I am lactose intolerant and I was a little concerned, but the peanut butter crunch ice cream was so good and amazing. Oh my goodness such the best ice cream I've ever tasted without lactose. I would definitely go again. read more

I go to Copper & Salt regularly and have sampled their breakfast, brunch and dinner menu. It's at a gorgeous location, facing the Ruston Way waterfront. The interior is modern and clean. The staff are always friendly. The food can be a little inconsistent at times, but always take feedback and makes things right. I'd say my favorite time to stop in is during breakfast. I used to always get the avocado toast but absolutely love the pork belly hash! The potatoes and pork is seasoned perfectly for a lovely hearty meal! For dinner, I def recommend the scallops! It's a beautiful light dish that couples well with any appetizer of your choosing! read more

We were really in the fence about this place because of its hot and cold reviews. Some people love it, some people don't. I don't know how people don't. View? One of the best you can find. Food? Delecious and very hearty portions, service? Five star. I will say we didn't get any pasta dishes, so I can not comment on that portion, but our food was fantastic. One disservice to this restaurant on Yelp is the lack of good pictures. I'm fixing that by putting up our food and drinks! Everything looked and tasted amazing! Our server was one of the best I have ever had! We even got a congrats on our dessert. We will be back to try the pasta, but if it's half as good as our meal was this time, I can confidently say we will be repeat customers for years to come. Do yourself a favor, grab a reservation, and stop on in. read more

This place has an amazing location! And the breakfast was awesome, especially the mimosa selections.

I want to give Copper and Salt 4 stars for the food however, it was the service that left a bad taste in my mouth! Coming from the service industry, I can excuse bad service for lack of staff on a busy shift. This was not the case. I went in this evening to enjoy dinner and drinks with a friend. We sat at the bar. The bar was not busy and fully staffed with 3 bartenders! It took some time for us to receive menus and after they were given, we sat there for a long while waiting for our order to be taken. Meanwhile, a couple came in sat down next to us, received menus, glasses of water and the bartender took their order as we continued to wait. We had to flag down the bartender to place our order and once our drinks were delivered, he never checked on us after that. A lovely waitress delivered our food and that was it. No one asked if we were ok, if we wanted another beverage or water. We finally flagged down another bartender for water. It wasn't until we were finished with our meal and ready to check out that another bartender checked to see if we were ok. By then we were just ready to leave. Truly disappointing as we were planning to stay and enjoy another round of drinks and order dessert. Since we were being ignored we decided to take our business across the way to another restaurant. I have never been so disappointed with service and it takes a lot for me to give a bad review! DO BETTER! read more

Food was very good! Breakfast was great And the cocktails were fun. I will be returning to try the dinner Today. Not a bad seat in the place. Parking can be a little tricky. read more

Amazing food. This is a great breakfast/brunch spot. The view is beautiful. The espresso drinks available are great.

We were lucky enough to get seated next to the window and had an amazing view! The drinks were pretty good and the portion sizes of the food was good too. My only downside was that our server was not very attentive. Overall my experience here was good read more

My wife and I had dinner here to celebrate her birthday. The food was very good and ample portions. I had lamb chops and she had home made pasta with the short rib. Both dishes were good. The service was good. For an upscale restaurant they could have provided table linen on the patio tables. Good view of Mt Ranier. We returned for a Sunday brunch menu and the place was extremely busy. We did wait over 30 minutes for our food. However, it was obvious that the managers were working hard to serve the guests timely. Will be back. Wife wants table cloths. read more

6$ for a cup of black coffee. Avocado toast with so little avocado I don't think you can legally call it avocado toast. My brioche French toast was..ok but, can I get some syrup? Oh, it doesn't come with syrup? Then why did the woman next to me get syrup w hers. The food is ok. But 21 dollars for toast that is wearing avocado perfume is a little steep. 19$ for 3 pieces of dry brioche French toast and 12$ for 2 cups of SUPER MID coffee is kinda crazy. 5/10 would not recommend read more

