I had the grilled chicken with sautéed vegetables and garlic, mashed potatoes, covered with a yummy sauce, well my husband had a similar dish, but with grilled pork, which was a special for Father's Day.

Highly recommended for visitors and residents alike!

Overall the food was good, not extraordinary, just typical coastal food. We ordered the oysters on the half shell, which were very small for the price (reason for the lower overall rating) but very flavorful and the fried cod fish tacos were also good, with plenty of flavor in their pico and slaw. The seafood boil was what you can expect in a small town, little flavor and seasoning, but with a side of melted butter it all comes together. I was scrapping as much as I could out of the Dungeness legs, which were amazing. Hubby loved the stuffed salmon, mentioned the pilaf was bland, but the server did a great job of providing sides of spices and sauces before we had to ask. Overall, for a dinner after or before the casino, it fits the occasion. Have to update this review, the seafood boil gave me food poisoning and I've spent 2 days puking even the smallest amount of water up. It was the only meal my fiance and I did not share the entire trip and he didn't get sick. Would not recommend this restaurant, but the service was kind.

Seagulls soar by the window and peek at your dinner (separated by glass) and the service is attentive but not overbearing. There's a piano in the lobby and unobstructed views of the coast and when you look down, the sand is right there! Would love to stay here one day. The food was flavorful. I'd rate this overall a 8.8/10. The crab cakes and steak were both house made and very fresh. The steak was perfectly made and bursting with flavor, (T-bone pictured). The side salad was heaping and great to share. The french onion was flavorful but we added some salt and pepper for ourselves. The potatoes bravas were *not* papas bravas and more like breakfast potatoes so if you're craving tapas like potatoes, I would advise considering abstaining from ordering, perhaps. For dessert, the Marion berry cobbler was incredibly fresh and tart. The ice cream paired very well with the Marion berry and pecan crust. I'd love to try the crème brûlée, key lime pie, and lemon cakes one day! What a special place. Took a day trip from Portland to see the ocean, and this was so lovely. We were seated immediately at the bar at sunset on a Sunday afternoon after stumbling across Fathoms. My personal tip for the ladies: the ladies restroom in the bar area has the best views in the house. I snuck a couple trips there to see the sunset from there. (Sorry to the boys, your restroom looks at the parking lot apparently) Will be coming back, this is a gem.

The cons: my server, the food was ok, being ignored by staff for 5 plus minutes. Breakfast: coffees were good. The food tasted ok, but the hash browns had an old oil taste that lingered way too long. Both of us didn't feel great the rest of the day. Server was there to do her job. Dinner: specialty drink was amazing. Clam chowder had a too think paste taste. Steak bites were good, yet nothing I would be craving to eat again. The cheesecake- delicious! Server, again just there to do her job. No personality. She forgot part of my order and I had to remind her. (She did the same thing with the other table) Morning coffee bar: it opens an hour before the restaurant. stood there for 5 plus minutes, one person filling water pitchers for the soon to be open restaurant that said hi, but that's it. No, let me find someone for you. They will be right back.... There were sugar packet wrappers so I know someone did get a coffee.... I watched a girl get dropped off for work out front, then when she came up with her jacket still on she stopped and asked if I needed help. Super nice, made my coffee.... It was super confusing and if it wasn't for that employee coming in who knows if I ever would have gotten my morning coffee.

For starters we ordered the oysters on the half shell to start, and cocktail sauce is all they had. We also shared dinner salad and bowl of clam chowder which came with delicious sliced sourdough bread. The clam chowder wasn't as good as we were hoping. For our dinner meal we shared the SEAFOOD COMBINATION PLATTER $39.95 A whopping portion of the ocean's finest edibles combining steamed clams, fried jumbo prawns, oven baked oysters, grilled salmon, fried bay scallops, clam strips, calamari and cod. Served with French fries. There were two of everything except steamer clams, clam strips, 1 salmon and 1 cod. The prawns weren't jumbo. Over all we enjoyed ourselves.

The accompanying cole slaw was excellent and the fries were very good...skinny style. The two friends had the fish and chips and I sad the prawns. So good. We will be back, as we now found a low key place that serves great fish.

Three double thick slices of their Wildflower bread with a small fruit garnish. (I was going to be hiking out to the God's Thumb and figured lots of carbs were in order.) The wait staff was friendly and I was seated right away. So why only four stars? The building, actually a repurposed house has marvelous bones and the woodland setting out the back is dreamy but the interior decor takes little advantage of this and for this reason pulls down the ambience of the establishment. Don't get me wrong it's spacious, clean, and tidy, it could just use a little more decor that captures the setting and the cottage feel of the building, IMO. Additionally the menu is a bit sparse for such a nice place that does its own baking. I believe they used to offer crêpes. The beverage menu is begging for a proper set of specialty espresso coffee and tea offerings. And yes I would go again.

We arrived early on a Saturday afternoon and were told we could seat ourselves anywhere in the bar, so we snagged the best table with a great view. I couldn't believe that a restaurant so close to Surftides and right on the ocean has such an impressively affordable drink menu--I mean, seriously, where do you get a $10 Old Fashioned these days? The bartender came over quickly and took our order for two Old Fashioneds and a bowl of chowder. Upon delivering the drinks, she mentioned she was new and wasn't sure if she'd made them exactly right. They were actually good! She just missed the cherry and orange essence, but for $10, I'm certainly not complaining. The clam chowder, however, was the star of the show. Seriously, it's the best clam chowder in Lincoln City right now. I am picky and not easily impressed, but this was perfect. It was clearly fresh--rich and velvety without being pasty or like 'sipping on gravy.' The clams were tender and provided a perfect balance of rich texture and delicate, briny flavor. We will definitely be regulars whenever I need a chowder fix!
