This place never disappoints! They have the best calamari I've had in recent years, I get it every time! I keep forgetting to snap a photo because I'm usually to dang hungry! Husband had a cheeseburger and I had the tempura prawns & chips and what I love about it is that they don't over batter it. Yummy read more

The Cabana - Prawns - Fish & Chips Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

Love the Cabana! The food and entertainment is our favorite! Can't wait for the restaurant to open! And we love Aloha Danny! See you there soon! read more

If you don't get, you can't give. Sadly such is the case with 'The Cabana', an informal dining adjunct next to the Anthony's restaurant in Anacortes. THE ROSES: Wonderfully fun, well, laid out and attractive space. The Cabana encourages people to hang out, nosh and have fun with a bocce court and live music frequently on offer. Limited menu does a reasonably good job including appetizers, mains and some really nice looking desserts. The prices were quite attractive, especially after dropping a C-note at the adjacent Anthony's the night before. THE THORNS: The sign at the entry said 'seat yourself'. We sat ourselves, and waited for a server to take an order, drop off some water, or at least acknowledge our existence. And we waited. And we waited. And we waited a bit more. After ten minutes of staff members walking RIGHT BY US and not even making eye contact, despite my best efforts to do so. I started to worry this was like the movie "Ghost", where the newly-dead Patrick Swaze character doesn't realize he's dead yet, and can't understand why no one seems to hear and notice him. We finally quietly left and dined again next door. Anthony's still got our money in the end, so I'm not happy about that, but we were hungry, and didn't feel like walking into town to eat somewhere else. THE VERDICT: If the food here is as good as next door, it's probably pretty good - if you can get someone to notice you and bring it! I realize that staff can get busy (but honestly on a Sunday evening, this place wasn't that slammed), but it won't kill a server - any server - to at least say hello and let you know that someone will be coming - someday - to take your order. I think ten minutes is a reasonable amount of time to get noticed, don't you? Anyway, one star. You'll probably have a good experience. I can't believe this place treats everyone this way and stays in business, so I'll be generous and assume this horrid experience was a 'one-off'. Still, I can't rate what I don't get, so ONE STAR. read more

We have dined here many times with our dog but they are no longer dog friendly. The food is just okay but being able to get our dog off the boat after long passages was the main reason we went here. read more

Overpriced especially for what you receive. The portions are incredibly small - insultingly so. I ordered a three-piece fish and chips for $26 and received McNugget-sized pieces of fish. Here's a photo of the fish servings (I ate some fries before the photo was taken so ignore that serving size). When I asked the server if that was the normal size I got a yes and a "yes, it's kinda sad" response. I rarely post negative reviews and always wait a few days to see if I still feel the same way. In this case, I still feel as ripped off as the first days ago. My family and I have gone to Anthony's for several years but no more. On the plus side, the food tasted fine and the outdoor seating is nice. read more

The Cabana - tiny portions of fish - Fish & Chips Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

Whenever I'm in Anacortes on a sunny day, The Cabana is my favorite place to stop for lunch or happy hour. Their menu (prepared at neighboring Anthony's) is full of fresh seafood options, nourishing salads, and great specialty cocktails. But the best part is the beautiful outdoor setting with views over the Anacortes marina. It's an amazing place to sit and enjoy drinks and good food while boat (and people) watching. The service is always on point, and there's rarely a long wait for one of their outdoor umbrella tables. If I had one issue, it's that their prices have gone up this past year, while their portion sizes have definitely dwindled. I recently had their poke bowl and it was more of a poke snack than a bowl. I guess it's a sign of the times - but it does make it less affordable for me to go there. read more

This place has some of the best fries I've ever had. The Bumbleberry Rita was fantastic too. Great environment and very accessible!

Went here 5/24/25 for a burger and some sun. Super busy which is normal for this place. Also, they got rid of the bocce ball court, which really added some nice space to eat at. We had to wait quite a while for our server and getting everything put in, but that is only because I think she may have been the only one acting as a server. We ordered the cheeseburgers. We ordered them medium rare and my wife added bacon to hers. When they finally came, they were not medium rare. They were just a consistent gray color. These weren't the same burgers as last year. These were pre-formed thin, tasteless burgers. My wife's bacon was literally raw and in a ball instead of being put on like regular bacon. We showed our server and she was disgusted with it. All in all a very poor experience and at $21 a burger we won't be having those again. You can come in and enjoy the scenery of the marina and have a drink, but I would steer clear of the food and definitely not go if you're in any kind of a hurry. Also, there was a previous mention of the restrooms being quite dirty. That was true they were absolutely nasty. read more

Shout out to The Cabana -- we arrived with a motley party of 12 or so older birthday party gals, and the service was excellent, the food quite good, and I was impressed that they handled a big party so well, separate checks and all. The mahi tacos are perfect for a satisfying lunch -- probably not for a teenage athlete, but I appreciated a place to get a good lunch that wasn't the size of my head. read more

