McCormick & Schmicks Seafood & Steaks

The food and drinks were quite good! Our service was not the worst but also not the best but the meal was good. The non-alcoholic beverages were well done also. The calamari is good but you'll definitely need more sauce for the large plate. Portions are good and food is well seasoned. Overall a good experience.

My wife and I went for our 1 year anniversary. We wanted to go somewhere we’ve never been before and weren’t disappointed. Brandon was our host that night. He greeted us warmly and showed us to our table. The view of Broad st. was excellent, even from where we were seated. Zach, our server was very helpful with our menu selection and was very attentive. The cooking staff must be a well oiled machine. Our appetizers came out in no time flat, and just as we were finishing with those our entrees weren’t far behind. I mean literally as we were finishing Zach asked if we were ready for our main course. 3 minutes and 28 seconds later ( yes, I timed it ) our steaks were in front of us cooked to perfection. This place is everything it’s supposed to be and more when it comes to fine dining. I just have to remember that next time not to bring the truck. Thanks again Brandon, Zach and the amazing staff who work behind the scenes.

We went for the Fall 2022 restaurant week dinner menus and I really liked their "Swordfish (Fish steak)"; it was really juicy and tender, taste really like a steak! My friends ordered different main dishes but they were not worth to try. I ordered their award wining soup "New England clam chowder" and it was creamy enough (not TOO rich or dense). The "Chocolate silk pie" I ordered as my dessert was a mistake, it was WAY TOO rich & dense that I couldn't even finish the half of it, but my friend ordered the "Crème brulee" and it was pretty good. The servant was really kind and willing to explain all the questions we asked during the meal. This place will be good for a dinner date with relatively quiet entertainment so you can chat with your companions, but just be careful what you order here and maybe do some homework about what you order before you go so you won't regret your visit.

Don't know why the menu looks the way it does but the food and service was great, the oysters I had was small but very fresh and sweet! The black angus ribeye steak was simply delicious especially with their spice, every bite you can savor both the seasoning and the beef itself, it got a perfect balance without one to overpower the other. The dessert was great too, simple yet satisfying. The experience was great overall and would recommend it to friends.

I haven't been to Mccormick & Schmick's since before the pandemic and I decided to meet my friends here for restaurant week since we enjoyed this place previously, however this visit was disappointing. My starter was the Crispy Coconut Shrimp with orange horseradish marmalade (this was the only dish that was actually good and cooked correctly). My entrée was Bourbon Glazed Salmon with mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. I've never had salmon that looked to be flattened like a chicken cutlet and it was overcooked and dry. This piece of fish was too small to be overcooked, how did the chef allow this to happen? One of my friends had the same exact order as mine and hers was also the same way. My other friend had the Mussels, C.A.B. Top Sirloin with an extra side of Brussel sprouts....her Brussel sprouts came out plain and had to be sent back to be fixed correctly and her steak was not at all what she asked for. For all of us the appetizers/sides were the best part of everything we had. The biggest disappointment was the dessert....it was supposed to be a Heath Bar Brownie, but looked and tasted more like gingerbread mixed with pumpkin. Other surrounding tables were served what actually looked to be real brownies unlike the dry looking cake we received. Our waitress, Maritza, was not very attentive at all. Since it was the end of the night we finally asked to speak with the chef. We thought we would be able to since it was late, the doors were already locked and the people inside were finishing up their dinner. It was awhile later and our waitress never came back to us. We flagged her down asking is the chef coming out and were told that she was busy and just took off the price of ONLY one of my friends dessert even though we all complained about the same thing. We didn't ask for anything to be deducted and we never thought that was a thing for a fixed price menu. We were never asked if we wanted to switch for another dessert or anything. How you do that for only one person and not for the other two? The host was actually more attentive and friendly and even came to check on us at our table. She even said we should've been offered something else and apologized for what we were given. Regardless of the mediocre service from our waitress, we still each gave a 20% tip....I wish I would've gave less and the rest to the host. I know that the host and the bartender were actually new and only there for about a week, so maybe the chefs were also new because the quality of food is not at all the same anymore. Everyone suffered from the pandemic and we don't mind paying more money for really good food, not for this subpar service. I don't have a desire to come back here anymore unless I find out everything has improved. Also if you're looking for the closest parking, The Wanamaker garage is right around the corner. Purchase parking off of a parking app instead to save over half the price.

Came to McCormick & Schmick's for the first time during restaurant week for a birthday dinner with family. Restaurant location is pretty good, we went on a Sunday, street parking was free and convenient. Restaurant easily accommodated our party of 12. We met in the bar area which was okay, chairs and decor however were pretty out dated. Drinks were okay, bartender was nice. Restaurant week menu provided sufficient menu options and was priced well. Our waiter was very nice, only gave 3 stars because I asked several times during service for dishes to be removed from my area that I was planning to eat, waiters response was "someone else may be interested in eating the salad" Needless to say I had several dishes piled up before they were actually removed which is a pet peeve of mine. All courses were served quickly which is a plus. I ordered Salmon which came with mashed potatoes and spinach. I would say Salmon tasted average at best, garnish could have been seasoned better. Portion size was pretty good. Women's bathroom is definitely out dated, not ideal for bathroom pics. I did recommend this restaurant for convenience and pricing.

While visiting Philadelphia, my wife and I noticed Mc Cormick's. ? The outside appearance looked as rich as we felt, so we figured we'd give them a shot. ? Note: We took into consideration beforehand that they might be pricey because most Steak ? & Seafood ? restaurants are. I'd suggest you check the menu for entrees you think you want to eat before you dine in. Especially if you're paying for multiple dishes. ? Their menu options are decent. Keep in mind, they're known for Steak & Seafood. This dining experience overall was pleasant. Our waitress did her best to accommodate our food restrictions. The food was tasty and well prepared. My wife gives Mc Cormick's two thumbs up. We'd recommend this restaurant to family and friends.

I came here for restaurant week and the food was just okay. The adults in my party ordered the $25, 3 course option. The food was good but my chicken was very small and not cooked as described on the menu. When I say small I mean maybe 3oz and I got grilled chicken vs. pan roasted as the menu described. We did order an extra appetizer of the bacon wrapped shrimp. The portion was small and the shrimp a bit over cooked. Desserts were all good and the best part of the meal. I also don't want to harp too much on service because in Covid days it is hard to find workers but service is slow. Would I come back probably not. NJ is really stepping up their food game and no need to pay for parking. Try it for yourself if in the area but I would not make a special trip.
