In Short – Upscale and sophisticated, this chain features art deco-inspired trappings such as dark wood, shiny brass and beveled glass. Servers clad in black and white weave through cocktailing couples and businessmen at the bar. The classic American, seasonally inspired seafood menu changes daily; specialties include starters of Dungeness crab cakes and oysters on the half shell, plus entrees like cedar plank-roasted salmon, sauteed lobster with scallops and rock shrimp, and seared yellowfin tuna with wasabi, soy and ginger.

When you're in the mood for an innovative menu
by ParticleBry
First off this is near the top of expensive worthwhile dining in seattle. This is the place you go when youre in the mood for extremely quality ingredients assembled into flavor combinations you would not expect. In that the chef does a fantastic job. The menu is printed every day with the catch of the day and the chef's choices. The setting is quaint and romatic. I would recommend reservations and nice attire.
- Pros: food, service
- Cons: expense

Come at 10pm & you'll be satisfied!

A much needed date night for me and my SO -- we have two little ones 3 and under so if we get a chance to get out, we try to live it up! In was a gorgeous day in Seattle so outdoor seating was a MUST! We decided on McCormick's on Lake Union. We were pleasantly surprised....the hostess, he was very pleasant and seated us on the deck quickly! Lovely! Our waiter, he was SO SO that's why I only gave 4 stars. He mentioned feeling sick so he kept forgetting what we asked for him for but we were in no rush so it wasn't a big deal. We were enjoying the ambience. It was about 9:30pm and we were told Happy Hour started at 10:00pm so we just sipped our tasty drinks until then. Once 10pm struck - we ordered the cheapest (they were all cheap $2 - 5) and quite delicious appetizers! The Ahi Tuna rolls were excellent... I love red pepper and never get that with my rolls so I was pleased. We also ordered dinner! Dinner was average - I had the macadamia crusted halibut and my SO the crab/brie stuffed salmon. Both were average in taste... but we then ordered the Happy Hour dessert of Hazelnut Mousse which was really quite good. I think the Happy Hour appetizers/dessert, drinks and the outdoor seating make this a place we will return to. Honestly, we will probably skip dinner next time -- prices were pretty steep for an average meal. We had a wonderful evening....and we'll be back - at 10pm!
- Pros: The greatest Happy Hour (10pm), wonderful outdoor seating, pleasant hostess...
- Cons: Food was high priced and average, paying for parking is never fun!

Bad service, Too expensive
by poundingsurf
Everytime I go here, the service gets worse. The drinks are overpriced and the food ..... well just forget it, I would prefer a can of tuna over the cold salmon sliver I was served. Saw the kitchen staff smoking outside, Not going back.
- Pros: Easy access to the nearest exit
- Cons: food, smoking cooks, parking
