The town of Anacortes has a population 17K+ the inside of the diner is full of world globes like the kind you see in grammar school. The owner collects them. There's one bathroom which is a good size but you have to wait in line and look at all the posters of performers and shows that's come to the area. I ordered the Dad's smash burger. Hubby thought his fried chicken burger was moist. My smashed beef patty was good as well as the bun. But it had lettuce only and way too much mustard in it. It also took 30 mins for our food to arrive. I enjoyed the shoestring fries. Wait staff was nice and pleasant.

Normally I have cheese removed since I am not a big fan, but I left it as was and it totally made the dish. Okay, now I can calm down and write the rest of my review. It was soooooo good! I wish it wasn't a 1.5 hr drive from me. The truffle fries were amazing...that coming from someone who doesn't really enjoy fries. Perfectly good, not very greasy, perfect thickness and full of flavor. Best truffle fries I have ever had. But eat them before they are cold, since they weren't very good cold The bummer was the Seafood Linguini. All of seafood included was overcooked so it was hard and rubbery, and the linguini sauce did not have much flavor. We probably should have asked to have it be re-made which we never do, but it was that bad!! Service was amazing! I wish I could remember the server name. Short hair with top color pink. She was friendly and very knowledgeable and helpful. She seemed to like her job and I would love to have her as our server everywhere we eat. She was there when we needed her and was brief but the perfect amount. If I owned a restaurant, I would recruit her and pay her more to get her.

Chock full of delicious, tender Dungeness crab with a perfectly crispy exterior and great seasoning , add a squeeze of Lemon & paired with a crisp white wine they were awesome. For our mains, we had good sized portions of the seafood linguine and the blackened grilled shrimp with poblano grits. The seafood linguine was filled with a wide variety of fresh seafood, including salmon, white fish, clams, shrimp, mussels, & scallops & was a tasty version of a classic. Now for the shrimp & grits: While the shrimp were cooked perfectly, tail on, and were accompanied by a generous side of steamed kale and garlic, unfortunately, I was not a fan of the grits. I don't love it when grits come out with shredded Parmesan on top that hasn't even melted. I did not personally care for the texture as They were very gritty, spicy & not as creamy as I would have liked... should have ordered the crab au gratin that everybody was raving about! The menu has a nice variety of brunch type items, salads, sandwiches, including a grilled cheese or a tuna melt and burgers. Solid Washington wine list , beers & a very innovative cocktail lineup. Everyone recommended the crab au gratin, so next time! Service was friendly & efficient.

Thankfully, it was within the last half hour of their business day (9/16/26)! This came a recommended detour from The Homie. He had stopped here with friends on a previous road trip last June 2025. There's onsite seating, drive up ordering, or takeout. Orders & payments are taken at the main counter and a number is provided. We received our order in pretty good time despite the last minute rush before closing. I was a bit ambitious and only took a few hungry bites from my double cheeseburger and a few spoonfuls of my large chocolate/vanilla swirl soft serve. The remainder kept well in the ice chest and was polished off the next day after a brief nuke. The soft serve was frozen overnight and tasted great also the next day. The Homie devoured his double cheeseburger and the large hot fudge milkshake on the drive home from Hwy 20 & I-5 South. Great menu variety and quality, plus support a local indie (since 1964)!

The fish and chips were good and had a nice crisp breading. The fried were battered and fluffy inside. The sandwich had a good ratio of meat to bread and a nice au jus. I ordered the lamb burger with the mango chutney on the side in case it had chili pepper in it. They had to take an extra minute to fix my burger because they accidentally put the chutney on them, at which point I did clarify that I can't eat chili. It arrived and looked nice with a very fluffy bun. First bite in I could tell there was some kind of chili in the lamb patty (which was unexpected as it's a Mediterranean inspired dish with feta). I couldn't eat the rest of it so I paid $22 bucks for some thick soft onion rings. This place does not offer for you to choose your burger cook temperature either, which is a little odd since their patties are very thick 1/2 pounders. This burger was definitely overcooked and very dry. The mango chutney tasted good but really did not go with the Mediterranean taste of the dish. I'm sure my family would return here and rate it 4 stars, I probably won't return and I rate it 2 stars (so I am splitting the difference here).
