22 Best American Restaurants near La Conner

“Run, do not walk to Nell Thorn Restaurant & Pub restaurant in La Conner. From the second that you walk inside the front doors, you know…that you are not in Kansas anymore! The surroundings were warm, and very inviting, and I loved the fact that every single member of the staff that approached the table, introduced themselves by name. The view is so unbelievable. Looking out of the windows, and seeing the moon reflected off of the water in La Conner was simply put: Magic. I wasn’t necessarily going to have a cocktail, but when I looked at their list, I absolutely had to order their Manhattan, which was exemplary and used only the best ingredients. Their menu is very reasonably priced for the unbelievable culinary experience that they provide. I was having a hard time deciding on what to choose from the menu, and the chicken was recommended to me. I don’t normally eat chicken in a restaurant. But after reading the ingredients which included confit chicken, wild mushrooms, and a marsala sauce, I decided to change my mind. Finding out I was gluten intolerant they even suggested substituting the pasta, which was on the menu, with their fried polenta. It was magnificent! Every bite was crispy, and every portion of the plate had a different phenomenal flavor that just exploded in your mouth. The owner recommended a beautiful red wine which was the perfect accompaniment for our dinner. And don’t get me started on the desert that was smothered in a rum caramel sauce. I have not been able to stop thinking about my dining experience at Nell Thorn and I give it five stars… Two thumbs up and a whole hearted recommendation. Bravo Nell Thorn🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Bobbi“

“Great local spot with good selection of draft beers and good seafood. Clam chowder was delicious and everything came out quick. Bartender was very nice and gave me samples of the beer as I was there from the East Coast. Good atmosphere and nice river views on the back room.“

“I have never been to your town, and it did not disappoint. I loved the businesses that made up the town. The food at your establishment was amazing and came out super fast. I ordered the guacamole which is always hit or miss for me because sometimes it’s spicy (don’t like spicy food) and other times it is not. It was prepared perfectly and I even tried the salsa, and let me be clear here, I am NOT a salsa person. However, it was delicious, and I will be back here again. Thanks for the fast service and good food“

“What an amazing experience! The food was fantastic and the service was amazing. My husband and I had the Dungeness Crab Au Gratin and Dungeness Crab Cakes, along with a mouth-watering Rhubarb Crisp! We Highly Recommend!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food was priced reasonably. The server was fantastic and helpful. The 5 dishes we got were very tasty. Clam chowder could of been thicker with more clams and would have been nice to have oyster crackers. The hot turkey dinner was a little weird. The turkey was deep fried I think but the plate size was huge. Western burger's bacon was perfect. Their bacon is very thick and largely portioned.“

Top Notch Custmor service and show us why we perfer to drive the extra to come to Swimomish!!! Thank you Jennifer Look forward to out next visit.“

“The price was was too high for some original burgers and fries. They even charge for dipping sauce which they even forgot with our orders when it was brought out. Kids meals wasn’t that great either. But I guess since the pandemic and their business was loosing money, had to spike the prices for their lost money. Used to be decent price before the Covid stuff. We wouldn’t of mind paying that much if the food was cooked and made better. Lesson learned, not coming back.“

“Fodd was pretty good. Reminded me of when I was a kid. Super excellent service. The server was there for us and super fast with coffee and breakfast. Only gave it a 4 star because the food could have been better. Would 200% recommend it to anyone wanting breakfast on the island.“

“I had a very rough morning. Stopped in for a meal late morning. When it was time to pay I could not find my debit card and feared I had left it at my last stop. The staff understood and trusted me to come back and pay. Luckily I did find my card and was able to settle up but I appreciate the kindness extended on a very tough morning.“

“Stopped here on our way back to Missouri. I grew up just down the road from this place and this was my first time eating here ( I'm embarrassed to say). we had the fish and chips and shrimp basket, both were amazing! I have eaten A LOT of fish and chips in my life and this was hands down the best. I love the shaded outdoor dining area, it was clean and comfortable. The staff here, is super friendly. If there is a line DO NOT let it deter you from stopping. It is work the wait. I even got 5lbs of shrimp to take back to MO.“
