Frutti di mare with fettuccini
Linda S.

Our group of four ladies went here for a birthday celebration. We enjoyed being the first to enjoy the new Spring menu. Two had fish and chips with salad, very good. One had eggplant Parmesan. She rated it okay, but loved the pasta. I had the frutti di mare, which was outstanding. The clams were large, delicious and there was good size shrimp, calamari and scallops with homemade pasta and a good serving of bread. We also shared an appetizer of hummus, olives, tapenade, grape leaves and pita. The prices were quite reasonable for the quality of food, service and atmosphere. Dessert was a deconstructed Baklava, an ice cream dessert topped with shredded phyllo, honey and nuts. One more shout out to our wonderful waiter, an affable fellow from Chicago who kept us laughing and was a superb server. We had a cozy table overlooking the river, which was just perfect.Highly recommend!

View from the deck:)

So this location has been several things. I didn't know it had changed again. This new restaurant was very nice. The vibe inside is peaceful and very beachy. We got a great seat on the deck. Service was a little slow, but we found out there was only one waiter on a Saturday. She was doing her best. We enjoyed a drink and a cup of chowder with a fantastic view. The chowder was pretty good. I would check this place out next time for a meal.

It was an Outstanding, Beautiful SUNNY day in Astoria. We decided for outside/waterfront dining.........we chose AKRES on the Pier. JUST A NOTE: The hours they are open are incorrect....i brought this to their attention but Trip Advisor has the correct hours!! This is a nicely decorated place, Susan was super friendly and was alone for the first hour. She was very knowledgeable and very good at handling the front of the house and waiting on tables. She did a great job as it got very busy. BEFORE I START: I must Apologize for the pictures of our food.... The soup smelled so good we both dug in before I snapped the picture, same with our meal... WISH YOU COULD SMELL THE FOOD!!!! Had a Pilsner, very cold and then an extremely flavorful soup, sausage kale and potato. Then we ordered and shared Pasta Bolognese and Pork Belly/wild mushroom flatbread.. Both were excellent! The location, the menu, the views, river activity was fantastic and fun to watch salmon jumping out of the water. A bit on the spendy side for lunch but well worth it. You will not be sorry!

Espresso martini

Food and service was amazing. You have to try the Espresso Martini and the deconstructed baklava with ice cream. Best dessert ever.

Brand new Mediterranean restaurant on Pier 12 on the Astoria waterfront. The interior is gorgeous and welcoming, with amazing views of the ships anchted in the Columbia. Parking right on the pier is extra convenient. We came on the first day they were open for breakfast. There still ironing out the kinks on getting rolling, but thus place is super promising. The server (an owner I suspect) was incredibly friendly and attentive. I had the Shakshuka and my wife had a Dungeness tartan. The shakshuka is refined and smooth, spicy with a strong pinch of cumin. It's served with fresh pita. The Dungeness tartan has a zesty lemon gremolata high note. Delicious. Hoping for great success here. As local Astorians we love the idea of another great dining spot.

Pork dish and greens
Sherie T.

First time here, came over from Long Beach. It was absolutely worth the drive! It is so difficult to find an amazing meal and service these days. We went on a Friday in January and it was beautiful. The interior is elegantly and comfortably decorated. We sat in the corner front window and the couch is very comfortable. And the view can not be beat of course! We were served by Jeep who was fantastic server! We shared an appetizer salad and the Greek dressing was obviously made in house. So refreshing. I had the chicken kabobs and it came with perfectly cooked vegetables and potatoes , homemade tzatziki with their grilled pita bread. Great portions and all so mouthwatering delicious. This fat girl was so happy! My hubby had the pork and again it was perfect. Nice outside crisp to it and the cooked greens they served it with were almost just as good as the pork. My hubby will always eat his vegetables first so he can save the meat for last to enjoy. This time he was saving the cooked greens it came with. It was an amazing sauce they cooked it in and I would easily get a side of that next time. Then we had dessert. We had to try the chocolate, orange zest and cinnamon cake and also their deconstructed baklava. I am now a huge fan of pistachio ice cream. My hubby had a very well balanced and delicious "Underworld Manhattan" from Sam the bartender who created it. I am getting that next time.

Scallop risotto
Emily B.

Let's just start by saying this restaurant is beautiful. You can't beat the views! Our server was very nice and attentive. We had a glass of Chianti that was tasty and only $10. We had the crudo which was different that any other crudo I've had but the fish was fresh and it was pretty good. We also had the scallops and risotto. The risotto was overcooked and it came with four very small scallops. I wanted to love it but unfortunately it just wasn't the greatest. The price didn't match the expectations.

The food is absolutely incredible and you can not beat that view! Perfect for a date night or a small gathering of friends

What a sweet quaint little restaurant. My daughter and I went there yesterday for Mother's Day. It…read morewas a beautiful day and while they have outdoor seating we elected to eat inside. Reviewing the menu, there were lots of yummy things to choose from but ultimately we both could not resist the Lamb shank. I'm sad I didn't take a picture of it. It was so tender and delicious. It came with perfect Basmati rice and a side of eggplant stew that was exquisite! I've never had eggplant stew and it was luscious. I dream to about it all night long. It was quiet, comfortable, music was great; songs we all know but with native instruments and flare. We had house red wine - not a big selection of alcohol, which is fine the food is and should be the star. Our sever (Sorry my old lady brain forgot his name) but the good looking bald guy(LOL) was nice and personable. It was such a great low key dining experience that just made the day even better. I highly recommend this cute place and we will be back- there are a lot more wonderful food to try!

Great vibes and flavors found here! The beet margarita had a vibrant color with an earthy tone that…read moremixed well with a salted rim. The shredded lamb is rich and flavorful and the chicken and beef were deliciously moist and so good with the tzatziki sauce! The staff were helpful with suggestions for dessert which was a sweetened crispy dish with what seemed like melted cheese underneath. I cannot recall the name of it but if you like something not too sweet this is it! Enjoy!
