New American Restaurants near Astoria, OR

“We often eat at Bridgewater Bistro and have had many excellent experiences there. Our most recent visit was weaker than most because they were short-handed and we waited quite a while for someone to take our drink order. The food and drinks were as excellent as always, however.“

“Food was amazing. Honestly really hit the spot and while we had to refrain from ordering while hungry and having the whole menu this was honestly the perfect amount. I had a black currant cider with my meal and it was a great match for the food.My only gripe and why the atmosphere doesn’t get 5 stars is the seating is so scattered. And since we were looking for a place to sit we ended up having to be outside. Thankfully it wasn’t raining but yeah it would have probably made it better if the options for being outside wasn’t only big tables or tables with stools so high you can’t properly eat your food.“

“Updated to add that the owner really went out of her way to make it right. We will give it another try next time we're in town.I'll start by saying that our food was mostly decent save for the burger which was extremely overdone. I don't normally get overly concerned with service but there were a few things that really irked me.First I was sent with my ($85) pickup order with no cutlery. I went back in to ask for it and was handed two forks, one of which the packaging had already been opened and was told that's all they had. Which is unfortunate because 3 of us ordered soup.I also noticed after leaving that I was charged $0.75 for dressing for my salad. I can understand a charge for extra dressing, but I did not ask for extra anything. I was also charged for sauce for chicken strips. I was asked what kind of sauce I wanted for the chicken - no mention of an extra charge.Finally I was charged $3.00 for ordering takeout. Again this wouldn't really be as big of a deal if it was disclosed prior to me arriving to pick up my order.Would not eat here again and would not recommend. Just not worth the price and the hassle.“

“My Son and Dtr-in-Law recently got married and Wahoo Charlie brought his food cart to their property for the wedding.Not only was the food excellent but they turned out a lot of food very quickly. I heard only praise from the guests at the wedding.I loved the Seared Ahi Tuna Salad and his French fries are incredible.“

“This little hidden gem was a great watering hole! Bartender was on point and dialed in… Great cocktails and brews. We did not eat the food so I cannot comment about it. But this place is tons of fun. I highly recommend it if you are in the Astoria area!“

“My wife and I were visiting Astoria for the first time - kind of celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. After going to the Bridgewater Bistro and discovering it was closed to the public for a private party, our second choice was T. Paul’s Supper Club - which was right across the street from our hotel. We split the nightly special which was a 6 oz. sirloin steak that came with 4 jumbo prawns cooked any one of 4 ways (we chose the coconut shrimp version), mashed potatoes and broccolini with carrots for the vegetable. And we also added a house salad which ended up being fantastic in it’s own right. The steak, mashed potatoes and vegetables were also fantastic and the shrimp came with an orange marmalade / thai chili sauce (or something) and that was truly out of this world. Then there was the dessert - we split the Chocolate Ganache Cake - a chocolate lava cake with pecans and caramel inside and whipped cream on top with french vanilla ice cream on the side - all drizzled lightly with chocolate and caramel sauce. Hands down the best dessert my wife and I have ever had.The atmosphere was warm and cozy and the service was excellent to boot. What more could you ask for? Nada! 5 stars does not even do justice to the excellence of this restaurant.“

“Food was good, service was terrible. Felt like she was deliberately ignoring us. Started by not getting our order correct and then NEVER coming back to check on us. Had to ask another server for refills more than once. Waited forever to get our ticket and she would not come back and get our change. Cierra needs to brush up on her service skills!“

“The food we had was outstanding! The only problem is we never got past appetizers and drinks as our waitress never came back to take our order! We were really enjoying the atmosphere and the exceptional appetizers and the waitress who was apparently new was delightful when we saw her! So we would recommend the place!“

“Very personable server. We like the way the inside is decorated with the rustic lights and such. we had drinks and an order of "dirty fries" . they were great. we will come back for lunch or dinner soon“
