I would love to give this restaurant a higher rating. I am a foodie and felt that the wine for archipelago was great, the food was a bit light on portion (still hungry) and a bit daring for my taste (chicken feet...). One of my husband and myself favorite things to do when we go on vacation is to find good restaurants. We had our whole trip booked and my husband's 45th birthday we were schedule to eat at Duck Soup. But, the head chef of Coho, Samantha Dechristopher, offered to come and cook for us on his birthday. We gave her some money in advanced and kept in touch via text. The day of his birthday she said she would be there around 7:30 PM. We text with her throughout the day joking with the family that she might not show, but immediately saying no one would do that to someone on their birthday. 8:00 PM rolled around and she text us that she was running late, our reservation at Duck Soup was at 8:00 PM so we were now committed to this new plan of Samantha Dechristopher making birthday dinner. She texted at 9:56 PM she said she was still stuck at the restaurant "for a hot minute" (the restaurant is not open on Sundays) At 11:00 PM when we sent a text to her saying Are you not coming? She had shut her phone off. Our elderly parents and party of eight went to bed hungry. My husband did not get a birthday dinner/dessert. On San Juan Island everything closes by 9:00 PM, there is not a single grocery store or gas station etc to get food. Coho's head chef, Samantha Dechristopher is a flake and if I owned the restaurant I would not continue to employee someone who treats clients so unprofessionally.
