Seabolts Restaurant - Oak Harbor (WA)

5 /5 M T: We enjoyed the halibut/chips and the calamari/chips. We upgraded to sweet potato fries ($3 more/dish) and its worth it as theyre so crispy and well seasoned. The generous container of chili lime tartar went well with the hot seafood. There were only two other occupied tables when we went so our food came out quite fast!

5 /5 Paula G: Absolutely the best fish and chips I’ve had in Oak Harbor! The restaurant has a few tables inside and serves really delicious food. Everything was fresh, crispy, and perfectly cooked. Highly recommended!

1 /5 Jeffrey Sauer: DRY FISH, UNDERCOOKED POTATOES, AND VERY UNSANITARY CONDITIONS!!!! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME! Unfortunately, our experience at this “restaurant” was extremely unsatisfactory. The fried fish (salmon, cod, and halibut) was very dry, the potatoes in the chowder were undercooked/still crunchy, and the halibut on the salad was very dry, unseasoned, and did not taste good at all! The service is lackluster and terrible! The employees are kind…. but no one comes by to fill drinks nor ask how your meal is etc etc. It is next to impossible to flag someone down, as the “restaurant” is severely understaffed and the employees are clearly stressed out (only 2 servers and 2 cooks). Behind the counter, you can visibly see a trash can (standard size trash can), where the cooks are pouring and dumping food into. After pouring and/or dumping food into the trash can, they reused the same pan (the pan was directly in and over the trash can). The disinfectant bucket was in plain view of customers (on top of the counter) and right next to an open pitcher of soda. There were tongs hanging within 1 1/2 feet from the floor and bread on a low shelf (about a foot from the floor). VERY UNSANITARY!!!

4 /5 Andreco Manigault: I ordered a cup of clam chowder. I thought it was something readily available at a seafood restaurant in Oak Harbor. I was told it would take 10 to 15 minutes, AFTER I paid. I wouldnt have ordered if I knew it would take that long, I was in a rush. It still took over 20 minutes for me to get it. I was so irritated at this point. Then I tasted the clam chowder.. Now Im mad that I didnt order a bowl instead, but there was no way I was going to wait another 20+ minutes. Definitely in the top 3 of best clam chowder I ever had. The cheese bread was a great surprise to get with it, instead of a bag of crackers. I will be telling everybody that even mention Oak Harbor to me about the amazing clam chowder here. But I also will be telling them about the 20 minutes wait. Definitely worth the wait if youre not in a rush like I was. Ill be back if Im ever in Oak Harbor again.

4 /5 Jeffrey Geraci: It is a fish market with a few tables on a busy street, but the food is amazing!! We had the clams and mussels in garlic and butter with toasted focaccia and the clam chowder. At first we were wondering why it took 15 mins, but everything is made to order, so the wait was worth it!! The bread was crispy with butter garlic, the clams and mussels, so tasty. But the clam chowder is the best we have ever had, and we live in a beach town!! Definately go for the freshest food, and good prices!! The staff and the owner were super nice and provided great service!! So happy we dropped in. This place is a must if you like great food!!!
