    Our first time to Hook and Cleaver. The staff (especially the bartender) were fantastic, our drinks were elegant and delicious, and the food was fantastic. Nice views for a romantic evening. I recommend the pork chop!

    My girlfriends and I came here to celebrate a birthday over brunch and were lucky enough to snag a great corner table with a beautiful water view! The restaurant was fairly quiet during our visit, with no background music, giving it a calm and relaxed atmosphere. While we were hoping for a little more energy for our girls’ birthday celebration, the setting was lovely and perfect for a leisurely brunch. The food was good overall! I ordered the chicken fried steak and enjoyed it. The gravy was a bit thicker than expected and looked like it had been sitting for a while rather than freshly poured, but it tasted good! The drinks were definitely a highlight! Brunch pricing was reasonable, with a bottle of mimosas for $40 and cocktails ranging from $11–$15. They also had an impressive selection of Bloody Marys! We shared the bone marrow, which was a generous portion, but wished it came with a few more crostini. Our group of five ended up ordering two additional sides (three pieces each) to finish it. Service was great! Pete took wonderful care of us and even surprised our table with birthday ice cream, which was such a thoughtful touch and made our celebration feel special! One thing worth noting is that a 4.5% service charge is added to the bill. Overall, we had a really nice brunch and would happily return! The water views are lovely, the drinks are great, and the service was excellent. The atmosphere was just a little quieter than we expected for a girls’ birthday brunch, but it would be a great spot for a relaxed brunch with family or friends!

    Phil was a wonderful server who knew both the menu and drinks inside out. He gave great recommendations and checked in several times to make sure everything was satisfactory. It’s our second time there in the last month and is quickly becoming one of our favorite spots in Mukilteo.

    We decided to try their Wicked Wednesday BBQ promotion and we were not disappointed!! We had the pulled pork sandwiches, which were absolutely delicious. We had our choice of three classic BBQ sides. They had a good selection of regular and N/A beers. The portions were very generous, so we left feeling like we got good value for the price we paid. I wholeheartedly recommend Wicked Wednesday BBQ and this restaurant in general.

    This was mine and my wife's first time eating at this restaurant and we both really enjoyed everything about this restaurant. The food is really good here and tasty. The atmosphere was nice and relaxing and it was quiet . We watched a beautiful sunset and the restaurant overlooks the water . We will definitely be back to eat here again . We also had really good customer service . If you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Phil was our server and as per usual was a terrific server and host. I enjoyed my steak salad- and then cobbler with ice cream for desert. As usual Hook & Cleaver did not disappoint and has a wonderful meal.
