I returned to Cioppino House this summer; I plan on visiting every summer during my trips to Oregon. The owner, Summer, and server, Jada, were personable as always. I had the beef tenderloin. The cut had no fat on it and was one of the better steaks I've had. I also had a side of scallops; they were prepared in a sauce and topped with nuts or something. The black rice was tasty. They were delicious. I like the way Summer and her servers pay attention to details, such as not holding your glass at the top while pouring liquids. The prices were reasonable. I heartily recommend Cioppino House. read more

This restaurant was the best hands down yummy delicious meal.. great service... pleasant atmosphere just overall amazing 20 gold stars

I was not prepared to eat soup with my hands... Good food, okay service. We waited a full hour after we sat for our food which is the reason for 3 stars. It was a full house by the end but there were only a couple tables ahead of us. The waitress checked in on us very rarely, but it was a full house and she was the lone waitress. Not sure if she was good and busy or inexperienced and not so busy. I got the cioppino expecting a seafood soup. They brought me stuff as if it were a crab boil. And there was crab. It reminds me of those places where they put sliders on bloody marries. It's a lot. I leave it to you if that's a good or bad thing. But if you get it prepare to eat with your hands. read more

We had been trying to get a reservation here for awhile and were finally able to. I know why it was hard to get into now. The bread with the dipping sauce was very good. The steamer clams were so good we had to get more bread to sop up the sauce that was left. Their wine selection is not extensive but what they do offer is very good. The wife ordered the salmon and just loved it. I had the lasagna and was very impressed with it. We will definitely be back. read more

Very quiet and quaint family operated restaurant. The waitress is the owner and su-chef. Her husband is the chef. Good food and you can tell it's home made. I ate the Prawn Marsala. It had garlic and Marsala on the prawns with black rice on the side. Very entertaining dish and did the job. Now to reason I gave this five stars instead of four. They went out of their way to accommodate my kids with handmade pasta with butter and cheese. We've been to restaurants here and there and they flat out tell us no. Not here though. They not only did it, they came out and asked if we needed more and how it tastes. Little to say they caught mom and dad eating it, that's how good it was. Recommending to stop by when in Eugene. read more

It was lovely to be greeted by Lexi! A young lady I met at her previous place of employment. As usual, Lexi provided excellent service! Checking in with warm bread & putting our designer bibs on to enjoy the Cioppino. Can I say, better than Scoma's in SF‼ Our charcuterie board was wonderful as well would like to see LaVelle wines on your selection.....keeping it local. Can't wait to bring my partner & other friends here! Cheers read more

We've been coming to Cioppino house since 2017. Always loved it! Our favorite special restaurant for special celebrations- birthdays, Father's Day, anniversaries and romantic nights out! Unfortunately, for the past year since Bonnie and Jack have gone- we have been repeatedly disappointed. They are always out of scallops (my favorite dish here), the bread is not as good, the wonderful olive oil, basil, peppers, roasted tomato dip ( that Bonnie created for bread- is now quite bitter. I'm so sorry to see my favorite restaurant decline. I have recommended Cioppino house to so many people over the years- I can't anymore. I guess I'll have to look for some place else. read more

Food is amazing, service is top notch. You just can't get better. Summer is so wonderful. I love to support local business.

We recently visited Cioppino House for the first time for my birthday. We loved the ambience, the decorating, the spacing of the tables, all first rate for us. The service was also quite good. The woman who greeted us was knowledgeable about the wine list and made us feel very welcome. Our server was also poised and polite despite being too young to serve alcohol. However, after our food was delivered we had to track somebody down to get some parmesan and red peppers. Where we felt a bit disappointed was the food, frankly. We split a Caesar salad- the dressing was on the sweet side, and I was unable to detect any garlic or parmesan, to ingredients that I normally think of on a Caesar salad. Not bad, but very different from my past experience. I ordered the lasagna, and to be honest, it was not good. It was overloaded with mozzarella were it took real time to chew, and there was surprisingly little pasta in it to go with the sausage. I have to say that if you're in the mood for lasagna, I'd go somewhere else. My wife's seafood pasta was good and she was generally pleased with it but felt it was a bit overloaded with sundried tomatoes. Wine, by my estimate, was a 3X markup, pretty typical these days. But $130 for dinner for two is a significant amount of money for us so we had hoped to be celebrating the food a lot more than we are. We loved the place and the people so we will definitely give it another try. read more

Reading such extremes on the reviews, I was hoping I would be one of the good ones. Well, I am. We had a very nice dinner there, great service, great ribeye and salmon. The homemade bread and dipping sauce were excellent. The ribeye was cooked perfectly as was the salmon. The only "bad" thing was, I called to make reservations for 2 but the message on the phone said only parties of 6 or more could get reservations. We took a chance and drove out there and they fit us in before another reservation. They should allow any party to reserve a table, some people don't want to wait or get turned away. It would also be nice to have a full bar but not a deal-breaker. We will be back, it was a great evening. read more

