Everything was superb. This is the 3rd time we've dined with McCormick & Schmick's. We like to eat here when we fly out of BWI. It was an amazing date night meal before starting our vacation. "T", our server, was absolutely spot on, attentive without being intrusive! The food was amazing. My wife had the crab stuffed salmon and I had the seared ahi tuna. Everything done to perfection. We'll be back next time we're in town.

Ruxton's was fantastic. I had the Bone-in-Delmonico steak, cooked to a PERFECT medium, with truffle butter as an accoutrement, I could not be more satisfied with my choice. I have eaten at plenty of steak houses on par with Ruxton's, but my meal at Ruxton's was as good as the very best of them, if not better. I would recommend Ruxton's to anyone as a top notch dining experience!

The manager on the ground made a huge difference in the experience. We waited a few minutes to get water once we arrived and she made sure to change the pace and the attention we got from that point on. She was awesome. The food and drinks were really really good. Definitely recommend anyone to go.
