Description: Walking along the harbor on my first night I was getting pretty hungry and wanting to eat for cheap, but find something that wasn't fast food, and not knowing where I was became a huge problem. I walked up and down the harbor and finally decided to take my chance on a small restaurant called Anthony's Pier 66 and Bell Street Diner. It was attached to a more expensive looking restraint, but with a glass garage door as it's entrance I knew that I couldn't go wrong. All of the items on the menu was fish, and not being a huge fish eater I settle on the tried and true fish taco. Actually it was a Blackened Rock fish Taco for $4.99, and a soda for $1.99. Truthfully I wasn't looking forward to eating, but the restaurant was inviting. It was a small triangularish shaped room with a couple of tables and chairs and a bar over looking the pier and bay. The sun was setting, and being a sucker for sunsets and food I couldn't pass it up.
My food came out just as they were closing down for the night. I picked up my tray and sat down to eat the taco. Looking down the I immediately noticed the pineapples sitting on top. Yes, that is correct pineapples. Now things suddenly got interesting. I picked up the massive taco and bit in; it was brilliant! The tangy sweetness of the pineapple brought was a nice contrast to the fish and made for an amazing twist on a fish taco. There were also some very yummy homemade chips on the side.
This place was defiantly a find that is highly recommenced. It's on 2201 Alaskan Way near the Sculpture Garden. Outside it can be recognized by a neon fish over a sign that says Anthony's Fish Bar.
