Best american restaurant in Friday Harbor, Washington (WA) 2024

Initial thoughts are mixed. This was our first visit since Ernie's reopened. The Korean Beef Bulgogi rice bowl was good and tasty, the quality of beef very good; it was juicy and seasoned well. But the Fish Sandwich was tasteless and the bottom bun was as hard as a hockey puck and impossible to bite through! Prices seemed good until the tiny portion sizes and inedible sandwich were delivered to our table. Nice chef and good drink and chip choices, but not really wowed by the food. And for the small amount you get (btw, rice is too damn cheap to be charging $15 a bowl for it), it was not worth the cost. Better sandwich buns and decent portion sizes would go a long way to improve the place. ~N

This was probably the most affordable place on the island for dinner. My husband and I were tired and didn’t want to spend $80 a plate and one of the more upscale restaurants. This place hit the spot. The burgers were tasty. Tater tots were better than the french fries. Nothing outstanding so if you’re looking for “that burger” this is not the place. It wasn’t dirty but wasn’t clean either. Service was friendly though and we were able to sit and enjoy an inexpensive burger. ~Leita
