First time I've eaten here. Very nice. Dining room has a wonderful view of the marina and the sound. Our waitress, Tina, was friendly and did a great job. My friend and I hadn't seen each other for 6 years and we were not rushed at all. We were allowed to sit and visit for a long time. We both had the clam chowder and crab and shrimp melt. The sandwich was excellent, a 10. The chowder was too thin for my taste, but good, a 7. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

We have been to this place 3 different times on a Friday night. The wait staff is very friendly. I have ordered their nachos all 3 times. They have only been able to get these nachos out to me 1 time hot and with the correct toppings. We will not be going back due to the inconsistency of their cooks. Also we are always given dirty dishes to eat with, or off of, and to drink out of. Gross. read more

We returned to Edmonds for a week after moving away three years ago. Went to Arnies with friends. Dinner at 5:00 meant we could have their 4:00-6:00 special: starter, entree and dessert for under $30.00. I had clam chowder, my wife had the seafood bisque (just ask to sub it for the chowder), our friends had the Caesar salad and the bay shrimp cocktail. All were excellent. I had the fish and chips, my wife had salmon, and our friends also had the salmon. Everything cooked well and yummy. My wife had chocolate mousse and the rest of us had their fresh- made key lime pie. The mousse was good but the key lime pie was stellar. Wine prices were very reasonable and the mixed drinks were great. We have never had a bad meal at Arnies. And their service is excellent. read more

Food was good with nice view. Service was ok, didn't like that the sever tossed the napkin to the side when she was taking the plates and silverware. She should have just taken them with the dishes. read more

I had not been here in years. The decor was the same as it was years ago old and dingy. The hostess was rude that was the start. The food was mediocre at best, there was no presentation what so ever. It appeared that there was only one waiter for the entire restaurant, when he finally got around with the dressing to the bake potato I ordered I was pretty much done with the rest of my dinner not that a huge amount of time had past there really wasn't that much food to begin with. We had well ordered desert a chocolate whisky cake. One bite and I was disgusted. I don't know how you can screw up a chocolate cake but it was dry very dry the whip cream was sour. Any way to the management, you need to revamp the decor, get a new chef and hire people who actually want to work. When you are charging $40 an entree people expect just a tad more than mediocre. read more

The host who seated us was very nice. We were seated by a window so we had a nice view of the ferry and the Marina. The waitress was very helpful. one person in our party needed to be able to calculate carbs due to being Type 1 diabetic. So seeing the type and size of bread used for the shrimp and crab melt was helpful. Many thanks for that. The spacing of the tables was nice. We were not quashed in as we are in other places at times. We arrived at noon. Our food was very good. I enjoyed my oysters with the cornmeal batter. The green beans were excellent. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. The rice pilaf was nice as well. We enjoyed the easy atmosphere before heading to UW Medical. We also enjoyed a stroll in the beach area before lunch. We had driven and ridden ferry so it was a nice area to stretch our legs. Some GPS info is incorrect re where to turn into parking area. Told us to turn into the "Exit Only" driveway rather than " Enter" driveway. it's a really good place, simple menu so they are good at what they do. plus we glanced at kitchen on way in and out and all looked clean, etc. One person in our group of 3 is a certified chef and he was pleased. Restrooms, were clean also. Lobby and dining area also clean, windows nice and spiffy. read more

Always great service and seafood of all types. I frequent the Mukilteo location often but sometimes meet friends from the Olympic Peninsula in Edmonds. It is close by the ferry so easy access for those who walk on from Kingston. Beautiful view of the sound as well. read more

Right on the water! What a lovely place. Wonderful staff. You do have to climb a few steps to get inside. Elevator is to the left for those that need it. Parking is sparse but there are a few dedicated spots. I did reserve a table through Yelp but upon arrival I was quick to be seated and felt like I could have gone without it. Pricing was decent but I did order the steak and prawns and mash potatoes. I did not expect the potatoes to come like a small fried puck. Still tasty just different take on mash potatoes. The steak was cooked to order but sliced for you in what seemed like 3oz portions. The food was good and the wine was ok. Not a bad place for the evening. With the parking situation and the stairs, along with the portion size 4-out-of5 stars. I do recommend on a cear day for a nice view, wine and good conversation. read more

Love Arnies for brunch! $25 for a huge brunch with a mimosa! Best view in town. Friendly staff.

