Service was friendly, but at the end of the day it's about the food - which is why the 1 star. What…read morewe experienced were the two worst sandwiches we've ever eaten! The pulled pork sandwich had what seemed to be nearly half a bottle of mustard mixed with a lot of coleslaw and a little bit of smoked pork buried within as though it were a mafia informant that got the cement shoes treatment. The French Dip sandwich also had what seemed to be a half a bottle of horseradish cream sauce... which burned my eyeballs and fumigated my nostrils! I could only take about 3 bites before I couldn't handle the potency any longer. It was literally a horseradish sandwich with a side of weak broth. The abundance of condiments on both of the $25 overpriced sandwiches turned the bread into mush leaving us on the Brink of sandwich hell. The service, however, was good - I was able to get a different sandwich with no questions asked. Sadly I must award you no points for the food, and may God have mercy on your soul.

The deep fried trout appetizer was lovely, pad see ew was pretty standard and not overly sweet (and I tend to not like sweet food) like some comments have mentioned. We got the house red curry with pork. The spice level was great and the veggies were crisp and delicious. We enjoyed our cocktails too. The only item truly lacking was the tom yum soup. It honestly tasted like water infused with lime juice. No hint of all the wonderful flavors that make tom yum so delightful. Perhaps that was a bad batch. Otherwise everything was nice.

We came in here with our family and friends for an early dinner and it was truly a treat between the kid-friendly, low-key atmosphere and the food. We started with the Italian Charcuterie which featured a variety of fresh imported Italian cured meats with Castelvetrano olives and the kiddos devoured it. Our family ordered two pizzas - the Diggy and the San Gennaro and honestly, they were both so good I couldn't choose between the two if I had to. We also ordered the Spaghetti alla Chitarra - a creamy ricotta with fresh lemon zest and some arugula - and it was hands down delicious. I looked forward to the little leftovers we had and they were still good reheated. The ingredients were fresh and the combination of flavors in each of our meals was truly noteworthy. Just coming back from Italy and then dining here - I can honestly say this tastes like true, genuine, Italian food and it made me so happy. I cannot wait to come back again!

A perfect summer evening was spent in their fairytale grassy outdoor seating area, sipping on a cold mule and digging into some delicious pizza.

Parking is limited, but there is a Park & Ride just up the way and a short walk to the lounge. Walk through the main doors of The Wild Mermaid and back to the Seagull lounge. You will find a large wrap around bar that seats around 12. Spirits (limited, but good), wine (3-4 varieties) and beer (6 draft), again, good selection. Service has been amazing each visit. Our first visit (my wife and I), we arrived a bit early hoping to grab a drink before catching the ferry. They weren't quite open in the back, but the bartender offered to pour a beer or wIne since we made the trip in. We sat on the back patio and enjoyed the view and watched the the ferries dock. It was a GREAT 1st impression and that's what keeps us coming back. Saturday evenings (around 7) were bustling with what to seem are locals. Again, welcoming and service top notch! We haven't eaten here, so I cannot speak for the food, but people all around us were eating and ordering more. Again, if you have some time before catching the ferry, or just decide to walk on just to visit this place...(remember, check the hours) its worth it. We will be coming back to this little gem over and over.

We came by after happy hour at Anthony's and listened to a live set of great music. The place was packed, but everyone is friendly and was willing to share their table with us. We had a great time and I strongly recommend coming by the Quarterdeck to chill and listen to live music. Can't believe it took me 20 years of living in Seattle to find this place. So, don't repeat my mistake.

Quarterdeck is what I like to call a "come for the vibes, stay for the drinks, eat... somewhere…read moreelse" kind of place. I stopped by while visiting Seattle and while the food situation was a bit chaotic (they had rotating menus because they were out of a few items), I ended up ordering a kimchi-inspired sandwich that I wanted to love...but it just didn't do it for me. Not inedible, maybe a 2/5, but I'd definitely try something else next time. My friend ordered what I think was the Garden Harvest Wrap (a staple on the menu), and that was more of a 3/5. Both dishes were served cold (intentionally), which I think made a difference, I could totally see them being much better if they were warm. Now let's talk about what is worth it: the mimosa flight. SO good. Like dangerously easy to sit there, sip through all of them, and forget any minor food disappointments. But honestly, the real star here is the ambiance. You're right on the water with the most effortless, breezy, coastal energy. Boats drifting by, sun hitting just right, people lingering over drinks--it's giving main character energy in the best way. I found myself wanting to stay way longer than planned and even doing some work while there. This is absolutely a spot I'd come back to, just with a strategy: eat before or after, and come here to sip, sit by the water, and take a little walk on the dock. 5 stars for the vibes alone
