Despite wildly advertised as dog friendly, no outside seating was available on 26 April 2024. Too bad, went elsewhere!

Great restaurant with gorgeous views of the Friday Harbor waterfront and marina. Called 2 hours in advance to reserve and was accommodated for a table of 6. The food was delicious. The service was great. The setting was beautiful. 5 stars all around.

The crab tater tots were simply amazing, Jackie is an amazing person who noticed that we weren't happy with one of our selections and she promptly removed it and had the kitchen remake it.

Excellent location with beautiful views. Seating was comfortable. Establishment was clean and mostly quiet.Our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and made excellent drink recommendations. She was friendly and fast with service.My steak was one the best steaks I've ever had. Very tender, moist, seasoned perfectly. The scalloped potatoes were not great and the asparagus was fine but was served cold which didn't seem right. My husband ordered fish and chips - the chips (aka fries) were terrible - cold and stale. I couldn't believe they let them leave the kitchen like that. We didn't complain so I'm sure they would have made it right. He just didn't feel like waiting for them.Even though some of the food items were lacking, I would go back because the overall experience was enjoyable.

Bittersweet review. Such a beautiful restaurant that had amazing food. Amazing vibe inside. It’s very pricey so be ready to pay some $$$. Great view of the sea. Unfortunately staff ruined it all for my experience. The waitress nor the host were friendly to my wife & I. The waitress did help choose a dish for my wife but it took some effort from the waitress to recommend some items. I felt that there were other customers at the restaurant who seen better attention than we got. It took me 15 minutes to be able to get her attention so I can pay my bill… because she was talking and catering to these familiar faces. Which isn’t a bad thing. But it has to be addressed that it’s busy in the restaurant you have to cater to others….

We couldn't figure out what to order bc everything looked so delicious! Went with the spicy prawn mac and cheese and cod tacos. MUST order the crab tots. Went back for their amazing key lime mousse and four other desserts.

Food was.... ok.... we had mixed feelings in our group. I had the blood orange mojito. It was a little weird. I also had the spicy prawn mac and cheese. It was also a little weird. The flavor of the sauce was ok, the prawns pretty good, and spice level started light and built over time. It's topped with arugula which was bith the best and worst part of the meal. Where small leaves had gotten mixed in and started to wilt made the best bites. The flavor of the wilted arugula worked nicely with the pasta. Unfortunately that was only a few bites. The rest was raw, undressed arugula that had some long, sturdy stems and dry leaves that were hard to eat.The fish and chips come with good tartar sauce and good aioli, fish is decent, French fries are basic. Not amazing. Not terrible.The Chai bourbon old fashioned is pretty amazing, I highly recommend it.Most of the tables have a view of some sort, atmosphere is great, and the service was good. We probably won't be back though, the prices are high for the quality of the food.

Bland food, bad service, great views, but you can enjoy the view from the docks, which is definitely the way to go.Won't return.

Our waitress was amazing. She provided great options for all 7 of us. I had the Bouillabaisse (completely butchered the name when I ordered, sorry) which was amazing. Over all a great experience. Great view as well.
