Roadriggers San Juan Island

How is this place not rated higher?!? The service (our waitress was great) and food was beyond our expectations! At first we were not sure as it was a restaurant, but we realized that it was worth every penny, especially when you look at dinner. Everything came out quickly! The food and the drinks were so good! We had the flat iron steak and the Clam Chowder w/ warm bread tomato butter. We also had dessert (not sure what it was called) it was amazing!! We had the best meal in awhile!!!

Best food on San Juan Island. Beautiful location on the bay, food is delicious and seafood is fresh. Great ambience and right next to the pier. I want to come back one day.

Not the best, but okay. Calamari was delicious, but slightly overcooked. Fish and chips had too much bread, but the fish was cooked properly. Scallops and Gnocchi was very tasty cooked with scallops perfectly. Spicy Mango margarita was something different and refreshing. All right... I think there are better places to try. View of the port is top notch. Service was very good

The views in this place are not disappointed. The best part about the airy, glass-encased dining room is the availability of a fantastic view, regardless of where you sit. The terrace is also beautiful, but make sure it is not too cool before you sit, as the island can become cool and windy fast. We came here for lunch and dinner. The food is solid and tastes fresh. Certainly ask for the specialties as they turn out interesting dishes daily. We ordered Dungeoness crabs and bread with sun-dried tomato butter for apps. The butter was surprisingly tasty and satisfying in fresh weather. The papers, on the other hand, were undercoated and filled with filler potatoes. There were negligible crab flavors. The panned salmon was the dish of the day and cooked for perfection. Halibut was just as good that you wouldn't go wrong here with fish. Prawn mac and cheese is also delicious, but in person I would lure one of the fish over it. The fish and chips are serviceable, crispy and with a generous help from Fritten. For Dessert we tried the candy cake and the white chocolate cheese cake. The former had a little 'cooler taste' cling to the cream, but was otherwise moist and went fast. The cheese cake is solid, but nothing special. As far as the service is concerned, the waiter seemed rather inexperienced, often swapped with each other and spilling water on the table, but they were pleasant for the most part. Downriggers is a great choice for a special occasion and for some great views. They just managed to justify their price.

We had such a great experience on our day trip to Friday Harbor. The staff here was very accommodating, great vibe with outdoor seating and fireplace. They have a coconut margarita that is absolutely to die for, we will be back for sure
