Very nice interior (recently redone?) and outstanding view. We enjoyed the coconut prawns and the thick, creamy clam chowder. Every employee we encountered was cheerful as well as efficient.

We came in for appetizers on whim. Anthony was our server. He was very attentive server. He made our experience even better for a fabulous sunset nosh and drink. Did I mention the food and libations were great too?

Last week we took my son to The Boardwalk for dinner. We love a meal with a view and this one has the best in Seaside. We were seated at a window table and had printed our a coupon for a free appetizer with an entree. We chose The Coconut Prawns which were delicious and our server was very personable... More

It was a beautiful day in Seaside so the view from our table of the beach and sunset were spectacular. The service of the staff was exceptional, especially our waitress, Catherine. She seemed to recognize and meet our needs before we asked. Our host uses a wheelchair and she thought of everything to make him most comfortable. Their salmon dish... More

The dinners were cold when they arrived and the food was very salty. The staff was friendly and the view is amazing. Next time I'll go for wine and the view and have dinner elsewhere. I don't know if they've changed hands recently, but this was a very different experience than we've had previously.

Please see my last review in September, 2012. Everything I mentioned then is still true! LOVE their clam chowder!! That with a salad (my fav is the lettuce wedge with bacon, tomatoes, and bleu cheese dressing), and bread is for me the perfect meal while gazing out at the beach and watching the people go by. I also enjoyed the... More

The view is spectacular. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food is average and quite costly for the portion size. The adult beverages are a very weak pour. Will we go back? Of course! Like I said... the view is spectacular!

we had the clam appetizer, fish and chips and King Crab legs. The food was excellent and the view was beautiful. For dessert we had a build your own s'mores plate where we got to roast our own marshmallows over a small flame. I would definitely go back. Our server Kathryn was great.

Dear Allie L. Thanks for taking the time to share you experience. The s’mores are certainly unique and what a great way to enjoy an oceanfront restaurant then to roast your own s’mores while inside being all comfortable. Come see us again. Sincerely, Shaun W General Manager More

We stopped in during Spring Break after enjoying the attractions in Seaside. We were only planning on having something to drink and an appetizer so we could enjoy the beautiful view. When we walked in, we were not greeted just abruptly asked "How many?". We were given menus but then waited over 15 minutes for a server. When our server... More

Dear jobiemom, I do apologize if this is the experience you received here. I would really enjoy a conversation with as I am a little confused. We do not serve hot prawns at this location and there is no microwave on our kitchen line. We also have zero plastic plates for the servers or kitchen employees to put anything on.... More
