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

    Stopped by for lunch before an appointment in the neighborhood. Nice ambiance with a water view. Enough things on the menu to make a lighter meal at a reasonable price. Attentive service.

    This was one on my favorites but the quality and presentation has went down. The crab stuffed halibut looked all mashed up and the carrot cake should have been called ginger bread. While the waiter was nice there was never a checkin to see how the meal was or how the awful dessert was. The waiter did arrive promptly to deliver the bill though.

    Food was great, service was excellent, everything was great until one of the staff sprayed windex on a window next to our table and the windex chemicals stunk up our food and table. Wife got a good wiff of it and had to go outside after feeling sick from inhaling it. Not a good experience while eating a $400+ meal for 4.
