Sirens - Water Street, Port Townsend, WA

My wife and I decided to have a quick bite and a drink for lunch after spending the day in the sun visiting Port Townsend. We'd heard of Sirens and decided it was worth a try. The restaurant is upstairs and has an outside area overlooking the harbor. We were lucky enough to find a spot out there so we could further enjoy the rare sunshine. Up until now everything seemed fine. After about five minutes a waitress stopped by to see if wanted a drink or a menu. I'm pretty patient and attributed the delay in service to the crowd of folks enjoying the sun like we were. So, after an additional fifteen minutes, we received our menus. I started to notice that everyone around us seemed to know each other and the staff. That in itself isn't a big deal, but when the service spends all their time catering to the locals, visitors like us get left out.

The food was average at best. I had the Jamaican Jerk Burger and my wife had the Cobb Salad. Both were fine, but not great. They have a fair selection of beers...one to cover each of the main categories. I tried the IPA, which I enjoyed.

All-in-all, I wouldn't recommend this place. There are lots of other places in Port Townsend with better service and food...look for those places.
