Five dishes and all three desserts were absolutely stunning and perfect. Service was wonderful, gorgeous quiet spot on the river. Do not miss this place if you’re in the area.

One of the best gems in the Pacific Northwest. Recently we have gone back to dining out after a long break due to COVID. This meal was ten times better than the other fine dining we have had in Portland and a third the cost. I don’t have pictures of our starters because we were so hungry after a long day and they we absolutely fantastic. We had the Safron Walla Walla Soup and the Fresh Burrata and Grilled Bread. The soup was so good that my wife ordered another cup. We ordered the Rockfish Fish and Chips, the Crab Mac and Cheese with Shrimp, and the Ravioli. The Rockfish crust was crisp and good. The handcut fries were amazing. My daughter said the the mac and cheese was one of her favorite meals of all time. The crab was sweet and the shrimp were huge. The pasta was tender with some chew. Same with the Ravioli. We were all so impressed with all the food that I had to try the clam chowder which was just as good as everything else. After dinner we were so full from trying everything else that we didn’t eat desert. The only thing I could say was that it would have been nice to see something with chocolate on the desert menu. We were so thoroughly impressed that if we are ever in Pacific City, Lincoln City or Tillamook area we are going here again!

Great place for dinner, put in a reservation for sure, they only have like 11 tables in the 2nd floor of a river cabin. Pretty cool. Great food and great service. The wife had the Paella and me the fish tacos, yummy dinners, don’t miss this place

Came here on Friday night just wandering through town on vacation, and we absolutely struck gold. Some of, if not the best service and food either of us have ever had. Definitely the best oyster shooters, calamari, fish and chips, AND paella we’ve ever had. Our server (I’m so sorry we never got her name, she had the lighter hair of the two servers that we saw) was extremely professional and knew exactly what we needed when we needed it. We were both extremely impressed, everyone working here should be proud of what they’re doing.

One of our favorite restaurants in Pacific City, cozy, great food, wine, cocktails, and friendly service. I had the chicken and dumplings which came in a large hot skillet and was surprisingly spicy but very good! Though I shouldn’t have I ate the whole thing . My hubby enjoyed the mussels which also came in a hot skillet with Thai curry sauce. Bread was excellent. Recommend you make a reservation, especially on the weekend.

We ordered takeout due to the reviews about limited seating, but we were not let down! My husband had the pozole, it was delicious! We searched all over pacific city to find some fresh, flavorful seafood and the Riverhouse Nestucca was exactly what we were searching for! I had the rockfish tacos, and they were perfect! Great portion sizes and overall a very pleasant experience! Takeout was just as nicely presented as dine in!

Our server Charlie was friendly and excellent. Our reservations ran a bit late (8:30, sat around 9) both nights we went, but Charlie gave friendly, welcoming service despite the lateness. The food was excellent as well, so we went back the next night. Definitely an enjoyable experience.

While visiting the area, we got lots of recommendations for this restaurant. To say I am extremely disappointed is an understatement. The food was okay, nothing special and fairly overpriced, but not bad food. The customer service was atrocious. From the minute we sat down our server had an obvious bad attitude that ruined our entire experience. Our group was polite and quiet but it felt like we were treated poorly because we were a group of people in our 20’s (too young to be worth their time). When we asked to split the check we were told it could only be split two ways. When we went to tip, they failed to mention the automatic 20% gratuity that they already added to our table’s bill (it was in small print on the menu which did not stay at our table). I have never been to a restaurant that added such a high automatic gratuity with such awful service. Our drinks were never refilled, 2 of our orders didn’t come with bread like they were supposed to. And overall the attitude of the server was over the top rude. We will not be recommending this restaurant to anyone.

Visited in July 2023. We were seated at our reservation time but were not acknowledged or provided waters for 14 minutes. An apology was provided by the hostess, who stated she forgot to write us down so the server did not “know we were here.” How can that be the case when this restaurant is only one room and the server has walked by multiple times?
