My cherished chef friend and his daughter, were celebrating her graduation from college. They live in the Renton area, so I invited them for a celebratory dinner. First, we chose to eat outside. Lovely waterfront views. Warm summer night, cool breezes and a waterfront view. This inspires seafood, of course. Helpful staff and a view table. We started out with their bread service, little neck clams and calamari. This is a celebration dinner, so no expense spared. Lovely sweet little neck clams. Crispy, yet not overdone calamari. The clam shallot/ butter sauce complemented the sweetness of the clams. Calamari was nicely cooked, with a Remoulade | Lemon sauce. Next, We all had the wedge salad, with Bacon Bits | Smoked Blue Cheese Crumble | Tomato | Crouton out of nostalgia. It was really good, with all of the accompanying ingredients. More of a main dish salad, with the hearty ingredients. For a smaller appetite, you could have all of these and be full . We all as a group decided to get the variety meats of the Butcher's Block. This had 11oz Prime New York | 14oz Rib Eye | 8oz Coulotte Marrow Bone | 2 Sides | 4 Butters. Such a great combination. The prime rib was soft and tender. The rib eye stole the show, with its tenderness and flavor. The marrow was intense and incredibly flavorful. We had potato puree and asparagus as sides. Both flavorful and not over sauced. I'm more inclined to go with potato puree, as it is more difficult to accomplish. We also ordered the bread service. Putting marrow, rib eye and the butters that came with it; Blue Cheese Butter | Steak Butter | Peppercorn Butter | Chimichurri Butter | Maitre De Butter | Black Garlic Butter on bread, was one of my favorite bites. I'm not a blue cheese fan, but the other butters accentuated the meat very well. I think the butters raised the deliciousness of the meat, by adding moisture and spice. The service was somewhat attentive, they checked in with us only once. My chef friend grumbled about wanting better quality meat, more attentive service and the high prices for our food and service. We chose the Paris Brûlée, dessert with Mango Crème Brulee | Mango Compote White Chocolate Raspberry Soil | Raspberry Whip | Raspberry Gel. This was a refreshing and light end to dinner, as we were full. Unfortunately, service was absent. Limited to just dropping off food and not checking in. We wanted to order more food, however no one was available to help us. For our dinner, we spent about 700.00 for three people. For the price, the food and service were lacking in quality. Lovely view. Food and service were mediocre. Definitely disappointed. read more

The Waters Table was so good I came twice in a row while on vacation one for lunch and brunch for the second. I had a bottomless mimosas you can switch up the flavor every time, my server also kept them coming which I appreciated We sat outside to enjoy the bay view it was gloomy but very peaceful read more

I arrived in Renton Super late (eastern time 11:00pm) and was super hungry. We stayed at the Hyatt and I was happy to see that this restaurant was available on site. I showered and went downstairs but unfortunately you had to have a reservation. I took the first available which was 9:30pm (pacific standard) and was blown away by the amazing view of Lake Renton! There was some event going on so I had a good time people watching and devouring my salmon which was very tasty! read more

Beautiful views, amazing staff but risotto was a little too salty for my taste. I will definitely visit again and looking forward to trying other dishes soon. read more

I went with my boyfriend to try this restaurant since we have heard great reviews. Unfortunately when we went it, our expectations were set high and were not met. Our server did not great us with a welcoming smile. she had taken awhile to get us our drinks and also come back to even just take our orders after. After getting our food, my boyfriend and i weren't big fans of the food as much but that's more of a personal preference. Main issue was the service and not feeling like i wanted to be there. We kept waiting and looking for our server to only find them behind the bar. Other customers had gotten their bills before us even tho we were there way before them within the day. you can tell we were done with everything since we kept trying to search for her. she then finally came around to us about 20 mins AFTER. we don't plan on ever coming back unfortunately to try it even though i really wanted to dry the breakfast and dinner options. read more

Made reservations at Water's Table in Father's Day and had a wonderful experience. Beautiful property, gorgeous views of the lake, love the natural lighting, great service (Devina was so friendly and funny- she's awesome!!), and everyone enjoyed their food. The pancakes were yummy and so was the mushroom omelette and mushroom tacos. Not sure why we all ordered mushroom on this day but everything enjoyed their meals. read more

