I made the walk over here for dinner and it was a moderate crowd for the night... maybe about a third full. I sat at the bar and ordered my dinner. I got the clan chowder... which was excellent. I also got the sesame crusted ahi tuba... which was also excellent. Really, I give the food quality five stars. The only negative was the service. The bartender did a great job and was very friendly... but it took a long time for my meal to arrive. It was probably about 30-45 minutes after I ordered it that it showed up. I think the issue was more in the kitchen than with the bartender and maybe they are faster other nights. I have eaten at other locations before and always enjoy my meals at a McCormick & Schmick.
