    Southwestern burger
    Elena D.

    We take this road to the coast regularly and have commented every time we pass Halfway that we should try it. So we did! It was around 2 on a cold, rainy Saturday and we were the only people there. It is a restaurant/quick stop market in one and has roughly 6 interior booths for dining in (not including the nice covered outdoor area). It has a great homestyle feel, everything is worn and local. We ordered a cheeseburger and the southwestern cheeseburger. You can hear your food being made on the other side of the dividing wall. So we definitely knew our food wasn't sitting around, it was very fresh and hot. I sub'd my regular fries for tots but please know I don't think tots are a regular menu item. The server made sure to check with the kitchen when I ordered that they had them, as they were listed as a substitute side for one of the specials on the blackboard menus. The burgers were good, classic and well done. The SW one has jalapenos, grilled onions and the menu says green chiles but seemed more like a slice of grilled green pepper. I think the grilled pepper somewhat downplays the rest of the burger, I could have done without it upon reflection. I think it would have helped the flavor. But the fries/tots were cooked just right and the service was nice and quick. Probably helped we were the only people there but still. Additional note - the restroom is for paying customers only, though you can pay a fee to use it. It is accessed on the outside of the building by key and it is not heated/part of the central building so is quite cold! But was well maintained and clean.

    Southwest burger and best onion rings!

    We drove in from Florence to the Halfway Cafe, located right next to the Walton store midway between Florence and Eugene on Hwy. 126. The restaurant was recently re-opened by owners who have created a down home style vibe with food to match. We went for breakfast. I had a wonderful housemade corned beef hash with two eggs and hash browns. My friends ordered French toast and a half order of biscuits and gravy, also made in house. Everything was tasty. Big portions. I took half of mine home. I am looking forward to returning to try lunch and dinner offerings, including the prime rib dinner special on Friday nights!!

    My husband & I love this place. The service is always great and the food is wonderful. If you like homemade chili, this is the place. I've heard all their in- house soups are wonderful (particularly their clam chowder, although I'm allergic to seafood and can't eat it myself). Friday night prime rib dinners are $18 and come with a (choice of ) potato and include sauted vegetables, a large salad and dessert. Hamburgers are made with the best quality of fresh ground beef, not the frozen patties so many cafes use. If you ar heading through Walton, Oregon don't miss this little gem of a place.

    Our breakfast.. 3 HUGE pancakes... chicken fried steak scramble.. soooo good!

I wanted to say, if the restaurant is reading this: Keep her! Give the woman a raise! Seriously, she was the best, and she was very proud of the menu, the ideas behind the fresh cut fries, the sauces, the pickles... All of this made this Phat One... The best burger I ever had in my life. Sadly... It will be some time before I am back that way.

Nice small group of tables outside some of which have umbrellas for shade. The menu is very nice with a good number of options that are vegan friendly. I ended up ordering the salmon plate which had a nice portion of perfectly cooked salmon topped with a couple onion slices and some avocado. Subbed out a fruit bowl for the potatoes and toast and added a couple more eggs and a sausage patty to round out. Really good coffee that the server kept topped up for me. Very impressed for a small diner with the food prep, the atmosphere, and the Service. Everything all in with tip was about $40. There's a few places like this in cottage Grove, but I definitely recommend you give this one a try.

    The charming town of Yachats is going to make my 5-star rating average skyrocket…read more What can be said about Luna Sea? The fisherman comes every night with fresh catch. The vibe couldn't get more authentic fish house unless we were on the boat. Speaking of authentic, the "chips" are about as real English triple cooked as I've had. I haven't been to England, but these fries are better than British themed pubs I've tried in Vegas. Freshness is the difference from the fish coming out of Luna's kitchen and any other fish houses we've tried from Santa Monica all the way up to Port Angeles. That's 3 Pacific states I mentioned. Lightly fried and nicely battered. I literally felt the alpha proteins process in my body before the check even came. Flakey, buttery and tender seem like generic terms to use with fish descriptions. I truly mean it here, dude. The aesthetic is functional honest fish house. Choose your own seating, with adequate outdoor umbrella'd picnic tables with a view of the gorgeous village. There's a hybrid indoor/outdoor dining space with a transparent rooftop for a sheltered outdoor vibe and there's an indoor dining area away from the elements as well. You seat yourselves. The busy bodies working at Luna's are chipper and are all about what they do. Keep a happy staff and you see the results. They have to be feeding the staff I'm sure. Refills on time, attentive even when full. Elioy is THE MAN! We've sent our teenagers on their own to dine here. It's that kind of service. Good peeps! Speaking of our boys, this was the restaurant that they specifically ask for ever since they first tried it. Prices are great for the unique fresh quality and you can have anything fried or grilled. An honestly great authentic deal in Yachats! Driving the coast on tight wallet? You can't go wrong with Luna Sea Fish House!

This very chill restaurant, has had some of the best fish and chips that I have tasted. They had a wide variety of fish, and you can get it grilled or fried. I chose the halibut it, which was so tasty! My husband got the cod, which was also excellent, but my meal was arguably better. They have a great kids menu as well. Beer and wine. There is some indoor seating, and lots of outdoor seating. They were super busy, so service was a little slow, but nothing that was a problem. This is not a fancy place, but it sure is tasty! And that's exactly what I want when I go to that Oregon coast.

With a storm blowing in we were craving some clam chowder. Homegrown did satisfy that craving! Unfortunately, service was a little slow because there was only one waiter. Luckily, we were in no rush. Appearance - The warm string lights created a nice, cozy vibe. (Maybe the rained helped too!) Overall, the food was plated well. Taste- Garlic Parmesan fries- mmm so delicious with a yummy aioli to dip them in! Would highly recommend! Caution if you're sensitive to garlic... be aware that the parmesan can easily be mistaken for garlic chunks! Steamers- My husband got this and said it was very fresh and he enjoyed the broth. I tried it but I'm not a huge wine person and to me the broth was very heavy wine flavored. Fried Fish Cod Sandwich- Unfortunately I learned on this outing that I don't really love cod. The fish on this sandwich was not very meaty.
