Cafe Nola is good, at the corner of Winslow Way and Madison Street, a few minutes walk from the ferry dock.

I second Cafe Nola. If the Big Star Diner hadn't closed, I'd also recommend it. Cafe Nola and Big Star have both been featured on the Food Network. Big Star evidently reopened under new name & management this year--Ritchie's 305 Diner (305 Madison Ave N, walking distance from the ferry too). I haven't been there since the new owners took over, so I can't say if it's as good as Big Star, but Cafe Nola is great!

Cafe Nola is good but pricey and not really kid friendly.
In the Pavilion (on Madison) is Simon's for Chinese and Spice Route (formerly Gandhi's) for Indian (on the second floor). Comparable, if not a little less $ and attitude, than Nola's. If you're just looking for dessert, Mora's Ice Cream behind Blackbird is just heavenly. Blackbird has great coffee and treats, and their flatbread pizza is really good.
Post note: Spice Route has a decent lunch buffet from, I think, 11am till 2pm.

Happy to hear that Spice Route is good. My husband & I have been missing good Indian food since moving here, and we'd been planning to try Gandhi's sometime soon--I didn't know the name had changed.

Cafe Nola was amazing...but they're right, pricey.
Part of that might be because we kept ordering more dishes, it was so delicious!

Madrona Waterfront cafe is family friendly and is on the water which you are able to watch the boating activity. Bistro Pleasant Beach is walkable and good if still open for lunch.

Edna's is good but you may need to drive or take a cab (BTW: cabs take a few folks and drop them off one at a time-not always the most direct route to your destination)
