Classic restaurant and lounge, timelessly decorated, great location. Food is generously portioned with lots of extras included, sauces tasted as though they were made in house, and the staff was excellent!

Very nice server. The food was terrible, very low quality and very expensive. We received two napkin and silverware rollup both napkins were dirty. So we asked for paper napkins. It's definitely an ownership issue. The dining room chairs, windows and carpets are very dirty.

Great seafood and service, enjoyed the seafood gumbo very much. Have eaten here several times and always enjoyed the food and view of the water.

Really good seafood
I can't believe the negative reviews. I have never been there for lunch but always for dinner. Moved to Oregon 13 years ago and have been going there at least once a month. I have never had bad food and service is very good, to good, depending on who you get. The first time we went there was on vacation in 2003. We were camping and thought we would give it a try. The food was excellent. Through the years until we moved here, we would drive with our folks from Eugene to eat there and we would drive up from Brookings Oregon during our fishing trips to eat there. I don't take quality in food lightly and I was raised on excellent food. I am a very good cook and I know quality and this restaurant has never disappointed me. I usually order the Captains platter and the wife orders fish and chips and she and I both feel that it is the lightest tasting and no grease for deep fried fish we can find that melts in your mouth and we eat at the best restaurants and this is one of them. I am really disappointed in the negative reviews I am reading and cannot understand why. Look at TripAdvisor and see my over 500 reviews across the USA and multiple states and all kinds of food. I have over one million hits and responses of thank you from people who have read my reviews and liked what they ate including glad we listen to you and not the reviews. I am in no way affiliated with any restaurant and if the restaurant is bad I will say it. Hardly any of the restaurants I have visited all across the United States have five stars from me and I have always rated this as a five star restaurant. You will be disappointed if you don't give them a try. If you find something different please list it as This Guy Was Wrong. I doubt that will be the case.

I would pass on this restaurant
Disappointed! At $32.00 a plate which isn't bad for seafood pasta I would expect silverware. NOPE Plastic utensils and a paper plate. Flavor was mediocre at best. Wife had beef pasta something. It was ok. We won't be back.
