McCormick & Schmick's Seafood

The first time there and it was great! The staff was great, very friendly. Our server was very helpful and attentive. I've never had oysters before and after we talked about it, we were taken to the house a few. Not sure if I would try them again, lol, but it was definitely that over and over service that is missing in many factories today.

Last night we celebrated my husband's birthday at McCormick and Schmick in Minneapolis. It was a fabulous evening with special menus with a happy birthday printed to my husband at the top. I started with the Millionaire Coffee that was great. Our server was wonderful. She knew the menu well and had a great sense of humor. We had a private stand that made it a little more intimate. We ordered a variety of appetizers from shrimp cocktails to Oysters Rockefeller. All were beautifully plated and tasty. The main courses met all expectations. I had the Ultimate Mixed Grill. The crab filled shrimps and the crab cakes were my favorites. We also had the North Atlantic Lobster Tails, Center Cut Filet Mignon, and I think the Palm Beach Mahi Mahi. All were beautifully presented and were beautifully seasoned and delicious. The desserts were a perfect way to complete a great culinary experience. Because it was my husband's birthday, he got a free Chocolate Volcano. Again, the presentation was great and she disappeared quickly. The rest of us shared the chocolate bag. White chocolate mousse, fresh berries and whipped cream in a bag of chocolate. It was absolutely decadent! We had an interesting conversation with more employees when we were gone. We never felt hurried. The whole evening was great and relaxed. My only complaint is that we were not told which pages came with each main course and did not say it on the menu. That is why we have ordered additional pages that we did not need. Apart from that, it was the perfect culinary experience.

Friend wanted a steak while we were in downtown. Many places to choose, but I was never here and it was nearby. Parking ramp only one block over, so it is super comfortable as the parking space in the city center can be anger. The atmosphere was beautiful. We sat from a large group of at least 8 to 10 people so that what we thought would be a quiet evening didn't turn out that way. Everything came out in time. The roasted assorted vegetables were almost a little towards the burnt side, but still has good taste. Right with the steaks. We felt our ribeyes had used a little more spices.

Comfortable, upscale restaurant friendly promptly noteworthy server food and drinks served in time table in the bar through the window hot sourdough rolls with butter delicious menu options ordered Ultimate Mixed Grill and seafood trio; grilled salmon, crabs filled shrimps, grilled shrimps and crab cake with green beans and potatoes beautiful presentation why 4 stars? Food was very delicious, but was not hot...
