once for an anniversary with my gf, once with my two parents whom live out of state. Elevated, thoughtful menu with diverse options. Knowledgeable front of house staff who provide great service and recommendations. I'd recommend making a reservation, but this place is sure to wow any date or special guests.
Absolutely excellent. It’s a tradition now to take my mom to dinner here for her bday. It’s a blast. They have an amazing ambiance and the food is top tier. Thank you for the amazing night!

Please make reservations if your able to, makings waiting a bit less during peak hours
Nathan mac was our waiter and he made the WHOLE experiance- inviting, thrilling and immensely entertaining. He is the waiter who makes the experience along with the Great food and Pleasant atmosphere. When we come back we will try and aim for his tables.
The drinks (alcoholic) where very delicious and I personally was pleased when he said they may be able.to customize something for me and they did!
The food we delicious. They don't have a massive selection however, I'd say that's a bonus as what they have is pretty delicious. I'd rather a place with a smaller menu with perfected food then a massive menu where the quality is all over the place. The serving size was perfect. OH and that garlic bread! Don't say no to the free garlic bread!
During the day you can see the beautiful falls and spokane river, at night you see the city lights and the glimmer of the moon off the water, it sets a real nice mood. The theme to the restaurant to me comes off ritzy tavern (which we loved very much)
They have in my opinion the best creme Brule and the French onion soup is as close to what I had in Europe that I've had so far.
All in all I hope everyone gives this place a chance. It's a bit pricey but the price is well worth it!

First time dining here. Wife & sister-in-law’s shared birthday (fraternal twins). Staff were very pleasant, but visibly stressed. Service was very slow though. Took a long time to get drinks, even longer for appetizer, but wait worth it. The warm Brie w/apple slices and basaltic glaze was delicious.
Both myself & sister-in-law had the surf & Turk linguini w/thai cilantro sauce. The consistency in portions between the two dishes was way off. I had a lot of spinach whereas she has very little. I had 8 shrimp where she had 3. She had more steak bites than I. I shared a few of my shrimp. I also had more Thai sauce than she did. But the problem was I could see right away the shrimp were not cooked properly.
Some were undercooked while others overcooked. She felt like they tasted okay to her so she ate hers as she was just hungry and wanted to eat. Not me as I am cautious w/improperly cooked shellfish. So I pulled out and set aside then went to eat what few steak bites I had. Overcooked and solid like a lump of cream of wheat that wasn’t properly prepared.
Server came over and I explained and he got the manager. Explained same to him and he asked what he could do for me. I asked for more steak bites that were medium. No more shrimp though cause I was already turned off. So they made that right and I enjoyed the rest of the meal.
My wife’s meal was the wagyu steak and it was cooked to order and she enjoyed it. Desert was great as well.
Went home and all was great…until 1am when my sister-in-law was up for several hours VOMITING the near entirety of her dinner due to the bad shrimp in her dish. Once done being sick and sleeping the rest of the morning, she felt better after some water & saltine crackers.
Not a pleasant experience visiting us and taking her and my wife to their birthday dinner just for her to get sick.
So be cautious when eating shellfish at this place. Inspect it before eating it less you become sick too.

We dine her quite often. And the last time was the worst experience I have ever had! Our waitress was terrible. She took our drink order, and we asked for bread... drinks finally came and no bread. Then when she finally brought the bread 15 minutes later she didn't offer to take our order. We told her we wanted to order. Then someone else brought our dinner out and she proceeded to tell her she's got it and started serving us. Our steaks were not prepared correctly and tge potatoes were runny and she never came back to check on us or offer to refill drinks or order more drinks... thank goodness my husband isn't super picky and swapped our sons raw steak with his so he could eat. She came with the check and we told her we didn't want to use our points and she didn't listen and still used them and then had the nerve to ask my husband in front of everyone on the patio if he was Native because of his last name! Completely ruined my birthday dinner with my family! I recommend if you go there do it on the weekend when the attentive wait staff is on duty! We were there 3 weeks ago for our anniversary and it was amazing but again it was on a Saturday not a monday like my birthday!
