Voting Home / Whiskey Creek Steak House
Nominated for: BEST Steakhouse
Our restaurant is not only the site of great food, but a lot of colorful history as well.
Once inside, take a moment to look around. As you can see by the photo gallery on the walls, the existing building was Keyport's first mercantile in 1927. In 1934, the owner turned the store into the “Keyport Tavern”. (Rumor has it he was quite a gambler and lost and re-won the tavern on several occasions!) The tavern was renamed “The Torpedo Shop” by the next owner, a Navy diver.
In 1995, the present owners, Patrick and Karen Ziarnik, transformed the sixty year old tavern into a family restaurant fashioned after favorite restaurants in Dallas and Tucson.
Staying true to Whiskey Creek's historic past, the décor reflects a unique, yet warmly inviting feel of a rustic mountain cabin. A fireplace now stands instead of the old juke box and you'll notice a “No Alcoholic Beverages” sign from the Prohibition years. The beautiful back bar, built in Europe in 1893, sailed around Cape Horn bound for a Ballard apothecary before it was moved here in 1934.
Some things never change or go out of style, though. Whiskey Creek Steakhouse's popularity owes its success to the owners' steadfast commitment after years in the hospitality business:
Provide great food with friendly faces and excellent service. Then serve it all up at comfortable prices!
Come on in; we know you'll be back again and again!

They have the best steaks and prime rib in Kitsap County! They do need to bring back some of the appetizers they had a couple of years ago - the halibut pieces and the spicy shrimp skewers were our favorites - almost a meal in by them selves! The salads and breads are fantastic also.
