    Friday Harbor Seafood, right on the dock!
    Amber E.

    We stopped in for some fresh seafood for a picnic. We were hoping to get smoked salmon, but they were out, so tried the smoked salmon collar instead. It was ok, but a bit oily, and pricey for collar at $33/lb. We got some cooked spot prawns which were our favorite. Wasn't really a fan of the smoked scallops. Heard from folks on the dock that the shrimp cocktail is great, too. Definitely a cool spot on the dock to pick up some local seafood.

    Please don't support a place that is racist if you don't believe you are one. We experienced extreme racism here. We visited this place two times in a row, first day just to window shop where there were people picking their own crabs. For the second time, There were white people right in front of us who the lady here was so friendly to saying "Oh I made these smoked salmon this morning". When it's our turn we asked if we could picked our own crabs, she said no really rudely, and asked in an extremely loud screaming voice as if we were beggars "Do you still want these or not". We opened the bag and she picked dead crabs for us. There should be no place for racism and please act accordingly so you don't support this behavior.

    Lots of crabs

    My boyfriend and I wandered into Friday Harbor Seafoods while walking along the piers in the marina. We didn't buy anything, but we had a great time checking out the live crab and shrimp and oohing and ahhing over the fabulous looking seafood in the refrigerator case. They have interesting canned foods and other grocery items as well - marinades, rubs, etc. If we were looking to cook up some seafood on our trip, this would definitely have been the place to go!

    Fresh and plentiful seafood, if a little expensive. It was hard to find!! Go to the Marina and out onto the dock, then keep going. Then keep going some more!

    Dungeness crabs

    (4/16/2015) We were sightseeing around the port of Friday Harbor, came across the seafood market. They were working on picking Dungeness crabs for the cocktails. We got 1 cooked crab to go, just to try (we're from the East Coast). They cracked the legs and cleaned the body for us and bagged it up, just right for a picnic later. Also got a pound of smoked oysters from Taylor Shellfish Farm. It was all touch pricey (be a couple of dollars per pound), must be the overhead, Popeye came up for a visit while we were there and hung out until we left. Overall, we had a good customer service and experience.

    Thank you Brenda and team for the beautiful, tasty crab! They arrived well packaged and cleaned! Our party was a success.

    Not easily found online, this tiny market is the best retail purveyor in town. Premium pricing. Excellent service and selection.

    They had just cooked the Dungeness crab and were kind enough to crack it in half for us.

When you arrive there is a free parking lot out front. I'd definitely recommend placing a reservation before you arrive as it can get busy. The atmosphere is a laidback, on a farm, and hidden. When we arrived we checked in with the host and then were seated along the water. To start we ordered the seasonal panzanella salad which was an excellent to start the meal. Next we ordered several grilled oysters including the Herb Lemon Garlic, Lime Cilantro Sriracha, and Chipotle Bourbon. The Herb Lemon Garlic flavor was by far my favorite given the nice balance of flavors. If you are on San Juan Island you definitely need to check out this shell shack.

Ordering can take a minute when it's busy but the food comes up relatively quick- especially the non cooked options. It was a beautiful day so seating outside was perfect. We got oysters where we shucked it ourselves and it was a fun experience! They give you a demo and can help if folks are having trouble. The freshest oysters you're going to get. The mussels were so flavorful with their broth. I recommend getting their bread for it!

We got an assortment of things: salmon clam chowder, captains platter, steamed clams, crab cakes, grilled salmon, and the honey garlic shrimp. All of the seafood was really good. The chowder was super tasty, but there weren't many actual chunks of seafood. Lots of potatoes though. Clams were super fat and fresh. It comes with an herby oil dipping sauce, but I actually enjoyed them more plain. Captains platter was the perfect medley of batter and flavor and seafood. Everything was fried really well. Crab cakes were not bad, hit or miss in my group specifically. The grilled dishes were really good too, nothing really dry or fishy. Everything was well flavored. The service throughout was really attentive and kind. Makes the top floor patio a really great place to chill and watch the ferries pull in and out. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience here, especially given the mixed reviews on Yelp and Google. I'd definitely come back if I were in Friday harbor again!

    There is no better place for grilled fresh oysters! Also…read morethey know how to cook salmon without being dry. They add a simple secret sauce to both that really pops the flavor!

Our party of three visited for lunch at noon on a Thursday. Since we had a reservation, we were seated immediately at a lovely table right by the window. The atmosphere was great, and the staff were incredibly courteous and friendly throughout our meal. We initially thought about starting with some small plates, but we were so eager for seafood that we jumped straight into the entrees. We weren't disappointed: Bouillabaisse: This was our first time trying this dish, and it was the highlight for us. It was incredibly flavorful--exactly what we were craving. Spicy Prawn Mac and Cheese: It definitely lived up to its name! It wasn't "blow-your-head-off" hot, but it had a perfect, noticeable kick that really elevated the dish. Blackened Cod Tacos: These were fantastic. The cod was perfectly prepared and worked so well with the rest of the taco ingredients. We also enjoyed a couple of non-alcoholic drinks that hit the spot, though I'll admit that since I'm writing this a couple of weeks later, I forgot to snag photos or the specific names of the drinks! They also have a really nice patio area if you prefer dining outdoors. Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a great meal with a view, this place is a must-visit!

For the nature of the restaurant, we had hoped for our waitress to be more friendly and genuine. However, it felt like they just wanted to fulfill our order and be done. I ordered the South Sound Clams and Snapper Sandwich. Bathing in an umami-packed and rich Thai curry broth, the clams were tender and fresh with a bit of brine. Very good and shareable with one other person. The snapper sandwich wowed me! The bright escovitch and creamy avocado paired wonderfully with the snapper. Every bite was delightful. The house-made potato chips, however, were disappointing. They were thin, not crispy, and sticking to my teeth. If you can, substitute for fries or salad. Despite our subpar service, the delicious, well-priced food and beautiful scenery still make this the perfect date spot.
