    This is a go to for Pacific NW seafood when friends are in town. Good service and when anything is off they are quick to make it right. For instance, this evening Manager Nicole was quick to put things right and ensure we had a wonderful celebration evening!!

    My wife and I went to Cutter's Crabhouse this past Friday night. We arrive on time for our reservation, and we were seated immediately with no waiting. When making our reservations I requested a bottle of chilled champagne be waiting for us at our table, and when we were shown to our table the champagne was there and ready to be opened. The manager came to the table and opened the champagne while chatting with us, poured the champagne and then introduced us to our server, Brett, who very very personable. We ordered Calamari Misto, 2 salads (blue cheese and Ceasar), my wife ordered wild caught King Salmon as her entrée, I ordered the Cioppino. The courses all arrived at a comfortable, unhurried pace, and the server was very helpful, friendly and professionally efficient. All of the food was delicious, nothing detracting whatsoever. The appetizer was piping hot and perfectly seasoned, the salads were fresh and well dressed and the entrées beautiful to look at and even better tasting. I will comment here that the portion sizes at Cutter's are very generous. The Calamari could easily have fed 3 or 4 people, and the salads were large by Seattle restaurant standards. My wife's piece of salmon was substantial and skillfully prepared. My bowl of Cioppino was large and willed with a delicious assortment of seafood, including 4 Dungeness crab legs. Brett continued to pour our champagne and wine at attentive intervals, and treated us to a shared dessert after our meal. All in all this was a wonderful dining experience, the food was generously portioned and beautifully prepared and Brett did an amazing job of taking care of us and making us feel completely tended to. I would definitely recommend giving Cutter's Crabhouse a try, we will definitely be visiting more often!

    We came for our love of all things crab. Our hotel concierge suggested it. The service was salary, not very attentive. We spent $220 for 3 shared items including a very poorly provided Sampler plate of all 3 legs. I could not recommend it.

    Food was just ok. I ordered the trio. The shrimp were good, the salmon was really dry and flavorless. Service was not very attentive.

    It’s okay. Good deals on happy hour drinks and appetizers. The sushi grade appetizers were good but nothing was outstanding. We had a good time. I would have preferred to get a bite and drink here and had formal dinner somewhere else.
