Odd location on the dock in Florence BUT their crab chowder is so well worth making the trip! We also got some of the smoked salmon to go and it was yummy. They also have fresh seafood for sale, too. They’re only opened Friday-Sunday as I recall from 11:00-4:00 or when they sell out!

What a joke -- all they had was soup, bread and smoked salmon. The salmon was ok. We didn't have the bread. The "crab chowder" was basically potato soup. No one identifiable piece of crab in the soup. Certainly no crab flavor. Rip off.

They were out of crabs this go around, but had some crab chowder which always hits the spot. It's a thinner texture than I prefer but the seasoning is great! Getting pricey but that just seems to be a way of life nowadays.

Wonderful Crab Chowder
Novelli's was a recommended stop for chowder so on a cold rainy day we made a visit after watching the surf crash into the jetty. The street signage was lacking but once in the marina parking lot the location and "Open" sign was apparent. I was relieved that the metal gate to the dock area and restaurant was unlocked, as I was really looking forward to a hot lunch on a blustery day. No real seating was available given due to the weather, so the bread bowl chowder made it back to the vehicle for consumption. The quantity and quality was spot on, the seasoning was a little light and it was excessively salty to my taste to rate a 5th star. Your assessment may be different. In any case I would would recommend Novelli's as a place for meal on the Oregon Coast.
