This is probably the best eatery on Vashon island. Enjoy great food in local cozy atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Just had a delightful dinner here for a private event! The salad greens were tasty and definitely not run-of-the-mill salad. The paella was also well seasoned and really good!

We had a BLT and Cool Ranch Chicken sandwich. Did not ever think I had to come to Vashon from Houston to have one of the best BLTs ever.

Friendly staff, amazing food! I was waffling between the fried shrimp sandwich and the smoked briskest Rueben. She said they’re the best items on the menu. The chef looked over and told me to go with the shrimp. How could I say no? It was incredible! The lightly fried shrimp was sweet and juicy, the slaw and aioli gave some extra texture and flavor, and the bun held everything together well. Yum! Will have to go back and order both the brisket Rueben and the shrimp sandwich next time. Why not both?

Order at the register restaurant, with southern style food. The pulled pork was delicious, but get there on the earlier side, as they can sell out. A lovely experience!

We ordered up front at the register. I had the smoked turkey sandwich with a housemade pickle. My wife went for the fried chicken, we split an order of latkes, and she ordered potato salad. Our guest ordered the BLT. We sat out back on a lexan roofed, lexan walled patio just full of plants, we looked at each other and exclaimed, "a secret garden." Food came in about five minutes, not bad at all and it was all very tasty. My sandwich had lettuce leaves sticking out on every side, not bland store bought lettuce, (or maybe it was chard?), but super fresh leaves with substance. And there was something red, maybe a roasted pepper? Gosh it was good, I could eat a pound of whatever it was. The sandwiches come with acetate bag of potato chips, don't know if they make them in house, but they have a bit of a black pepper wing to them. At one point a lady let herself in via the back gate, she immediately straightened a few chairs, came over to us and asked if we would like some more water. When she came back I asked her if she was the owner, she nodded yes. So I told her she reminded me of Edna, from Edna's Table in Sydney AU. Now that I have looked up their story on the web the resemblance in life stories is amazing. We will be back!

Great food here! I had a world-class fried chicken sandwich (daily lunch special) with a nice glass of wine. Lots of other great items on the menu as well. Pets allowed on the patio! Try parking in back; street parking is a little crazy here on weekends. Olympic Otter

Yummy, Yummy, Yummy!! They have the best sandwiches with a few options. We got the brisket and rye and it knocked our socks off. Cozy place with great service and awesome atmosphere. Oh, ya the potato chips are killer! Make sure you at least two bags, one just isn't enough. We will definitely be back.
