Sunday was our first time dining at Fireside and it was great. We chose Sunday to experience their farm to table special, featuring foods from the area in 3 courses. First was a salad with buttermilk dressing and bread with crushed olive dip. Both were delicious. The entree was two codfish tacos with rice and beans. The tacos were great, rice and beans were okay (could have been spiced a bit more). Dessert was duck egg flan, which was done to perfection. Ambiance was super, we dined outside with a beautiful view of the marina, bay and mountains. Service was fine as well, we never waited for refills on water and drinks, meals were served quickly and properly.

The pork tenderloin had not been seasoned but the sauce was good. Theflank steak was good but also not seasoned. Would have been nice if they would have more options for appetizers.

Food was ok but not for the price. Sauce over chicken very bland and tasteless. Bread was very hard and the croutons in the salad were like rocks.

The Fireside is a favorite of ours and never disappoints. This visit was no exception. The food was excellent, and our server, Tanner, was outstanding. He was friendly, personable, and went out of his way to assist one in our party who had food sensitivities. Thank you for another wonderful lunch experience!

Have had better experiences at the Inn. Service was really slow this time and the server seemed annoyed to even deal with us. We had to ask other servers for help. We eat there almost every week so not the norm. Not much around here for locals...hope that new server learns or moves on.

Very low key dining. Didn’t have a full dinner since menu was limited and a bit overpriced. The basic Caesar salad with chicken added was ok, nothing special. Felt like dining in a retirement home which is basically what the residents of Port Ludlow are, retired. Staff was friendly but inexperienced due to limited number of people that probably dine there perhaps.