We had high hopes for this cute little Italian cafe in Pleasant Hill. I will say the bread is wonderful - warm, slightly crusty and served with butter and also tasty olive oil. However, that was the highlight of our dinner. The off-menu special of the night was spaghetti bolognese. It arrived with linguini noodles which the server first confirmed were spaghetti pasta then, after examining them, reversed course and announced they were out of spaghetti. In any case, it was far too salty to eat (and I like salt). She was very gracious and sent out some fairly gamey but otherwise tasty and well cooked lamb chops. Other tables seemed to be having mostly ribeye which may be the best option here. My dining companion tried the linguini with clams, since this is a seafood joint. It was similarly inedible. The tiny clams stunk to high heaven and the noodles were pretty much just plain. He had to eat some of my lamb chops. Dessert was a decent chocolate mousse. Service was very friendly and attentive. About $90 for two including tip. read more

drove over an hr to come at 5pm when they opened and was turned down while walking in. I'm a Puerto Rican woman in a majority white area and I'm very upset they said they were full with TWO PPL INSIDE. very disappointed and I do not recommend this restaurant. I'm visiting from NC and heard good things about this place and I can say with my own experience I do not recommend this place for visiting people from out of town! be blessed and visit another steak house! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants anywhere. Sometimes I wonder if it might be worth the drive or the ride simply to have a meal there. The food is sumptuous. The service is amazing. It is sometimes hard to get a table so make a reservation. Even the 1st come free-seat bar can get crowded. This is a small place, by intention, I think. What that means is you get their full attention. This is an amazing restaurant. read more

The ambiance is amazing and the sound of the music is amazing. I felt special from the moment I went in because of the way I was greeted with a smile. The person taking the orders was very helpful in explaining the food while assisting me with my food allergies. read more

This was he second time I've come here and I was so pleased that I had to write a review this time. I came with a group of 7 and got to see a selection of plates which gave me the lay of the land on what they offer. We all traded a few bites and I could not decide which was better. Go here now if you want some great Italian food!! I guarantee you will leave happy and full. read more

My second time eating here; 1st visit last summer 2025 was delightful! Friday night 2026 disappointing. No wine by the glass; delicious, 1/2 beet salad served on a plate so small made it difficult to eat; tenderloin ordered medium rare with a stick in the middle ( server didn't tell me about) flavor of tenderloin to die for! asparagus was raw, beyond crunchy; No cteme Brulee; ordered chocolate mouse; so much aerated whipping cream you couldn't find the small dab of mouse. read more

The salad was 'swimming' in dressing. The seafood pasta was also drenched in sauce and very few pieces of any type of seafood. This was the first time we had a bad meal there. Very disappointing. read more

Wonderful experience in this quaint little gem. Four of us hit this place on a guys trip. We ordered steamers, salads, entrees, and desert. Everything was great. The wine list was also impressive. The owner was our server, which made the experience extra special. read more

Good tasting quality food. Nice place for date night. Definitely worth going there again.

Dropped in for dinner last night and was blessed with a canceled reservation. I started with a very nice Greek salad and My wife had the Cesar salad. Dinner was great I had the ribeye and the wife had the Mediterranean seafood pasta. Steak was huge and was tender with great taste. Seafood was wonderful as well. Brie was a fantastic host and server. Topped off with nice classic creme brulee shared for dessert. We were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary had a very special evening. We will return with reservations next time. read more

This place never disappoints and the hardest thing is deciding WHICH item from the menu to choose! Yes, it's that hard! I have had the steaks, seafood, you name it and all amazing flavor prepared by a great chef and staff. Their desserts are prepared in house and have zero calories.....NOT! I recommend the Creme Brûlée or for a real surprise, the Carrot Cake. Wowser! I recommend making reservations as it is not a large restaurant but has a very intimate feel to it. read more

First time here and we enjoyed it. Had to get the Cioppino and it was great, crab scallops, prawns, clams and salmon, your choice of bread or pasta, we went with the pasta. Great salad and the carrot cake was great. We have to go back, so many other things on the menu looked great read more

A nice surprise in a strip mall area that I anticipated wouldn't offer much in terms of quality eating. The service was so delightful and welcoming. The crowd was predominantly local retirees who seemed like they're regulars. Your palette is greeted by warm bread and a homemade tapenade, it's difficult not to get over sated. The Caesar with homemade dressing and four ample-sized prawns definitely satisfied my craving for a light entree. Our favorite cioppino in the world is at Sharks Seafood Bar and Steamer in Newport, OR, and while the version here didn't live up to that high expectation, it was good in its own right. Be sure to use some of that bread to mop the delicious sauce. The very pleasant owner provided a complimentary mousse with Grand Marnier for a birthday. The Ciopinno offers a warm and inviting atmosphere and is a great way to start your road adventure through the McKenzie Pass. read more

Went there for my birthday after hearing rave reviews from family and friends. Food was ok. Nothing special and definitely not worth the prices. Service was nothing to write home about either. Took forever to get the food even though the place was almost empty. Overall it was just kinda meh. Not at all the experience I've been told others had. read more

Our first visit and was wonderful! We both had the tenderloin and was simply amazing. A generous cut and cooked to perfection. The reduction served on the side was absolutely delicious. Best Caesar salad I've had in years. The beet salad was apparently excellent as well. Dessert was carrot cake and was the perfect way to end a delightful evening. Will be back for sure! read more

Great service and food. Friendly and accommodating wait person. Cioppino was one of the best I've had and filling. The lamb chops could've used more seasoning but was tender, cut thick and done perfectly. One of the owners doubles as a wait staff and prepares the excellent accompanying sauces her self. She's a darling. The dining area only has about eight tables, so reservations are necessary. read more
