Great service, food, and views of the Narrows Bridge at sunset. Quality food with a great selection of cocktails and drinks.

Scott provided 5-Star exceptional service from Start to Finish! From the moment we arrived, Scott made us feel incredibly welcome. He greeted us with a warm smile and immediately set the tone for a great dining experience. He was very attentive, offering drinks and suggesting the clam chowder, which was absolutely delicious. I appreciated that he was able to upsell without being pushy--a perfect balance! Scott's efficiency and genuine enthusiasm made our experience even more enjoyable. He was friendly, polite, and had a great sense of humor, which added to the overall positive vibe. As for the food, it was tasty. We ordered the cod and fries for $22, and it didn't disappoint. The atmosphere of the Boathouse was cozy, adding to the relaxed, enjoyable dining experience. If you plan on visiting Boathouse, definitely request to sit in Scott's section for an elevated experience and a few laughs along the way!

Outstanding service and staff, answering all our questions about their food and beverage choices. My lady had the salmon with smashed potatoes, and I had the smoked salmon Alfredo. Both were absolutely delicious. Paired with the nice marine themed Christmas decor, it all generated a wonderful night out with family.

Clam chowder was so good, we order another one! Appetizers were very good, better than our main dishes. Loud atmosphere but it didn't bother us.

The service from Shawna was absolutely fantastic! We had a last minute group and this restaurant was very accommodating. The menu is decently diverse and the views/location are beautiful. Shawna's energy, kindness, and personal touch made everyone's day and has us all still talking.

Happy Hour in the bar was nice. The Tieton Bourbon Peach Cider is wonderful. The Salmon dip was very good with the baguette and lemon, the calamari was tender and cooked perfectly along with the buttermilk onion strings and jalepenos plus I very much enjoyed the Popcorn Chicken with the hatch chili sauce. I was impressed with my experience here last week and am once again impressed with Happy Hour in the bar. In fact, I will say I haven't had a wonderful Happy Hour experience like this for years. Our waitress Stacey and her food suggestions were right on the money and she was also one of the nicest waiteresses I've had in years, too. The manager even stopped by to see how we were doing and that was a nice touch. If Boathouse 19 continues to impress me like it has the in my last two visits over the last week, it will become my favorite restaurant in the Tacoma area. I am seriously impressed and will return again soon for another woderful dinning or Happy Hour experience. Way to go Boathouse 19.

We got seated right by the window and it was gorgeous between all the rough weather lately. Our server (Kathryn) was a gem! She was so kind, attentive, and informative. She made the visit a 5 star visit for sure. We love their fried bread and butter pickles. The only place we've found that doesn't do the standard dill pickle. This was a great visit for an early dinner/snack stop.

Food was 10/10. Crab dip was probably the best I've ever get had. The fish sandwich was well breaded, not greasy and fresh. Service was 10/10 (Eva did great). We were really picky with wanting to watch the wnba finals and she allowed us to control one of the tv's. Also was not without water, she was very attentive. Ambiance is what you would get at a restaurant on the water, just wish the tv's were bigger. Overall great experience and will definitely be back!
