The bacon was perfectly salty and the poached eggs perfect! The hollandaise sauce was amazing and not too little or too much. The fried potatoes were nice and hot, crispy and soft inside. Well seasoned as well. A perfect breakfast. I had a Bloody Mary as well and chose the spicy mix. It is definitely spicy! The mix was very flavorful and the special salted rim was a perfect match. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. You can tell a lot of locals come here to eat. They filled up quickly and everyone seemed to know each other even as a restaurant in a hotel. I highly recommend eating here if you at Friday Harbor!

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.

If you find yourself in Friday Harbor, you absolutely have to visit this spot. My top tip: make a…read morereservation. This place fills up fast, and after dining there, it's easy to see why! Our party of three visited for lunch at noon on a Thursday. Since we had a reservation, we were seated immediately at a lovely table right by the window. The atmosphere was great, and the staff were incredibly courteous and friendly throughout our meal. We initially thought about starting with some small plates, but we were so eager for seafood that we jumped straight into the entrees. We weren't disappointed: Bouillabaisse: This was our first time trying this dish, and it was the highlight for us. It was incredibly flavorful--exactly what we were craving. Spicy Prawn Mac and Cheese: It definitely lived up to its name! It wasn't "blow-your-head-off" hot, but it had a perfect, noticeable kick that really elevated the dish. Blackened Cod Tacos: These were fantastic. The cod was perfectly prepared and worked so well with the rest of the taco ingredients. We also enjoyed a couple of non-alcoholic drinks that hit the spot, though I'll admit that since I'm writing this a couple of weeks later, I forgot to snag photos or the specific names of the drinks! They also have a really nice patio area if you prefer dining outdoors. Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a great meal with a view, this place is a must-visit!

A lovely restaurant tucked at the edge of Friday Harbor…read more While the views were stunning, the service was just ok. For the nature of the restaurant, we had hoped for our waitress to be more friendly and genuine. However, it felt like they just wanted to fulfill our order and be done. I ordered the South Sound Clams and Snapper Sandwich. Bathing in an umami-packed and rich Thai curry broth, the clams were tender and fresh with a bit of brine. Very good and shareable with one other person. The snapper sandwich wowed me! The bright escovitch and creamy avocado paired wonderfully with the snapper. Every bite was delightful. The house-made potato chips, however, were disappointing. They were thin, not crispy, and sticking to my teeth. If you can, substitute for fries or salad. Despite our subpar service, the delicious, well-priced food and beautiful scenery still make this the perfect date spot.

Drinks were solid too. But the main course was disappointing. We ordered the steak frites, and the steak was overcooked, bland, and oddly not sliced the way it's typically presented. For the price, we expected much better quality and execution. It wasn't a terrible experience, but definitely not the special birthday dinner we were hoping for. Probably wouldn't return for a full meal, though I'd come back for oysters and drinks.

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.