Everything from start to finish was perfection, personified. It was the most enjoyable experience, served the best in food choices - the burger, egg dishes and coffee were some of the best and we appreciated such quality ingredients. To top it off, the view was amazing, but what set this experience apart was the wonderful service exhibited by Devena. She was engaging, friendly, courteous, efficient, and knowledgeable about the food choices in this amazing restaurant. She checked in with us frequently and any/all requests were handled with aplomb. She needs to be recognized for providing world class service. We will definitely return and continue to enjoy this wonderful restaurant with a wide selection of food items and the amazing Lake Washington view. read more

Located in Hyatt Regency you'll find Waters Table. Just about every seat in the restaurant offers a view of Lake Washington. The wait staff and bartenders are friendly and do a great job. Lately Stephanie has been my server. She is a delightful young lady and very good at her role. The menu is on point for American food dining. They have a really good burger for $27. Yummy Fish and Chips. I also like their Gem Salad with Grilled Salmon added. The burger is so large it would be shareable for the ladies. I can never eat the entire burger and fries. Breakfast: In my opinion this is one of the best hotel breakfasts I've enjoyed. The menu is expansive and changes frequently. It's chef style dining - not your average hotel breakfast and NO buffets. The weekend brunch menu is nice too. My favorite breakfast is the Dungeness Crab Eggs Benedict. read more

Great spot for a summer day, thanks to its beautiful lakefront view. Sitting outside and enjoying the scenic waterfront made for a really pleasant experience. The food itself was ok. However, the service was great--our waiter was friendly and attentive, which added to the overall positive experience. If you're looking for a restaurant with a great atmosphere and a stunning view, this is definitely a solid choice. Would recommend for a relaxed dining experience by the water! read more

This is our second time at Water's Table. I don't know if it will turn into a go-to spot for the double date we had for a second time with our friends, as they seemed less happy than we were - although everyone was happy with the view - it's amazing to look out at the crystal water, with the big jets in production right next to, and small aircraft and yachts moving in and around. We sat on the patio, which they tell me is usually open unless there is very bad weather. They have a heater, but it IS open to the elements so be it known that it might be windy or you might have a pigeon staring at you. We commented that it would be nice if the tables were all arranged so that every guest could view the water better - we had to sit with our backs to it. Food. Mine was amazing. I got the croque madame. I had a croque monsieur in France and never forgot it, so I decided to try its counterpart. It was delicious. Cheese and egg-soaked bread goodness with ham. And actually, I almost liked the greens even better - whatever they use for their dressing is spectacular, just the right amount of vinegar and sugar. Husband got the combo breakfast meal thingee (farmer's? IDK) and enjoyed it; he said the potatoes were awesome. Since it was St. Patrick's I also got an Irish Death beer which came with a perfect pour. Our friends tried the French Toast and Chicken (a take on waffles and chicken) and I noticed their plates were clean. Service was a little slow but perfectly polite and accomodating. With a view like that, on a beautiful sunny day in Western WA, it's hard to care if your order takes a bit longer than usual - especially when everyone is all smiles and the food is fantastic. read more

We had THE BEST time at the Water's Table with Nancy as our waitress. She did such a great job. The environment and food was wonderful and her service just brought it all together for us. We really appreciated her kind, casual conversation and it was overall an awesome experience. Thank you, Nancy! read more

Good waterfront. however not going back again. However, experienced some discrimination. We walked in to the restaurant and were told how much it costs at front. Then we asked for a warmer spot because it was cold, however my husband couldn't take the heat due to health issues. We asked to be moved inside where the heat was not direct on our faces. We were told that we could be moved but no booth was available by the window. We noticed there were two booths by the window which remained unoccupied until we left. read more

Very pleasant spot for date night or catching up with friends. When I went around 8pm, I was able to get a window table right away. The view is great, very relaxing for sipping drinks. Their drinks and food menu is decent and not overpriced like a lot of other fancy places. You order on a tablet that was pretty user friendly. Parking can be tricky, you have to create an account on your phone, they don't give you physical parking voucher to validate. Also make sure to keep it under 2 hours if you want your parking paid for. read more

This was a beautiful breakfast spot I loved the breakfast bar facing the water. I went for the views and the food and drink was amazing!! 10/10 read more

I was here for a private dinner work event. As always the food was delicious and great service! Such a pretty place. They never disappoint. I ordered my steak medium well and it was perfect! So tender with just the perfect crispy edges. My food was delicious and great. Thanks again! read more

