Delicious!

We went out for a late dinner at the new Sequim Seafood and Smokehouse Restaurant on Saturday night. It was a quiet night, though there was a large group in another corner. The staff told us that they’ve been busy but that it’s quieted down some since Labor Day. The restaurant has been open eight weeks now.

I won’t pretend to be a restaurant critic here. I’ll just say that our dinners were wonderful. They offer fresh, “wild caught,” high quality seafood that was very well prepared. My prawns, above, were perfect.

My husband had halibut. I would have coveted it if my prawns hadn’t been so good. His fish was fresh, delicious, and beautifully cooked. This is what seafood is supposed to taste like.

I don’t take this meal for granted. We had a seafood lunch in Port Townsend a few months ago that cost more and should never have left the kitchen.

Sequim Seafood and Smokehouse has a small, sensible menu, just right to match startup ambitions for a new restaurant. It includes the expected chowder and fish and chips as well as dinner dishes like we had. They presently serve dinner only but hope to eventually serve lunch, too. The staff is friendly and pleasant. Service was good and the setting is attractive. We don’t go out to dinner regularly or often, but we’ll definitely put this spot on our list, right up at the top. If you like seafood it’s worth a try. The restaurant is located on West Washington, in the same shopping center as Safeway.

  1. We ate at Sequim Seafood last week. It was very good and the people working there were wonderful. They hope to open for lunch in the near future. They’ve hired a great chef and I predict good things for Sequim Seafood and we WILL RETURN.

  2. I’ve been BUSY with some personal things (my mom fell) so blog reading has taken a back seat. So glad to see your wonderful posts and pics. Especially love that railroad bridge and ‘Waiting.’ And I would love to place an order for some salmon or shrimp or calamari! So glad you enjoyed this!

  3. It’s a lot of fun when you find a good restaurant … I’d imagine you’d have fresh seafood up in them thar parts! I’ve a friend who lives here in the winter but goes back to Canada in the summer – he complains about our “warm water” seafood all the time. I tell him it’s imported from Nova Scotia but he just scoffs! 🙂
