Awesome restaurant with delicious food. Clean, and the staff was polite & professional. I highly recommend the Halibut Special for dinner. Scallops dinner was also done perfectly. Been here 3 times now and every meal I have had has been delicious, and all 3 have been something I would go back for.

My wife and I went there for our 19 yr Anniversary. Funny thing is we don't even eat fish!! I'm allergic to Shellfish and most fish except a few. I got the Fish-N-Chips and my wife got the Gnocci. The presentation was out of this world and the quality was amazing and well worth it! The prices were reasonable and it is a great small, local and quaint restaurant. I would go there again for sure.

It's casual but their food is excellent. I've been here twice and it was very good both times. Good sized portions (I took some home). Really enjoyed the mustard vinaigrette dressing. I think they prefer if you make reservations.

Spectacular meal. Service was on point. I wish I would have remembered her name, but the waitress the evening of our dinner (9/28/23) was great. Excellent small talk and recommendations, and perfect amount of being there when needed, and being gone when not. Halibut special was super! Yummy clam chowder. By the way, even though we visited on a random Thursday relatively late at 8pm so had no wait, I can understand why there might be a wait on popular meal times such as weekend evenings. Totally worth it.

Our go to dinner spot in Lincoln City. The duck is out of this world. I hear the owner is a chef, and you can really see the care im quality in every dish. Key lime pie was also delish.

The owner and the server were delightful. You know they appreciate your business. Food was very good and the whole experience was a pleasure. We had an early dinner and halfway through our dinner the place was packed. Great find.

We had a reservation, and were seated promptly. The service was fast and efficient. I had the scallops, my wife had halibut. Both excellent!

This spot was a great choice for a delicious meal and tasty cocktails. The hostess was very welcoming and seated us immediately. The place was busy but no waiting. The menu had a variety of offering but very unique ones. At first we were unsure what to order but our server helped us with honest steering we enjoyed. I had Gnocchi and my daughter the Rockfish. Overall good meals. I also had a pear martini that I highly recommend made with Oregon vodka. The bench booth could benefit with padded seat cushions but otherwise worth the stop.

We had the special halibut which was simply divine. Service was excellent and such a pleasant experience all around. Everyone at nearby tables seemed delighted with the food. Highly recommended.

The food was excellent, 5 stars ?????. I had a bowl of clam chowder and Fish & Chips. I requested that the French Fries be done a little on the crispy side and they nailed it spot on. Their fish was some of the best I’ve ever had. The coke-slaw that came with the lunch was excellent. That meal filled me up for the rest of the day. It was a one day trip to the beach then back home so I did not have an opportunity to eat there again before leaving town to go back home. I highly recommend them for your next meal when visiting Lincoln City. The funny part of this is I live 100 miles to the east so if I want Fish & Chips or other seafood-? It’s road trip time???. I can be down there in 90 minutes ??.

Good is excellent! Sade served us with enthusiasm and smiles. It's clean and does not have the stale stink that greets you when you enter Pier 101. Place may lack decor, not overall I'm very satisfied. Fish batter is not too thick and crispy, oysters are great, fries were fresh and crispy. You should check this place out.

Could not believe how rude Annie was to us tonight. My entire family and I have been coming to this place every trip we make to Lincoln city (about 10 times a year) for the last 2 years. My dad and I came in tonight to have dinner and the only table available was a corner table which is too small for us so I requested a different table but they were all reserved. Not a problem we decided we would make reservations and come back tomorrow. On our way out the waitress Annie smirked and said “wow they showed us didn’t they” in an extremely rude tone. When I went back in to confront her about it there was no apology no customer service at all. Very disappointing

Have eaten here many times over the years and this is the first time they missed the mark. Husband and I always get the fish and chips, but ask that the fish be cooked in cornmeal batter which they usually do a phenomenal job at. This last time however, the portion size of fish was very small for the price, and the was fish slightly undercooked. This is always one of our favorite go-toos whenever visiting the coast, so we won't let this one unfavorable experience stop us from eating at the Blackfish again. Their coleslaw salad is very good and has unique flavor, not your standard fare. If you enjoy lighter battered fish, I would definitely recommend getting the fish in cornmeal batter; also the snapper fish sandwich with remoulde sauce is awesome!Hopefully we just had an off day the last time we went; don't get me wrong still good, just a little disappointing in portion size and slightly undercooked.Parking: Can be hard to exit parking lot in busy summer months
