Best Crab Feast in Town

by PatBoone at Citysearch

Went there on a saturday night when the crabpot was on a hour wait.

We were seated in a couple minutes on a table by the window with a amazing view of Elliott Bay.

The dining room is all dark wood with laterns and a little on the dark side. The restaurant feels like a well established old school fish house.

The service was attentative and friendly. The server went through the menu and explained the specialities and the four course feasts.

We order the crab feast and it was pricey but after seeing all the food we were served we felt like it was a great value.

We were served a red and white chowder, two buckets of clams and mussels for our group of four, a large mixed greens salad, and mountains of crab. It was a mix of dungeness, king and snow crab. We are all good eaters and we had crab left over.

The staff was all very friendly and we were thanked for coming in from everyone from our server the busser and the host.

The manager stoppped by to check on us partly through the meal and found out from conversation we were celebrating an anniversary. They bought us a dessert since our friends were celebrating their anniversay. We had the bread pudding which was delicious.

A friendly staff and great food, with a view

Great view, service and seafood

I had a great meal at the Fishermans.

I am a large man as was my brother and they were quick to offer us chairs that were more comfortable without arms. We are both over 350lbs.

They were also able to fill us up with the oversized crab feast. Four courses Chowder that the best I've had, clams and mussels in a wonderful clam broth, generous mixed green salad, and the main course of mounds of fresh crab.

We enjoyed a free birthday dessert that was huge. It was a pumpkin carmel mud pie.

The service from Justin was some of the best we have had, the food fresh and over portioned, the view was relaxing and calming.

We'll be back soon.

Best view in seattle!

We had a great time visiting the Fishermans. The location is great, the food and service was equal to the view.

The menu is mostly seafood, hence the name I should have known. I did notice that they offered burgers, steaks, pastas, and salads. But I was there for seafood.

We had the crab feast and it was amazing. Sooo much food, a little pricey but not when you consider we couldn't eat all the crab.

Cant wait to go back. Our server Geri was fun and kept all our drinks full and was always there when we needed anything.

Not worth the wait or view!

We arrived and were seated upstairs (in chairs that don't accommodate wider patrons.) The service people were friendly throughout, but despite the fresh seafood, we did not leave happy customers. Our drinks were weak and pricey (we were told we could PAY for an extra shot of rum!) I for one am tired of sourdough bread; the chowder was a clump of flavorless flour, the "baked potato" was dry, unattractively presented red potatoes, and the rice substitute, also dry. The broccoli was not cooked. The tartar sauce was not adequate despite two extra servings (lost in cabbage leaves), and the birthday key lime pie - honestly, I thought maybe is was one of those fake display desserts - heavy in texture and not a hint of citrus other than a lime slice in top. For $80 I felt cheated and told those wating on our way out. What a waste of prime real estate Fisherman's Restaurant has become.

• Pros: Service, fresh seafood
• Cons: everything else....