My meetup friends and I had a great time this evening. Thank you Allison for accomodating our table of six that became eight. Food and service were excellent. Thanks again. Julie S. read more

Best seafood, outstanding view and superb service. It doesn't get much better than this.

This was our first time at Arnies. Prices were reasonable and the food was good. Our go to was a different seafood place, but my husband is more of a steak guy. Arnies had a nice selection of both. read more

Food, service and ambiance were excellent. Could have a normal conversation at our table without having to talk loudly. Our waitress checked on our table a number of times while eating to determine if everything was okay and if we needed anything else. read more

When here for brunch for our 18th anniversary I'm going to sit out on the deck in the shade the 180° view of the water. I would say the prices are about average and what I would expect for a brunch down on the waterfront somewhere from 19 to about $25 per person. Includes a fruit tray with yogurt dip sneaky sticky buns for each person mimoso orange juice or champagne of a Wii substitute coffee in an entrée. We had such a nice waitress she gave us a free dessert when we told her it was our anniversary. I got the French toast which was fabulous with the cinnamon in that bag bacon potatoes read more

We go to Arnies fairly often but we had an exceptionally nice time our last visit. It was a bit busy due to the holiday season. Everybody was having a nice time and enjoying their food. What made our visit so delightful was Elizabet, who was just so helpful when we asked for recommendations and just was so pleasant. You go out to eat to enjoy yourself and staff like Elizabet are what makes these experiences so special. Thank you to all the hard-working staff. We really enjoyed our visit. read more

Updating my review for visiting for dinner on 9/1. My husband and I came here for dinner. There were several issues with poor service throughout the experience with the worst finding a 2" long metal wire in my entree after putting it in my mouth. We reported the finding, along with the fact that the first entree I had was sent back due to a long fish bone, to the manager, Sarah. I stated we weren't paying for any of our meal. I then ran to the restroom to throw up. Sarah apologized and gave us her business card after I asked a host for her name and contact information. This was reported to the Snohomish County Health Department. They informed me they called the restaurant and spoke to the management about the incident. Beyond this, the waitress was rude. She didn't clear plates. We had to wave down another server for a spoon and fish fork. Drinks weren't refilled. The bread was served with a reused napkin that was covered in crumbs. Mistakes are made; no one is perfect. However, having a metal wire in someone's food could have caused a severe accident. We will never visit Arnie's again. read more

We had a late lunch at Arnie's on a Tuesday afternoon. This time the food was really good and we didn't wait forever. Our server was a bit quiet and shy but she took good care of us. All four of us ordered from the lunch menu. I had a fish (cod) taco and a small salad. The fish taco was excellent and much larger than I anticipated. It was great. Mr and his mom both ordered a 1/2 crab sandwich and small chowder. It looked good. It came with fries which were not listed on the menu. The fries were really good though! A third person in our party ordered the fried oysters and a cup of chowder. He cleaned his plate and enjoyed every bite. We will be back! read more

Went to Arnies today for brunch with some friends after church. Celebrating Palm Sunday. We had a very nice time. Made reservations for 6 and were seated right away with a great view of the marina. Brunch consists of mimosa, champagne or orange juice, fruit plate, sticky bun...all included free in your meal order. The food was as really good and our waiter was superb. Forgot to take photos. ( I had the turkey club sandwich on Ciabatta bread read more

I LOVE ARNIES. I've been coming here since I was a kid, with my grandparents who lived here in Edmonds. Not once have I been disappointed by their food. Brunch is my favorite, there's terrific food. Eggs Benedict is great, and I LOVE the crab omelette. The view is wonderful, no matter what time of year. Sunny or stormy, it's always nice to look out over the sound. I'll also say, the staff has always been so cool and kind. I can't recommend this place enough! Much better than the other A-named seafood place on the water ;) read more

Arnies has been serving good food and good ambiance. It is a great location for a dining with a view. Reservations are recommended. Menu is typical northwest fair of salmon and seafood dishes. Price is reasonable. Service is fast and efficient, but I find it a little bit too calculated less warmth could have been a bit more friendlier I guess.. a percentage of service fee is tacked in your bill which you need to check in your receipt and calculate your desired tip for your server. read more

Great food, great service, and a fabulous view. Arnies has been a go-to restaurant for my friends and I for many years.

