WildFin American Grill - Tacoma (WA)

5 /5 ALW: Great location with amazing views! We had Sunday brunch and we walked right in and was seated right away. Cocktails were nothing special but would love to come back and try more. Food was pretty good, but Im extremely disappointed in the popular fish and chips. The fish was pathetic! Three little nugget pieces, I thought it was a joke at first. Shrimp and grits was amazing! Service was good. I appreciated the open kitchen concept, that tells me that everything should be clean because customers can see it. Overall, Id go back for dinner.

4 /5 Jason Ray Pascua: WildFin in Tacoma has so much going for it — the location is beautiful, with amazing views of the water and even a giant fountain out front where kids can splash and play. It’s a lively spot that feels perfect for both family outings and date nights. I ordered the Fresh Catch Halibut, which was flavorful and had great textures. That said, I did find myself questioning just how “fresh” the catch really was, which kept it from being a flawless experience. Still, it was enjoyable overall and paired nicely with the atmosphere. Service was a definite highlight — the bartenders were attentive, helpful, and made the evening smooth and enjoyable. Overall, I’d give WildFin a solid 4 out of 5. Great view, great service, and good food — just not quite perfect.

5 /5 Lisa Paige: I came in with my husband and my nephew. The food here is delicious, we each ordered different items, my husband had the fish and chips, my nephew said that the salmon was the best he had ever eaten, and I had the french dip and it was perfect! The service was great and atmosphere is very nice, from the view to the light colors of the bar area. Everyone was so kind to us. We will be back soon!

4 /5 Clint Harding: Wildfin in one of several restaurants in the Point Defiance waterfront area. The area is very nice and offers some nice restaurants with a good view of the water. The decor and presentation inside of the restaurant is appealing. The oysters were a good choice to start, as well as the bread service. We tried the filet mignon, black cod and the burger. The steak was presented well and tender, it was slightly undercooked but still very good. The black cod was impressive and very tasty. The burger was tasty but unfortunately well undercooked, it was ordered medium-well and arrived medium rare. We did not send it back but this was our only issue with our dining experience. Our server was friendly and attentive. Outside of the undercooking, a nice choice in dining.

5 /5 Mariah McHolland: We love this place. Yes, it’s on the pricier side, but the food is worth it and the location is nice, being right on the water. The calamari was cooked perfectly, so much flavor and very tender. The chowder was also delicious, just wish the pieces of seafood in it were bigger and more noticeable. The salmon and filet were cooked perfectly. Very tender, juicy and full of flavor. I loved the Sole more than the tenderloin on my dish. The tenderloin was cooked exactly how I wanted, but there was no flavor to the meat itself, apart from the chimichurri. The potatoes are a little underwhelming for the side, could use some butter. Overall, it was delicious and worth it.
