Stanley & Seafort's

The location is the sell. The overlook of downtown Tacoma and Commencement Bay is outstanding! We had a birthday event so we used the back room for a party of 20. The staff was outstanding with the timing of every phase of dinner. The dinner was excellent. We all had a different entrees and my dish was the Salmon. The potatoes and beans were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I believe our waiter was Corey. I asked for a card, clicked on a QR codecand comments mentioned that name. If that was him, he was very attentive but not hovering. He timed his rounds well. Overall, the atmosphere and vibe was very inviting and we would come back. The only drawback is the bathroom. One backed up urinal and one toilet for the size of that restaurant is not enough.

A disappointing way to spend NYE. First, the good: Our server, Doug, was friendly and personable, and was working so hard to keep all of his tables happy…an impossible task given the bad to follow. He greeted us promptly, and was as attentive as possible. The restaurant was voted “Best View 2025” which I imagine is spectacular if it were not heavy fog. Sadly, we won’t experience that view since we will not return. Now the bad: the kitchen was clearly in the weeds immediately at our 6:30 reservation. We were seated immediately, but it took 20 mins just for a few small pieces of bread, another 10 for the appetizer. We ordered the bisque, but it was sold out by 7pm so we had to switch to the clam chowder. The chowder was nice and thick with uniform size dices of potato and clams. We also or

This was our first time here. The view is incredible at night, looking over the lights of the city. Very nice for our anniversary. From the moment we sat down to leaving, the service was great. We started with the crab & artichoke dip. It was perfect. My wife had prime rib, which she said was about the best she's ever had. I ordered the artichoke & crab stuffed Mahi Mahi, which was very good. Both came with mashed potatoes, also very good. Our waiter told us up front that the kitchen was running behind, so our food took a little while to come. We decided to pass on dessert because we were full, when our waiter presented us with a dish of cream brulee, with Happy Anniversary written in chocolate on a plate. Very nice. We would definitely come back here for a special occasion.

We had a wonderful experience here for our Christmas dinner. While the price was a bit on the higher side, the quality of both the service and the food more than justified it. The staff was attentive, professional, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout the evening. The food was excellent — beautifully prepared and full of flavor. What truly made the night special, though, was the view overlooking downtown Tacoma. It was absolutely stunning and added a memorable touch to an already special evening. Overall, a fantastic dining experience and well worth it for a special occasion.

Great food and service. I would recommend making a reservation. It is a smaller restaurant. We had the Christmas three course meal. The crab stuffed mahi mahi and rockfeller oysters were are favorite but all the food was delicious. The cocktails are tasty and the service goes above and beyond. The wine list is great. So many options. We had savion blanc with our meal. It paired perfectly. We recommend trying this restaurant.
