mccormick & schmick's seafood restaurant

overpriced and overrated. sat in the bar for a bit before our reservation and were treated to some of the most rude, inattentive, and insulting bartenders i've ever been around. got to our table, server was very friendly and on the ball. food was below average. asparagus wasn't trimmed properly so had to cut off the woody ends myself.steakwas overcooked and not a very good cut for the price. for the $230 spent i've actually had better meals at the cheap chain restaurants.

very average food at very above average costs.. a very disappointing visit to be sure. mysteakwas overdone, dry, and warm but not hot. my friends seafood was overcooked as well and the salads we had looked great but were oddly tasteless. if the dinner had been 1/3 the cost i would be more lenient and perhaps go to 3 stars but as it is i gave them 2 with 1 being for the adequate service and decent atmosphere.

relaxing & delicious. our visit to the cincinnati ohio mccormick & schmick this weekend was terrific! both my husband'ssteakand his asparagus were cooked to perfection! my meal was outstanding!! most importantly, our waiter allowed us plenty of time to enjoy our meal.

my husband and i dined here, last week and while the service was excellent the food was average and with a bill of $150 plus tip for 2 i expected much better. we started with a chop salad and mixed green salad. the chopped salad was good the mixed greens looked wilted and very tasteless despite the dressing. we both ordered filet which was cooked to perfection however it came with broccollini and that was it, we, had ordered a potato dish to share but my suggestion would be don't serve yoursteakon huge plates, when presented thesteaklooked so lost and unappealing despite the fact that it tasted superb. it was a real downer, even if they decoration with some herbs or small side salad leaves, but a huge plate, smallsteakand 2 pieces of broccollini looked sad! !!. we shared creme brule which was really, really good just the perfect size to share. for me it was good but not great, a 6 out of 10 but a 10 out 10 for mindy our server

terrible service. oyster appetizer came without crackers or tabasco which i had requested. bottle of wine sat on the table for 20 minutes unopened while the waiter disappeared. m&s was out of the cut ofsteaki ordered but didn't offer the "bone-in" cut at the same price until i approached the manager. when thesteakdid arrive it was bloody rare, not what i ordered. i didn't eat my main course when they finally returned with the burnt carcass 10 minutes after the rest of my table had finished their dinners. seafood selection is very unimpressive, salmon, talapia, tuna, shrimp. you can find that anywhere.

sucks!!!! thesteakwas worse than sizzler and they served us rotten oyster and we threw up all night. the manager did nothing!!! run!!!!

6/10. the location is ideal - right in the heart of cincinnati at fountain square. the restaurant looks nice as it has a dark wood and green decor - sort of a classy new england look.

the service was good. our waiter was knowledgeable and made recommendations.

for appetizer, we got an order of the spicy tuna sushi rolls and the portobello fries. the sushi was okay - i've had better at standard asian restaurants. the portobello fries were delicious. they were slices of portobello mushrooms tempura fried and served with a horseradish-mustard dip. as a side note, i on my second bite i burnt my tongue pretty bad, which put a damper on the rest of the meal, but that was my own fault.

for my entree i got the "casino style" swordfish. it was a swordfishsteakstuffed with bacon and crab on a bed of wilted spinach. i thought the tastes didn't blend well. the swordfish was done fine, but the sauce was a thin butter/grease concoction that added nothing to the plate. the dish tasted bland and uninspired.

my girlfriend got the ahi tuna, which essentially was just seared tuna slices. you can't really go wrong with raw tuna, and while i wasn't terribly fond of the seasoning they used in the sear, it was okay. the california rolls that came with it were the worst i've ever had.

for dessert we got the mocha creme brulee, which was tasty. i'll have to also give them points on the fresh squeezed lemonade and arnold palmer's we got.

overall, pretty good but nothing spectacular. the prices were a bit steep for the food offered, but not outrageous.