Absolutely gorgeous views - amazing!! 1st we sat at a table for our 1st meal that it was literally in my chest. Weirdest table ever. The tables for breakfast towards the patio did not have that issue thankfully. Burrata loved it. The cheese was a great texture and tomatoes were wonderful. The balsamic was a little light but that's a personal preference and next time I'll ask for some on the side. Fish and chips is typical fish and chips and pretty standard fare. Breakfast sandwich solid flavor and can actually taste the cheese. The ham is a bit saltier than typical deli ham which adds to the overall flavor. If you have dietary issues w/fat content, w/the cheese and butter, this may not be the dish for you. The mushroom scramble is a huge portion enough to split. The mushrooms were devoid of color so a little lighter hand on the sauce of the veggies overall to maintain their freshness. Butternut bisque and clam chowder for the price is a small portion and probably the worst dishes we had. Bread service change out that butter yuck Thanksgiving dinner - the ham was dry, the potatoes had no flavor, and not impressed by the apple trifle. The chocolate mousse rocked. Not sure why it was so expensive given the selection of dishes was on the smaller side. $85 would have been the sweet spot. $110 when not drinking alcohol is a little pricey. We thought there would be more. Greek yogurt my fav breakfast. Get the additional side of fruit and it's a great way to start the day. I'd also like a little more of the muesli and would ask for additional next time. Would love to know what brand of yogurt they use. Nicole was our server 2 of our breakfasts and loved her! She was fantastic!! read more

We were at the Grand Ballroom for Thanksgiving. I was expecting more to be honest. Perhaps I assumed there would be more options for food since it was a buffet. Don't get me wrong the food was great but I think I was just thinking of a Las Vegas style buffet haha I loved the salads and I appreciated that the crab were cut open. It definitely made it easier to enjoy! The salmon was great too. It felt a bit to "conference-like" since it was actually held in the ballroom, and the tables and chairs were spaced out in the same way. It would have been nice if there was maybe more Christmas decor or some music to lighten the atmosphere. Service was fine. They had the beverages and coffee/tea in a section for you to help yourself. Alcoholic beverages were brought to the table at request. read more

Food hasn't changed much. I stopped coming in for a while because of the portioning wasn't working. I stopped into the lounge to see a new bartender, Carol. She was attentive kept her head up. Checked on customers around the perimeter of the bar constantly. This is what should be expected from the Hyatt. I am a retired chef from HI AZ and WA so I know the business. I would hire her in a heartbeat. Review the chef and cooks. read more

Not good...High prices and food was out during buffet. Poor service too! Charged $75 per person and that did not inlcude coffee. $5 each!

If you get a chance to get brunch on the weekend, Devina is the best server! So friendly, informative, and attentive! She made our visit top notch! The food was standard but her service was memorable and phenomenal! read more

Was looking around for an Easter Brunch location. Found Water's but it was sold out. We were told that Easter Brunch was booked over a month. Manny our server fellow kababyan, was helpful when choosing items. Especially since I'm allergic to shrimp, lemongrass, and coconut. Location was fun. Located inside the Hyatt Regency in Renton. View of Lake Washington was spectacular. Easter today we were blessed with 60 degree weather. So it was warm and sunny, then amazing views of when the sun started to set. Now the food! My husband got the lamb shank. He loved it, fell right off the bone. It was so rich he had to take half home for lunch the next day. Daughter 1 got the petite filet steak with mash. She enjoyed it so much she finished the whole thing. Daughter 2 got the wagyu burger. Also enjoyed but she could not finished and had to take home for leftovers as well. I had the salmon with sunchokes cooked the way I wanted, almost raw. The skin was crisp, and the salmon melts in my mouth. I actually ate the whole thing. I was too full for dessert so I took home black sesame cheesecake. I actually didn't care for it once I tried some at home. I wanted to take home the lemon panna cotta but could not due how it's made. Now I wish I could've . The rest of the fam shared the cookie with ice cream. I took a bite which was enough to help with the sweet tooth. Other than that I think the the main course was worth skipping dessert for. I almost forgot to mention for appetizers we shared Yorkshire pudding with grilled onions a foam Beechers. Kinda clumsy to eat but still pretty tasty. The truffle French fries with aioli sauce helped while we waited long for our food. Getting our food did take quite long time. We had crying kids all around us. I think once they got fed, it wasn't as noisy. I totally understand, I had little ones back in the day. Not sure why they were slow. It is Easter, but they weren't really busy. I heard they were totally busy for Easter brunch though. A bit on the spendy side, and knowing my friends they probably wouldn't dine here on purpose. However if you are staying at the hotel. Hyatt Regency, I would suggest to dine here. There's not a lot of fine dining in the area. I would totally come back. Even just to get the panna cotta hahah. read more

