Restaurants near Lower Turning Basin

Atmosphere: Perfect: great ambience, nice/large round table in the back corner with dim lighting; extremely clean (not a hint of cigarette smoke in the elevator or restaurant). Presented very classy. Service: Hostess was excellent (welcoming, professional); seating time was impeccable. Waiter (from start to finish): Extraordinary!!! Equal to the food, he went “above and beyond.” Professional, knowledgeable, classy, attentive - but not overly so; VERY kind/polite. He presented well and represented this restaurant with absolute top tier class. He made the experience luxurious and he will be the reason we return. Food: We had Ribeye Steak, Chicken salad, Salmon, and Clam Chowder, vegetables, rolls…all amazing). Sons had Chardonnay wine, loved it. The Chef is the best now we’ve experienced, so far (Italy, France, London, Germany, Hawaii, Tokyo, Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, etc.). To say this restaurant exceeded our expectations is an understatement. Price: Right on point for quality and service. Location: This restaurant is worth the drive to Tacoma. Parking: Clean. Huge parking garage. High ceilings - can fit any size vehicles (large trucks); bright lighting; present physical security; cameras; close walk to elevators. Directions: Drive past the Casino entrance/drive around to second stop sign (one going to the left and one that will take you straight or to the right): Go left. Very next left turn (into the “East” garage). Take the elevator to the 4th floor. At the security check, circle to the left hall to next set of elevators; take elevator to the 11th floor. Amazing view!

Well prepared Thanksgiving meal and unique drinks. We got seated about 10 minutes early when we arrived. Our server was attentive and quick, and our food came quickly.

Our server, Kevin was great. He connected with us and gave recommendations to my son and I based on what we liked. He was personable and knowledgeable about the menu. Service level was awesome. Kevins helpers were attentive in picking up our empty dishes as we finished each thing. I love that!!
