Madrona Bar & Grill has excellent views right on the water, making it perfect for a nice day on the patio or even a rainy day spent inside overlooking the bay. The Salmon Tacos were really good -- each came with a nice piece of grilled salmon. The Cheesesteak was decent, not the best I've ever had, but that's fair given we're a long way from Philly. The beer selection was also solid and paired well with the meal. Overall, it's a great spot for lunch or a sunset visit when you're on Orcas Island -- good food, great views, and a relaxing atmosphere.

Crab Bisque

Dropped in for lunch. Service was quick and checked in regularly. The views from the dining area are spectacular. Food came quickly and was good. Bisque was my favorite but everything else was good as well.

The views are unbeatable at Madrona Bar & Grill! I heard great things about the halibut fish and chips but unfortunately they were out of it when we visited so we opted for the cod fish and chips- which were amazing as well. Our food came out quickly and hot. The menu has many options for wine, cocktails, and beers in addition to the great food!

Amber ale

I came for lunch. The place was practically empty so I was able to sit outside no problem! Absolutely stunning views. Decided to have a burger. It wasn't the best I've ever had. The atmosphere and vibes definitely a factor in things tasting good. Hot and fresh. Cooked a bit well for me. Despite that I enjoyed my lunch. The amber style beer was refreshing too. I finished inside with a smaller pour of a cider. Holly the bartender, hostess and waitress was super friendly and sweet. Street parking was a bit tricky. But with patience I found a close up spot. Happy eating. SYOY.

We came here for some drinks and appetizers. We sat at step top by the bar. Mason the bartender was so knowledgeable and attentive. We enjoyed the spectacular view and some delicious drinks. Very historic building. Would definitely come back.

Fresh fruit margarita.. sucks!

Party of 2, walk in and only 1 other person in the place and yet it was a big deal to find us a table. Host sat us while talking on the phone (not a deal breaker), but the fruit margarita tasted like orange juice and not drinkable (in my opinion) so I ordered a beer not once did either server ask us about the margarita sitting full on the table. We ordered fish and chips which was not bad but, also nothing to rave over. This place had a very nice view and I'm sure visitors probably would be the most frequent customers. In my opinion skip this place there are other places w/a view and better food and drinks.

A solid 3.5 We were able to walk up and get reservations for a table of 4 and come back in 25 minutes. So that was pretty awesome. Our server was very friendly and pretty attentive so definitely no complaints there. Great views from the restaurant but from where we were sitting there was also a few flies buzzing around. So that was not the most pleasant. We ordered a few appetizers and I'd definitely say pass on the oysters and hummus. The hummus was thick and chunky and not very palatable. A delicious hummus should be creamy and spread easy. The oysters were alright but were just missing some seasoning or something. The coconut shrimp was the best appetizer but nothing I haven't had anywhere else. For my drink I ordered a double fruit margarita and it was okay. A little heavy on the citric side so I didn't finish. Now for my main course, I went with their nightly special which was a coconut curry mussel and this was most definitely a 5/5. It was creamy, slightly spicy, packed full of flavor and the mussels were sweet and fresh. The dish was everything I was hoping for. It absolutely made up for everything I lacked in the appetizers. My husband ordered the portabella burger and I must say when that came out we were all slightly disappointed about how small the mushroom was and my husband noted that his mushroom wasn't juicy and was a little on the dry side. Overall a decent experience for the limited options on the island.

Wine, San Juan beer, coconut shrimp, and fish tacos

Food with breathtaking views of the sound and other islands! The beer and wine were so fresh, and the waitress was super sweet. The salmon tacos had really fresh fish, pineapples, and guacamole, and the coconut shrimp was delicious

Made a pit stop at this restaurant on our visit to Orcas Island with family. It is located on the waterfront. Very nice view. Cozy and relaxed atmosphere. There's a bar you can sit and dine at as well. We ordered tacos, burger, steak and fries. Everything tasted good and fresh. Our server was nice. We enjoyed dining here.

Every time I called or showed up, the place was closed, or the kitchen was closed. Simple fix, establish hours and note them online.

Had high expectations that didn't deliver…read more My girlfriend and I came to stay the night on Orcas Island, and this was the first restaurant we tried. Having made reservations beforehand, we were really excited to try this place out. The servers who greeted us were really nice. The restaurant had a beautiful dark interior that gave off a cozy steakhouse vibe. They even offered to take my coat, how nice of them! Despite the hospitality, the food did not really live up to expectations. I got the birria, and while it was okay, it definitely wasn't worth the price I paid. My girlfriend's scallop crudel was almost as pricey and it did not even fill her up. I believe the bill for our whole meal (including a mocktail) was over $80. This was definitely not worth the price point paid for, considering that we were not fully satisfied with that meal. Regardless, many thanks to the Monti staff for having us.

First visit and I'm smitten. Great decor and service, but the meal really distinguished itself…read more First course was a fennel shaved salad with exceptional flavor - don't be dissuaded by the reference to anchovy dressing - it works magnificently and nothing overpowers. The chicken liver with summer tomatoes was magnificent, even if they needed an extra slice of sourdough to finish the plate. The star was the roasted pork belly. I've had many in my day but this was the crown jewel of belly's - succulent, tender inside and crispy edges, and the flavor was off the chart delicious. Rigatoni with lamb did not disappoint and pasta was cooked to perfection. Saved room for chocolate mousse and it was excellent and not too sweet. Wine pairings supported the wonderful meal. I look forward to returning and trying all the dishes we didn't select. This place has it over Rosario and Madrona. Your wallet will be lighter but not unreasonably so.
