We came by after happy hour at Anthony's and listened to a live set of great music. The place was packed, but everyone is friendly and was willing to share their table with us. We had a great time and I strongly recommend coming by the Quarterdeck to chill and listen to live music. Can't believe it took me 20 years of living in Seattle to find this place. So, don't repeat my mistake.

Quarterdeck is what I like to call a "come for the vibes, stay for the drinks, eat... somewhere…read moreelse" kind of place. I stopped by while visiting Seattle and while the food situation was a bit chaotic (they had rotating menus because they were out of a few items), I ended up ordering a kimchi-inspired sandwich that I wanted to love...but it just didn't do it for me. Not inedible, maybe a 2/5, but I'd definitely try something else next time. My friend ordered what I think was the Garden Harvest Wrap (a staple on the menu), and that was more of a 3/5. Both dishes were served cold (intentionally), which I think made a difference, I could totally see them being much better if they were warm. Now let's talk about what is worth it: the mimosa flight. SO good. Like dangerously easy to sit there, sip through all of them, and forget any minor food disappointments. But honestly, the real star here is the ambiance. You're right on the water with the most effortless, breezy, coastal energy. Boats drifting by, sun hitting just right, people lingering over drinks--it's giving main character energy in the best way. I found myself wanting to stay way longer than planned and even doing some work while there. This is absolutely a spot I'd come back to, just with a strategy: eat before or after, and come here to sip, sit by the water, and take a little walk on the dock. 5 stars for the vibes alone

Copperleaf Restaurant & Bar is located inside the Cedarbrook Lodge…read more The dining area was inside the lodge, where you could dine in a quieter, more sophisticated, and intimate seating. The outside was nice too as you could enjoy the weather in a relaxing patio area with nature, manicured green grass, trees, with the sounds of the trickling fountain. They also had a bar area for that very casual, louder vibe to just talk and/or catch a game on the TV. We went with the dining area and Julissa was our server and she took very good care of us. She was courteous, attentive, and thoughtful. She recommended a few of her favorites when we asked her for suggestions. Charcoal Grilled Pork Chop: coconut-ginger braised collard greens, grilled spring onion, pork jus, wasabi butter (4/5). The Double cut portion was cooked to medium. It was tender, juicy, and the juices had a sweetness to it. The wasabi butter was good and not overpowering. I'd order this again. Superfood Salad: white bean hummus, quinoa, kale, carrots, blueberries, golden berries, cashews, sunflower & pumpkin seeds, avocado, herbs, feta, lemon-sesame vinaigrette (4/5). My wife really enjoyed her salad. I admit it was full of good ingredients but a tad bit heavy-handed on the dressing. Don't get me wrong the vinaigrette was delicious. Banana Bread Pudding (5/5) - Moist, crisp on the edges, and smothered in warm caramel sauce - this decadent bread pudding paired with vanilla ice cream was absolute perfection! We'd definitely come back the next time we're in the area. Support your local business.

Once you find a favorite, it could be gone in a few weeks, but that's always the fun of it! I have never been disappointed by any dish that's been served here. It's one of the best places you'll find in the Burien/Normandy Park/Des Moines area!

Husband loved primavera pasta. My steak au poivre was good - the real star for me was the mashed potato and gravy underneath!

The space is even bigger than the one in Renton, and they really outdid themselves with the new decor and ambiance. You can tell this is a place that truly cares about their customers and takes pride in the work they do. I'm so grateful they moved down here also, and I'm never disappointed by anything on the menu!

UPDATE: 3/24/26... As a Yelp Elite member for 6 years, I…read morepride myself in giving fair reviews, whether good or bad. And with the bad, I strive to be positive on the experience that was good before giving suggestions or letting the owner know what fell short. I'm never out to bash a business. Rather, as an owner, if you pride yourself in customer service, you will take what a sincere Yelp Elite reviewer has to say, step back and see how you can improve. I just read the comments another reviewer posted a few days ago and saw that they were berated as well. I had nothing to gain from giving the review I did and it's unfortunate that you're no longer going to be in business, but there were two other people with me that came to this consensus. With that, I will reply to the unfortunate remarks slammed at me, the reviewer. Let me preface by saying I asked for a pic with the owner before tea service started. If it was said that we had a wonderful and lovely time, it was not by me but one of my friends who, when asked how everything was, couldn't think of anything else to say. Also, I wasn't going to express all of this in front of the owner at the time because I had others with me. So, to rebel and ask me if my mother is still alive and did she teach me to behave like this? Well, all I can say is your reaponse as a business owner is extremely childish and unprofessional. I didn't make the food. I reviewed it and if that means it's not the best review, so be it. It pains me not to give a business owner a good review because that's not what we as Elite members strive for. That said, lashing out is not the answer. At least I have the maturity and diplomacy to put these comments in without getting into a mud fight like you chose to do. Review..... My two girlfriends and I came here for afternoon tea. Since I'm the Yelp reviewer, I asked them for their input and so it was a consensus of the three of us. Here's what went right. It was nice to have a carafe of water at our table, there were beautiful flowers and dyed water to match in the vase, the teacups and saucers were very pretty, the owner was extremely nice. Here's what we thought needed a second look. The sign in the store advertised cheese and fruit for the afternoon tea but it didn't appear. When we asked we were told it didn't come with it but we could get some if we wanted. Please revise the sign as people do notice. Suggest you have a selection of three sandwiches rather than two of each. One was a small croissant filled with egg salad and if we hadn't been told that we thought it might be chicken. The other was a cucumber sandwich which although it's nice to have thin slices of cucumber, these were razor thin. Sort of disappointing that there was so little on a beautiful piece of bread. They scones were nothing special. Perhaps have something inside whether it be cranberry, currant etc. The sweets consisted of a Mexican wedding cake which was rather dry and was there a detection of almond extract? The orange macaron, as beautiful as it was, lacked flavor of orange. I was expecting a nice burst of something but it just wasn't there. The fondant on the petit four was much too thick, and sweet. Whatever fashion the raspberry is used, keep a bit of that tart flavor to offset the sweetness from the fondant. The effort was there, things just felt short.

