“Great breakfast- good service- good coffee- clean-“

“See the photos for review.“

“We ate at Ursa Minor for the third time last night. This lovely place never disappoints — from the ambience to the service to the uniquely innovative and delicious local dishes. Every. Single. Bite. Just so satisfying. We love the intimacy of the room and the service is perfect. There were four of us and we shared several items. The pacing was ideal. We had the BarnOwl bread with fermented yeast butter, cold fried chicken, cod fritters, black cod, roasted squash, duck confit, and gnocchi. It was a perfect evening. Ended with the panna cotta.“

“I am having a love affair with the burgers AND crunchy hot tator tots at this amazingly cute and charming Drive In spot in town run by the friendliest most welcoming locals! 🍔“

“Great spicy Mac and cheese!“

“Such amazing food and amazing people at an amazing establishment! The Roast Beef and Rocket and the Victory Garden sandwiches are my favorite things to get, but you can’t go wrong with anything they have to offer! 😋“

“A great locals bar and perfect for the seasonal tourist!! 🍸💖✨“

“I absolutely love this place. Hands down best breakfast in town.“

“Wonderful feel to the place. I'm 81, just moved on-Island. Wife asleep from COVID vaccine reaction. No food in the house (recently moved here). Had seen their ads about "best hamburger on Orcas" and -- at 8:45p -- decided, "Why not?" Great decision. Absolutely cooked medium rare. Wonderful waitress -- very easy-going. Likely to become a regular dinner place for us. Highly recommend.“

“Great happening place in quite island!!“

“Food was great service was wonderful thanks for putting in the extra effort it's a game day and ferries are hours behind and they nailed it“

“Four of us went on a Saturday evening and the food was exceptional. Amazing view and reasonable prices. The reservation fee was credited back to my account after our dinner.\n\nService is island chill which means it can take a little while. When we were first seated it took about 10 minutes for our server to get us water and take our drink orders. After that, service took a more normal pace.\n\nWe had the clams, crab cakes, and prosciutto wrapped jalapeños and all three were delicious with the crab cakes being the winner. Quite possibly the best we have ever had.\n\nThey were out of the wedge salad but were able to make a salad with the wedge ingredients which worked out fine. The bolognese was very good as were the fish tacos. I loved the Fat Tony pizza.\n\nWe were all too full to have dessert.\n\nWe will definitely go back.“

“This was my first time visiting Orcas Island, we decided to pop in here and try it out due to them having GF options! I was pleasantly surprised at their GF options. It was so good, we came back the next night and ate on the patio!“

“The French Toast I dreamt about all night. Then at breakfast my dream was totally fulfilled. I'm a happy camper with the Galley Rich Seubert“

“Long-time (~25 years) favorite San Juan Islands destination. Kathy and crew are great hosts. Amenities equal to, or greater than any other, and at an affordable price.“

“This review is for the restaurant. The food is amazing. The vegetables, apples, and pears are all grown on the property. The freshness and flavor shine through. We had the Mad Hatter Chicken and Scallops. Highly recommend.“

“Great breakfast and mimosa. I especially loved the tater tots in lieu of hashbrowbs.“
