★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Ansar Mulla · Feb 2026

We tried several dishes, and while the presentation looked appealing, the overall experience landed somewhere in the middle. Some items were decent, but nothing really stood out or justified the price point. The tacos were okay but lacked depth of flavor, and the accompaniments felt fairly standard. The seafood dishes looked promising, but the execution was inconsistent—some bites were enjoyable while others felt underseasoned or overly rich. The beet and burrata salad was probably the highlight, though even that didn’t feel memorable. Service was acceptable, not bad, but not particularly warm or attentive either. Drinks were refreshing but fairly basic. Overall, it’s not a bad place, but it didn’t quite deliver on flavor or value. I might consider giving it another try, but it wouldn’t

★★★★☆ 4.0 Arash Soltani · Jan 2026

Food was good, though there’s room for improvement. We tried the shepherd’s pie; it was tasty but quite different from other versions I’ve had. The shrimp Alfredo was also good, but not standout. The server was very friendly and attentive, and the restaurant has a great vibe. Prices are reasonable for the portion sizes. If you’re looking for a place with a nice view and seating suitable for any party size, this is a solid option.

★★★★★ 5.0 ALW · Jan 2026

Great location with amazing views! We had Sunday brunch and we walked right in and was seated right away. Cocktails were nothing special but would love to come back and try more. Food was pretty good, but I'm extremely disappointed in the popular fish and chips. The fish was pathetic! Three little nugget pieces, I thought it was a joke at first. Shrimp and grits was amazing! Service was good. I appreciated the open kitchen concept, that tells me that everything should be clean because customers can see it. Overall, I'd go back for dinner.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lisa Paige · Jan 2026

I came in with my husband and my nephew. The food here is delicious, we each ordered different items, my husband had the fish and chips, my nephew said that the salmon was the best he had ever eaten, and I had the french dip and it was perfect! The service was great and atmosphere is very nice, from the view to the light colors of the bar area. Everyone was so kind to us. We will be back soon!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Clint Harding · Oct 2025

Wildfin in one of several restaurants in the Point Defiance waterfront area. The area is very nice and offers some nice restaurants with a good view of the water. The decor and presentation inside of the restaurant is appealing. The oysters were a good choice to start, as well as the bread service. We tried the filet mignon, black cod and the burger. The steak was presented well and tender, it was slightly undercooked but still very good. The black cod was impressive and very tasty. The burger was tasty but unfortunately well undercooked, it was ordered medium-well and arrived medium rare. We did not send it back but this was our only issue with our dining experience. Our server was friendly and attentive. Outside of the undercooking, a nice choice in dining.
