Take Home Fish Company

Just look for the sign saying «FISH“with an arrow pointing left as you drive into Neah Bay. It’s a small and inconspicuous place which you could easily find by the wonderful aroma coming from inside. This is by far the freshest and most delicious smoked king salmon I’ve ever eaten on Alaska or Washington! The guys selling it are very nice and laid back with samples to make you want to buy all that they have. It’s not overly salty or dry at all. Very moist and tender. If you’re in the area, do NOT miss this place!

I don’t know if you want to know what I thought when I walked into this shack, BUT HOLY SMOKES! da BEST smoked salmon I’ve ever had. it was still warm when we came up to a counter with the guy just enjoying life I think. 16 $ per pound of wild smoked king salmon. you can’t find this in any fancy pants 5star restaurant. This is a legit labor of love and salmon got its respect for sure! moist on the inside and just smoky enough on the out with a texture difference that reminds you of almost jerky. it is not dry or chewy or overly fishy). this was FRESH! come up. and pick. up a piece. As for the pricing, it was more of an estimate which I thought was Hilarious yet very fair for the quality. I got a half pound to eat with my packaged brown rice and about a pound sealed for home. I’m going back tomorrow for the MaKah Festival for more. These are way too good not to share with family and friends. plus, I feel good about supporting the tribe of this reservation. 5 star great dinner in the shady two star motel after the most amazing whale viewing at Cape Flattery. we saw at least 4 humpback or greys up close and some seals as well from the NWestern most point of the U.S. AMAZING DAY!

Wow!!! AMAZING smoked salmon! You can smell it smoking as you approach. A great little hole in the wall operation, with a fair price. We had some hot and fresh right out of the smoker. We inhaled it, it was so delicious. Only regret, we should have taken some vacuum packed to go. Friendly guys working there, too!

Some of the best food I’ve ever tasted, and hands down the best smoked salmon I’ve ever had (I’ve had a lot this summer). So good. It looks scary from outside, but just go in, you won’t regret it. Try to eat some fresh (hot) and also take some sealed stuff for the road. Eating it hot is an experience beyond description. My four kids agreed, and they don’t love smoked salmon as much as I do. This place is worth going out of your way for. The hours are weird, so maybe call first.

The best smoked salmon I’ve ever had, and I’ve tasted many. Not too sweet and very flavourful. The dried smoke salmon jerky is also amazing. My only regret was not buying more when I was there.

Get this fish and put it in your mouth.
I don’t know how else to explain it. «Best» doesn’t even begin to approach it. It looks like it’s being served out of a family’s garage. Doesn’t matter. Put it in your mouth.
I have gone to Neah Bay from Seattle solely for this fish. You should too.

From the outside, it’s just a shanty-​looking smoke shack. But the salmon is incredible. It’s a different kind than I’ve had before (Makah tribe style?). We had the smoked wild king salmon. So perfect. The taste is wonderful. Not too salty. Not too hard. Super fresh.

BEST smoked salmon you’ll ever taste, Native style. As the other reviews say, don’t let the hole in the wall appearance sway you. It’s seriously the best.

Amazing, just amazing! We have NEVER, EVER, had such good salmon! Eating this salmon was a unique life experience. Coming all the way from New York City, I am still thinking about how good it was. The owner is very friendly, we ate the first serving inside and then went outside to eat the second serving at the picnic table. What a great place!

Best smoked salmon I’ve ever tasted in my life. We were greeted with an amazing sample and left with a vacuum seal and a fillet on a plate which was gone by the time we drove away. Service was raw, to the point, down to earth, etc etcetera. I wish all businesses were more like this joint.

Ten Stars!!! Yes, that is not a mistake! This is the BEST SALMON I EVER TASTED!!! My husband went inside while I stayed outside with the doggies. He brought me out a very generous portion of freshly smoked (still hot) salmon. Oh my gosh! Heaven on earth!~ It is worth spending some time in Neah Bay just to partake of this wonderful delicacy!
The business is a little hole in the wall place. As the owner/​chef says, «Germaphobes stay away»
It’s just take out and only sells fresh and smoked salmon.
His hours are sporadic, his kitchen is unusual, but his end product is prefection!

What a hole in the wall! I almost didn’t want to walk in. And they have only one cooked product — smoked salmon. They also sell whole fresh salmon. Five stars. No more to say.
Get here before noon as they sometimes run out.

Life hasn’t been the same since being introduced to this place. Well worth planning a weekend around just to get your fill of FRESH, smoked goodness.

Best salmon I’ve ever had!

I gotta throw my five-​star review on the heap. This stuff will make you cry with joy. Whether fresh out of the smoker or in a vacuum pack to go, the taste and texture is superb.
This guy’s friendly, but if you keep putting your package down on the wet, fishy counter and asking for more paper towels, don’t say you didn’t ask for your chops to be busted. And don’t say I didn’t warn you. If in doubt – read all the signs and you’ll be amused and informed.
There’s a picnic table in the yard, if you can make it that far without gobbling it all up first! Damn, it’s good!

When you walk into this place, you know it will be good. It’s not fancy, and maybe even looks a bit run down, but there is a fire going, fish smoking, and it smells amazing. The guy smoking the salmon was very friendly and we got a nice big sample fresh from the smoker and were hooked. We haven’t tried out refrigerated smokes salmon that we brought home yet, but the hot fish right out of the smoker was easily the best smoked salmon I’ve ever had. I spent many years on the BC coast and had a lot of good salmon, but the salmon these guys prepare is up one more notch that I didn’t even know existed. This is absolutely a place you must stop at if you visit Neah Bay.

A MUST STOP!!!
The «BEST» smoked salmon I’ve ever had!!!
It doesn’t get any fresher and better than this!!!
We took it a beach near by and had a wonderful lunch…
SUGGESTION: CALL AHEAD!!! When you read the OFFICE HOURS SIGN, you will understand, why I said so! :)

The best smoked salmon we’ve ever had. It doesn’t get any fresher. Only regret is that we didn’t buy enough.

Oh god yes. You really have to, especially if you’ve been traveling in the pacific northwest for a month or so without seeing or tasting super yummy fresh salmon, inexplicably. So juicy and lovely. The place is a real shitshack, and if you are at all germophobic, move along. It’s smoky, dirty, fishy and exactly what I want to put in my mouth on the Makah res.

A must stop for fresh and REALLY good smoked salmon! Fantastic stuff!
