We came here because the wait at our original restaurant was too long. So glad we made that choice!…read moreIt's a small place with only counter seating and a slight Japanese feel. Cozy and comfortable. We ordered the Thai green curry with chicken, chicken rice bowl, tofu Banh Mi, and macaroni salad. The green curry and Hawaiian Mac salad get rave reviews! The tofu on the banh mi was unflavored and huge pieces (like a tofu block cut in half). It definitely needed some chili oil and togarashi. Mixed reviews on the chicken rice bowl because the rice was slightly dry and teriyaki sauce tasted like soy sauce but the cabbage salad was delicious. Overall, I would come back. I'd definitely get the Mac salad and try some of their other dishes.

Very popular & busy place; people are lined up before it opens & they can run out of food choices…read more Seasonal menu: ordered the karaage rice bowl, miso tahini salad with tofu & smoked short rib sando.

Whilst I've enjoyed their fresh cut sandwiches before boarding the ferry, the fourth star is awarded based solely on their carrot cake. Until eating Orcas Island Market's carrot cake, I thought the best carrot cake I'd ever eaten was served at the restaurant atop Sax Fifth Avenue, New York. Potential carrot-cake connaisseurs should note that cakes are rotated daily albeit carrot cake is not offered daily. If you visit in the day carrot cake is served, buy a generous slice and enjoy.

They had our favorite Finn River cider on tap, and for $5/pint?!? Yes please! They also had some yummy food available, but we had just eaten, so...next time for sure!!

I'm extremely bummed to leave such a low score. My wife and I had high hopes this would be the…read morehighlight of our time on the island (food wise). The high points: The views! The location is wonderful. Water views, downtown, so it's easy to get around. Parking was easy and even though we were early for our reservation they sat us right away. The mids- when I made the reservation online I made a note about it being a very special birthday for my wife. I did not expect anything for free, but I anticipated they might at the minimum say something. Not one person ever mentioned it. The lows. The service, well intended, but under trained. I won't list everything but the prime example is once the food was dropped the server did not show up again until we were almost done. The food was sub par. We had Miso glazed cod and French onion soup. We weren't happy with either. By the looks of reviews, our experience was not normal. We hope it is just due to going before the tourist season starts. No matter the reason, it was a big let down.

crèmecart sells handmade ice cream sandwiches out of a colorful, retro-themed cart. Today, we…read moreenjoyed PBJ sandies: salty peanut butter cookies with blackberry ice cream! Delicious! We stumbled across crèmecart at the Saturday Farmers' Market on Orcas Island. The two ladies who run the crèmecart, Michelle and Sommer, sound like they are regulars at the Saturday Farmers' Market, and other island locations as well. They rotate many cool ice cream flavors and cookie combinations. Their crèmecart Facebook page listed many enticing flavors, including: butter cookie and strawberry cheesecake ice cream; dark chocolate cookie and ginger ice cream; chocolate cookie with: salted caramel ice cream or coconut ice cream or chocolate ice cream; lemon cookie with: lavender ice cream or vanilla ice cream; gluten free almond cookie with vanilla or chocolate ice cream; and on July 4th, Apple Pie Ice Cream Sandies. How fun is that? So, like any food cart, crèmecart is seasonal, and moves around following the crowds. Thankfully, Orcas is a small island, and I promise you, they are worth searching for! Five Stars.

By the time I got there, lots of the ice cream sandwiches were sold out. All of the sandwiches are prewrapped and kept cold in the cart, so once they're gone... They're really gone. The cookie was nice and soft, but firm enough to stay together. The ice cream kept cold and didn't drip all over me. I was such a happy camper with my ice cream sandwich. I sure hope I run into this cart again!!

Service was very good, with a wonderful waitress that didn't need a note pad to take our order, and was attentive throughout. Asked for the Fried Clam Strips, and she was kind enough to warn that they weren't fresh but frozen. But they were fried, and exactly what I expected them to be. Burgers were quite large and tasty. I couldn't finish the Southwest Burger with bacon, but it was very good, and my wife devoured her Grilled Sourdough Burger. We both thought the Fries were excellent. Great selection of beers on tap. Don't expect much glamor, but you can expect a hearty, solid burger & fries!

Very impressive little store full of tons of stuff! Groceries, pantry staples, a small produce section, some premade deli food and cookies. I was looking for the bakery items. A previous review mentioned delicious homemade pastries. Finally as I choose a cookie and a salad for later I see them. A small pedestal plate with pastries. And on the countertop behind the register tons of croissants! I said, there they are! The two ladies working were not impressed. I asked for the flavors and the lady said, there is a menu right there. Ugh, not fully awake I realized a line had formed behind me. This is the spot to go before getting in a ferry. The sign was not clearly visible and I felt overwhelmed with the decision so I quickly decided on a raspberry almond. This is clearly a place for locals. Everyone knows what they want and where it is. Not super friendly vibes, but oh well. Took photos of my purchases back in my gorgeous villa LOL, watch for my next review. Super happy to discover this market! And I love a good market! Happy travels. SYOY!
