Also, if you have a Costco around you, check out their gift certificate area. I bought a $100 giftcard to El Gaucho for $75. Sweet deal.

Nice looking spot....In appearance, reminds me of a spot in LA/Malibu called Moonshadows. Don't go overboard with the Pinot though, that water is cold this time of year.

I'll be avoiding the water, for sure. I jumped into 37 degreee weather in Alaska one night, not a good feeling.

It's downtown Seattle on the water. It's an offshoot of El Gaucho Steakhouses. I think they're only in the NW. But the one in Portland is awesome because they have a cigar lounge in it as well. They did in Seattle until they banned smoking indoors here. It's a great place to go with the guys and sip some whiskey and smoke a stogie.

They do. But if it's Seafood I'm after, I'm not going here. This is a good steak place.

I prefer Dukes Chowderhouse, or Anthony's Homeport, or McCormick's and Schmidt's for Seafood. All spendy places, but so worth it.

Yeah, Kinda. It's basically on Puget Sound, but Lake Union and Lake Washington are closeby.

Now I'm confused. Remember, you're talking to someone that knows the area really well. If it's the place I'm thinking of, it's where the seaplanes take off and land in Lake Union and all the houseboats are for sale. Kind of South Lake Union is where I'm thinking.

Just out of curiosity, how much do you anticipate spending there for a dinner for you and your lady?

Look up the Address if you'd like 2505 First Ave, Seattle. It's off of 99.

Well, I bought a $100 giftcard for $75. I'm planning on dropping about $150. Depends what we do for wine.

Now I'm really confused. So the place in the picture in your OP isn't at all the same as the place you're actually going?

That is kind of close to the place I'd be working if I take that job in Seattle.

Sorry. I posted the El Gaucho address, not Aqua.
