Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Deborah Scott

From the OpenTable editors: Sweeping water views and creative seafood, like everything-crusted ahi and a lobster and fontina BLT, set this bayside charmer apart. Not to mention a shaded patio, complete with heaters and a fireplace, which might be the prettiest outdoor dining space on Harbor Island.

    Made reservations the day before for lunch with my parents. Made an 11:30 reservation on a Monday. Got there around 11:20, let a few people go ahead... we were greeted then sat down. They were flexible in letting us pick inside or out. We decided to sit outside, it was a beautiful day. I ordered the warm spinach with blackened salmon and my parents had the tuna sandwich and Thai salad. Everything was exceptional!!! Our waitress (Jessie) was very attentive and we felt that we were her only customer. Highly recommend c level.

    While the view is outstanding and the decor fashionable the food was very disappointing. The artichoke fritters were grease balls and the sauce looked like a seagull flew over… The burger was highly recommended and so I went in that direction which I had hoped for a fish dish to recommended by our server. Again the fries tasted like week old oil so that was skipped. And the burger was just OK. Nothing to write home about and will probably not return.

    A five star view with 4 star food. Our waitress was adequate but had no personality.
