    Food and service were very good. Tables were too close together = felt crunched in. I still cannot get my head wrapped around food and drink prices. At ages 80 and 84, we can remember pre-covid prices easily.

    Amazing food! The lobster chowder is not to be missed! The Dungeness deviled egg was amazing and I had the scallops, shrimp and Uncrabcake combo. Perfection 👌

    We liked the restaurant but the fish is definitely over cooked. Not sure what a chef in Seattle can’t cook fish properly
