Our favorite restaurant, this was the first time my wife ordered and the chef recommend her choice of steaming was not going to be the best, he would do it but didn't recommend it for this type fish [swordfish]. He was right she got blackened and wow. Our server was Roque and he is a very friendly knowledgeable professional guy. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. We go here for the restaurant and it just happens to be at a casino instead of the other way around. You can go to the buffet and get more food for the same price but it comes down to quality or quantity, I choose quality, and we still leave with a doggy bag.Hello and thank you for such a positive review about the Red Wind's Seafood Restaurant. Your comments have been forwarded to Roque's manager so he can get the recognition he deserves. We are so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed the food and service and it shows that our efforts here are making a difference for our valued guests. We do hope you dine with us again soon.

Rock Fish has fresh, delicious, standard and unique selections for breakfast and serves late so you can call it brunch. I had the goat cheese, spinach and tomato scramble with marble rye bread, very fresh freezer jam and a wonderful dark roast African blend coffee. And donât forget the substantial portion of fresh fruit! I was famished after fasting for a medical procedure and the waitress quickly got my order, brought my coffee and delivered the food as soon as it was available. The scramble was cooked perfectly with fluffy eggs and delicately cooked fresh ingredients. The staff their are super friendly and efficient. The place is spotless with a contemporary yet inviting warm decor. They also have an excellent Happy Hour! If you havenât tried it, please do! Youâll really enjoy it!

Stopped to get steamer clams. They were fresh and very competitively priced--$5.99/lb.Took 4 lbs.home, and they were outstanding--tender, tasty, no sand and all cooked up perfectly. I was impressed at the variety and selection of fresh local seafood as well as that brought in from other regions--all nicely displayed and reasonably priced. The staff were helpful and attentive. Would definitely go back next time in Olympia area.

Had breakfast and dinner here as we were staying nearby and they have a great view over the Marina (I donât think they have increased their prices because of the view - I thought the prices were pretty reasonable). I thought the food was good - not great. The service was quick and friendly.

We had an early pre-theatre Saturday dinner here, and all four of us were very happy with what we ordered and the service.We were at a spacious window table for four with the high tide next to and seemingly under us. It was as if the seal who was playing in the bay 15 meters away was expecting we could slip him a snack. Good open wine choices. My wife particularly enjoyed her merlot, Bernard Griffin I seem to recall.Hi Bob, thank you for joining us on Saturday and for taking the time to share your comments! I am so happy that you were able to enjoy a window table as well as the wine and your meal! We hope to see you again soon. ~Taylor

4. Chelsea Farms Oyster Bar

Reviewed By PAboyinFL
We traveled to Oregon and Washington, and thought we would be able to find good local seafood. While searching nearly in vain around Olympia, we came up with Chelsea Farms Oyster Bar. When we arrived, it was obvious the venue was much more upscale than we had in mind, but we were there, so we gave it a try. We started with a dozen oysters. We had them in the shuckers choice, which was a combo of four different oysters for $36. They were incredible. Two types were very meatly, and two types were very sweet. The oysters were raw on the half shell, but no hot sauce, horseradish, or crackers were offered to go with them. We did order a side of bread which was excellent for an additional $3. We searched the menu for other plates, but found little that appealed to us, especially at the prices listed. No salmon was on the menu at all. The general crowd at that dinnertime seemed pretentious which fit right in with the menu. When we ended the meal after the oysters, the waiter got a bit of an attitude with us. Apparently, fried fresh seafood is not something that is found in the Pacific Northwest.

We received a gift card for Anthony's and this was our first time visiting the Olympia location. The featured drink was a peach daiquiri, and we finished with a shared peach dessert. A spinach seasonal salad and shrimp entree were the main course. Service was excellent and the view at sunset was lovely.Thank you so much for joining us! It sounds like a wonderful evening and I am so happy to hear that you were able to try some of our peach specialties and that you also enjoyed the salad, shrimp and service. We hope you can come see us again soon! ~Taylor

We celebrated my husband's birthday with dinner at Gardner's and everything was great. Starting with wine and appetizer and ending with delicious chocolate cake, everything was excellent. We had the stuffed mushroom appetizer, side salads, scallops (so GOOD!) the salmon, and chocolate cake with a birthday candle. Our delightful and knowledgeable server, Kirsten, made sure we had an awesome dining experience. Thank you Kirsten! We will be back.
