We loved this place and ended up visiting twice during our stay in Rockaway Beach! The service was…read moreexcellent both times, and the prices were very reasonable. On our first visit, we had the fish tacos and elk burger sliders, and both were delicious. On our second visit, we tried the clam chowder. After tasting chowder all along the Oregon Coast, Sand Dollar's was our favorite. It wasn't overly thick, the subtle hint of bacon added great flavor, and it was served piping hot. My husband said the clam chowder was superb. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Rockaway Beach. And you can't beat the view!

You can't beat the view with this place right on the beach. Plus, it happened to be a beautiful day. When we walked in it felt very comfortable and more modern than I was expecting but had a comfortable ambiance. The service here was great. We were greeted right away. Our waitress was fantastic as well. I went with the Rockfish Sandwich which came with 2 pieces of rockfish, tartar sauce, creamy slaw, lettuce, and onion. I went with no tomatoes. Honestly, this tasted great. The fish was fried perfectly, not greasy at all. The fish appeared fresh as well. This came with battered fries. My youngest daughter had the grilled cheese, which she easily took down. No complaints. The menu may have changed, but we had some prawns in a chili sauce that tasted great, and my wife and other daughter had a salad with shrimp. This tasted great as well. The shrimp had a nice flavor and were not over cooked. It was the perfect addition to the salad. It was a little more on the pricier side, but everything is getting more expensive now days. Overall, we had a great experience. We had a great view, everyone working there was friendly, and our meal tasted great. The Sand Dollar is certainly worth a try.

I had a shrimp po boy with ranch instead of the spicy sauce and my partner had a bacon bleu which was large and tasty. The fries were really good as well. I didn't get a drink this time since I was driving, maybe next visit. The ocean is nearby so there's no reason to come in here crabby. Enjoy the horse races on the TV and order from the menu and you're golden. Tip nicely and be a good human being is all that is asked.

I ordered the Wet Ribs plate with their BBQ sauce (as opposed to the garlic Parmesan). It came with a few sticks of carrots and celery (but no ranch, which would have been nice) and an abundance of coin-shaped tater tots. I expected 3-4 ribs at most because this dish only cost $18 and a half rack of ribs was $26, I think. Well I got about 6 ribs that were incredibly delicious and full of meat. Every bite was a yum yum moment. My companions got the pulled pork sandwich (large and delicious, mounds of tater tots) and the poke bowl in the appetizer size. Also delicious and sized just fine.

It took over 10 minutes, and I honestly thought our order had been forgotten. It looked like someone new was being trained, which I completely understand, being short-staffed can be tough. However, if someone is new and still learning, they should be supported and trained, not spoken to harshly. She genuinely looked confused, and the way she was being spoken to was uncomfortable to witness. My two teens also felt uncomfortable. Because they seemed overwhelmed, I didn't ask about the delay. The shakes themselves were good, although one was already melting by the time we got it. Overall, I hope the team can work on creating a more supportive environment for new employees.

Their draft beer selection is also deceptively simple. They start with Bud Light, which is probably fine for many; but the selection also includes several local brews, all of which are cold and excellent. Exhibit A: The house salad. $4. Those hoping for iceberg lettuce and some shaved carrot will be sorely disappointed when they are presented with a bed of spinach and baby greens, shaved cheese, black olives and a tasty dressing. Exhibit B: Clam Chowder - tasty, simple, filling, great. Exhibit C: The Burger. Nothing short of stellar. I had mine plus bacon - I am not exaggerating when I say this was the best burger I've had in years. The service was friendly, quick and attentive. Perfect.
