    The server mentioned how the special Kansas striploin steak was best medium rare which was super informative for ordering. She was able to recommend a steak that was optimized for medium well which was great. I had the 20oz rib steak and it was amazing. Baked potato could use more sour cream though. Also could have had cheese?

    Brunch was excellent - catfish with grits and bread pudding French toast were the perfect sweet and savory combo to share. Coffee was also very good. Beautiful bar and interior will be bringing me back for dinner.

    We eat at the Copperleaf often, and it never disappoints. The wait staff is experienced and has been working there for years. The food is always delicious and well prepared. This was our second Christmas Eve dinner, and it's strongly recommended.

    My wife, my grown-up daughter, and I enjoyed Christmas Eve dinner at Palisade. It was all great: fast service leading us to our table (reserved ahead of time), excellent food, great view of the marina and downtown Seattle, and the food was served at a slow speed so we could enjoy a 2 hour dinner with good conversation. The price was higher than what we usually experience when we go to a restaurant for dinner. However, the price was as expected on a Christmas Eve at a first class restaurant.
