- JJudithSeattle / Eastern Washington •10 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food, service and ambiance was great. The noise level was a little high, but did not impact table conversation. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It is one of the few that has maintained its level of experience over the many years it has been in businessMore infoStanley & Seafort'sPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Tacoma•4.4
- JJillSeattle / Eastern Washington •17 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoService was top notch. I am happy we got seating down below as seating up top looked more like cafeteria seating. Down below felt more quaint and upscale. Food was absolutely fantastic. Seafood pillows were delicious, artichoke crab dip served with fry bread. Then had miso cod which I was a little worried about about the wasabi sauce, but it was not bad at all. I don’t care for wasabi. Also had the lamb, a variety of sushi and the Hamachi collar all at the table. Everything was fantastic. Service was impeccable, but did take a while to get the bill.More infoWOVEN Seafood & Chophouse by Roy YamaguchiPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Tacoma•4.4

We have been coming to OTMC for a decade and have never been disappointed. I am usually a steak guy, but tried the scallop/risotto dinner and it was fantastic.

Discover Tacoma
Nestled in one of the most livable areas in America, Tacoma is a hub of activity with over 50 parks and open spaces. The 43 bus routes crisscrossing the "City of Destiny" allow for convenient access to the robust food scene here.
