Sat at the bar and enjoyed the steamer linguini and a ginger beer. The bartender lady was so kind and friendly, I didn't get her name but she really made me feel so taken care of even though I wasn't drinking. Steamer linguini was FULL of steamer clams and bacon, they definitely don't skimp! The toasted baguette slices were just right with it, too. Got a tiramisu to go which was really good, I think it's house-made. Great "last night of vacation" meal after a long day in the sunshine! read more

My four-top was underwhelmed. Ev started with a Caesar salad, calamari, & clam chowder. The main courses moved onto A crab melt, a burger, a club sandwich, & steamers. The service was without complaint. We have been patronizing this establishment for the last 25 years whenever we would be able to leave the city hide on the beach for a few days, with or without & well before kids. No real complaints here, but an honest 3/5. read more

I have lived on the peninsula for over a year, and the best meal I have had was at Castaways on Feb. 4th, 2026. My husband and I ordered beverages and an appetizer of Korean bbq pork skewers. Pork tenderloin was wrapped in bacon, put on skewers, and served with a delicious sweet and spicy bbq sauce. For dinner I ordered the seafood lasagna. It was served with toasted baguette slices and was surrounded by a cheesy sauce that was so delicious. The lasagna was made with a white sauce and was full of shrimp and crab. It amazed me how much seafood was in the dish. My husband ordered the salmon and a baked potato. The salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It came with a side of squash and mixed veggies. We were more than pleased with the quality of the food ordered. The service was top notch. Our server was attentive and kept up with drink refills and making sure we were cared for. We sat in a booth, and the atmosphere was quiet and made us feel comfortable. There were full tables around us, but it didn't feel like we were rushed at all. It was a great dining experience. Can't wait to go back! read more

We wanted a good restaurant for seafood and especially clam chowder. All the food here was excellent. We got the sourdough bread bowl, which tastes like it's fresh homemade sourdough bread. The clam chowder is really good. The fish and chips were everything we could possibly want. We've tried several restaurants around town and so far this is the best one. Service and ambiance were nice as well. I would highly recommend going here. read more

Castaways was the highlight of our Long Beach visit. The decor inside is awesome - lots of very cool photos of Long Beach from the past - and the vibes are great. It's very centrally located on the main strip. We ended up sitting at the bar to avoid a wait for a table (the entire bar section is open seating) and the bartender was super friendly. I ordered a steelhead burger with garlic fries off the specials menu and my husband got the Lighthouse cheeseburger. The food came out super fast and was SO delicious. I'll be thinking about those garlic fries for a very long time. The food was hot, super fresh, and so tasty. I cannot wait to go back and try some more things off the menu! read more

We decided to give Castaway's another try. We were seated right away and our drink orders were taken promptly. They have a great variety of menu items including gluten-free options. I ordered the corn masa battered prawns and chips. My husband had the halibut sandwich. Both were delicious with warm crisp fries. Hailey was our server and she was friendly and attentive. read more

Service could be better. Much better. After a long drive we were ready to enjoy a meal. After a wait for a table, the issues started from the waitress and the wait. She definitely wasn't the issues. Unfortunately, we were not pleased from start to finish at this establishment read more

We had a lovely first meal on the coast here. We were quite surprised because we just went here on a whim without much research. My husband a tasty bowl of chowder then fish tacos that were absolutely perfect. My seared tuna bowl was fresh and delicious. The ambience was a bit sporty but everyone was pleasant. Service was sufficient. read more

Good food and ambience, but way too expensive. There are other options at better prices.

Last visit was back in 2013, time for an update. Again, this was our first meal after arriving in Long Beach (6/16/25). Nice to see it thrive after our previous visit 12 years ago. We timed it well because both the bar and restaurant was full house during our onsite meal. We shared their clam chowder. Tasty. I opted for the Club Sandwich with garlic tots. Goodness such a generous entree. This took me three sittings to finish it. The Homie had the Captain's Plate which included cod, clam strips, oysters, and shrimp. All well battered, seafood remained tender, and perfectly executed. This came with sides like broccolini, sweet potatoes, and whipped garlic potatoes. I snagged some bites...wow, flavor packed! Our waitperson was very friendly, checked in on us, and kept us well hydrated. No room for dessert, but we patted our stomachs carrying our takeout boxes back to the car. Great bang for your culinary buck! read more

