Gracie's Sea Hag is a must-visit for anyone visiting the coast. With famous clam chowder, Friday night seafood buffet and lavish salads (not to mention Gracie herself), it's a dinner to remember.

Very Bad Service -
TERRIBLE SERVICE!! We were fine with the 20 minute wait that they told us - we were a party of 8 and it was Friday night. But it was 45 minutes before we were seated - and then we received neither water nor menus (okay - there was ONE menu on the table!) for another half hour. The server, when she finally showed up, was abrupt and service was slow. Food was decent, but none of us in the group will go back!

Great food crummy service
We arrived at 6:30 knowing they shut at eight. We were seated at a table number 10 right by the kitchen after we pass several tables that were open we sat there for a good 10 minutes before our waitress Lola came by and said I’ll be with you soon at that point she stepped on my foot for the first time. She came back to take our orders and stepped on my foot a second time and said oh whose foot am I stepping on.? Once she came back and took our order she never asked us what we wanted to drink. We had to ask her. My wife’s diet soda was flat. There were no bubbles. It tasted like colored water so when we asked her, she combatively said it is when I poured it so she went back to the bar and got us another soda, which was fine it had fizz. When our meal came as she was about to walk away, I asked where the butter and bread was that we paid for,She answered back and said oh OK. I’ll go get it. When our meal was done, she asked to clear the plates never asked if we wanted dessert so we paid the bill and left should’ve left her a 5% tip but I did give her a 20% From all the hype. I’ve heard about this restaurant. I thought it would be way better. The food was, however, really good, but I would be in no hurry to go back

Good Food Not Worth the Long Wait and Poor Service!
The wait was understandable - we were a party of eight - and it was prime visitor time for the Oregon Coast. 20 minutes? We could handle that - even with two small children! But the 20 stretched into 40 - and when we were finally seated, we were given ONE menu - and no water - and nobody paid any attention to us for another 20 minutes! Then, after we hailed a waiter, we were given menus and, eventually water. Probably 45 minutes after we were seated, a waitress stopped by and told us she'd be "right back" Ten minutes later (by now it was 9 pm and we had a baby and a three year old in the party!) she finally took our order. Things proceeded more quickly after that - and the food was really quite good, but the wait was interminable and the service seriously lacking. Will not return - nor will any of the people with me!

Fab food all the way around and do get the Chowder.
Every trip to the Oregon Coast / Depot Bay requires a stop at Gracie's a family tradition since the 60's. Though Gracie is gone, the vibe remains the same and the food is still great and reasonable. The Clam Chowder was fantastic and always love the little packet of Oyster crackers that come with. Been a month since I visited, so can't remember exactly what I ordered. I'm thinking the fried Scallops, which were divine. Plentiful portion and all food was served HOT when it arrived. Our server was great, sadly I did not catch his name and we waited no time at all for our meal to arrive. Given we had "a little room" left for dessert, we ordered the Marionberry Cobbler. Which was served warm w/ice cream. Not great, but good. So if you are in the area, this is a must place to go for a good, hot, reasonable meal with great service and a step back in time.

Poor service
We visited on a Thursday during the late morning and they were not busy at all. We were promptly seated. We waited, and waited, and waited for a server. We were just getting ready to walk out when a female server arrived. No greeting, no introduction, she just asked what we wanted. We gave her our order and she walked off without a word. When she brought our food she didn't say a word. Meanwhile, we are watching a male server being friendly towards all his customers. When she cleared our chowder bowls she again didn't say anything. When she brought our bill, which showed the server's name as Jasmine, she again didn't speak to us. When she brought our change she said 4 words to us and then was gone. This was some of the worst wait staff service either of us had ever had. The chowder that day was only average. After the reviews I'd read, and Facebook posts I'd read, we expected much better chowder. We won't be returning.
