    I came here with a large party of 11 people, we were worried that we wouldn't fit well and it would be a problem. But they made it clear that they were happy to have us! Everyone was wonderful and our server Kristi was stunning! She helped reccomend items and while having other tables served everything in a timely manner and even was able to chat and joke with us. The food was great, the few amazing. I hope to be back soon!

    We decided to try this restaurant since we haven't been there for a long time. The view is nice and the service is good. The special three course meal is priced competitively. The clam chowder had plenty of clams and tasted fine. We ordered the prime rib and it was tender, but the au jus sauce was pretty tasteless. The crab and artichoke dip reminded me of the creamed tuna on toast that my mom used to make for meatless Friday dinners, something we would not order again. Service was excellent until it was time for dessert. By the time we got our molten lava cake, it was cold and a little mushy. Maybe that's the way it's supposed to be. We chose Stanley and Seafort's to celebrate a birthday and use up a couple of discount coupons. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant, but we probably won't return because the food is too mediocre for our tastes.

    Thank you for the wonderful experience celebrating a 21st birthday. Thank you Andrew for having incredible customer service. Thank you also for giving us the opportunity to have dinner at your restaurant and accommodating the request for a gluten free, dairy free meal, all suggestions were delicious.

    Sadly, the food was cold and not very tasty. The music overhead was way too loud and the server was friendly but had too many tables so there was a long wait when asking for items like another beverage and salt and pepper.

    Not a better view in Tacoma, food is great, the servers were attentive throughout the meal. We got the 3 course meal to celebrate our engagement, food came in perfect intervals for conversation and to not be rushed eating. Audrey the server ended our night with the molten chocolate cake with "engaged" spelled out in chocolate. We cannot wait to come back soon

    Unfortunately, my wife’s steak was well undercooked when first brought to the table along with my dinner and my daughter’s dinner. Our server returned the steak to the kitchen when asked. When it eventually returned, the steak, the same steak, was still well undercooked. Our waitperson, when advised again, went to speak with the manager. She then told us the manager would be right over. The manager did not come right over. Our waitperson returned a bit later, while the steak was still in front of my wife, and asked if the manager had come by. We advised no, and she took the steak again. The manager then came by while my wife sat with no food and my daughter and I slowly ate our food. The manager offered my wife a salad which she accepted. The steak returned again, the same steak, and was finally cooked to my wife’s order. Our waitperson apologized, offered us complimentary dessert and removed the steak from the bill. Our waitperson was fantastic. Very disappointed with the cook staff and delayed response from the manager. Back in the late 1980’s, I lived in Tacoma attending grad school and knew Peter Stanley who was then one of the owners. Peter would have been greatly disappointed with our experience. We will probably not return.

    Really good food. The Mahi mahi was delicious and cooked just right. The filet could’ve used more seasoning but was cooked perfectly. The sirloin flavorful and cooked perfectly-it was great! Loved the dipping sauce for the coconut shrimp! The waiter was busy and not the most present but did the job.

    OK-- short and sweet... the seafood alfredo fettuccine is so comforting; porkchop is the best in Tacoma; the bread pudding is "to die for", excellent consistency, lots of caramel sauce, and an added layer of "creme brulee" which makes it a signature move for the chef! Our sever, Andres, was really great, along with the hostess (the staff here is wonderful)! Come and enjoy their ever improving menue ;) PS: Splurge on the Ora King Salmon-- worth every bite!

    I have driven past this iconic location for 20 years, decided to try it The experience was “tired”. This is an old, worn structure with character and a unique view of Tacoma, but the service was uninspired (server showed no interest in being at work) but not rude, menu was nice but food no better than averagely prepared Overall, this is a formerly premium dining experience in Tacoma that, decades on, is average in all regards except price which is still premium (25% higher than other Tacoma restaurants)
