It's one of those places where the setting makes the meal better, and it's hard to beat for a relaxed morning in Friday Harbor and was the prettiest meal of our trip. I got the eggs benedict with smashed fried potatoes, plus the blueberry pancakes. The Benedict was very good, but the potatoes were easily the standout, SO crispy and delicious. Seriously, you have to get them. The blueberry pancakes were also great and made for a good sweet follow-up after the benedict. We both got the benedict plus we shared the pancakes which probably was too much food! Service was excellent too. Everyone on staff was super friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and everything came out smoothly. Great food, genuinely great service, and probably one of the best brunch settings you can get around Friday Harbor.

We stayed here and ate here twice. Brunch was good. Had the BLTA with no A since none came in on…read morethe ferry that morning. Wanted the bagel with lox but no lox came on the ferry. They offered to sub crab but went with the BLT. It was delicious. If you love bacon this is for you. A ton of bacon on it which is very delicious. The best we've had in a very long time. Dinner was decent. The angus burger was delicious with great fries. The flatbread was nothing worth ordering again. Was more like a pita with lots of sauce and under melted cheese. But the crab cake appetizer was just delicious. Beautiful harbor view on the dock with heaters if it gets cold. Wonderful servers. Enjoyed our time there

Monday night dinner in early June meant that they weren't too busy…read more We both ordered the steak salad-one rare and one medium. The medium one came out fine. The rare steak was, at best, medium well. Pointed out to server the over done steak which she agreed was not correct. Ten minutes later a more rare steak came out. Odd that it took longer to get the replacement steak than the original orders. Anyway, the steak and balsamic dressing salad were average. The steak was gristly and small. It would have been nice if someone like the cook or server had actually looked at what they made to ensure that it was done correctly. Lastly, the server never came back to the table to check on our meal after dropping off the food. This restaurant seems to be one of those that survives on tourism volume and not quality of food. There are several others nearby, including the Downrigger, that are better.

We stopped in for dinner without reservations. We couldn't get a table outside but did get a table…read moreby the window. It turns out that we had a better table as people outside were cold! Several people were given beach towels by staff to wrap up in to keep warm. Whew! Our lack of planning actually turned out to be a blessing in this case as mid-September nights can be quite chilly! My husband wanted an appetizer and we mentioned that I have a daily intolerance. The server mentioned that they can prepare the mussels, which my husband mentioned, in a coconut milk and red curry sauce like what they do for clams. We really enjoyed them! We soaked the bread in the broth after eating the mussels to enjoy as much as the delicious broth as possible! I decided to order sesame crusted ahi appetizer and a side salad with shrimp as my "entree" and my husband immediately knew he was getting the lemon herb risotto with crab. He enjoyed every bite of it - including the kale!!

We stopped by on June 16, 2026, after an enjoyable whale-watching excursion and were looking…read moreforward to having dinner here. Unfortunately, our experience ended before we ever made it to a table. When we arrived, the hostess was on the phone. We waited patiently, but there was no acknowledgment of our presence--not even a simple "I'll be right with you." Once she finished her call, we asked for a table for four. Rather than greeting us or explaining the wait in a courteous manner, she simply shook her head and informed us there would be a 40-45 minute wait. The issue was not the wait time; it was the complete lack of hospitality. Had we been greeted warmly and treated like valued guests, we likely would have waited. Instead, we were left with the clear impression that our business was neither wanted nor appreciated. We chose to leave immediately and spent $200+ at another restaurant where we felt welcomed. While I understand that busy restaurants often have long waits, there is no excuse for poor customer service and basic discourtesy. Based on this experience, I will not return, nor would I recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area.

Crab tots! Deep fried nonetheless. What kind of crazy thing will folks come up with next? And…read morewhen they do, can I please be invited over for dinner? This was the second place we went to that had crab tots on the menu so we threw in the towel and ordered them. Tots? There is nothing tot-like about these deep-fried balls of crabby goodness that showed up at our table. Shaped into balls, these are essentially crab cakes served with two dipping sauces. One sauce was sweet chili sauce and one was a spicier cilantro sauce. Both were very good and we managed to eat most of these before our dinners arrived.

Immaculate views downtown on the water, quality food, and kind and welcoming service…read more We had to pay a $100 deposit to hold a table for our group of 5, but so glad we did (you get it back of course). The freshest oysters, quality seafood of all sorts, great fries, good drink options (including non-alcoholic). In particular we really appreciated the service. She heard us talking about ferry times and checked in about our time needs without us asking, allowed my friend to charge her hearing aids since we couldn't at the camp site, didn't judge us for coming in in less than casual biking gear, AND served some bomb eats. A bit on the pricey side, but that's island life it seems. Still happily recommend.

Could be a good place but at this point would not go back or recommend. Our server was friendly…read morebut did not check on us after being served. I had to catch her attention to ask for dessert. The total cost of our meal (without alcohol), was not the second issue. The two main entrees we ordered were. Two couples each split a meal because the description we were given was that it was a large portion. We and the other couple each ordered the $36 scallop and noodle meal. I can't remember the name of it but I believe it was the most expensive on the menu, maybe. I will say the restaurant was nice enough to split them ahead of time. However, our plates had the following... mine with two scallops and some noodles, my wife's with one scallop and some noodles. Our two friends received the same accordingly. The taste was wonderful but that meant a $36 entree had three scallops and not a lot of noodles; that is it. Perhaps I expect more than I should but I am not one to shy away from an expensive meal now and again. This I would expect from a high end restaurant but this is not a high end restaurant. Overall: Good tasting Poor follow up from waitress Way too much money for what you receive (especially this entree) ...doesn't matter who you are. The other items we ordered were , in my opinion, not terribly priced but somewhat still. Perhaps it is just Washington's crazies and the fact I am on an island but...???.... At this point I would give this place a 2 out of 5

We will be returning to try their dinner menu. We got to meet the chef and he signed his Ramen cookbook for us. We loved that we could take our pup with us (he stays in his stroller the entire time).

The fries were good!