So good! We ate here 4x while staying at the hotel and every meal was spectacular! View is also great! Then take a nice stroll after your meal enjoying the water. read more

Copper and Salt is great place to go when you want to impress and show off the beauty of Commencement Bay and South Puget Sound. The menu seems smaller than expected but thoughtfully planned to appeal to a traditional range of preferences. I've been there a few times and always found the food to be very good. The staff have always been friendly and professional and the aesthetic is thoughtfully designed to be traditional and contemporary without being alienating. read more

This was our second time coming here. We were greeted as we walked up by one hostess who said they didn't have tables, so we walked away and noticed there were reservations available every 15 minutes on open table, so we asked her why they had reservations but no tables. Another hostess walked up with an attitude and told us even with a reservation we would have to wait anyway due to not having enough tables. So we decided to go to the bar to grab drinks while we waited. The second hostess came up to us a few minutes later saying our table was ready so we figured we could have our bill sent to our table but she stopped us and with an attitude said my husband had to stay to pay while I went with her to get the table. We should have just left when we first got told there were no tables but didn't. Our server made up for the rude hostess because he was absolutely amazing and friendly. I got the meatballs which were very good and my husband the octopus (which he said was the worst octopus he's ever had, said they were super rubbery and undercooked). We both got the bolognese for our meal which was ok, it wasn't anything to write home about but it wasn't bad. I don't think we will come again just by the hostess being rude and the food being subpar. read more

We went here today for the first time (we are local) the ambiance is absolutely stunning and the lemon ricotta & blueberry pancakes were the perfect mix of soft on the inside with a light crisp on the outer layer. 100000% recommend! Our server was very attentive and gave us each suggestions that didn't miss! read more

Food was not good at all, I mean for the price I expected something decent. Service and view was good, I'll give them that. You're paying for over priced, bland, frozen food. The valet service was terrible, we stood there for about 5 minutes before Being acknowledged by the vale staff who would greet people coming in, it was a little surprising.We won't eat here again. read more

Food was really good. Flavors i didn't expect. But we order an appetizer entree and dessert and had no complaints. Even my 7 year old liked it and she's picky. I believe the manager maybe owner was walking around and was respectful and made sure our service was exceptional! I would def go back. read more

Service good. Food not do much. Cold French Toast, Cold potatoes (and neither were good) and warm eggs Benedict. Won't go back.

Pepperdelle was underwhelming, with its horseradish sauce being on the sour side (sour cream taste). Be prepared to ask for extra salt or pepper. Mushrooms was a fun match for the pasta. Texture was pleasant. The chocolate tart had salted caramel - too salty for me - and was a bit difficult to eat with spoons - ask waiter for fork and knife instead. The crust is a bit tough. Overall enjoyed our evening. Waiter was nice and helpful. Would come again. read more

This was my 2nd visit, first time for dinner. The service was great, they have complimentary valet for dining as well. The ambience is just a bit cold and dark to be inviting and warm. The appetizer (speck) was very tasty but we were left wanting more baguette. We both had the bolognese which was cooked perfectly. We ordered a side of the roasted carrots but sadly they came well past the entrees and were overcooked and soggy. While we enjoyed the food, the price point is just a bit high for what you get. Location probably pays a part, however we won't be back. read more

This was our first time dining with Cooper and Salt, this won't be our last. We had an amazingly friendly and attentive waiter. He knew the menu well and provided us with excellent recommendations. This is a semi-fancy restaurant, yet no need to be dressed up. We ordered, focaccia bread, Cesar salad, Papadelle with short rib, rib eye and bread pudding. Let me say this dinner did not disappoint. Well seasoned, well plated and overall delicious read more

I would come here more often if it wasn't so overpriced. The restaurant itself is beautiful. The service was fast and very friendly. I loved the Ruston Revival cocktail and really really loved the ricotta toast! I was hoping to get the sea bass as I had seen it on the website menu, but it turned out they had halibut instead. Mine was slightly overcooked, and the beans it came with were nothing special. My husband had the lasagna and said it was a little dry and could have used more sauce and cheese. If I come back I think I will stick to drinks and appetizers only. read more

