Fisherman's Market reviewed by Kim Washko

Fisherman’s Market and Grill, 215 W Kathleen Ave, Coeur d’Alene, 664-4800

A passion for art and children inspired Kim Washko to open Hands to Art, and it’s a passion that keeps her inspired. As well as being a business owner she is also part of the Contemporary Ceramic Art Association.

Kim and her husband Jim have recently become empty nesters and one of their favorite new past time’s is “dating,” and one of their favorite places to go is Fisherman’s Market and Grill on Kathleen in Coeur d’Alene.

The Fisherman’s Market has a casual friendly atmosphere.  “It’s like bringing the Oregon Coast to North Idaho” remarks Washko. Owners Bob and Jennifer Palm and their son Matthew all work at the restaurant and are usually seen behind the counter. Open seven days a week for lunch and dinner, the fare includes fish and chips, salads, and snacks.

A big draw to the Fisherman’s Market is it’s sushi bar with dozen’s of varieties of rolls and signature speciality, the Caterpillar Roll which consists of freshwater eel, cream cheese, avocado, cucumber, tobiko, and sweet eel sauce, people can find something to satisfy their individual tastes as well as find a healthy alternative to the usual restaurant fare.

Along with the Taste of Baja menu and sushi bar they offer numerous varieties of tartar sauce, beer, wine, and sake.  The market has been steadily growing a loyal clientele, and has become the place to go in Coeur d’Alene for fresh fish.

Kim likes the central location with easy access and plenty of parking. “The food is the draw. I love their Sushi Bar, and their Salmon Caesar Salad and Fish Tacos are unbelievable!” Don’t just take Kim’s word for it, try them yourself.  And if you’re in a rush, they offer take out. Tell them Kim sent you.
