    Our evening at Chandler’s was wonderful. The service we received from both Ryan and Cohen was impeccable. My mum ordered the filet mignon and said it was the best she’d had. We had recently been to a steakhouse in Seattle and this was by far better in quality. I had the halibut which was equally delicious and their bread service with the olive tapenade and champagne dill butter was delightful. Would highly recommend Chandler’s for an evening of wonderful food, service and ambience.

    We really enjoyed our dinner there. Great location and service from Sawyer was terrific. Husband loves their halibut fish and chips when they are available. I had the lobster special dinner which was very good. I've had lobster specials at other restaurants, and they are usually very dry and rubbery (we're looking at you, Ruth's Chris). The Anthony's lobster special dinner was moist and perfectly cooked. Parking structure with an elevator straight up to the restaurant is super easy too.