Located in the Hyatt, there is a gorgeous view of Lake Washington - and they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. My coworkers and I came here for an easy dinner while staying in the hotel. I really enjoyed the caesar salad and the oysters. The calamari was a huge portion - but was just fine for me. Service was great - we sat at the bar and all the bartenders were checking in and happy to recommend drinks for us. read more

Went in for a Galentines day dinner with a bunch of my mom friends and it was great. The dinner was good and service was amazing. Where I docked the star is on the amount of time we waited for our food to come out. It probably was at an hour and a half before our food came out. I understand we had a table of 8 but also the restaurant wasn't busy at that time of the night since we came at 7-8pm. read more

Food- amazing and cooked to perfection. I wanted light portions so I ordered from there small plates section and had the roasted Brussels sprouts- OMG the best I ever had even if you don't like Brussels sprouts. I also ordered the salmon and omg it was seasoned to perfection and was like toasted with a slight crunch but the inside SUPER tender falling apart and melted like butter read more

Service was slow for lunch today. The 2 hour parking voucher was NOT enough! All 4 of us in my party, had to each pay an additional $5.99 for the handful of minutes beyond 2 hours that we were parked. If service had been excellent, I feel we could have gotten out of there without paying for parking. Probably won't be back. Food was good. I had the Caesar salad with chicken. It was loud outside and would not recommend sitting on the deck if you want to talk without shouting. read more

The Easter Brunch was the worst buffet I've ever had, at any price. And that is saying a lot when you are 77, and the buffet costs $75 plus tax. Limited selection and dried-out items. We were in and out in less than an hour. Nice-looking restaurant and bar. I was originally going to ask about regular menu items, but after the buffet, I can't imagine any steak that is cooked well. read more

A classy place with beautiful views of Lake Washington! Wonderful for brunch, dates, or on business. It's a nice venue to watch boaters & people hang out on the dock or pass through to nearby Gene Coulon park. Food and cocktails are all generally really good, it is on the pricier end yet worth the quality & experience. The staff is mostly all welcoming yet can take some time to close out the bill or food to arrive. Reservations are recommended with a quick phone call or they do best they can to accommodate your party if you walk in. Parking is validated for the parking garage across from the hotel entrance. read more

I went to Water Table for dinner with my partner. Neither of us had tried the place before, but let me tell you how much we enjoyed it. The food was amazing, and the service was outstanding. We ended up sitting at the bar, and Isaiah, our server and bartender, was a joy to be around. He made delicious drinks and gave great recommendations. I had the Hatter chicken with corn purée, and it was so delicious-- the best tender and seasoned chicken I've had at a restaurant so far. I also got the mac and cheese, while my partner had the risotto with squash and seafood soup, which he loved. After dinner, we went downstairs for the live music and views, which were fantastic. We will definitely be back! read more

Water's Table is the crown jewel of Renton dining experience. The view, the food , the service are all second to none. Water's Table has been our top destination for our corporate lunches. The first thing that sweeps you in are the full glass windows provide you with breath taking views of Lake Washington. Even on a cloudy day, you get the sense that there's something special about having a water view. Secondly, the restaurant feels like a hidden jewel. Granted, Water's Table is located within a hotel but don't let that give you any pause. In fact, it probably elevates it's service. Third, the food. Food was cooked to perfection. I've only ever been for lunch but never had a "miss" Fourth, the service. Talk about "white glove service." From the Hostess to the Server, everyone pulls off the sense that they want to be there and they take pride in what they do. I haven't had a bad customer service interaction yet. I will continue to recommend to my colleagues and friends to visit Water Table and hey who knows, maybe I'll even stay at the Hyatt it's located in (despite being local). read more