Arnie's is our favorite restaurant for birthdays, special events, and to take family members when visiting Washington. The location is perfect - right on the waterfront with a great view of the marina and ferries. Their food is delicious, cocktails are yummy, and they have the best crab legs in the area. For dessert, our favorite is the key lime pie. Last but not least, their staff is exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating (we love Vanessa!!). read more

Food was amazing, stelar service, romantic views. A date spot for sure. It will not disappoint.

The service here is top notch ( summer 2023). Today went for brunch with a friend for the first time. Allison was our server; she was amazing and made the experience special. We had a great table with a beautiful view. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and answered questions comfortably and with flare! I forgot to take photos-my friend had the prime rib hash; I had the classic eggs Benedict. You get a beautiful fruit plate, a sticky bun, and a choice of three beverages included with your meal ( at the brunch service). I had no idea ...we will be going back. It was such a good experience. Good food, good value, lovely view, rock-star service!! Well done, Arnies in Edmonds! read more

Two star food, two star service, 10-star view. I've been to Arnie's several times over the past decade for work-related functions, but this last trip was my first time as a regular paying customer, not as a guest of the boss. And it's always the same thing. Arnie's view of Puget Sound and the Olympic mountains is a spectacular one, and the scenery diverts your attention from the slightly raggedy and threadbare appearance that time has wreaked upon its interior. The menu is lengthy, and Arnie's fare is at least one step up from hospital fare. If you're used to waiting an hour or so for a doctor, I mean, for a waiter to show up, then you'll feel right at home here. But hey, no complaints on the wait time, since looking out the window is still better than watching TV. Is Arnie's the Asperger's lovechild of Ivar's and Ida Culver's? Perhaps, but certainly, anyone with a taste for deep-fried seafood and a penchant for staring thoughtlessly for seemingly endless, uninterrupted periods of time (out across water) is really going to like it here. I'll be back, too, because I do love me some Arnie's. read more

We loved the prime rib, though overcooked a little in some parts, and the Thai green curry chicken. Service was exceptional on the outdoor deck. Overall, a lovely evening! read more

Do not eat here. Dinner salad was beautiful, fresh, delicious. Waitress wonderful. Baked cod (?)...that's how awful it tasted and it ruined my rice which was overcooked. So they gave me a piece of grilled salmon (?). Not edible. I had the fish plain so whatever they put on it for everyone else must mask this horrible flavor. After this the waitress did not come back. I don't eat deep fried foods so that is not an option for me. Total rip off for $38.00. Something wrong with this place. I will not go again. Does the chef have taste buds or does he/she not taste the food? Don't order the cream pie for dessert...totally flavorless...(the chocolate cake looked fabulous). Not at all the Arnies I remember. read more

Arnie's in Mukilteo was out favorite but now that it's been sold, we have to go to Edmonds. Edmonds location is farther away from our home and doesn't have the view Mukilteo location had but the menu is the same. Good salmon dinner but recent Halibut combo not as good due to intense ginger flavoring which over powers the Halibut flavor. They should go back to the Halibut filets they used to offer. Service a little slow for 5:15, especially since half the tables were empty. read more

Came here with my family before I move across the country, and I can barely put into words how amazing everything was. Good food, yes, obviously (Ahi Poke is a must have" but our server Alison went above and beyond to give us all a fantastic experience, even going so far as to steal the Sriracha from the kitchen for my salmon teriyaki bowl and I'm still at my table as I write this. Ask for her, you won't be sorry! read more

Good service - but the food was bland. For the price you pay it is not worth it. The view is generally limited If you do not get a window table. We requested one well ahead of time and they could still not fulfill it even though they had empty window tables. My husband had hair in his salmon and the prime rib was over cooked. Unfortunately I do not think we will be back, or we will spend the money to get a consistent meal at Anthony's next door. read more

