We enjoyed brunch here. Service was great and food was amazing. Atmosphere was nice, view was amazing even on a wet & rainy day. Great food selections & the pineapple Mimosa was delicious paired with the bread and pesto/garlic dip. The king prawn cocktail was also amazing. We definitely love the chill atmosphere looking at the water. Love that menu have kid's foods as well. We take our kids with us places & having that options allows us to enjoy a great place. Definitely a plus & will visit again.
Nice sea food restaurant with excellent view of the sound in Tacoma. It is located right on the sound and has fantastic view. Has many tables in the outside deck but unfortunately the day I visited was bit cold so got a table inside. Inside is nice, with large windows you can see the sound as if you are sitting outside. The food was generally good, however the prawns were way over cooked, so they were too hard and dry. This happened to my dish and my friend’s dish too. They were such large prawns and unfortunate that they were not cooked right. Crab cakes were very good. Lobster bisque (or any soup) is large portion if you order a bowl size. It is creamy and full of flavor, the taste is sherry was a tiny bit too strong.
I visited here with a friend for the first time, upon entering and being seated on the outside deck I felt a little uncomfortable as it felt as if I was being stared at by other caucasian guests. I decided to choose a different table and I am so glad that I did. I was able to meet and interact with our vibrant waitress Leah. She was absolutely lovely, her customer service skills are terrific and she was able to offer advice regarding the best meals that this restaurant has to offer. We ordered the Crab cakes appetizer, Warm Seafood Salad (to die for !), Australian Lobster Entree (10oz), Garden in a glass x3, Golden sour and a Peanut butter pie. All of which were delicious, but what really made my visit one worth bragging about was our bubbly waitress, Leah.
Lobster, shrimp and salmon trio with mashed potatoes. Normally this comes with broccolini but I traded for mushrooms. The lobster was very good, shrimp in my opinion was cooked a tad long and the salmon was very yummy but a little too much sauce under it. I enjoyed it though and shared items few bites with my husband and still brought a little home for later. The lobster dip was very good but it’s a big appetizer so I hope there are a few of you to share it. Too much for the 2 of us but we love leftovers and the waiter brought us more bread to take home with it. My husband ordered the seafood Louie salad. He enjoyed that a lot. As well as lobster bisque. That was good but very sweet. He thankfully ordered the cup not the bowl. All in all it was very great food.
