Skookum Spirit Cigar Lounge - Shelton

2nd visit in 2 weeks . Last visit 5 stars and most amazing dinner in our 20 years coming. This one was good but not quite the 5 . I believe we had a new server . She was super friendly and attentive so we still tipped 20 . Ordered Iced Tea got tea no ice . Asked for butter for our veggies it was the cinnamon butter used for biscuits. We ended up throwing away the veggies and mashed potatoes which we also put the butter on. The dishes were all amazing as expected. The fries weren't the same and not as good but it happens. Still excited for our next visit.

We were thankful this restaurant was still open after we checked into the hotel late. Not busy as it was a Monday evening. Nice open restaurant with several tables and a large bar. Our waiter was very nice. The bacon wrapped poppers were incredible. We'd stop back in here again!

We decided to give this place a try for a late lunch. We were greeted right away and picked a booth to sit in. We ordered a bowl of clam chowder, two glasses of merlot and nachos to share. The chowder (which was good) and merlots came pretty quickly BUT the nachos took well over 45 minutes! These were horrible! The chips were all soggy and the whole dish was lukewarm except the bowl was hot. We had to dig around to find the chicken. It was bad and certainly NOT worth $16!! We gave up on waiting for our check (which never came) and just walked to the front counter to pay. I don't think we'll visit this eating establishment again.

Had late dinner on a non busy night i assume they weren't busy with very few tables occupied. My server was very nice and did do a great job taking care of us. We ordered loaded fries, jalepeno poppers, fried mushrooms, boneless chicken and build your own burger. Everything was delicious and fresh except the boneless chicken wings were not wings. They were more of a popcorn chicken rather than wings. Five were just the batter and the other were huge, but more batter as well. I mentioned it to my server and she was kind enough to take it off because she did agree to the size. To be honest I would not want to pay $13 for 5 popcorn chicken and 4 extra breaded bones less wings. The environment was just gloomy and attic feeling. Cleanliness was one of the star markdown. Recommend? Sure, why not!

Service was good but their steak options are horrible. Their chimirchurri steak was not worth the $32. It was so tough that I couldn't chew it. My husband had the surf and turf for$36 and he said his steak was chuck steak and was not tender either.
