Such a gem! I would definitely return in the near future…read more The server was attentive and friendly. Quick service for food too. We ordered a margarita, chips and guac, fish tacos, and the vegan burrito. The restaurant offers vegan soyrizo! So I highly recommend for any vegans or vegetarians seeking tacos or burritos. I really enjoyed the portion size and thought that the food was affordable. The restaurant gives retro diner vibes especially with the booths.

South Bay Wild Fish House absolutely knocked it out of the park…read more I had the clam chowder followed by the lingcod fish and chips, and both were outstanding. The chowder was rich, flavorful, and loaded with clams without being overly heavy. The lingcod was fresh, perfectly cooked, and had that light, crisp batter you want on fish and chips -- not greasy, not buried in breading, just damn good fish. My wife had the fresh Dungeness crab fry bread with chimichurri sauce, and that may have stolen the show. The crab was incredibly fresh and sweet, the fry bread was fantastic, and the chimichurri added just enough brightness and flavor without overpowering the crab. What really stood out, though, was talking with the owner. He told us how much pride he takes in catching the seafood he serves, and you can absolutely taste that pride in the food. He was also genuinely great to talk with -- friendly, down-to-earth, and clearly passionate about what he does. There's something special about eating seafood at a place where the person serving it actually knows where it came from and has a hand in bringing it to the table. That kind of connection and pride is getting harder to find. Great food, fresh seafood, and great people. South Bay Wild Fish House is absolutely worth the stop, and we'll definitely be back.

We stopped in on a busy Saturday for lunch. There was a bit of a wait and service was a bit slow,…read morebut they were super friendly. This place is popular, so just be ready for that! The decor is eclectic, but really cute - there's plenty of seating, they even have an upstairs. We started with the chowder, which was more soupy than I was expecting, like not thick at all. However, it had really good flavor and was packed full of potatoes and clams. I probably wouldn't get it again though because I prefer a thick chowder. My mom got the fish tacos and really enjoyed them. I eat a lot of fish tacos and I think I prefer mine fried, but these were heaping full and a big portion. The rest of us got the rockfish and chips. The fish was tender, fresh, and delicious. I really liked the breading, it was crispy and thick, but it did fall apart super easily. These are definitely delicate. The fries were big and well seasoned. I also liked their tartar sauce a lot and they had every sauce imaginable on the table. The staff was friendly, the food was solid, and the portion sizes were big.

Terrific menu, a slew of Margarita options. 2 in our party had burritos..one poblano, one veggie. They were huge, and delicious. One got a shrimp. Taco, very good. I had the Coctel de Cameron, which was fabulous! Two huge prawns on top, large shrimp, fresh avocado, onions, cilantro in a fabulous tomato broth. I had to take half back to finish later! Service was excellent and ii thought the prices were reasonable. Highly recommend!

Awesome food truck!!! Parking lot was eh, but lots of people filled the lot to grab some food. Ate in food on the shores of the Columbia in the museum parking lot. Lapping water sounds and coast guard boat fires up and took off! Cool!! . Seemed real popular with the locals. Nice lady at the register. Red sauce was hot!!! Green sauce was mild and tasty. My wife got tamales. Very good! Tasty pork, not too much corn, not too hard, not too soft, just right! Rice was good, beans were tasty. Solid dollop of sour cream. 5 stars for a solid, dependable and economical meal. I will be back!!!

I don't pretend to understand how they are cooking and seasoning the carne asada here - if I knew…read moreI'd be making it at my house instead of writing this review. What I do know is that the only other place I've tasted it this good was Mexico. It's incredibly rich, savory, fatty, toothsome, and browned, with a deep flavor I can only describe as the equivalent of "wok hei", or, "breath of the wok" - the Cantonese way to describe the taste of the skillful, perfect cooking method itself. The other food we had was good, but the carne asada is truly exceptional, clearly the best in Clatsop County by a large margin. Visit this place and get a carne asada burrito - it'll make a believer out of you in one bite.

We had a wonderful family lunch at El Tapatio and will definitely be back!…read more I ordered the tostada, and it was absolutely delicious. I especially loved the fresh radishes and cucumber garnish, a refreshing touch. My son ordered the Colorado Burrito with shredded beef, his girlfriend had the Super Burrito, and my granddaughter enjoyed a taco with the two-enchilada combination. Everything looked fantastic. The menu is huge, with so many tempting choices that it was hard to decide. I originally planned on ordering the chile relleno but decided to try something different this time, and I'm glad I did. The complimentary chips came with two different salsas, and both were excellent. One salsa had mushrooms, onions, and what I believe were tomatillos, giving it a unique flavor that was absolutely delicious. It was a nice change from the typical restaurant salsa. One thing worth mentioning is the portion sizes. The burritos are enormous and could easily be shared between two people while still leaving everyone satisfied. We were seated in a booth overlooking the Columbia River, which made for a beautiful setting and added to the experience. A few minor drawbacks: Because it was a warm day, the doors were left open, and there were quite a few flies near the entrance and inside the restaurant. None bothered us where we were seated, but it was noticeable when entering. Parking can also be a little tight, especially if you drive a larger vehicle. There is one handicap parking space near the entrance. Families with young children should also be aware that the stairs to the lower level are directly in front of the entrance without a gate or barrier, so it's something to keep an eye on. Overall, the excellent food, generous portions, friendly atmosphere, and beautiful river view far outweighed those small concerns. We're already looking forward to our next visit.
