We had a great experience at Boathouse 19 in Tacoma. Our waitress truly went above and beyond. She was so kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole meal even better. The food was excellent across the board. The fish and chips were perfectly cooked, the clams were delicious, and the fish burger was a standout. Even the kids’ burgers were a hit, which says a lot. Wonderful service, great food, and a place we’ll absolutely come back to. Highly recommend.

Great location on the waterfront. This venue is pretty casual. Wait staff are always helpful and friendly. Shawna was our server tonight. Excellent customer report. This week's special offerings include yummy lobster. I opted for a lobster tail, fresh grilled asparagus, smashed grilled potatoes abd clarified dipping butter. All prepared well. My husband enjoyed scampi roasted lobster tail with a creamy lobster sauced fettuccini, asparagus, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. It was topped with grated parmesan cheese and included toast.

Boathouse 19 boasts a prime location on the Puget Sound. While its accessibility may present a slight challenge, requiring navigation through the marina, over railroad tracks, and behind the brewery, its integration within the boathouse structure (as the name suggests) is undeniable. Access to the establishment is typically gained either through the restaurant's entrance or by traversing its interior, unless marina access is available. The ambiance is exceptional; upon entry, the aroma of cooking seafood, the visual display of nets, boats suspended from the rafters, and the photographic decor, immediately evoke a sense of immersion in the Puget Sound experience. Expansive windows on the left offer stunning views of the marina, enhancing the overall atmosphere, regardless of the season, whe

Looking for a place along the waterfront and found this place. The location is kind of hidden away and limited parking close by but you can’t beat the view of the sound and Tacoma Narrows bridge. It was a Friday night and luckily the 3 in our party was over 21 so we got to sit in the bar area. Our waiter was very knowledgeable but also the bartender. Menu had great options and pricing was to be expected for the location. I was excited about the deep fried pickles when I asked if spears or chips but I guess now I should ask if it’s “dill or sweet” because these were sweet. I’m not a fan of sweet pickles but I ordered them so was gonna finish. I love clam chowder and this one did not disappoint! The garlic bread was crispy but had too much garlic (there is such a thing lol). My other 2 compa

Redeemed... As I said, normally I'm a Fan... and a Fan again! I didn't make this post because I was trying to disparage Boathouse 19's reputation... but rather as a point of transparency to give way to awareness to unable opportunity for betterment... being in the industry I welcome feedback good or bad ass it allows for me to strengthen and improve my skills to ensure that I will provide guests with an amazing experience...so needless to say I was pleasantly surprised that the opportunity was utilized, and so I will revisit and enjoy a lovely meal today thanks to Danielle. Updated... Normally I'm a Fan.. but somehow my server lost my credit card between running and returning it.. then tried to make it out to be my fault and after raising her voice to me trying to tell me that i must hav