This time, we were a group of two adults and two children, and our bill was around $200, so we left a $20 tip. My only concern was the service. The restaurant was busy, but our empty plates were not cleared for quite a while. I eventually had to stack the dishes at the side of the table myself before another server noticed and helped us. Overall, the food is excellent and the atmosphere is great. I just wish the service were a little more attentive. Also, it often seems like we are told there are no available tables and have to wait, even when there appear to be empty tables -- this time, there were several available around noon. I've been a customer for many years and will continue to come back. I just hope the service can improve.

I would love to give this restaurant five stars, but we have been here three times and the table…read moreservice has not been the best. For our last venture here, we told our server we needed a little more time to review the menu and decide if we would want to try something different. She did not return for a little over ten minutes. In the mean time, I was getting a little bothered and saw she was servicing her other two tables near us many times, having conversations with another server, and just not coming back to see if we were ready to order. I decided to pass the workstation and ask her to take out order, but then hearing their conversation about social life and not work, that upset me. As I was ready to collect my family and walk out l, she returned to take our order. My wife gave her grace and we sat back down. The food here is delicious! I recommend the ravioli or the udon carbonara. Both are elegant dishes and have the best mixture of truffle flavor. These are our favorites. The restaurant is very nice, mall front design. The host and hostess are phenomenal! When you enter, not only are they very inviting and making you feel at home, they also offer everyone in the family champagne and for the young ones, sparkling juice. Who I assume is the manager, she is all over the place and in my mind, she works harder than she should. She was expediting, greeting, cleaning, refilling utensils, replacing chopsticks on the table, etc. I feel her team should stop talking about life at work and do a better job at performing their roles in this business. Because of the table service disappointment three times, I think we will take a pause and not return for a while. Spending $300 on average here, we love to eat, I would expect a certain level of service.

I haven't been here in years and I wish hadn't gone today. From the moment we sat down until the…read moremoment we left, the experience was a solid 1-star. We sat down to sticky booths that looked like they hadn't been dusted or cleaned in years. I didn't want to lean back and let my hair touch it. That kind of a booth. Next, we ordered coffee. The server said it comes with half and half and as she was about to walk away, I remembered my friend liked milk so I said, "oh don't you prefer whole milk." The server said they serve half and half with coffee and they don't have whole milk just 2% and if we we wanted anything else she could pour water in it. Normally this banter would be fine. This wasn't banter. She was annoyed. We stuck with the half and half. We looked at the menus that were COATED with sticky stuff all over the plastic and falling apart. It looked like a studen'ts notebook after a full year in grade school. We ordered a strawberry lemonade. Normally, my daughter will drink anything. It tasted like chemicals. Since two of us ordered two different types of benedict, the server came with sharper knives. She then WIPED THEM CLEAN with a towel hanging from her pocket. 20 min. later we got our order. Well 2 of us did. Mine was the wrong item so had to send back and they had to make me the correct one. No apologies from our server. We then had to ask for a third place setting. The server got it and when my daughter was using the benedict knife, the server took it FROM HER HANDS and gave it to our friend since she was eating french toast. The food was not good. The french toast tasted like dry bread coated in eggs. In other words, it hadn't soaked up any of the batter. My benedict's hollanaise sauce was in fact, some weird cheez-it mixture... it was orange and congealed. Let me add that it was a Monday at 9:30AM. It was NOT busy. Also word of warning, DO NOT use the restrooms. Just nopity nope nope nope.

First off, the staff were very nice and friendly, one very redeeming trait. This is a small restaurant in a hotel. There IS NO PARKING unless you pay the hotel $25 for the day. The hours are severely limited to 4 hours in the morning for breakfast and 4 hours in the evening for dinner. The menu is also severely limited and amazingly overpriced. I had the regular burger with fries. It was $20. The burger came unseasoned and bland on a sesame seed bun. The lettuce, tomatoes and onion were cool and seemed fresh. The fries came out hot but seemed almost stale with hardly any crisp. They were also bland with no seasonings or salt. The Mrs had the potstickers which they called dumplings. These were tastier than the bland burger, but again, these prices.... Honestly, you can get a burger, fries and a coke at McDonald's that tastes better and cost way less than the $25 I spent on my burger here. (The single glass of coke was $5) This combined with the hotel review has taught me to stay outside of the city from now on where prices and gouging doesn't hit so hard.

Unfortunately people kept cutting to get in saying they got a text it was their turn but others in line were waiting for the same thing. The staff allowed this and did nothing to organize the lines... we waited for so long that the system took us off our spot by the time we got to the front of the line. Staff let us in anyway but it was frustrating to see so many people allowed to cut us. Then, it was quite crowded so we took a bit to find a seat. Unfortunately (again), the seats were torn and obviously worn out --not in the best state that's for sure. The food was not good and there were flies on the items that were left out so I stuck with the soup only. The one redeeming perk is they had full sized soda cans (I love Diet Coke). Tbh I'd rather just sit at the gate than come here again.
