The service was great. Very attentive and very friendly staff. The outdoor seating was lovely. The food was okay. Perhaps we just ordered the wrong items. The salmon tacos and fish and chips were good, but nothing special. The oyster stew was super bland and disappointing. Giving it 4 stars mostly based on the location and staff. read more

All you can eat fish & chips, you say? F-YEAH! My friend invited me with his family to All-You-Can-Eat-Fish-&-Chips here at Chinook's, which takes place every Monday. And there was no case of the Monday blues here! First of all, we sat in a dining area with awesome views of Salmon Bay and all the boats. The place itself is spacious, and I imagine this restaurant being a great venue for celebratory dinners and such with large groups. The room that we were in could even close off for private gatherings. But the Fish and Chips were awesome! The fish was cod, which came with double-dipped fries and a side of coleslaw. I was quite impressed with the quality of the fish they used for this AYCE special. Though the fish varied in sizes, the overall taste was flaky, light and flavorful. It also was yummy with the tartar sauce on the side. The coleslaw was mixed in a vinaigrette versus mayo, which I appreciated and liked better. If you're a fan of fish and chips and are a pig like me, then this is the spot to come on Mondays. AND, it's only 20 bucks! What a bargain! Service was fantastic. Our sever continually checked in with us, and when asked if we could just have more fish instead of the whole plate with fries, he was able to get us as much fish as we wanted. None of us waited long to get more fish or anything else we requested. Overall, great fish and chips deal in a nice setting! read more

This place is pretty amazing. Had this clam and mussels pasta with white sauce and it was incredible! Sad the ciopino isn't in season now but pasta and fish and chips in this place was incredible. Wife also loved the grilled fish and all sides were very solid. Will be back! Service was pretty friendly and had no issues. Ambiance was also nice and casual read more

Good place for raw oysters. Excellent service. Came here on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. Got the fish and chips with some oysters. The oysters were super fresh and the fish and chips were good too. The server was extreme attentive and friendship. Definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Honestly, I was expecting quite a bit more from Chinook's. Especially with the seafood being so fresh in Seattle! I ordered the fish and chips and asked them to split the fish between the salmon and the cod. Both were over cooked and dry. Which is a huge shame! I was really looking forward to enjoying some delicious seafood. Chinook's did not live up the hype. read more

Great food! Always FRESH seafood and fantastic wait staff. Get your here early for Happy Hour and to snag a window table.

We sat outside and with a beautiful view of the dock! Very relaxing and delicious food. The Boston style chowder was amazing. The Dungeness crab cakes with burre blanc were SO good. Not overly crunchy so you could still taste the crab and not just the breading. They bring you fresh focaccia bread for the table as well which was full of flavor. Vicky gave us great service and she was very attentive. Good food with a view- I highly recommend this place if you're visiting from out of town like we were! read more

Chinook's - Boston style clam chowder - Seafood Near Me - Seattle, Washington

We went there for a friend's birthday last month and was very concerned with the overall service and offensive comments made by the manager there. We went to the bar to grab a drink while we waited for a table. The bartender came to us and asked us why we wanted to drink. We placed an order and when our friend asked if he could see the drink menu and the bartender got upset and rolled her eyes while throwing the menu at him which we all were stunned. When she came back our friend asked her if he had done something to upset her and why she threw the menu at him to which she sarcastically replied "it must've slipped" with no apology. She no lander came back to us and had someone else give us our bill when we paid out to go to our table. We sat there and all of us just couldn't figure out what happened to which our friend finally asked the server if he could speak with a manager because we all felt that was not okay what happened and still couldn't understand why she did that. The manager arrived and when we all explained what happened she blamed it on the fact that the bartender is an immigrant and doesn't speak English very well. That comment made things worse because we are a party ourselves that are immigrants and felt that comment was not only offensive but justifying poor behavior. Especially when we're out to celebrate a birthday but couldn't believe the manager would say that. What does someone being an immigrant have to do with anything and to be honest it never crossed our minds. Needless to say we used to enjoy going there frequently but not if this is the type of management they have there. read more

Food for the price wasn't too bad, could've been better. there was lots of people that arrived after our party with larger numbers and ordered after us and still got theirs before us. so the service wasn't fantastic. environment was good tho. I'd come again but would hope for quicker Service. And for the price, didn't get very much of specific sea food ordered. read more

I've (we've) been going to Chinook's @ Fisherman's Terminal in Seattle since they've opened their doors many years ago. Having received exceptional service, quality food, and appreciation from the front of the house, their servers, management, and back of the house ~ their kitchen staff, too! However, just last Monday, November 6th, I treated my daughter and her son to our favorite Monday night tradition of their famous "all-you-can-eat" fish-n-chips dinner. We, as a family and a guest, party of 6 had just eaten there the previous week I spending a significant amount with my typical 25-30% gratuity. So on this night, after consuming a reorder, my daughter simply requested a small box to take (1) piece of cod, and literally 8 French fries. Samuel J our server instead said no and opted to throw the food away. We had just ordered desert, and I, my second Hefeweizen. Samuel discreetly went to his manager, Tim, then Tim proceeded to our table to inform us of their policy. This was totally unnecessary and embarrassing. They treated my daughter and I like we were 1st time guests, abusing their policy. As a result, I, we will never patronize Chinook's or any other affiliate of theirs. As we left Tim tried to approach me and discuss the matter further, of which, I had zero interest in communicating any further. Chinook's was a very consistent restaurant with appreciative staff who deserved their just reward. Hopefully others will enjoy their experiences there. read more

