    Clam Chowder bread bowl
    Sammy E.

    The food was really good! Service was okay, server could've been a little nicer honestly but wasn't rude either. The show stopper for us was the clam chowder. The taste was really good!

    Honestly had a blast here. Very good service with amazing recommendations. I love the overall ambiance of the restaurant right next to the ocean. The chatter of all the older gentlemen and gentlewomen. The fish and chips are splendid and my favorite item. The clam chowder... DELICIOUS but of course it is!! The fries were also such good quality tenders. The alcoholic drink was absolutely so delicious too!!

    My third review in so many years because I am literally running out of the new restaurant to review. Since we played golf in freezing weather, we wanted to warm up before trying out nearby restaurants and Azalea's annual 3 million lighting ceremony tonight. The service and tasty cocktails were amazing and thick, starchy Clam Chowder was the perfect way to get warm. The craft hazy IPA was served chilled and sweet. Fill it to the brim yes sir!

    (Updated to show pictures) Nice day down in Brookings, we had lunch at Fat Irish Pub down by the harbor. Cute and cozy little place, we chose to sit outside so we could bring Sophie on the patio with us. We split the Ruben, it was packed with house-cured corned beef, swiss, sauerkraut & a delicious handcrafted Louie dressing. Grilled to melty perfection on marbled rye. I ate mine with a side of clam chowder and the man opted for their wedge cut fries. I washed mine down with a local apple cider they had on tap and I can't remember what Pinky had. It was all very tasty and of course Sophie made friends with everyone on the patio.

    Tartar sauce. It's what they give for 2 large pieces of fish. I ordered 4, and the owner refused to give me an additional condiment

    I ordered a large 4 piece fish and chips. When I got back to the hotel, I realized that there was a tiny container of tartar sauce, which might be enough for 2 pieces. I politely drove back to the restaurant and the owner told me I had to pay extra for an additional tartar sauce. I said that is maybe enough for 2, and he just rudely looked at me and basically said I had to pay. Wow! It's a condiment and it's the principal of the matter.

    Dear Fat Irish Kitchen and Pub, THESE are fish tacos! Not what your served when we were there recently. Please improve.

    Famous and delicious Bloody Mary!

    Service is SLOW. Took about 10 minutes to get our drinks. Also the food is average, nothing to brag about.

    First place we tried when we got to Brookings…read more Great food and service. Came here with the family. We got 2 pizzas that were shareable sizes. We got a margherita and all meat. Both really good and made in their stone oven. We also got the calmari for appetizers. Calamari cooked perfectly, not rubbery. Light batter, crispy, and seasoned really well that gave it great flavor. Others in the group ordered a clam chowder bread bowl, chicken Parmesan, fish & chips and shrimp & chips. The overall consensus was good. Casual atmosphere and perfect location. It's at the boardwalk near an arcade. During the day, there's also ice cream and coffee nearby. Couldn't get any pictures.

    My husband and I moved to gold beach a couple of years ago and are slowly making our way through…read moreall of the amazing restaurants on the coast, this was our first time trying Zola's on the water. We came down to Brookings to take care of some business and decided to stop in for lunch and a drink afterwards. We weren't especially hungry so we ordered our usual favorites (clam chowder for me and steamer clams for the fellow) that combo usually helps us decide whether or not we want to return, without breaking the bank on a new spot. Our server was delightful, she was kind and attentive without being overbearing. Our order took a little longer than expected for what we ordered but we didn't mind, we had some nice blackberry cider they had on tap to tide us over. I was a little disappointed when our meals came out and I didn't get a slice of bread with my bowl of clam chowder like the fellow did with his steamers, but we were able to buy a half batard for $5 and that was perfect for us to split. It came out warm with a side of butter and complimented the chowder much nicer than the oyster crackers they originally brought out would have. In fact I recommend getting the bread if you order the chowder, it almost stole the show. The chowder was delicious, could've been warmer but still very tasty, the potatoes were cut super thin, and the clams were plump and tender and tasted fresh, they did add bacon but not in overwhelming amounts, and I thought it was spiced perfectly. I only added a few shakes of red pepper flakes to finish it. The fellow thought his steamer clams/mussels were marvelous, with a very flavorful broth, and he loved the fact that he was allowed to mix them. They made a good first impression on us, we will definitely be returning for dinner and ordering a couple of pizzas and perhaps a salad as well. Who knows, they may prove to be one of our new favorite spots.

I had the pork chop which had the perfect compliment of the apple compote and my wife had the stuffed chicken breast. Bot were awesome.

    Okay, not "bad" and not "great."…read more Started with the chowder which was too smooth and the flour was overpowering. I was hoping for "great" in a coastal town, We ordered steamers as an appetizer and it came out with our dinner, not ideal. Good flavor but super slimy. That's either age or not cleaned well but either way they weren't great. I ordered the Yellowtail and it was great. I had the sweet potatoes on the side and they were the best thing any of us had. The boy ordered pasta which was kind of forgettable and my wife ordered the Gnocchi, which she said was good. (It was good enough she wouldn't share). :) The place is kind of a dive, you walk through some random slot machines and a little bar to get to the actual dining room which is decorated straight out of the 70's. That's less of a deal since you don't eat ambiance, Next time I'll try the pork chop (they were out) as it looks delicious.

The place was super busy when I arrived there were people waiting outside, which is always a good sign but since I was dining solo, I got seated right away with no wait at all. The atmosphere inside is warm, cozy, and welcoming, with really cool décor featuring cars and car photos that give the restaurant personality and a fun, nostalgic vibe. It feels comfortable rather than fancy, the kind of place where you can relax, sip your coffee, and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. I ordered the shrimp and Swiss cheese omelette with jalapeño, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked. The portion was generous, and it came out piping hot and surprisingly fast considering how busy they were. The coffee was amazing too rich, fresh, and exactly what you want with a hearty breakfast. What really stood out was the service. The servers were attentive, friendly, and on top of everything despite the crowd. They made sure coffee stayed filled, checked in at the right moments, and kept things moving smoothly without making it feel rushed or chaotic. Another big plus: the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. It's rare to find a place that balances great food, fast service, cozy ambiance, and affordability this well. Overall, I'd easily rate it around 4.5 stars. If you're driving along Highway 101 or anywhere near Brookings, this spot is absolutely worth the stop. It's busy for a reason great food, great vibe, and great service all in one place.
