    Fish and chips Sahara desert style.
    Billy D.

    Huh. My detailed lengthy review disappeared. I don't think I have it in me for a do over. Rockfish Grill wasn't that remarkable for second go-round. My fish n chips was mediocre. The fish was dried out not even the tartar sauce could help it. It was also too expensive. We spent over $100 with tip for both of us. That is becoming all too normal these days.

    Shrimp Etouffee

    I am a listener of KISM FM 92.9 and I heard that there was an event to help the homeless. Basically, eat at participating restaurants and part of the proceeds would go to help the homeless. One of those restaurants was The Rockfish Grill in Anacortes. I've been here before and usually order their pizza. It's very good pizza and I enjoy it a lot! However, today I chose to eat their Etouffee. My wife and her family are from Northern Louisiana and she introduced me to Crawfish Etouffee and it has been a favorite of mine ever since. The Rockfish Grill makes their Etouffee with shrimp. Almost as tasty as the crawfish version when done right! The Rockfish Grill definitely does it right! They have an island of rice sitting in the middle of a bowl of the Etouffee that is chock full of andouille sausage, shrimp, onions, and other bits of goodness. The wait staff was very friendly and I was able to keep myself entertained by checking out all the wonderful decor and watching one of the tv's around the bar. I always enjoy my visits to The Rockfish Grill and look forward to my next visit.

    Great downtown local bar with a welcoming ambiance. Plenty of street parking and has a good sized outdoor area. Our server was a sweetheart and he did awesome. Their cocktails are a great deal and delicious. I had the peach one, forgot the name but it was yummy and gave me a good warm feeling. We ordered the fish and chips, bowl of clam chowder and calamari. Calamari 3/5- was soggy where it coated the squid ring and crunchy at the small edge pieces. Wouldn't get again Bowl of clam chowder 4/5- it had bacon and that was a nice touch to it. Added a great crunch and a surprise of salty with the creamy. It was flavorful and filled with corn, potatoes, little bit of clams and bacon. Fish and chips 4/5- didn't wow us but it was solid! Amazing crunch and the fish wasn't dry. Super flaky.

    Taproom and restaurant was a great stop for lunch. We were exploring Anacortes and a local brewery with food sounded perfect- beers for the boys, seafood for everyone! We started with an order of perfectly fried calamari- the boys & I devoured the dish easily. The boys ordered a flight of beers to share and those too were gone quickly. I ordered a cocktail- a huckleberry lemonade smash (or something with huckleberry and bourbon)- very good too, not too sweet surprisingly! Service was great- our server was quadruple sat and we were the 3 table in and she was stellar about communication! John went with a hearty burger- bacon, cheese, beef- man, man, man, man- lol. Robert ordered the crab-mac & shared a bit with me- good gracious it was good! Eddie and I both had a bowl of chowder & everything was delicious. This was the quintessential, brewery by the water- with great food! Massive bar, plenty of seating, even and outdoor patio. I would return next time we visit the boys in a heartbeat- John and Robert thoroughly enjoyed their beers! Thank you to Heather for the fabulous service!!!

    Rockfish Grill offers hearty pub fare, with friendly service, and ample seating both indoors and out. In addition, the restaurant offers a regular schedule of live music and seems to have become a local a local institution. There are many photos and posters displayed throughout the building commemorating past performances. There is a large menu offering a wide variety of dishes, and the waitstaff are well-versed in the ingredients and various options for each of the dishes. I ordered halibut fish and chips, as well as an artichoke and shrimp dip with tortilla chips. I was surprised by how hearty the halibut pieces I was served were, they were quite large and a great value. The fish was tender, and the battered exterior was crunchy and buttery. With friendly staff, ample seating, and generous servings, Rockfish Grill serves as a safe bet for a night out in Anacortes.

    I believe our waiters name was Stephen... Let me just tell you. My entire family eats out so much they are incredibly picky and always find something to knit pick. Out of the 8 of us not one single thing was less than stellar. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food and experience. So incredibly yummy. We were there for the state football tournament and Stephen was THE only welcoming person in that town. If we ever went back (which truthfully everyone was so horrible to us in town... I doubt we would....) but if we did, it would be my first and only stop. Best service and food hands down!

    Rockfish Grill was so wonderful. The fish tacos were light and flavorful. The oyster shooters were MASSIVE! The passion fruit mule was the best - full of flavor and packed a little punch. Our waitress was kind and efficient. The bar tender was really on his game. I also loved the restaurant vibe overall - lots of fun pieces of artwork. I would definitely come back.

    This might well be the best meal I Have had in the Pacific Northwest. We had the soup special tomato with Italian sausage and let me tell you best soup I have ever had. We had the coconut prawns with the most amazing sweet jalapeño sauce that was delicious. The crispy ghost pepper fish tacos are so amazingly good I can't express how appreciative my taste buds are!! Just an amazing experience all around thank you rockfish grill!!! The waitress Siri (sp) was amazing!!

    Clam chowder bowl
    Emily B.

    Excellent waffle fries! The fish is crispy and yummy. The chowder isn't thick but it's very tasty. The crab mac and cheese was extremely tasty too! Overall we are very impressed.

    Fried food at a bar-came out fast but it wasn't really busy. The bartender wasn't very engaging but that's fine.

    The Brown Lantern Alehouse

    Brown Lantern is a classic tavern and ale house. They have a large bar, dining tables in the bar…read morearea and a separate family section that is less "lively." Features a full bar with cocktails and a great beer selection. Ambiance is fantastic, with dark wood and interesting lighting and decorations. I'll be honest - it smells like dirty bar from time to time, so I'd say cleaning could be improved. The menu has something for everyone. Their burgers are awesome, the tater tots are creative and delicious. I tried the steak tacos the recently and they were very tasty, although the tortillas were slightly over toasted, resulting in a bit more crunch than you'd expect. Service is usually good. The bartenders handle table service, so you could end up with more than one person waiting on you rather than having a dedicated server. This can result in slower service times when it's busy, but that's the nature of the beast.

    Is there any service or were we just being ignored? ‍…read more Walked in, waited around for a bit while the staff did their thing. There are no signs that said "please wait to be seated" or "seat yourself" either, but after waiting a bit we thought we'd seat ourselves and the service would come to us. That never happened, so this feels like we were being ignored. It's unfortunate though, because it seemed like a chill place to grab some food. But this isn't how you run a business because after waiting around for 15 mins we left. Probably won't be stopping by again.