This place has potential, with a great location on the water, and terrific views. However, the menu and food leave much to be desired. The hosts at the front had to walk a nearly empty restaurant twice to figure out where we would be seated: we had reservations. We found the menu to be quite sparse, but both ordered the beet salad. The dressing did not deliver. When you put farro in a salad, you need to dress generously. It was lacking in seasoning (ironically a bit of salt would have helped) and overall flavor. The pappardelle was meant to have short ribs and mushrooms. No short ribs were seen, loads of mushrooms. Pasta was good, but stingy on one of the ingredients. Halibut was also severely under seasoned and a bit much on some spicy oil that did not hide an unpleasant fish odor. The broccolini was undercooked, had absolutely no seasoning, and tasted like propane from a gas grill. Inedible. Waitress didn't ask me if they were ok, just if I'd like a to go box. We won't be going back. read more

Let me say the service here is 5 stars and that's why it gets 5 stars. The bacon is done well, not rubbery. I thought the biscuits and gravy was kind of small. I'd give the biscuits and gravy 3.5 stars. The avocado toast I had a wasn't bad, I'd give it 4 stars. The coffee was 5 stars. Whatever that coffee is, I guess I should ask. So here's my biggest fault. The Bloody Mary tasted like a virgin Bloody Mary. It is definitely not worth $13. I would normally get 2 at brunch like a gentleman. But the Bloody Mary was very weak to ask the least. I'd give the Bloody Mary 2.5 stars. However, my waiter was very attentive and not annoying. He seemed to have timing down to a perfection. My jacket fell and he caught it and put it on the chair next to me. The restaurant called me because somebody left a grey sweater and they thought it was possibly me. The service here is what makes this place 5 stars. On and the VIEW when you're in a booth on a window facing the puget sound anytime of the year is 5 stars. It's a prime location. Go for the service and the ambiance is my advice. read more

Don't let the fact that this is a hotel restaurant fool you! I'll start with the positive- The wife and I went out to Saturday brunch. Complementary valet parking while dining and a great view of the Puget Sound, check and check. The crowd wasn't an issue at 1030 and we were seated immediately. The breakfast food was really good. Quite possibly the best biscuits and gravy I've had! The eggs Benedict was excellent. Coffee was also very good. Would have been 5 stars if our server hadn't been so meh. We were seated and waited a full 15 minutes before she acknowledged us. It's one thing if they were busy, but this was not the case. Then she gave us a lame excuse as to why she was so slow. She seemed stressed for some reason. And we asked for hot sause and was given an empty bottle. We had to flag down the bar tender to get this taken care of because the server was again MIA. The food more than made up for the mediocre service though. We'll definitely be back for brunch in the future. Med read more

This is the second time I have been to this location. Went in for brunch on the weekends no line. Nobody at the bar. Amazing view from most tables. Light noise. Great ambience! Every dish was delicious. Every drink tasted perfect. The pork belly needed a little more flavoring, as it was a little bland for my friends liking. She added hot sauce and that made all the difference. Ate half of the lox's and enough to take home for two more meals. The two bartenders were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Go on Sundays at 11:30 and sit at the bar. You won't regret the food service order of you! read more

Beautifully located inside the silver cloud hotel on Point Ruston. The inside was beautifully decorated perfect for brunch with the girls, it is super photogenic. It was very busy and noisy which was not a problem for me but something to consider if you're looking for a calmer atmosphere. My girlfriends and I stayed for over two hours and did not feel rushed to leave. I tried the eggs Benedict and it was amazing I already have my next reservation booked for Mother's Day read more

I'll start with the bad: the blazing watermelon cocktail I had, tasted so synthetic, it basically made me feel quesy. So, steer clear! The middle banquet bench seats aren't very enjoyable/peaceful to sat at, so try and get yourself into a booth. The good: service is perfect. And the food is YUM. Definitely the highest quality food I've tasted thus far in Tacoma. Fresh, hand made pasta a lite gourmet beet salad all breakfast items Expensive, beyond a shadow of a doubt but if you want to feel classy while treating yourself, this is the place to do it. read more

