Clubby corporate restaurant draws seafood lovers with fresh daily catches and posh atmosphere.

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.

I have eaten at McCormick and Schmick at this location, on two previous occasions, and all was satisfactory. I took some friends there recently (Fe. 06) and the service was terrible.

The orders were slow, and to top it off, three people ordered desserts--which are ready, right? Only after 30 minute of inaction, and a complaint to the maitre' de, did we get

our desserts--whcih were not very good.

I will not return, nor will I recommend the place to anyone.
