I ate here for the first time about a week ago and it was one of the worst dining experiences I have had in seattle. We started with Calamari, which was cooked awfully and saved only by the quality of the Calamari itself. Then we ordered a couple of teas, mine was flavored with a syrup a fact which they failed to mention on the menu. The syrup made the tea incredibly sweet and because of this I couldn't drink it. My fiance ordered fresh Halibut which so bland she felt like there was no incentive to eat it, not only that but there was no salt on the table the one ingredient that might have saved the meal. I ordered Sea scallops which were okay at best, I really wanted to like them but in the end they too were too bland. The nail in the coffin that has convinced me to never go back to this restuarant was the horrible service. Our waitress left our waters empty for upwards of ten minutes, she was never around and when we did not order alchoholic beverages she was scoffed. Unfortunately the bill was so high that when I gave her my minimum tip it was still a decent amount of money. Sadly the only reason I would ever go back to Ray's is for the view and may be a cappuccino, or I may just be satisfied taking up space.
This may be a great date place, but there is much better food in seattle for the money.
Pros: Nice view of the sound.
Cons: Bad food, bad service, bad experience.
