★★★★★ 5.0 Carmen Garrido · Aug 2025

I was looking for a savory salmon and I found it at this place. It was really combination of smoky flavors and great texture. I also liked the halibut and the sauce and the bread was really incredible. Staff worked diligently to serve it. Staff also cleaned up very quickly after each costumer.

Wow, is that the best chicken sandwich in Seattle? I had zero expectations at waterfront food focused restaurant, but it is amazing. Juicy chicken, crispy, breading, brioche bun, fresh tomatoes. It even overcomes cranky Gen Z kid at the counter Sorry it’s not the best photo I had to stop in the middle and post this review because it was just so good and I didn’t want to forget!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Elvan · Oct 2025

ate here last night right before they were closing. it is a chill place. they have service fee but you don't have to pay tips. if you don't consume pork, though, be careful to not eat other meat because they told me that they are cooking most of the meat together. this was not the case for salmons, so i got it with ceasar salad. though, if you have money, you can go a different place for sure. i still liked the place for its price, anyway.

We stopped by here because it was right on the pier and just down from the harbor cruise we were going to. I didn’t even check the reviews since we were on a time crunch. It’s a cafeteria-type ordering system where you pick out your food and beverage, pay, get a number, and they will bring it to your table. I enjoyed a bowl of fish stew, and my son enjoyed his shrimp poor boy sandwich. We both had their microbrewed lager, which was overpriced and average. They have a condiment and lemon-filled water station to refill your water. There is a 4% service fee. There is no table service besides bringing your own order. Seattle pier prices. Fast turnaround after the order. Clean tables. It wouldn’t be my first choice again, but its location made it right for the time.

Came here on a whim, as we were cruising the pier and got hungry before our reservation at the nearby aquarium. The prices were a bit high, but what do you expect from a heavy traffic, tourist area. I got a simple Caesar salad, my son got the chicken tenders, and my boyfriend; the fish and chips. Seating was a bit rough, it was extremely packed and we had to wait a bit until someone left. The outdoor patio seating by the water was beautiful. The workers bring the food to your table, and they have a condiment station with a water dispenser, where you get those things yourself. My salad was fine, hard to mess up a salad. My son and boyfriend’s fried food items were okay. My boyfriend’s fried halibut was a little tough? A weird texture for something advertising halibut, as it’s usually more
