The Bay House At Salishan

If I could give it five stars or more I would give it the highest rating. It was an unforgettable, absolutely wonderful evening for our table of six family members. The food was literally the best I've had in a long long time. We enjoyed the seven course tasting menu along with paired wines.

Absolutely delightful. The steak was incredible and melted in my mouth. The service was wonderful. We were fortunate to sit by the window and catch some beautiful views. Thank you to Steve and your crew for an amazing experience.

What can I say...we dined at The Bay House back in 2019 and haven't been back since as Covid put a damper on many of our local trips. I was looking forward to this dinner and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT. We will return again and again. I recommend this place to everyone. If you're looking for a quick meal, this is probably not the place for you. The attentive staff were always on hand with water refills, taking plates away, had answers to my questions about ingredients, and were overall a delight. Go to the Bay House and expect to spend a good amount of money. I'm not saying this to deter anyone from going; I'm saying this as this is a dining experience and it is by no means cheap and quick. Our dining experience lasted over 2.5 hours. The extensive wine list is impressive, and the menu selections are mouth watering. We opted for the tasting menu, and we are extremely happy we did (although I know if we chose the three course or four course option we would have been perfectly satiated with that as well). What was nice is that neither my husband nor myself enjoys scallops (which happen to be one of the items on the tasting menu), and they accommodated our dislike by swapping for halibut (which is probably my favorite fish). This was so nice of them to do. Six courses: an amuse bouche followed by salad, halibut, duck, beef filet, cheese, and dessert. There were no bad courses here. EVERYTHING WAS WONDERFUL. We opted for the wine pairing and it was very nice to have a curated wine list to go with each course, and I might add, all three were very good. Everything was cooked to perfect and the flavor combinations were excellent. I can't say it enough dine here if you have the chance.

In regards to the above review, I would like to acknowledge the courtesy call from Mr. Steve Wilson, the owner of the Bay House at Salishan. I appreciate his effort to address my concerns, and I am grateful for the generous gift certificate he provided. I look forward to returning to the restaurant in hopes of experiencing another great meal like the first time we visited. Thank you, Mr. Wilson, for your dedication to your business and your customers.

I have never experienced such poor value for the price at a restaurant. The manager did nothing to address our cold and tasteless steaks. We will not be returning. The service was average, the atmosphere was nice, but for over $100 per person, the food was disappointing. This was a dinner meal.
