text: I managed to snag a reservation at McCormick and Schmicks using OpenTable last Saturday night even though it was packed When we arrived we found the hostess pretty much turning away anyone without a reservationnnThe hostess offered to let us sit faster in the bar area at a table or we could wait for minutes for a table outside the bar area We opted for the bar table For some reason after we were sat I received an email from OpenTable notifying me that my reservation had been cancelled by the restaurant which was annoying because you get points for making and keeping reservations via OpenTable which can later be redeemed for gift certificates Because they cancelled my reservation I did not accrue those pointsnnThat issue aside our server was Susan and she was fast and helpful The food came out quickly as expected since they had a fairly set Restaurant Week menu My crab cakes were excellent but my husband reported that his scallops were coldnnThe service and my crab cakes are what jack this review up to stars They got it about half right I cannot say that I would definitely return