Chinook's - This was my dinner there the week before! With my party of 6! - Seafood Near Me - Seattle, Washington

How have I missed this spot before?! Beautiful location on the docks with plenty of parking! The takeaway quick food area on the right side closes shop early but the main dining room is open until 930 on weeknights. We came here for the fresh keta salmon they were serving up and we didn't leave disappointed! We had visitors from out of town and even the one who doesn't like seafood enjoyed her seafood pasta! Win! I will definitely be back here in the future. Service was stellar even though we came in right before last call in the kitchen. read more

Stopped in at Chinook's at Salmon Bay for the first time in a while. While the service and food quality were good, I was surprised to see I'd spent $50 on a single beer and two crab cakes. For the first time in my life, I looked at the menu after getting a bill to see what I had messed up. Although the server had said that they had a crab cake appetizer, they didn't. It seems they sold me a crab cake entree without the rest of the meal for $6 less. There were so many items I could have had for about half the price. And worst of all, for $6 more, I could have had steak and lobster.... It had been a while since I had gone there, and it will likely be a long time before I go back. read more

I am updating my review!! I have the pleasure of going back in the coming weeks to enjoy the food again. As I stated in my last review, the kitchen must have had a bad day or someone did not check my portion. I was able to speak to a manager and Chinooks really cares about what it's guest think. They really take mistakes to heart and do their best to improve their product and service. I am certain that my next visit will meet my expectations, as Anthony's team really does care about its returning customers. When a team member reaches out & takes the time to listen to what happened it retains customers. Customer service here is spot on. I will be returning to this establishment and do recommend guests come dine for fresh seafood. 5 star for rectifying, reaching out & caring about what happened. 5 star for being friendly & helpful. If you're in Magnolia or around the harbor, stop by Chinooks and try them out. Enjoy! -L read more

Man one huge place. Very busy on a Friday but we got in quickly with no rez. Extensive menu of large and small items. We stayed with the fresh salmon, all three choices we're excellent. We three shared a massive and delicious Caesar salad, and finished with the fresh peach desert options. We were satisfied! The place is noisy but we were able to sit in an area where it wasn't as loud. Ask for that. read more

Chinook's - Love the Fish & Chips plate at Chinooks. - Seafood Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I love Chinook's. Been coming here since I was 2 years old. Their menu, however, needs a little work. It has been (roughly) the same since I can remember. Fish & Chips are amazing. Cannot go wrong with this order. My friends have gotten seafood pasta, steak, and their main seafood salad. All were very good!! They just need to add some fresh menu items. Prettiest views though! And excellent cocktail specials. read more

Food was excellent, lots of great choices (I tried the Caddy Ganty!) for all of our eaters. Wait staff was excellent, even during this touch covid time. Bleu cheese dressing made me cry....go try it! read more

Had an amazing time! Views and ambiance was impeccable. Seafood and oysters were extremely fresh

They have a parking lot so you don't have to worry about parking. We got there for dinner time around 5:30ish, we had to wait for 10 minutes or so. The staff was really nice. Our waiter was Max, he was really nice and gave us good recommendations. They give warm bread which was good. We had the special which was the Alaska cod with potatoes and carrots. The cod had too much sour cream for our taste. The special came with clam chowder, we chose the Jersey chowder. It was okay, not our favorite but it was tasty. Our favorite was the Seared salmon which was sesame teriyaki with cabbage. It was just great with pinkish ginger which was delicious. That was our favorite dish which was an appetizer. read more

I've been to Chinook's twice! The dinner I had there was really good! This 3 star review is based solely on my lunch experience there! I ordered the halibut and chips and a Cesar Salad! For the money paid, the Caesar salad was way too soggy and subpar to say the least! The fish came out undercooked, with lousy presentation, I had to send it back to make it crispy! I started comparing it to spuds and realized for a tiny hole in a wall, they made it better! The taste here was good but everything that went with it brought the taste down! The coleslaw was horrible to say the least! Like I said the batter was average and they brought it soggy so it felt undercooked. Anyway, I guess this a good spot for dinner but lunch experience ruined it for me! On whole, love the location! Great place tucked away with amazing marina view! But food can be better! read more

This is a reasonable choice for fish and chips in Seattle. It's part of the Anthony's seafood restaurant chain with many locations mainly in Washington. I had the cod and chips for $12.49 and it was pretty good. It is a Panko crusted fish which was well executed although I prefer a beer batter crust. Reasonably good value. Check it out. read more

