We went one night while staying in Pacific City, and loved this place- there were a handful of locals in the lounge (not the restaurant part) including one couple celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary. We listened to the Hawaiian lounge singer and his sidekick drummer while we enjoyed a yummy seafood meal around a table with a fireplace in the middle, as well as watched everyone cut a rug. Everyone from the wait staff to the natives were so welcoming and we laughed most of the night - especially after the bartenders "played the bottles" to Rockin' Around the Clock :)

Good basic food, nothing fancy. Fish and chips are wonderful as are oysters. Motto is "so fresh the ocean hasn't missed it yet"
