    Poor service and bad quality foods. Our server checked on us only once or twice during the whole meal. Water was not refilled so we had to go and grab the water ourselves. Halibut was dry. Fish tacos was just some fish and coleslaw.

    We visited at lunch time 5/24 to watch the sea planes etc., was so fun. Food was great, service was also great. We went back 5/25 for dinner because we had a few new folks join our party and it was excellent again! Great food, nice space… gets a little loud, but worth it.

    Love this place for clam chowder and seafood plus they moved their Lake Union location since the last time we were in Seattle almost 5 years ago. Now it’s in an even nicer location and we sat on the patio overlooking the lake. Still great food and excellent service.

    Sat on the heated patio overlooking the marina and enjoyed delicious seafood, friendly service and refreshing cocktails. Even saw some seaplanes land and take off. The salmon bites were a great start and the halibut was fresh and perfectly prepared.
