    Great restaurant, fantastic seafood. We had the seared ahi, the seafood buccatini, a lobster bisque, the crab and lobster dip, and a couple of by the glass wines. We lucked out with a sunny afternoon and a gorgeous sunset, after a rainy morning. There are a handful of restaurants by the water in Seattle, and this is easily in the top of the list. You want to impress guests, a date, or business partners, and enjoy delicious food yourself? Bring them here. Our waiter was Brian and his smile and upbeat attitude made the experience even better! I knocked down a star because it was disappointing to have a tablecloth with holes, and a lap napkin with holes. These took away from the fine dining experience. Also, opentable marks this "$$", I think that with $40-50 entrees it should be a "$$$" restaurant.

    Came for a work dinner with a colleague from out of town. Beautiful setting. Unfortunately that’s where the positive experience stopped. This dinner was a total comedy. Elected to start with raw oysters followed by salads and a main. Wonderful. 20 minutes pass, then the salads arrive. Ask after the oysters and the person delivering the salads didn’t know about oysters. Took the salads away. The manager shows up (good on them) to apologize and say that they’re sending a more experienced chef to the oyster bar (?!?). 10 more minutes. The oysters arrive and they’re full of crushed shell. We power through, it’s a beautiful setting. Before the oysters are done, what’s this? Yes, our old friends the salads back to the table. A bit wilted, but hey, they taste good. Not sure why we’re being rushed though. It’s a Tuesday evening and the place is only 1/3 full. No matter. We finish the oysters and start the salads when, you guessed it, the entrees show up. At this point we’re just laughing. The table is pretty crowded but the fish is perfectly cooked. Unfortunately every vegetable on the plate was raw. Raw, but warm, Brussels sprouts. Raw new potatoes. Not slightly raw. Like raw, rinsed-in-warm-water-raw. Manager came by again and comped the oysters. Whatever. Damage done. Do not go to Palisade with any expectation beyond the cocktails and the view.

    Our server, Brit, was outstanding. She was positive, friendly and helpful. We both enjoyed the meal - my steak was tender and flavorful and his prime rib was perfect. We’re looking forward to going back soon!!

    Excellent view, good service, and very good food at a fair price. Not noisy so you can also carry on a conversation with others at your table which you can’t do at Aqua. Bars serves good and generous drinks. They are slowly restoring the fish and other animals in their artificial tide pool which were killed by pollution from Elliott Bay (they draw in water from the bay).

    We had a surprise birthday dinner for my wife with 3 other couples. When my wife and I walked in early we were greeted promptly and the hostess said oh, you’re here for the surprise birthday! Unfortunate, since it was for my wife but we survived and had a great time. Our waiter, Jack, did an excellent job taking care of our needs. Drinks, food, and desserts were also excellent.

    This large restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows provide a sweeping 180-degree view from downtown to the Olympic mountains. The food quality and presentation are equally stunning. At my first time here for lunch, the salmon was exceptional, perfectly moist and flaky with a colorful and tender selection of vegetables and potatoes. The new key lime pie also got high marks. If you haven't been here for a while, or only thought of it as a destination restaurant for special occasions, do yourself a favor and come any day or evening for a memorable and satisfying dining experience.