Whatever you do, get the clam chowder. Now to the other stuff. This place was amazing. It was absolutely delicious. Most likely the best fish and chips I've ever eaten here and the best clam chowder. I even had another one the day after and this one was still the best I'd ever had. The drinks are great. My husband loved their poke bowl too, fresh fish and vegetables. All perfection. read more

Met some of my friends today and really enjoyed the atmosphere of this place. It is all a outdoor with some of it covered overhead...they had hanging heaters which was good because it was a little cold. I had the blackened fish taco and the cucumber drink. The taco was perfect as was the drink. I can't wait to come back when the weather warms up! read more

You know what? This place was not bad, it has been closed for a while, but it is now back, and it is fun. They have an open aired patio with bocce ball, and a great lunch menu. It is not a bit menu, but it covers quite a bit... The prices that are on this web site are way off, it is a bit more expensive, like 19 dollars for a hamburger.... They have great service, just like Anthony's next door, they have heaters in the patio, so you do not get cold on cloudy days.... I really liked this place and the atmosphere here, and I would come back again. read more

We had a great meal at the Cabana. The Mahi fish tacos were delicious, bright with a bit of lime and I loved the fresh cilantro. The fish was cooked just right and warm with a nice hint of spice. Light cream and fresh salsa were amazing. The fish and chips are always great. The fish is well seasoned and the batter is crisp while cooking the fish perfectly. The batter is light and also seasoned. A lot of restaurants forget to season the fish and they always do. The service was great and cocktails always tasty! Enjoy the amazing view! read more

Went here for my birthday. I wasn't paying and I eat out quite often so I didn't choose. As soon as they handed me the plastic/disposable water cups I knew I was in for something forgettable. I ordered the spicy salmon tacos. The salmon was spicy, but the rest was difficult to recognize. There was barely enough salsa mayo to taste it. Every once in a while I got a really good bite, but only one or two. There were enough tortilla chips, but barely enough salsa to cover them. If you want salsa for the tacos, forget it. My friend got the cobb salad. He seemed fine with it, but he doesn't eat out often, The price was ridiculous for what we received. Service was nothing special. I eat at Anthony's regularly and the price for the tacos was about the same as the lunch menu for Anthony's. At least they have REAL water glasses in there. I get that The Cabana is outside - but really. Oh and I can't forget the bathroom. DISGUSTING. No toilet paper and it felt so dirty I didn't want to touch anything. If I hadn't consumed a full pitcher of water and had a 30 minute drive home I would NOT have even considered using it. Overpriced chain restaurant. Grateful for the thoughtful birthday dinner, but I wouldn't go back to the Cabana. Get something at the teriyaki place across the way and go eat it by the water. read more

The Anthony's Cobb salad was sooooo good. ("Oregon Coast shrimp, avocado, mango, crispy wontons, tomato and bacon on seasonal market greens tossed with fresh basil vinaigrette and crumbled blue cheese") A little expensive and closed early (7pm) but a very good meal. read more

Big sigh. Went here for a special occasion lunch and was not the best experience. The food was pretty alright. Don't bother with the drinks. Completely watered down and overpriced. Also, don't expect your server to greet you or even be remotely polite. The woman who served us was a completely aloof and would rather chit chat with her colleagues than get a good tip or review. Totally overpriced for what you get and I can go to McDonald's and be treated with more respect than this establishment. It's too bad. read more

Went there tonight, be aware if you go there and want to eat on the patio, that there is an unmarked 6" drop-off partway across the patio that caught my wife by surprise, causing her to fall heavily. She likely has a sprained ankle, and perhaps whiplash. Completely avoidable and unnecessary with proper markings/warning. Service was good, food was fine, however that event put a damper on the evening. read more

Lovely inside and outside dining. Service was prompt and courteous. View of Cap Sante Marina was amazing as well! Wife got the sweet n sour shrimp tacos and I got the grilled oysters. WoW!! You will not be disappointed! Totally recommend! Will definitely return. read more

Mahi Mahi Fish Tacos My wife looked forward to this item but was disappointed. The Mahi Mahi was very stiff and dry. The server graciously offered to replace the order, but, much to my frustration my wife declined the offer because she did not want to inconvenience our server! read more

Saul was a great server. The drinks were amazing & fun spot if you have kids as well!

It was our first time at The Cabana and I was pleasantly surprised! We had a large group of 9 and we were seated very quickly and the staff were very nice and shuffled things around to accommodate us. The views are amazing especially on a clear day! The marina and the mountains in the background are breathtaking. The menu had a lot of options that I wanted to try and it was a sweet surprise when the prices were very fair! Especially being affiliated with Anthony's next door that is more on the pricey end. I ordered the Mahi Mahi Tacos and my husband got the Alaskan Cod dish. We were happy with our food and everything was tasty. Service was quick and great! We will definitely be back when in Anacortas! read more

Great views, the best fish n chips I've had in the Northwest, and excellent service. Definitely going to be put in the rotation of local restaurants! The wife and I rolled in on a Wednesday evening. She had the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich ($11). She really enjoyed it. She wasn't unhappy about $5 glasses of wine during Happy Hour either! Despite my conditioned reservation about ordering fish n chips in Western WA, I ordered the 3 piece Alaska Cod, lightly Panko breaded ($12). The fish was great! The perfect ratio of fish to breading. Finally, someplace up here gets it right. I'll be back to order these again. Our server - Jesse - was wonderful. Attentive and friendly, but not overly so. The Cabana is adjacent to Anthony's, and can probably best be described as Anthony's complementary fish n chips 'to go' bar. read more