Took a road trip thru Long Beach. Out of all the restaurants to choose from, I'm glad we stop at the Castaways. Great service, thank you Karleigh B. Fish and chips are really good. Just the right amount of batter. Ahi cafe salad is delicious, a great combo veggies, fruits. They had a lady playing the violin and she was really good. Will be back. Really enjoyed our meals and music. read more

The Castaway is a cozy spot that feels warm and inviting when you walk in. Miss Carly was our server and she took great care of us. Tasted their chowder also and it is absolutely delicious! Definitely worth a visit when you are in town. read more

I had a great dinner this evening, the Ahi Tuna Csfe Salad. The tuna slices were coated in sesame seeds and expertly seared. Beautiful! Gorgeous avocado, diced mango, cucumbers, greens and a sesame dressing. Yum! I got through half of it and will enjoy the rest tomorrow. Lovely server, checked in on us a couple of times, which is appreciated. My sweetie got the salmon and enjoyed it. read more

We were seated right away. Behind our table was a party of 6. 3 women and 3 men. They were older and one of the women was using a walker. The lady with the walker went to sit, missed the edge of the booth and hit the floor. 2 of the men at their table tried to lift her but were unable. A man at the table next to ours got up and helped the women up. I asked the lady when they were leaving if she was ok she said yes but she just had knee surgery a few days before. I did notice that not one of the employees even asked if the lady was ok. Next the food and service for our table. Kayleigh and the young man who seated us was great. My husband ordered the Cioppino and really enjoyed it. We also ordered the crab cakes to share and I had the spinach salad. Personally I thought the crab cakes had too much red pepper. Couldn't even taste the crab but the spinach salad was excellent! read more

11 years after our first visit, I'm happy to report that Castaway's still has 5-star clam chowder -- among the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was inviting and cozy, and the service was competent throughout. We were there right at opening, and you could tell the chowder was freshly made, and it was chock full of goodness, in a base that wasn't too thick. It was perfect. Unfortunately, the scallop "shareable" dish that we ordered wasn't quite on the same level. The presentation was gorgeous, with the seared scallops lined up on a square plate, in a bed of their "zesty cream sauce" -- and freshly grilled French baguette slices on the corners. But the scallops themselves were overcooked and slightly rubbery, with a bit too much "seafood-y" flavor. Definitely not on par with the best scallops I've had. So moral of the story... definitely get the chowder when you go to Castaway's. read more

This was recommended by our stay. Really , very close. So we went all-in sea food. oysters ,shrimp and clam chowder. Delish Service was a delight , but comes with a wait. Bartender also has 6 tables in the bar. That's a lot. read more

What a great place to eat and relax. The food was amazing. It was my first time here so I played it safe by ordering Fried Prawns and Clam Chowder. It was the best I've ever had of both. And yes, both of those can be made poorly. I also had part of a Crab Cake which was not my thing, but my daughter's boyfriend thought it was great. We shared Tiramisu which was also delicious. I rarely have a drink when I go out, but their Cranberry Margarita can't be beat. I highly recommend Castaways as a place to try if you're in the Seaview, WA area. It will be worth your time. read more

A friend and I decided to dine here after several recommendations when I asked a group that I'm part of where to dine during our Long Beach stay. We shared the crab cakes that were big and tasty. They came with the most delicious seaweed salad! We also shared the scallops that were cooked perfectly and the sauce so good! Our server was attentive and very personable. I wish I had asked his name. I will definitely dine at Castaways on my next visit. read more

Food is great. Love the diverse menu. Ambience is great. Service is great. Consistent. read more

Castaway's Seafood Grille - Wilson! I had to post this review just so I could add this photo lol - Seafood Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

Stopped in on a Saturday during the lunch rush for a quick bite and were seated right away. Our server, Sydney, was fantastic! We were craving clam chowder and fried seafood, and this place delivered exactly what we were looking for. The modern beachy, coastal-town vibe was spot on, and the decor perfectly captured the charm of Long Beach. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town! read more

