Double Eagle Steak & Seafood - Sequim (WA)

3 /5 Steven Nichols: Where do I begin… this is one of the lowest rated steakhouses and fine dining establishments I have ever intentionally gone to. 4.3 stars out of hundreds of reviews, and now I know why. You drive up to this beautifully landscaped modern building with plenty of parking. Double doors into the reception area. Me, my wife and 6 other people waited at the reception desk for 10 minutes while the only person manning the desk (for two restaurants) not only continued to talk on the phone, but a few minutes after she hung up, she continued to write notes before helping ANY of the people who were waiting for her. When we were finally seated, we were greeted by a very nice female server with blue hair. And since today was “National Pride Day” she was sporting large rainbow heart earrings. I truly don’t care about anyone’s sexuality or support thereof, but is it important for someone at work to make this statement, while at work? We ordered an appetizer and it came to the table differently than described by the menu. The menu described it as fried potatoes. What we got was a baked potato smashed with a fork with cheeses, bacon, chives, sour cream and salsa. We ate it without complaining as it looked and smelled great and we were starved. My wife and I ordered ice tea with sweetener, and we had to ask for it 3 times before it found its way to the table. I ordered a mixed salad with kale green goddess dressed salad. I ordered the sirloin steak “medium rare”. The salad came with 90% kale, a few chunks of iceberg lettuce and a cup of cold green peas. The steak was served to me cold rare in the middle of a thin steak. Shocking. This is not what I ordered and I took a photo for you to see below. I sent the steak back to be cooked to medium rare. My wife ordered the chicken Marsala and after she took a bite, the sauce was so sweet that she left all the sauce she was able to remove from her plate. These three items with two ice teas came today $71.50. We told the server how disappointed we were with the food and the service, and she said she would discount my meal. When she returned, the bill showed a $7 discount. This place has management issues, personnel issues, and the food (new menu) is severely misrepresented on the menu, to what shows up on the table. The cook (won’t call them a chef), the receptionist and the manager need to be replaced before I would EVER consider dining here again or recommending this restaurant to anyone I cared about. Avoid this place like the plague. We will.

1 /5 nortonet ollyd: Went here based on reviews. The menu sounds great. I was going to order a steak , glad I didn’t. Jeremy was nice but scattered. He took 15 minutes to bring a table near us their Pepsi. The females on staff didn’t seem to be helping. The mashed potatoes were cold and lumpy like they were out of the fridge and microwaved improperly. The chicken Marsala had decent flavor but it was a minuscule slice of chicken breast maybe $2 worth of chicken. The seasonal veggies were two broccoli florets and maybe five green beans. I wanted to love it but I didn’t. The hostess also took 8 minutes to appear and there was nobody else waiting.

3 /5 Arnold Bleicher: Our first time in this restaurant and, while it wasnt terrible, it wasnt great. We expected something more upscale. I mean, it has its own entrance from Stymies (which we like and frequent) and it is presented as something more than Stymies. But, in reality, its not. We much prefer Stymies where you can get an actual table, not a booth. OK, it was really crowded on Saturday night. Really busy. They just didnt seem to have the staff for it. Not the fault of the staff. As a result, we waited 20 minutes before anyone came by to ask if we needed anything. Staff was very nice, explained that they were busy, and that there would be delays. The biggest issue was the noise. The place needs some sound-dampening treatment. It was really noisy and made any attempt at conversation more difficult than a restaurant should be. I expect this sound level in a bar. But not in a "fine dining" atmosphere, which this place is not. Crab cakes ($26) were very good. My partners salmon ($28) was also very good. My halibut ($34) was way over-cooked and the thick layer of spice was worthy of being scraped off. I asked for lemon wedges to help rehydrate the fish. All-in-all, neither one of us would go back. We will continue to visit Stymies, but not Double Eagle, which was worthy of a double star and a half but, as thats not an option, it gets 3.

4 /5 Danny Roark: My wife and I are from out of state. Friends who are regular customers ask us to meet them there for dinner. Reviews had me concerned, however we all had a great experience. Good and service was good. Cost was reasonable as well. Try it!

2 /5 Robert Gutierrez: Food was bland and poorly prepared, service was kind but absurdly slow and atmosphere was nothing special. Similar to an upscale Dennys decor. Soup took more than an hour, 3 med-rare steaks came out WELL done and were def not ribeyes, salmon was dry and bland. Save your money and go somewhere else. 5 people nearly $400, one entree each and one drink each and we shared 2 appetizers. Not about the money, in fact we laughed it off. Nor did we complain but will never go back. Spend your hard earned cash somewhere else.