An outdoor casual setting but there was no reason to have two teenage bus girls laughing and giggling loudly, running around the tables, and throwing a handful of pens, one by one, into a cup at the bar from 5 feet away!! The other servers were busy doing their jobs. When I told the manager they were acting like five year olds, he said they're not five and he's take care of it. They started working when he was around. read more

The Cabana offered a resort-like patio setting for an excellent fish and cocktail bar. We came in looking for some small bites and ended up staying for hours, enjoying the weather, relaxing environment, excellent drinks and seafood, and accommodating service. We will definitely return on another beautiful sunny day. Mahi-mahi fish tacos, Cabana fish cocktail, and Shrimp & spinach artichoke dip were wonderful! As were their "Cabana Bloody Mary" and "Spiked Lemonades" read more

pretty awesome location and views for visits when the weather is nice. not sure how it would be in bad weather I liked the taste of the fish and chips but I thought the portions of fish were too small. This is the casual section of Anthony's restaurant next door read more

Although technically part of Anthony's at Cap Santa Marina, this place deserves its own Yelp page as it has its own entrance, its own building, its own menu and its own atmosphere. I tried this place today for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. The patio atmosphere is wonderful and the food is delicious. The staff were friendly and the menu has a wonderful selection . What more could you ask for. I recommend this place for an enjoyable bite . read more

I wouldn't eat dinner at Anthony's but I would attend Happy Hour at their The Cabana. It's pricey but the food and service is good. Careful when walking out to the Cabana, look down so you don't step off the edge of the Bocce Ball court which is unmarked in the middle of the area. Four of attended The Cabana 7/24/19. Good food all around for $111.00. Lucky it was Happy Hour and drinks were reduced. read more

We've been to Anthony's, next door, on many an occasion, but this was our first trip to The Cabana. It was great. You can't beat the location on a beautiful day, overlooking the marina and Cap Sante. We had mai tai's and they were yummy. We both had cheeseburgers which were great too. Fast and friendly service. Had fun watching some fellow diners play bocce ball too. Will definitely return. read more

This is the first restaurant I have eaten at in months, and I'm glad this was the place. I have successfully avoided eating out (beyond takeout) but was in Anacortes for the day and didn't have the option of getting takeout. The Cabana has decent food (not mind blowing but still good) and a great outdoor seating area. They were well spaced out and we felt safer with the disposable cups, cutlery, and dishes. The food is a little bit pricey for the quality, but location wise there isn't anything better for a casual option. The view is great, looking right over the marina. read more

Seriously need to convert from disposable plastic serve ware. I felt so guilty eating here after everything was plastic, it really affected my ability to enjoy the beautiful outside space. Please guys, change this so we can enjoy this space without hurting our planet! read more

Ok so this place isn't horrible but the food is kinda overpriced for the quality and my bloody Mary was very mediocre. The outside is really nice, clean, and has an overall good atmosphere. Our server was welcoming and attentive. The part that really brought this place down was all of the single use plastic. Plastic water cups, plastic utensils, plastic ramekins. Not only is it super unsustainable but If I'm sitting down in a restaurant I don't want to use plastic forks to eat my meal. It cheapens the restaurant. read more

The location of this place is just outstanding. Great view of the marina and they even have a boccie ball pit. You can just relax, sip an adult beverage and enjoy some pretty good food to boot. I had the Cod and chips with a side of claim chowder, while the wife had the Baked Cod in a white wine-cream sauce. Both dishes were great. I really would have loved to have this in a taco with cabbage and a spicy sauce, but alas, they have a pretty limited menu that does not include the fried fish in a tack. The cod in my dish was panko coated and cooked perfectly. I much prefer that to the heavier batter coated version; it was just delicious and made me wish that I had ordered the extra piece. The Cod in cream sauce was amazing as well. The sauce was not overly rich and did not take over the dish, but was a nice accompanying component. The red onion added a bit of edge to the dish that really helped cut through the richness of the sauce and fish. The chowder was good, but not anything particularly special. If we find ourselves in Anacortes again, we will make a return visit for sure. read more

Arrived by boat and came in for an early dinner. Food was ok, nothing to rave about, but they had two busgirls who we're racing around giggling making a racket, and playing a game throwing pens into a plastic bucket on the bar. We mentioned it to the Manager who seemed put out that we said something. No need to go back. read more

Super cute place and the patio and bocce ball lanes are awesome! We went there for lunch yesterday and were super impressed, totally fun and casual place with great food. We tried the fish and chips, fish tacos and the waffle chips with dip, delicious!!! They have really decent prices (for being affiliated with Anthony's) and they even offer cocktails. I can imagine this being a super awesome place to hang out and have dinner and drinks too. The place is right at the marina, views are awesome. read more
