The food is definitely incredible! The service left a little to be desired (just slow-ish) but I'd definitely come back and/or order take out. And they gave us a few dessert so I have no complaints at all. And they communicated the issues with us. 5 stars.

We came in on a Saturday night and sat ourselves in the bar section with no wait. Everything was amazing. We were even able to order a couple things off the lunch menu. Food and drinks were great!

We very much appreciate the prices at M&S! This is a place we believe we can come to for good food at a reasonable price! The drinks too are priced competitively and there are plenty of bottles of wine that are good and a good value unlike just about everywhere else. We will most definitely return! The only catch, don't charge for a loyalty program. No other restaurant does this and we did not sign up.

The portions are smaller than they used to be. A bit of shrinkflation. Having said that, the food was excellent, and to be honest, the smaller serving size allowed me to feel fully satisfied.

As a former fan of McCormick & Schmick, our last few visits have been quite disappointing.Lobster bisque: this was served to us lukewarm and with visible streaks of oil on the top of the soup. Previously it used to include small chunks of lobster, however, any that we received were minuscule during our most recent visit. The soup was also greatly over saltedLobster bisque mashed potatoes: we ordered the for the first time and much to our dismay it was merely lobster bisque poured over mashed potatoes and then microwaved. The soup was still far too salty and although there were more chunks of lobster, the film on the surface as a result of the soup overheating made the side altogether unappealingCrab cake sandwich: this was quite soggy and primarily just breading. As this dish was once our favorite dish with a crispy base and large pieces of crab, the contrast was extremely disappointing.Chocolate purse: the best part of the meal, however, still underwhelming. The presentation of a chocolate shell is impressive but the dessert is difficult to eat due to the thickness of the chocolate. Inside is chocolate mousse and whipped cream which pleasantly was not overly sweet when paired with the berries.The service was also quite lackluster during our visit. Our waitress was visibly impatient and bothered by our requests (such as a water refill when ordering dessert). The atmosphere remains unchanged but the decrease in quality of service and food, especially in consideration of the prices, makes us unlikely to return in the near future.

The best thing about M&S is that they are consistently good across all locations that I have visited. When traveling, you don't always want the spendiness of Capital Grille but you also want better food than Maggiano's, this experience fits as a nice option somewhere in between. So when I moved to SW Minneapolis, it was nice to find this location. I would go a lot more but parking is terrible there. That is my only complaint.
The food was good overall. The potato soup excellent. The service spectacular. Even with some renovation happening, the noise was kept to a minimum. This reflects some really good management. This has become a new go to place for me.

I've been to McCormicks a few times and this was a very disappointing meal. Our hamburgers were all well (well...) done, (two of the three were to be medium well). My substitution for the french fries did not come with my meal and I had to wait a long time to get it. And, then I was charged for it. It was my sister's birthday and her free ice cream cake was not given as a special thing, but just dropped off at the table by a younger employee, along with the other dishes of ice cream ordered for the two girls with us. Our server was nice but not on her A game that day; we feel for her but the typical experience at McCormicks was not happening yesterday.
Been many times. Not sure what's happening, but they are really not what they used to be. Ordered a drink and it wasn't anything like pictured or described. Fish tacos were bad. Place was dusty, at the bar.

Everything about this place was awesome. Got the pork chop well done, it was perfect. PERFECT.
Brought my family in for a nice sit down dinner....so we thought...ordered the shrimp kisses which we thought were good. Ordered the broccoli came out burnt to a crisp on the tops it like turned to a dust when touched. We ordered the 8 oz filet and 15 mins after ordering were told that they were out.I had to get a steak I didn't want as well as my wife. My sons cheeseburger was ordered medium and came out with ice cold chunks in the middle.Long story short folks my wife and I are doubled over in pain and stuck on the toilet this morning...we ate the mashed potatoes, one bite of broccoli, and shared the shrimp kisses....We called to talk to the assistant manager immediately this morning and report the concern and was told they'd document it and was pretty much hung up on.Never again will we go here, we'll stick to Pittsburgh Blue where the food and service is excellent ?

Brought my family in for what was hoping to be a nice elegant dinner, but the outcome of our visit was not so good! The next day we both felt sick and when we called to inform the restaurant their response was only that they would document our name. No apologies or try to make it right with use.

Half my group had amazing food (tuna!), the other half said their salmon was a little fishy. M&S is currently remodeling and the seating is being updated, we asked to be moved to a better spot, but still had a direct view into the kitchen. Great service though and a nicely varied menu with options for kids.