I am so happy to give a local business five stars. Five stars is the best rating you can give any business. I've been to this place several times over the last two years. As a patron of Waters Table solo, on a date, hanging with family, corporate events, mother daughter dates and more service has always been top tier. My favorite dish is the butter and white wine clams and secondly the salmon. I have enjoyed delicious wine and craft cocktails here. It's one of Renton's best kept secrets. There is a beautiful view of Lake Washington and you can see if from any table in the restaurant. One of my favorite servers Nancy always greets me with a smile and over the years I can say we have become friends. That doesn't happen all the time. They take care of loyal customers and remember your name! read more

The staff is friendly, food is okay, and the ambiance is nice with a great view of the lake...until they close the shades that is. On a beautiful sunny day I was seated right by the window but about 10 minutes into my time there the sun shades/blinds came rolling down. This was around dinner. Myself and a couple other guests (at separate times) asked for the shades to be rolled back up (to enjoy the view) but the waiter said they can't because the entire wall of shades go up - versus one window at a time. My assumption is one guest in the restaurant asked for the shades to be down and the staff stuck with that one guest's request. Bummer because the view could barely be seen. Hopefully they fix this silly issue and have control over one window at a time versus all or nothing. Because why have a restaurant on the water if guests can't even see the view? read more

It was okay. That's about it. It's a lovely restaurant and when we stayed at the hotel for a staycation we figured we would give it a try. We were maybe 1 of 5 tables for Sunday brunch at about 8:30AM. Not sure if that's just not a busy time or what but the service was so slow. It took forever to get a drink and then even longer to get to order food. It did come out fairly quickly once ordered. Spouse had the breakfast burger which was really pretty lifeless. Not much flavor. I got the French toast and fried chicken. The flavors were decent but the textures were weird. The French toast was dry but mushy somehow? Chicken was seasoned well but breading was a mess. The hot sauce compound butter was fun but the Woodinville whiskey Maple syrup lacked the whiskey flavor. All in all, prices were too high for mediocre service and food and we wouldn't go back. Which is too bad. We live just down the road and would have loved a good, close brunch spot. read more

Great view of Lake Washington, reasonably priced brunch menu and excellent service. My friend and I came on Saturday morning and were seated at the window table with gorgeous view. Luckily the sky was blue. I made a reservation the night before just in case and requested the view table. FYI Restaurant was packed with people and more waiting for the table. So I'd suggest making reservation. Parking is free for 2 hours located right by the hotel. No validation needed. The restaurant is inside of Hyatt. We ordered steak and egg brunch and farmers brunch, then spilt. I enjoyed NY steak and well seasoned salad and potatoes. Pineapple Mimosa was a good accompaniment. Good champagne! Bottomless is 20USD for 2 hour limit. Starting a day with water view, great food and drink is worth getting out of the house. Definitely come back when I'm nearby. read more

We picked this restaurant from the long list of restaurants we wanna try. Went there during a sunny weekday for lunch : As expected the view is just breathtaking especially with clear skys and sunbeams offering more colors to the landscape : 5 stars Staff was friendly and welcoming , to our surprise the glasses (where they pourred water) smelt really bad and even though they changed them for us but still same. Alright back to the reason you are reading this : FOOD! Nah it wasnt best and i would say it s just average : 1- menu is so limited: you would expect more from a fancy place 2- I know what u r thinking "limited items for better quality" , well ! be patient and read the rest. 3- ordered "medium" steak and frites : suprrrise! We got a well done instead! Had to change it, new one was a bit better ( still not medium) but the charm is gone 4- got the fish tacos as appetizers and it was fine and also risotto was just ok. Why did this review get longer than expected? Long story short go there to enjoy the view and get drinks but dont expect much from the food(yeah yeah i could have said that from the beginning) read more

Had reservation for 7:15. Got a nice window table with a nice view of the lake. Kathy was our server and she was hands down one of the best servers I have had ever. She not only had amazing customer service, she could read our energy and knew when to come or leave us alone. She got personal with us as well which was a nice touch to the evening. Both my guest and I asked for drinks not on the menu and Kathy and the bartender were able to make them without any issues. They added a nice fresh flower for a touch. Ask for the Snow drink that we made up; tequila wonders! We ordered the fish and chips that comes with 3 generous size pieces. Fish has a nice batter to it. The restaurant gives off a very classy but sexy vibe that is not to busy during the evening. Great place for an intimate date with friends or loved ones. Kathy made our evening here enjoyable... make sure to ask for Kathy! read more