So you've come to Seattle to eat what? Seafood of course. We sat out the outside patio and had a nice view of the water. It was a little windy that day, but who cares- you're on the water. First don't bother getting the foo-foo drinks with the vodka added. Couldn't taste any difference between the regular lemonade and the alcohol drink. The Chardonnay and Sauv Blanc were a waste. My daughter didn't tell me that until we were in the car on the way home. So that amounts to $29 of our bill. Sigh............ The new England clam chowder was tasty. The BBQ prawns just okay. The Sockeye Plank - True Cod were okay. The Shrimp scampi had nothing but butter flavor, I'd pick something else. Over all it was an enjoyable dinner, the focaccia bread was one of the better servings. Service was okay, but I'm sure there are better seafood places around. read more

Found this place online and It didn't disappoint. Definitely recommend the fish here super fresh. LOVED the salmon fish tacos. Would come back for them. Beer was cold and bread was good. Come here for a good drink good food and an EXCELLENT view read more

Unfortunately they no longer serve brunch which is to bad. It was a great place to go for breakfast/brunch.

Got the last window table - no wait on a Friday at the restaurant arrived a bit after 6 pm. Oliver our server was on spot with our drinks and hot dinner rolls. Ordered the fried calamari and it was very well done. Next came my bowl of clam chowder very thick and good. Our salads were soon delivered! Crab & shrimp fresh and tasty. Tried the ahi salad - nice balanced dressing and tuna prep perfectly. Over all a lovely dinner and lots of attention from Oliver with drinks food and service. Yes we will be back for the awesome seafood and service. read more

My wife and I popped into Chinooks for an early dinner after a nice ride down town. It's right on the wharf, and just about every seat has a decent view. We started sharing BBQ garlic prawns - these are to die for. If you order one thing on the menu, order these. For the main course, Fish and chips. I'm british - Fish and Chips is my thing. Fish was excellent and just as expected. The chips - not so much. Soggy is the best description, and thats never a good thing. We capped the meal off with a Rhubarb slump. What;s a slump? ya got me, but it's basically a pot pie for dessert. This one was a little too watery for my taste, but it was good and I would order it again. read more

Arrived 1:45pm Sunday and needed to wait 15 minutes for a table for 2. Hmm, this must be a popular place. Waited another 10 minutes for someone to give us water and bread, then probably another 10 for taking our orders. After that, drinks and foods arrived quickly. My guess is that kitchen is not their bottleneck. Servers were very friendly. We ordered a champagne based drink. It was weaker than standard Mimosa. The other one was Rye Speakeasy, a Manhattan-like drink, and it was OK. Chowder (Boston) was excellent. Gumbo OK. The seafood platter is the standard batter-fried fare. Somehow, the batter was not crispy. It is said to be tempura batter, but they just felt like soggy bread. My guess is the oil temperature was not high enough. The ingredient -- fish, shrimp, veggie, onion ring, calamari -- were all good and satisfying. The cole slaw was crispy, cool, and refreshing. I completely don't mind coming back. Heard the weekend breakfast/brunch are amazing. read more

Wow this place is a good time! Was seated immediately and it was just about a full house, and with an amazing view! I ordered a cup of clam chowder and Brian was kind enough to bring me a taste of the Manhattan since I had never had it before. It wa amazing. Mixed it with the Boston to have the "new jersey" and it was out of this world! The salmon burger was wow! So fresh and not a patty but rather a nice piece of salmon. Fries were not the best things out there but good!! read more

Seafood was so fresh and tasty. The view is pretty great as well. Recommended by the locals as a favorite spot. Apart from the Salmon Being delicious, the sides were just as good or even better!!!! One of my favorites spots to eat as we explored Seattle. read more

The waitress was extremely sweet but the service was super slow. We sat down and she didn't take our order until 30 min after we sat. When we finally got the food the fish n chips were soggy and half the entree was a huge salad (didn't need to be that big). I'm sorry but I wouldn't come here again. read more

Chinooks is a fun, older style seafood restaurant on the Fisherman's terminal in interbay. The inside is decorated in this cool tile that evokes a fish market and there's a great view of the water and all of the boats coming and going. It's not super hip or anything but if you're looking for a more traditional style seafood restaurant to take your parents to this place is perfect. We shared the grilled halibut (it was a special) and the blackened salmon Caesar between two people and the portion sizes were perfect. I also started off with a few oysters which were delicious and tasted super fresh. The halibut tasted amazing but maybe could have done with a little bit less time on the grill. It came with asparagus which was delicious and perfectly done and some so so red potatoes. It was a bit pricy but it did taste very fresh so I suppose that's to be expected. The dressing on the salmon Caesar was good, nice and lemony, which I think goes great with the fish. The portion on the salmon was a little small though for the price. read more

We had a party of 5 with some food allergies and a vegan. Waitperson was very attentive, helpful, accommodating and shared his sense of humor!

You dine with a few of the Harbor with all of the fishing boats - wonderful!9 read more