Gorgeous setting that has a lot of potential! Came in a group of six primarily for the view. Lavender cocktail was enjoyed by multiple in our party, as was the mussels. Focaccia bread was average- would have preferred a nice crusted French bread or similar to stand up to the sauce! Ordered a variety of different pasta dishes- bucatini, fiorelli, and kid's mac and cheese. The mac and cheese tasted really off- creamy without being cheesy. The bucatini was an average plate of pasta that was missing something but hard to say what exactly. The fiorelli also tasted really flat- not enough sauce and very dry, even when eating with the burrata. The food alone was a bit Olive Garden, so we wouldn't come back for that alone, but maybe in the future for another go around if the menu changes to see if the food quality/depth has improved at all. There aren't many options for non meat eaters save for pasta, and only one seafood main on the menu. Service was average. We never didn't have what we needed, which was nice and very much appreciated when dining in a group. read more

I really want to like this place. The restaurant is beautiful and the service is amazing. The food is terrible.

Copper and Salt is a nice, clean, elegant establishment. You can sit outdoor and feel the breeze and see the ocean or you can dine inside with an oceanfront view, regular dining, or sit at the bar. We started the night with fried oysters, mussels, and focaccia. The mussels and oysters were amazing. The focaccia was a little too salty. For my entre, I had the PAPPARDELLE and it was not that good it has an acquired taste. However, overall I love the scenery and atmosphere of this restaurant. Also, there is so much you can do in the surrounding area as well. read more

Only choice of food attached to hotel. Mediocre. Often out of ingredients but they don't tell you when you order. So good received is not always what is described on menu. Wish they provided a room service option with joined hotel. Pain in the butt to walk down and pick up food read more

I would give this place 10 starts for my first experience here. My husband and I were not expecting to come here. We initially had intended to go to another restaurant close by. We ran into a friend that recommended this place. I was very much scared we would get treated badly because we were wearing casual clothes. We were greeted right away and the young lady at the front was very nice. Our waiter was super down to earth and answered our questions before ordering. He was very easy to talk to. BEST customer service I have ever had in a restaurant like this. No snobs here! There menu is limited but very tasty. Food is AMAZING! Great flavors and quality food. A great place for a date night. The views of the water and sunset are beautiful. You can see Mt Rainier from the windows. We will be going back! So happy we got to experience this place. Shout out to Dylan our server. You are one of a kind. Keep up the great work! It's people like you that makes people like me feel welcome at these kind of restaurants. It's because of Dylan I will be coming back! read more

Made reservations at Copper and Salt for a special celebration as had heard about the fabulous views. Unfortunately, didn't ask about the food. Service was AWFUL, food even WORSE! Waited 20 minutes for our Bloody Mary's and 25 to take our orders. Two of us ordered BLT's, ALL bread and ALL bacon fat! Truly disgusting. My aunt orderd the burger, bun was stale and dripping with condiments, like that might help with the dry/stale bun? She was only able to eat the patty. Grand total $115! Have called to complain to management two times and no reply. Will never recommend or return! read more

Full disclosure, we never even tried the food. First my party of 8 parked in the parking garage and went to the restaurant. Once we were all seated. We asked about validation and they said they don't do that. What? Literally every other business on the waterfront does. Instead we had to go move all our vehicles so their valet could park them. Ok, well inconvenient but ok. Next we sat down. Menu prices were expensive and portion sizes looked small. The ambiance of the restaurant was great. I happened to notice at the bottom of the menu that they WONT split checks for parties of 6 or more. Instead we were told to walk to the movie theater and get cash from an ATM because they do not have one on site. So we walk and lo and behold, the movie theater does not have an ATM. Luckily there was a bank not far away. So now I've left the restaurant twice in order to actually eat there. For what expensive prices and small portions? We ended up leaving. Simply not worth the effort. read more
