Arrived Friday morning for our 11:30am reservation and were seated soon after our arrival. Interior is clean and we were seated near the gas fireplace which was nice on a cold rainy day in March. Service was friendly and our server did a very good job anticipating our needs before asking such as refills on my Coke Zero – yes, they serve Coke Zero here!Wild Seafood Sampler served with three different sauces was good but quite pricey and in retrospect, we would have both been just as satisfied if we had just placed one order for the Wild Hand-cut Calamari and split it.The Wild Seafood Linguine Alfredo was served hot and was very rich and quite tasty; however, I was quite surprised to find it topped with wilted basil leaves that were obviously not fresh. The Wild Alaskan Halibut with mushroom risotto was also tasty; however, again we should have just ordered one of these Lunch Entrees and would have been quite satisfied.With tip, our $151 lunch for two with just one beer and a coke zero was quite pricey but both the service and food were very good. If we feel like having a very nice but spendy lunch, we will return.

My wife is vegan and cannot always find a good choices on the menu at many restaurants. Here she found a mushroom burger which she thought was fantastic. I had duck breast which was delicious. Our server was excellent, very attentive and friendly. We hadn’t been here before but we will be

The Green House has risen to become the best restaurant in town for foodies. Eric and Krystle have made their mark on this restaurant and lifted it well above its previous level in all respects except perhaps the noise level. When the restaurant is full it can be a little noisy although we have experienced much worse. The level of service is great, the menu is inspired, and the quality is excellent. it is not inexpensive, but it is well worth the expense. The food is always delicious and perfectly prepared even when the kitchen is clearly working flat out. The interior space is modern and classy without the stark semi-industrial feel of some restaurants and that helps to offset the less than romantic location. It does not enjoy a gorgeous view but makes up for it with easy parking and a great dining experience. This is without a doubt our favorite restaurant in Gig Harbor. The first time we came to the restaurant we didn't make a reservation but that was a mistake that we didn't make again.

I had dinner last night at Greenhouse with my family and it was great! We didn't have a reservation, but they were able to squeeze us 4 in the bar area no problem. We started with the Herbed Goat Cheese and Coconut Crusted Prawns. These were absolutely delicious, I will definitely be ordering these again next time I am in. For our entrées, I had the Flat Iron Steak Salad, my mom had the Wild Seafood Sauté Salad, and my brother got the Filet (subbed his potatoes for brussel sprouts). My grandma go the chowder (not pictured), but it was great. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I will definitely try to explore more of the menu next time I am back in. The vibe here is very nice, I would go here on a date, or to just dine with my family. Server and hostess were very friendly.

Always a great dining experience at GreenHouse! It's been our local “go-to” place for eating out for many years. The best part being the environment that is inviting, welcoming, and allows for dining companion conversation without being in competition with overly loud music, or a poorly designed acoustic space.

My husband and I were driving back to the peninsula from Seattle and stopped in for dinner at Greenhouse. It was an early dinner so we were seated right away without a reservation. We sat near the fireplace so the ambiance was quiet and romantic. Both of us were pleased with our food choices. I had the grilled halibut and he had the scallops. The wine list was decent and focused on local PNW wines, and they have a nice craft cocktail list as well. We will return and I recommend it to others. We had no idea it was there tucked away in a little shopping area not far from the freeway exit. Great find!

Awesome place! Great for date night or weekend dinner. This is one of those places, you get what you pay for. Excellent food and good value. The ambience and atmosphere are great for an intimate experience and or a mature group of adults. Highly recommend you try this place you won't be disappointed. Oh yea don't forget to try the deserts!
From the moment you walk through the door to the moment, your seated staff contribute to an excellent experience. The thematic decorations give an added visual experience to the dining. In all our years of dining the quality of the dishes presented has never failed to remind us why we continue to highly recommend the Green House.

Wine selection is excessively focused on American wines. I would give 5 stars if they would improve their selection of European wines. Prices are a little steep. Service and food are great.
Terrific Wedge Salad with house made bleu cheese dressing - recommend getting the dressing on the side - was a bit too much, requiring more lettuce. Very good calamari - light coating, very tasty! Excellent service!

Very pleasant pre-Valentine's Day dinner for two. All around friendly and attentative. Really enjoyed the food. Sat at a 'high table' right next to the bar .... much too loud for us, next time we'll make sure to get a regular table.

We had our little valentine date early and it is our first time to Green.House. The hostess and waiter (Westley) was great and our entree was delicious. A little disappointed with the seafood sampler apps. It's a $26 sampler and we got 2 cocktail shrimps, a small crab cake and maybe 10 little pieces of calamari. We both had halibut (one was panko crust and one was grill). Panko halibut a little dry but the sauce made up for it. Our dessert: creme brûlée was perfect (not too sweet).
