They have excellent food and service. I think their menu could be a bit more diversified. Nice atmosphere with a lot of locals eating there, but as visitors, we felt welcome.

Not a bad place for a simple lunch...the reuben sandwich served with a side of salad and a pickle was tasty and filling. Service was friendly and efficient.

My fiancee and I both had omlettes for breakfast. We both skipped lunch that day. I had the smoked salmon and cream chesse omlette. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of smoke salmon that was in the omlette. My financee ate her entire breakfast, which is rare as she is a non breakfast person. Lots of locals in the... More

I walked in at lunch time, waited for 5 minutes to be seated, then sat at a table close to the register. 2 servers then came out of the kitchen, looked at me, and ignored me for another 5 minutes, after which both went back into the kitchen. Then one of the 2 servers, a young man, came out to... More

Went in search of a basic breakfast and found it at the Skillet, in downtown Eastsound on Orcas Island. The place was packed but we only had to wait about 4 minutes for a table. The service was excellent, coffee good and the food tasted homemade. The side of ham was a bit tiny but we Americans eat way too... More

Eggs, avocado, shrimp, cream cheese...mmmm my mouth waters still when I think of it. Delicious flavors. Relaxed, simple place. A bit slow on the food delivery, but hey, you're on "Island Time" chill out and bring a paper or enjoy some conversation with your dining companion(s). Only complaint would be that the omlet I ordered wasn't piping hot--the cream cheese... More

No wait, great food and a very reasonable check. If our B&B wouldn't have provided us with breakfast we would have surely come back the next day.

We appreciate your review! Aren't the hot sauces wonderful! We try to keep that shelf stocked with as much variety as possible and our chef has even delved into creating his own line of hot sauces! More
