The Restaurant at Friday Harbor House -Food CA (Near Friday Harbor)

3 /5 Zoe: 5/5 on the service and atmosphere, and presentation. However the food itself as other reviews here have mentioned is mediocre at best. I ordered the blackberry prawns and hominy and everything on my plate was so over-smoked it was almost like eating straight cigarette smoke. Sad because the dish has so much potential for flavor. My boyfriend ordered the wild king salmon and his salmon was a little undercooked and had hardly any flavor. They should have smoked his and not mine. His cabbage salad was so bitter neither of us could eat it and we both love cabbage and greens. The appetizers weren’t bad, but overpriced as well in my opinion for what you get. The only thing that blew us away was surprisingly the tortilla chips that came with the crab dip. They were really good. We love settings and atmospheres like this restaurant provides, but unfortunately the food just did not measure up.

3 /5 Justin Swanson: This is not a review for the hotel, which is 5/5, this is for the restaurant attached. The restaurant staff and setting are fantastic, and has some great views looking over Friday harbor. Waiters and staff friendly as you would expect. The food, for the price, is unfortunately not worth it. Ive eaten here at least once each time Ive stayed in Friday Harbor House (the hotel), and each time Ive been unable to finish the meal due to how salty it is. The drinks are good, but expensive. This last visit was likely my last. Personally the food and drinks at Downriggers is cheaper, more varied, and wont leave you chugging water all evening.

5 /5 Crystal Brooks: This small restaurant overlooking the ferry and marina was a perfect spot to take our family for breakfast. The waitress was so kind and attentive. She went above and beyond for our son, and the chef even sent out a special order of mickey mouse shaped pancakes which made him so happy. The waitress also brought out a special toy for my son to play with while we waited for food. I cannot recommend this place enough, and we cant wait to go back.

5 /5 Deejay C: We had a really great time at the Friday Harbor House restaurant although it took us awhile to find the entrance. We started out with morning cocktails which was good and refreshing. The boyfriend had the avocado toast which he said was good. I had the beyond burger and boy let me tell you, i have my fair share of plant based burgers and this is THE BEST!! $25 can be steep for a burger but if its that good I will be back to Friday Harbor just to have it again!! Burger was juicy, and just full of flavor. Amazing! The service was so friendly and quick. Since its fall season the deck is fully closed so seats are limited What a way to start our day! Well definitely be back!

4 /5 Jessica: Amazing views and the staff were attentive, welcoming and fun. The beef short rib came with interesting flavors as it had pesto and hazelnuts. I am not sure if I would have it again if I came back or try to make a similar dish. The seafood pasta was also had and enjoyed with no complaints. The best was the warm brownie with ice cream and caramel for dessert. It melted in my mouth. Save room for dessert! Our server was attentive and had great humor too.