Let me start from the beginning at the top of list... I ordered calamari, clam chowder, and mussels as appetizers for me and my family. I had a "peach cooler" for my beverage and the "Arnie's Grill" for my main entree, which consisted of salmon, clams, scallops, and shrimp. The bread (which is only available upon request) was also delicious. The food was freshly prepared and well-seasoned. The ambiance was pretty relaxed. The key lime pie was super duper dynamite. The cobbler was also off the chain. The tiramisu was pretty decent as well. The portions for the dessert are rather large with the exception of the key lime pie (small slice). read more

I love this chain of seafood restaurants, but of all their locations this is by far my favorite. I love that it sits above the docks of the Edmonds marina and you can watch the ferries coming in and going out on a nice day. There is also always plentiful parking in their private parking lot. Service here has been wonderful the past 10+ times I've been here and I always look forward to a meal here. My favorite meal here is probably brunch - how can one argue with a mimosa or bloody mary with a seafood eggs benedict, potatoes and fresh fruit and yogurt?! I've also enjoyed the smoked salmon scramble, seafood omelette, as well as the seafood crepes. All are delicious and made with the best ingredients the NW has to offer. There is seating in the main dining room, bar area, and then lounge extension of the bar but there is really no bad seat in the house. The large windows in the front room really allow plenty of light to brighten your day from any location. That is one of the things I love about this spot. While it is an older building it still manages to feel classy and inviting. read more

This is a 3.5 star review, but rounded up to 4 because most elements were good. Though, for a more upscale type restaurant, I was hoping the service would be better. The restaurant is massive inside, with lovely views overlooking the water. My friend and I were seated at a huge 6 person table which was a bit awkward, but we survived! We ordered some drinks which arrived quickly before giving our food order. We opted for the brussel sprouts with bacon to start - OH WOW... order these if you go here, they were amazing!! I had the scallops, which came with a poached pear and risotto... the pear was a great addition, the risotto was a bit blah. My friend had the halibut cheeks and really enjoyed them. We decided to share a slice of coconut pie which was huge. My friend enjoyed it, I felt it was super sweet, but that's a personal preference. I think the service was lacking, as our server seemed totally overwhelmed, barely checked on us, and when he did, made us feel rushed, which is a pity given that this place isn't exactly cheap on the wallet. But the food was good. There is parking in the central lot right outside. read more

My friend and I had a wonderful Sunday brunch at Arnie's last weekend! The price was very reasonable, quite a bit less than I expected. Our entrees came with a fruit plate for the table, a delicious cinnamon bun, and a mimosa. I had the ahi tacos, which were very tasty and I would definitely order them again. My friend got the crab & shrimp melt, and she loved it. We were seated outside on the deck in wonderful weather, enjoying the lovely view of the harbor and the ferry. I will be back! read more

Great seafood - beautiful views of the water and pleasant atmosphere!- loved it!!!!!!

Terrible experience today - My waitress just left and didn't tell me, turn me over or anything- Very poor- will not be back- Worst service ever read more

Very disappointing. Food was mediocre at best. service was excellent. However the real issue was, the company charges a 4.5% service fee and as stated on the receipt, 100% of that fee goes to the company, not the servicing staff or any other help. The menu prices are inline with a lot of other restaurants , $39 for salmon and over $40 for any type of beef. So when you add the 10% sales tax, the 4.5% service fee and then 20% for tip to serving staff, you end up paying 34.5% to your total bill. This is unconscionable and I will never go to Arnies again and will let everyone know not to frequent this restaurant. read more

Such a nice restaurant and excellent location to celebrate special occasions, which is why I was invited there...Excellent food and nice spacious interiors..unfortunately a damper was put on our experience due to an unhappy server who wanted to show us they weren't happy with our table which we all talked about later and couldn't figure out what the problem was because their behavior was displayed in a passive aggressive manner...snide comments and disapproving facial expressions..I hope they see this and realize how obvious their behavior was..not what a patron and lover of this restaurant wants to experience...especially when no one was behaving badly..just laughing and having a good time..Wish this server would have let us know what we could have done to reduce their stress...and also wish restaurants would help staff and teach them how to handle stressful situations..restaurant works can be pretty stressful. read more
