We headed over for dinner to celebrate a special occasion, and we were glad we'd made a reservation because the place was packed! The ambiance here is dark and elegant - not something I necessarily expect in Anacortes, but it set the perfect tone for a special evening. Our server, Aimee, who I knew from local Yelp events years ago, was absolutely fantastic. She knew everything on the menu, and by the time she described everything we asked about, we had trouble not ordering it all. But first, we started with a bottle of perfectly chilled sauv blanc while we perused the menu. I was impressed by the varied selection of food. They have everything from burgers to ribeye, and all very fairly priced. We started with an order of calamari, perfectly fried and served with a citrussy, aioli-style sauce. For dinner, Dude loved their fish 'n chips while I devoured a plate of fresh king salmon served atop crispy risotto and the most amazing pesto lemon cream sauce. After we enjoyed sharing a dish of tasty creme brulee, Aimee shared that they serve brunch here too! I had no idea, but looking at the menu and hearing that they serve mimosas, we'll definitely be back. We also got a mini tour of their adorable speakeasy style bar and huge in-progress beer garden too. I'm definitely keeping Tasha Lee's on my Anacortes rotation!

Food trucks were at the ready. Again, sweet place with at least one super nice staffer.

Unfortunately, their decaf roast is just awful! Deeply bitter with a lingering flavor of burnt toast. I've had decaf at many places and to be fair it is tough. It's often more bitter than the full roasts, but I'm used to that. This is the first cup I couldn't finish in a long time. I even asked the barista and they kindly switched my Americano for their decaf drip. But that was just as bad so it's definitely the roast. I'm guessing their other roasts are better, and like I said the food and service were great for me. But if you drink decaf I really don't think this is your spot.

At least 2 families got up and left without eating. That wasn't an option for us, since the kids would have been upset and we were all so hungry. Then when I paid, I tried to explain to our server why I wasn't leaving a 20% tip and she started making excuses and arguing with me.
