   Beautiful atmosphere with 180 puget sound view that is stunning. See across the water to Whidbey Island. The food was outstanding, main course, side dishes all delicious. Best piece of fish I have had at a restaurant for some time now. Can't wait to go back!

   Lovely views and great service. The food was 4/5; the short ribs and drinks were delicious, the clam chowder was terrible. Overall great experience.

   We really enjoyed the earlybird Lighthouse menu for our group of six. It's a great value for three courses at $32. We each started with a salad or soup. Several of us had the pork chop which was excellent, the sauce was very good and it was cooked perfectly. One person had the salmon and really enjoyed it. And another one had the steak frites and enjoyed it, but did comment the portions on it were small and will order the pork chop next time. Some of us had the creamy buttery potato puree included with our meal. That was so good. Everyone loved their dessert. The white chocolate raspberry ice cream was amazing. We've had Hook and Cleaver's ice cream from Olympic Mountain Creamery before, and it is some of the best. We'll definitely be going back soon.

   Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your group enjoyed the Lighthouse Menu. The Steak Frites and salmon may be petite, but we’re glad they left a lasting impression! And yes, the chocolate raspberry ice cream is truly something special. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back soon!

   Magical birthday dinner for a 77 year old. Ian was great - attentive and nice to talk with. I had steak which was cooked to my liking. Baked potato was tasty. Table shared desserts - ice cream and bread pudding. Will definitely return and recommend.

   This was our second time at Hook and Cleaver. First time was very good. This time not so much. We felt ignored and forgotten. Food was fine, but under support staffed. It took way too long to clear our entrees and then to finally get the dessert. If the dessert wasn't included as part of the Valentine's special, we would have left before getting it.

   Fantastic Valentines Day! The staff was phenomenal! Our server was Fil R, amazing! The bussing team was also Fantastic and were quick to either clean up, refill, or set tables. Not one table sat too long before it was ready for the next guests.

    We were early for our reservation so slipped into bar area for a cocktail. Very nice atmosphere with nice view and good drinks. Wait staff was amazing. While waiting staff informed us we could dine in this area as well, definitely an option next time. We got seated in main dining area and much more of the same views and helpful staff. Food was delicious and had a great experience. Definitely going to return in the future and try their Happy Hour.