This place would perfect to come for a date night. Food was delicious (with the exception of the seared ahi, not much flavor and wasn't a good eating experience as there was the stringy part of the ahi made it hard to cut/eat). The appetizers were great. My pasta dish was good however it was a little heavier than I expected. The way it was described on the menu it sounded like a lighter dish. Service was good, we had a large table and she was very attentive to us. Nice place to grab a bite in Long Beach. read more

We ate here twice during our stay in Long Beach, and both times the food was excellent. The servers were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. When we were unsure about the clam chowder, they offered us a sample--which we ended up loving. I had the island tacos with blackened cod. The portion includes two flavorful tacos and a side; I opted to switch mine to a small Caesar salad, which was fresh and delicious. The fish tasted fresh, and the seasoning was spot on. I also had the PNW mocktail, which was flavorful and delicious--perfectly balanced and refreshing. As a group, we shared the fried calamari, which our 11- and 13-year-olds both enjoyed. We also ordered a side of bread that wasn't listed on the menu--sliced baguette with olive oil, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan. It was a simple but incredibly tasty addition. The ambiance was great--relaxed and inviting, with a coastal charm that made the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, the food came out quickly, everything we tried was delicious, and the service was outstanding. Highly recommend! read more

This is a lively busy place. Food was good, tasted fresh. The fries portions that accompanied the fish and the halibut sandwich were good, however the size of the sandwich and the 3 fish pieces were on the small size for the price. The fettuccine pesto with crab was very good, but the winner of the dinner was the award winning chowder. It was delicious. Again portions are on the small side. I'm aware that prices are a reflection of the inflation that is happening everywhere so I understand that they have to price their food accordingly. They have a menu outside the door so you can see their prices before going in. Service was great. Our waiter was very nice. read more

I love this place!!! If you like shrimp salad get it here!!! So here's the bad. Price may be an issue for some. I thought it was a decent value. Everything was really good and the service was great. Oyster shooters are a hard pass for me next time I go. Everything else.....9.6/10 read more

The worst experience I've had at a restaurant in years. This used to be a really nice quiet and inviting place to eat. Sat down and couldn't hear each other over the loud crowd of people in every corner of the restaurant. Ordered our food took a while to get it. The overhead fan was freezing us out and the front door was wide open. I asked if the fan could be turned off and our waitress snapped at me and said no!! In the meantime the food got so fast from the fan and the door being left open. My baked potato came empty. We had asked to have it loaded without chives. Waitress offered to take back to the kitchen and have it loaded. I agreed to it. Well still do noisy and cold food. Just ate what I could. Then we got the check and they had added $2.00 to each potato for loading them. I got a menu and there was no note stating extra for it. Asked our waitress to remove the charge and she said well that's what it is and said no. I tried to fight her about it and gave up. Paid the bill and left. Not Going back here again. So sad Happy Anniversary to us with a meal like eating at the school cafeteria!!! read more

First time visiting and we had an excellent meal with the family here. Everyone raved about their meals and the food came out quite fast, considering it was dinner time on a Wednesday night in October, they weren't very busy. The service was okay, not quite as attentive as we'd have liked, but adequate. The decor is nice inside as well, but not stuffy or super fancy, so I'd feel comfortable having either a casual meal or a nicer special occasion meal here. read more

The fried oysters were too good to not go back for lunch/snack. DELICIOUS. The chowder was also fabulous. Great find. read more

Entered to a full restaurant and bar area, recommended by our hotel...and looked like lots of locals, so that is always a great sign. Sat at a high top in the bar. Ordered the salmon. And a bottle of wine, which we did not finish, but the waitress corked it, and sealed it in a bag to take back to our room. Have never seen that, and we were impressed. Let's get back to the meal...it was so very good. The salmon was by far the highlight! Wanted to love the squash mash that is their specialty with each meal apparently, but it was way too sweet for our taste. We tried adding pepper to make it palatable to us, but nope. The baked potato was a bit under cooked, but tasty. And oh my gosh, the broccolini was amazing! Highly recommend the salmon; we chose grilled. When in town do not miss the Castaways Seafood Grille. Service was top notch too! read more

Absolutely love this place! Food and service is always consistent. Marissa is our favorite!

