Oregon Coast Restaurants - The Best In Food And Dining

These are some of the best Oregon Coast restaurants, according to my visitors and myself. There are very few things more romantic than a scrumptious meal with a breath-taking view. I truly enjoy a good plate of fresh seafood in the presence of my wife with the beach as the backdrop. Have a restaurant on the Oregon coast you want to rave about? Share your dining experience here!

Whether it's fine dining or just a great menu to choose from, here are some of my picks:

Oregon Coast Restaurants:
Dundee's Bar & Grill - Seaside

Fresh subs, pizzas, huge burgers, soups and salads, and of course, fresh seafood are all on the menu at Dundee's Bar and Grill in Seaside. I really enjoy the nachos here!

It's also good for breakfast, with their own donut shop right next door called Dundee’s Donuts.

Oregon Coast Restaurants:
Lil' Sambo's - Lincoln City

I've listed Lil Sambos here, not because of the food quality (I'd much rather eat at the Pig'N Pancake down the street), but simply because it's been a Lincoln City icon for many a year with a rich story and history behind it. It does have a large menu and the food is pretty good. Regardless, this has been one of my favorite places to stop at ever since I was a tiny Oregon Coast Guy. ;)
