Three of us enjoyed our food, all items were hot, well seasoned, and overall solid flavor. Side note, I appreciate their clam chowder didn't have bacon. Only thing I would have changed is the drink I ordered, I wasn't a fan of their seltzer. I don't know why this place has such a low rating, if it's because of slow service, we gotta realize staffing is tough all over the coast. Would come back again, regardless of the day and time.

We came in for dinner while staying the night at the McMenamins Gearhart Hotel. I made a…read morereservation about a week in advance as the Oregon Coast gets very busy during the summer months. They have a private parking lot available, plus street parking for overflow. We were greeted and seated upon entering the restaurant. The decor is typical for McMenamins locations...lots of wood, old antique light fixtures, etc. It's a warm and cozy vibe. The menu is similar to their other restaurants with a few seafood items added. We decided on the steak and mushroom bites, jojos, a cup of chowder, and the fish and chips. We enjoyed everything except the clam chowder. It was super runny and had large chunks of white onions. The onions weren't cooked long enough, in my opinion. They were still crunchy and the flavor overpowered the soup. I didn't get any seafood flavor from the clams. I definitely wouldn't order that again. I was glad I only ordered a cup. For dessert we ordered the peanut butter pie. My oh my, was it delicious! It was the star of our entire meal. I hope they never remove this from their menu! Overall a nice dinner with friendly and helpful staff. We would recommend when staying at the hotel.

We recently discovered the gem that is the Chalkboard Cafe. While staying in Seaside we were…read morelooking for a new breakfast spot and are glad that we happened upon the Chalkboard Cafe. Located near the end of a strip mall on Broadway on the Southeast side of the river, this tiny cafe and bakery serves up love and smiles. We were traveling with our two adult children who are on the autism spectrum. Our oldest is gluten free and our youngest, well he identifies as a bull moose and can be about as easy to wrangle. There were plenty of gluten free options for our oldest. Our server Zoe rocking the Wonder Woman tank was a super hero! The owner quickly tuned in to our family being on team quirky and made us feel welcome and at home. Everyone was so friendly! The food? Exceptional! This was our third breakfast out on our trip and the Chalkboard Cafe took the blue ribbon and it was not even close! My youngest had the biscuits and gravy, with a couple of eggs and a sausage patty. He's a charter member of the clean plate club and met the challenge. It was a generous portion. Our oldest had a half order of the B&G and was tempted to have one of the hot from the oven gluten free mini Marion berry pies that the owner proudly paraded around the dining room. Steaming from the oven this Marion berry pie tasted like the best of an Oregon summer. I was glad he shared a couple of bites. It was such a delight that we took a pie home for later! My wife and I shared the traditional eggs Benedict. The eggs were perfectly poached, and topped with a thick piece of ham grounded with their perfect English muffin. The Hollandaise was rich and creamy providing a wonderful coat on top of the egg. Their red potatoes were seasoned just right and were a compliment to the eggs Benedict as they would compliment most any savory breakfast. In addition to the pie we took home a couple their chocolate krinkle cookies which were not gluten free. That's the bad news. The good news is that we did not have to share them! They were heavenly! We get to Seaside at least once or twice a year and the Chalkboard Cafe will be part of our regular dining rotation while visiting. Thanks for the love and excellence! Great job and we are looking forward to our next visit!

Turns out they keep it raised until about 4 o'clock while they brew beer behind the theater, then the screen comes down later for basketball, games, and movies. Honestly, that just made me appreciate the place even more. I walk all over Seaside trying different spots, little hidden places, tourist places, all of it, and somehow this still ends up being my favorite lunch spot in town. The food never disappoints. Ever. The prices are shockingly good for what you get, and they somehow manage to get food out fast without sacrificing quality. What I love most is the space. Even when town is packed, you are not jammed in elbow to elbow with people. Families, kids, locals, everybody just looks comfortable there. Big open historic theater, great food, quick service, sports on the screen later in the day, and good atmosphere without the chaos. Screen up or screen down, this place is one of my favorites. Thanks guys for always being awesome.

Outdoor has large tables with fireplaces which would be great for large groups. We started with the fast fried Calamari, which was a good amount with both rings and tentacles. Wife had the Cioppino while I had the Seafood Pasta. The Cioppino was a bit pricey; however, was loaded with seafood and included some king crab which we had not seen at other places we have had the dish. The Seafood Pasta was rich and also loaded with seafood. Would certainly recommend if searching for seafood. Note: when we came at 6pm on a Monday we were told there was a 20min wait. We walked around the boardwalk and returned in 15 and the table was ready in less than 5min.

It was 6:30 pm on a weeknight and the place was only half full. It still took a waitress over 10 minutes to come by, where she asked if we were ready to order dinner. No water, no drinks or apps offered. We ordered a Moscato and a beer sampler along with ceviche. The ceviche was very good with a slight bite to it. The Moscato was flat and obviously opened long ago. The beers were fine. I also ordered a cup of clam chowder that was excellent. Best part of the meal. Our entrees of fried oysters and halibut fish and chips came quickly. The GF felt the oysters were too heavily battered for her taste, the fish and chips were quite good. Waitress came back to check on us when we were almost finished eating. Had to go track her down to get our check. Another restaurant that survives on tourist volume and not quality of product or service. Wouldn't go back - though the chowder was tasty.

Big Kahuna Pub and Grill has been serving Seaside since around 2007, and somehow it still feels like one of those hidden little local secrets you have to hunt down to find. The place is small, busy, and definitely popular with the locals, so things might take a little longer when the crowd rolls in, but honestly that is part of the charm. Everybody seemed friendly, laid back, and happy to be there. Five stars just for the atmosphere and kindness alone. And then there is the Bloody Mary. Good grief. The thing comes stacked with enough food to count as lunch, including the famous burger sitting right on top. It is one of those ridiculous creations that sounds crazy until you see one go by and suddenly every single person in the restaurant wants one. Their Bloody Marys have basically become coast legend status at this point. The menu itself is pretty simple and straightforward, burgers, comfort food, drinks, nothing overly fancy, just solid beach town food done right. Sometimes those are the best kinds of places anyway. If you are wandering around Seaside and want something that feels more local than touristy, give this little hidden gem a try. It may be tucked away, but they have definitely made a name for themselves.

I enjoyed a tasty IPA, but that's not enough to bring me back for an experience where I felt more like an annoyance than a customer.

Mine - club sandwich was LARGE and in charge.. on toasted wheat (you could also have sourdough) w/ turkey, ham, bacon, and 2 types of cheeses. The tomato and lettuce were crisp and fresh. Fries not my fave.. it's those ones you see very commonly in restaurants. Probably some big bulk chain company. Super greasy and crispy, not much potato.
