Don't waste your time with any other place in town. Fraser's is memorable. Service is 5 stars food is 5. I'm waiting on desert but I'm not worried about that.

I was welcomed by a friendly staff without a reservation mid week; I was told the bar was full but I could be seated at a table. The tables are set with cloth tablecloths, salad fork, fork, knife, butter knife, a water glass, and cloth napkin. The colors are soft green with warmly lit sconces. I ate the goat cheese salad which had a very light vinaigrette and thinly sliced julienne apples. The salad was a 5/5! The salad was accompanied by a piece of sour dough bread and red pepper hummus! Yummy! I am a connoisseur of crab cakes of which I highly recommend a new recipe. There were 3 nicely seared crab cakes on a bed of slaw and a side of wasabi sauce. The crab cakes were some of the worst I have ever tasted. They were overly breaded inside and it tasted like they used the sourdough bread. The sour flavor took from the crab. I would have had two crab cakes with way less filling. I had a nice Cabernet paired with my dinner. The salad and ambiance gave it a 4; otherwise it would be a 2.

I was not expecting such a wonderful meal on the island (I was visiting from out of town) and was BEYOND surprised and impressed by the food, the ambiance, the wine and the staff, incredible experience. I have since gone to the store to try to recreate the salad I had here which was PHENOMENAL! Top 3 salad I've had in my life. Wonderful experience all around

One of the best dining experiences we have had in a long time. We started out with drinks from the bar and were not disappointed. The sourdough with red pepper hummus was deliciously unique. Next, we had the young greens salad (with mussels added on) and the Caesar salad to start. The pears in the young greens salad with the mussels made it fabulous. My dining partner had the crab & shrimp lasagna - he practically licked the plate at the end. I had the long-bone short ribs and couldn't have enjoyed it more. We took home a good part of the large portion and had the next day. We finished with coffee; dining partner had the vanilla cheesecake (sooo good per my friend) and I had the almond cake with anise ice cream. Moist, flavorful and maybe a bit overdone on the outside; the bake time was likely needed as the height of the cake is tall. We plan to return in the spring on our next overnight trip so that we can enjoy more of the menu selections. Chef Fraser stopped by table to thank us for coming in and to make sure we were pleased. We were! Elegant sublime atmosphere- white linen tablecloths, wall scones, nice lighting. Great vibe.

We came in one night without a reservation. The host was super friendly and seated us right away. Most of the tables were occupied but the noise was super low and still intimate enough for a date night. The food was AMAZING as always and really not as expensive as you might think. Well worth it. Cheers.

My wife and I came here for our anniversary. We sat at the bar and I would highly recommend that experience to anyone. You get to sit right there as the talented chefs prepare the food, it is fascinating and smells incredible. Our food and drink were excellent and our server attentive. I am a vegetarian and despite living here a decade we hadn't been here because the menus we looked at online seemed to be pretty limited for vegetarians. That isn't currently the case. I had the choice of a few dishes and the cream sauce on my choice was perfect. I highly recommend and would absolutely return. The price is high, but the food and service is worth it.

Fabulous service, wonderful food, and an enjoyable environment. This was an unexpected treat. We started with cocktails and shared 2 apps. The brie and garlic fondue was luscious and perfect for the four of us to share. The dry ribs came with 4 pieces and they were very tender and we loved the little sauce (blackberry?). I had the duck pappardelle and loved the crumbled crispy skin garnish. I would have liked a little more :-). My other had the fried chicken and corn spoon bread and I couldn't keep my fork out of his plate. Also at our table was the crab and shrimp lasagna. It was beautiful and delicious. But very rich. Could have used something on the plate to give your pallet a rest. Lastly was the lovely rack of lamb with pistachio crust. We shared the profitero dessert and literally scraped the plate. We did not expect such a fantastic meal experience on Whidbey Island!

Wow. In Oak Harbor. I am still shocked. We sat at the bar and got to converse with the chef. Food was excellent and had great flavor. I tend to avoid high end food because I find it translates into presentation and lacks flavor. Not here! I can't wait to come back!

I can't believe it's taken me so long to write this review! My boyfriend and I were RV'ing in the Oak Harbor area a few months ago and in the mood for a nice dinner. I had no idea such an amazing place existed in the area! We called for a reservation on what was a busy Saturday night, and were lucky to get a table at a reasonable hour. When we were arrived, we were greeted immediately and got a nice seat by the window, with a view of their open kitchen. I had looked up the restaurant on Yelp in advance (of course!) and recognized their owner working behind the counter along with the rest of his amazing team. We ordered a couple of cocktails, and started with an order of crab cakes to share. They were the perfect appetizer, served with a luscious-yet-mild wasabi-based sauce. Next, the dude got a ribeye, served perfectly and with seared asparagus, and I ordered the seared scallops with a homemade risotto. Since it happened to be St. Patrick's Day weekend, they had a sticky toffee pudding on special and - even though we were stuffed - we ordered it to share for dessert. It was sweet, decadent, and so delicious I kinda wish we'd ordered two (even though I probably would have exploded). What brought this amazing meal over the top was the amazing and friendly service we received. I've never thought of Oak Harbor as being a fine dining destination, but I wouldn't hesitate to make the drive here again for a special occasion (or if we're camping nearby again and don't feel like cooking).
