   Really enjoyable! I was in Tacoma for an event later in the day and decided to enjoy a late lunch. Good move to go during non-peak hours when it was slow. I had the Dungeness crab sandwich, which was excellent. The clam chowder was also very good; the server asked if I had tried it before, which I had not, and informed me that it is made differently than many places with a non-dairy base. It was uniquely delicious. Beautiful waterfront setting. I look forward to returning!

   Very Nice. I got home about two hours ago, so I've had time to reflect. The aromas coming out of the kitchen by the waiting area set the sensors on alert—and rightly so! I ordered two entrees just for me; my wife got hers: a shrimp cocktail bowl and fried calamari. Nothing is ever perfect, but they are knocking on the door. I'll remember that name as well. I won't say until I see you again. fantastic evening.

   Great setting on the Tacoma waterfront with beautiful views. We were seated promptly and had good service throughout our meal, although our beverages were never refilled. Loved the warm bread with butter that was served prior to our meal. Our entrees were very good, with my only complaint being that I felt like my entree (halibut with rhubarb sauce) was not that large in size given its $47 price, and the small smear of rhubarb sauce was fairly insignificant -- still tasty, just not plentiful. My husband's meal (cioppino and salad) was a large quantity of food and much more reasonably priced.

   Great place for lunch. Food was delicious and it was fun to see the float planes land.

    We went early at 4pm and was able to get a window table. Great view, server was good...quick and not intrusive. I had salmmon and my husband had a steak, cooked rare, just like he liked it. The room was calm and not too noisy so we were able to talk and enjoy ourselves.