Got clam chowder here Tuesday evening. Supposedly it was rated #1. It was terrible! So watered down that I couldn't take more than a few bites. It was gross read more

Has a good experience here. Google said it opens at 11 but that is wrong they open at 11:30. Best to get there early because it gets busy and the wait can be an hour long. They don't take reservations. Food wise, we ordered the oysters, Cioppino, steamed clams, Brussels sprouts, lasagna and the burger. The steamed clams had a bit too much oil. The Cioppino was good and thick. I hoped that the oyster shell was cleaned more but it was delicious. The brussel sprouts was good. The calamari was great! Although not that special but just fresh! In general the seafood is all fresh so that is good. A bit expensive but seafood was good! read more

Gluten free clam chowder was awesome! So tasty. Clams were tender; it was creamy without being super thick. Had the grilled cod fish tacos for gluten freedom. Tasty! Only the bartender on duty, but she kept up with all of the tables. We were cozy sitting in the bar, but the main dining is also very nice. read more

Clam linguine & oyster were really good! Cranberry Margarita was good. I would definitely eat here again.

It was surprisingly busy on a Sunday night. Must be a local favorite. Also pleasantly surprised they had live music. Service was prompt and friendly. The poutine with pork belly was amazing! The huckleberry mule and cherry vanilla whiskey sour drinks were a delight. My husband ordered one of the specials, the prime rib tacos. He said they were the second best tacos he's ever had. Unfortunately, I did not order well. I got the fried oysters, which I've never tried before. I've had fresh raw oysters and liked those, but I wasn't thrilled about the deep fried ones. If I had ordered better I probably would be giving a 5 star. read more

The food was good. The menu had a great selection. We were seated immediately. Service was good. BUT.... On Sunday night there is live music. The musician was SO LOUD we couldn't even have conversation, having to raise our voices to be heard across the table. We were there celebrating anniversaries with our family. The live music ruined it. We left as soon as we could. read more

Ate around 3pm on Saturday, it wasn't busy but for some reason it took around 20 minutes just for our waitress to get or food and drinks order. We were considering walking out because she was talking to every table but ours. She was a little snarky but lucky was ending her shift because we didn't see her again. Probably had a long shift and just wanted to get off. Other than that the food came out so quickly and our new waitress was super sweet. They almost served us the wrong food but it was for a different table. I have to say their Bloody Marry's were the best we ever drank. The cider on draft was a Portland cider company I think it was blood orange guava. They say they have the best claim chowder but it was a little to watery for my liking. The fish and chips were very tasty as well. The ambience was nice till our first waitress came around we only interacted with her maybe three times and all three times their was something off putting and or snarky. After she left we had a splendid time. The food was more on the pricey side but I'd say it's almost worth it. Would've been a 5 star if we didn't have to wait for a salty interaction. read more

You know a place is delicious when you aren't hungry walking in and you end up ordering more food! We needed a quick break from the beach so we originally came in for an oyster shooter and a cocktail. We saw the clam chowder go by and we had to try it. Then my daughter decided she needed the clam strips. The clam chowder was fantastic! It had so many chopped clams that it actually tasted like clams and not potatoes or filler. It wasn't overly thick or watery. It was the perfect consistency. The clam strips were fresh. Once you bit into the light battering they melted. They weren't chewy. The Valentine oyster shooters are mine and my husband's second favorite we have ever had. The flavor combination was so delicious that my daughter decided to try one. After we all finished our first one we ordered a second round. The bloody ceaser was above average. The ambiance started off quite pleasant but quickly plummeted. My daughter just got out of camp and we wanted to hear all about it. The noise level was so high we were litterally having to shout back and forth with our server. It can get very noisy. I'm talking like being at the stadium during a UFC match. Pro tip: if you get in early enough try not to sit by the door!!! We were right next to the hostess station and the ammount of people that crowd in and leave the door open is unbelievable. It doesn't matter if it's freezing, windy, or raining..... people will leave that door open. It does tend to ruin your meal when you are shivering or you have to give up your coat so your child isn't uncomfortable and they can eat their food. People tend to lack common decency these days so maybe a giant note about closing the door behind them would help. I felt terribly for the three little boys right next to the door that were shivering so hard one spilled his drink. Bring an extra jacket incase someone needs it and be prepared for the noise. read more
