Reception

The 2016 and 2017 editions of the Not for Tourists Guide of Seattle say the chowder and salmon sandwiches are "worth the wait". [8] [9] Naomi Tomky included the halibut sandwich in Thrillist's 2016 list of "The 50 Best Things to Eat and Drink at Pike Place Market". [10] In 2018, Harrison Jacobs of Business Insider said the salmon sandwich has "been voted the best sandwich in the market for many years". [11] In Eater Seattle 's 2019 overview of "The Greatest Places to Eat in Seattle's Greatest Tourist Trap", Lesley Balla wrote, "The small counter is a great perch for people-watching. Signage says the sandwiches are TV-famous, and the blackened salmon, cooked medium-rare, slathered with sweet grilled onions and rosemary mayo on a chewy baguette, is fantastic in its simplicity." [5] Seattle Magazine has included the grilled salmon sandwich in an overview of recommended "cheap eats". [12]
