Woven Seafood & Chophouse - (Near Tacoma, WA)

5 /5 Genisis Stanley: We came in around 7:40 after calling at 7:30, a I was extremely worried since the website said they close at 8. I never want to be that guest who keeps the team late, so we made sure to ask multiple times if it was okay and that we wouldn’t be upsetting the kitchen by coming in close to closing. Every single person we spoke to especially the host team was incredibly kind and welcoming. They reassured us and made us feel completely comfortable about coming in. When we arrived, we were greeted with smiles and seated right away with edamame and water. I started asking for menu recommendations, and Kamalani went above and beyond! She shared several options, described each dish in detail, and clearly knew the menu inside and out. She wasn’t even our server, but she absolutely deserves recognition for her attentiveness and genuine enthusiasm. I’d love to see her as a server next time we dine here! Our server, Genevieve, was equally wonderful friendly, knowledgeable, and on point with her timing and recommendations. The entire team worked together everyone was attentive without being intrusive. The food itself was excellent. Our ribeye was cooked perfectly medium rare, flavorful, and definitely a high-quality cut. Every dish we ordered was balanced. A great sense of professionalism, warmth, and genuine hospitality. The Woven team really hit the mark tonight, and we’ll absolutely be back. The ribeye will definitely be our go-to every visit!

5 /5 Lisa Shimoi: Woven is a beautiful waterfront restaurant with a clean, bright ambiance and stunning views. It was a clear but very cold day when we visited, so the patio wasnt open, but the large windows still give you a gorgeous view of the water, which really sets the tone. When we arrived, the main dining room was closed, but the bar was open for happy hour, which worked out perfectly. Our server, Amit, was incredibly friendly and took my food allergies very seriously. I really appreciated how allergen-aware the entire restaurant is. You can tell they have strong systems in place and genuinely care about accommodating guests safely. The happy hour menu has a solid variety, including some great non-alcoholic options. I had a spiced pear drink mixed with Zilch NA wine, and it was so good. My boyfriend ordered the Yamaguchis Signature Hawaiian Martini and loved it. For food, we started with the pho-inspired pork ribs. They were incredible, packed with flavor and incredibly tender. The crispy fried pillows had great crunch, and the sauce tied everything together beautifully. We also ordered the teriyaki chicken skewers, which were okay flavor-wise but came out a bit cold. We ended up mixing them into the kimchi fried rice, which helped. Speaking of the kimchi fried rice...it was good, but if youre expecting spice because of the kimchi, it doesnt deliver heat. Not bad at all, just milder than expected. One standout dish was the miso-broiled eggplant. Amit recommended adding the fry bread, and that combination was perfect. I loved it so much I ordered extra fry bread to go. Overall, Woven delivered a great experience. Beautiful space, thoughtful service, strong allergy accommodations, and some truly delicious dishes. Id absolutely recommend it and cant wait to come back in the summer to enjoy the patio.

5 /5 Nick Werner: Awesome place to be for seafood and cocktails. Ive ordered the Brussels sprouts as an appetizer twice now, and they are second to none. The last time I went I tried the miso blackened cod, and no exaggeration, it was probably the best cod Ive ever had. Im definitely looking forward to exploring more of the menu and enjoying the outdoor seating when it warms up again. Id highly recommend getting a reservation before going, as it can get pretty packed around 6-7.

5 /5 Cody Harris: My wife and I had a wonderful experience on our first visit here. The atmosphere in the dining area was warm, and inviting. Our server Michael was one of the best servers Ive had in any restaurant for a while. He provided great menu details, offered suggestions and made sure we were checked on regularly. Ive got nothing but praise for the food we had. From appetizers to dessert everything was flavorful and balanced. Nothing was too sweet or too salty. We ordered the bread service and Brussel sprouts for appetizer. Our meal was the Short Rib and the Pork Collar. We definitely could not pass up the Okinawa Sweet Potato Brulee for dessert. When we go to a restaurant like Woven, we have high expectations to meet and the staff did not disappoint.

4 /5 Crystal Mc: My friend invited me here for my birthday. Zach was an amazing server - great personality, not overly attentive but there when we needed him, and he made a great recommendation for a wine pairing with my meal. We started with the spicy tuna roll. The flavors and textures were on spot - crunchy roll with spicy tuna and a tasty sauce underneath. The roll could’ve been tighter however, it was difficult to eat. I had their version of Paella, and I wouldn’t order it again. The seafood was wonderful and cooked perfectly, but the rice was not consistent in texture and was too moist and saucy. I also didn’t like that they overpowered the flavorings in the dish above what the seafood could tolerate. We finished with their homemade fruit sorbet, this night it was a mix of passionfruit guava and orange. It was good, but my friend said their mango sorbet was better. Other than the fact that there were toddlers seated near me and I was expecting a quiet atmosphere, the food was good, the views are always great on the Ruston waterfront and the service was spectacular.
