The LOCAL OCEAN EXPERIENCE

Where the locals come for
exceptional seafood.

From the edge of the wild Pacific Ocean,

We source direct from local Oregon fishermen to connect you with extraordinary seafood experiences.

Located on Newport's Historic Bayfront, watch commercial fishing vessels come and go as you enjoy a seasonal menu showcasing local fish, crispy crab cakes, and bounteous seafood stews.

Downstairs, market-style dining is accented with a central open kitchen and floor-to-ceiling windows that afford views of the fishing boats in the harbor and the Yaquina Bay Bridge in the distance.

Upstairs, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean to the Coast Range are the backdrop to a more intimate dining experience, including a cozy lounge. The bar menu features inspired craft cocktails, local brews, a solid wine list, and boasts an extensive non-alcoholic beverage program.
