    Surf and turf
    Gary A.

    We had a great dinner. The view was great and the service was equally good. Not fancy but good seafood. I enjoyed the seafood platter appetizer. My wife loved the tuna grill with sweet potato fries. I had a bite and thought it was delicious. The surf and turf special was equally good. I will go back next time in Winchester Bay.

    After pulling into town we were looking for some fresh seafood and Griffs did not disappoint. The building is a low slung one story with indoor/outdoor carpet and four top tables. When you enter you pass a takeout area. The window views are of the waterway and boats. We were greeted and seated quickly. I opted for the Cioppino and I was amazed at the amount of seafood and the flavor. YUM! Hubs had a Halibut burger and it was a large portion and perfectly seasoned. We started with grilled scallops and these beauties were huge! Definitely coming back when in WB

    Steak covered with crab, Garlic potatoes, green beans and toast.

    Great location and view. I love the specials. Great food for a reasonable price. Friendly and professional service.

    Located in the harbor. It is the perfect ambiance for a bay/harbor seafood restaurant. Staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The was food was very fresh and superb. They serve crinkle fries and cole slaw with their platters. Highly recommend getting their crab and shrimp cocktail for an appetizer, and the fried fish an entree.

    Aye, a hearty bowl of Cioppino matey!

    This Cioppino was insane! So delicious and packed with fresh seafood. Griff's at Winchester Bay, Oregon for a winning lunch.

    Fish & shrimp combo with fries, coleslaw and tartar and cocktail sauces

    Great fish & chip place. Fast, friendly service, with good food and generous portions. And a great window view over the water!

    A beautiful lakeside view!

    The food was 10/10! There is a beautiful waterfront view and we saw squirrels, seagulls, and other wildlife while we ate! We ordered 3 pc fish and chips & it was the best fish and chips we've ever had! The clam chowder was very good too and the staff was fast and friendly.

    Not the best or worst seafood, their food is very lightly salted. Price is very fair.

    Food great. Don't go if you are in a hurry not that kind of place. Sit by the water and just relax. Takes a while because they MAKE it.

    Great place to eat. There is a small outside seating area, where our group of 6 humans and 4 canines ate. The food was great.

    I love the seafood soup that they serve as it is not fried seafood I have been looking for in two days. Great view too.

    We went here for an anniversary dinner. The atmosphere is dark and cozy, more like a pub. We sat at…read morea table next to the bar. The ceiling looked like old decorative tin tiles. We had the crab cakes appetizer. I had a salmon dinner, my husband the sirloin tips. Our meals were very good. We had delicious desserts à la mode, one was like a moist chocolate brownie with Icecream and strawberries, one a fruit creme brûlée. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful. He took our anniversary photo for us. We will like to come back again. Only other comment I'd give is that the stand alone tables, inside, seemed rather close quartered when all seats were used. There is seating outside but it was rather windy the evening we went so we ate inside.

    (Edit, to say that we appreciate Kismets Landing had a bad night last night and because they…read morereached out to make things right. Not everyone does this, so it is appreciated. We will return when summer winds down. So, please give them some grace.) My earlier post: First of all, we did make reservations since it is summer and quite busy this time of year; and let me say I have been to Kismets three times before and I was very happy. We have recommended it to several people we know, and brought our friends to dine last night, July 2nd. We were so disappointed. And we were embarrassed, having talked it up to our friends. Things started out okay; our waitress seemed young and possibly inexperienced, but we were okay with her lack of personality (no smile, no enthusiasm.) We had wonderful Brussels sprouts appetizer and the sushi roll was perfect, very beautiful to look at and equally delicious. I won't fault the guy who made them. But to begin with, we were given the small containers of wasabi and pickled ginger and chopsticks but no individual plates to enjoy the appetizers or sushi, and our waitress was not anywhere to be found for at least half an hour, but probably more. Our dinner finally arrived one hour and twenty five minutes after we had been seated. It was mostly good, but the huge lag in time and apparent indifference of our waitress really took the shine off the entire experience. My kismet tips had lovely flavor but was not evenly hot; for instance, some of the mushrooms were cool to lukewarm. My greatest gripe is the absolutely terrible service though. I cannot comprehend how the owner could be present in that room the entire time we were there and hardly looked at us at all and apparently was unaware of how poorly we were treated. (Was our order lost? why on earth did it take so long to be served?)
