Slip (The), Kirkland

This tiny spot at the Kirkland Marina treats boaters to snacks and motorists to views of the boats. With only five tables inside, the full-service restaurant comes into its own on sunny afternoons when larger crowds luxuriate on the deck. The kitchen prepares its own vegetarian and shrimp burgers, which drip with sauce. And it bakes its French fries for a lower-calorie side dish, excellent with the spicy ketchup. Select a single-malt whiskey or have a cigar. The restaurant is smoke free inside. Call ahead for takeout or catering.
