    Burger after I took a bite and thought it was the most deserving of a photo
    embie S.

    I went to the clear water café and I was the simply the most spectacular food I have ever eaten in my entire life. I got seated right away which was nice, inside they have large widows which is nice but the sun was in my eyes. But than they said they had blides and that we could close them is we wanted to!!!!! The vibe is so cute, when u walk in you see a lovely stare case and a cute wood carved sea lion. Away, the servicer comes to our table quick and he was really nice. Then I ordered the clear water burger, ok? Remember that. I ordered it and then the food came quick, not too quick like fast food type vibe, but quick non the less. And the burger had WAGYU BEEF and it was only 18 FOR THE WHOLE MEAL!!! Insanely cheap for wagyu beef!!! I get the burger, it smells absolutely divine. I bite into it, I start to tear up. Im not even kidding, this is not an inside job im just so passionate about this burger its kinda ludicrous. If man could marry food, this would be it for me. 12 outta 10, 6 stars. Also get the garlic fries, SO good! This burger was so good it was in my literal dreams that night. Crazy

    The place is really nice. Very spacious with very nice views. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable. Our food was very delicious. We ordered the coconut shrimp, shrimp Alfredo and crispy chicken burger. This place is kid friendly. They don't have a parking lot. So you will have to find parking where you can. But still it was a great experience. It is also on the pricier side.

    There was a 30-45 min wait but we got in sooner. There's a shop next door that was fun to walk through while we waited. Food was outstanding. So delicious and just perfect. Well thought menu. We had a variety. The carrot cake waffle dessert was delicious. Service was fine, but food didn't come out together as we'd hoped. It was a little loud in the restaurant but really not bad. Of course the views are nice at the window. The seals were fun to watch after dinner.

    Snag as table by the window if you can -- watching the sea lions jostling each other on the docks below is big time entertainment in and of itself. Otherwise I dig the very cozy vibe here, which feels elevated but not too fancy, with a snug bar tucked into the upstairs area. The views over Yaquina Bay are great. The menu looked interesting enough, definitely a couple of levels up from the pub fare served at most places down the street. I recommend the Rockfish tacos, lightly breaded fish wrapped in flexible but sturdy tortillas with a nice hot sauce on the side. Surprisingly tender and tasty. My veggie burger though? Hard pass. It was fairly flavorless and disappointingly mushy --- and completely overpowered by a disproportionately sized bun.no texture whatsoever. I should probably deduct another star but... eh. On a positive note, the beer and wine list looks solid, and cocktails appear to be on point; really, this is a neat spot with very good service and friendly folks, just not a strong veg burger game.

    My sister and I spent the afternoon wandering Newport a few months back and decided to pop in for dinner--zero expectations, zero research, fully vibing. We went in blind and honestly? Best decision of the day. The place was cozier than expected, but the décor was cute, the energy was lively, seated quickly, and for a Tuesday around 6:30pm, it was pleasantly busy (which already felt like a good sign). Our waitress? Bubbly, friendly, and knew the menu. We love a professional with personality. I sipped on the Basil Jalapeño Margarita--fresh, balanced, and just spicy enough to keep things interesting. My sister went with the Rico Guave (if memory serves), which she clearly enjoyed because the glass didn't survive long. Now... the star of the evening: the Local Dungeness Crab Mac & Cheese. Spectacular. Dare I say the best mac & cheese I've had in my lifetime, so far. Real, generous chunks of crab--no scavenger hunt required--rich, creamy, and perfectly executed. My sister ordered the Tuna Melt with melt-in-your-mouth garlic truffle fries -- even after stealing bites of my mac (as sisters do), she confirmed the Mac was fresh, creamy, and downright delicious. And here's how you know it was good: my sister never finishes a meal. Ever. She lives for a to-go box. We left with full bellies... and NO leftovers. 10/10 would wander in blindly again.

    My friend recommended this place and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious. The oysters were incredibly fresh, and the Halibut Fish and Chips had a perfectly thin, crispy batter. Plus, you get an exclusive view with the sea lions right there. Our server is so nice. Highly recommended

    Wayne D.

    Came here for the cute sea lions view on a lunch They have parking spaces across the street Burger: patty is a bit over cooked but the fry is good texture Crab melt: the sandwich is a bit too hard and dry. Not much flavor. Wouldn't recommend Mocktail is cute Ice cream on brownie: the best dish of the day. Brownie is a bit crispy and also warm. One of the best brownies I've ever had Staff are super nice. Dog friendly patio with a great view of the sea lions. They're very loud if you don't want that

    This place continues to be our absolute favorite restaurant in Newport! We come here whenever we're in the area. Love how they have a parking lot with designated spots for Clearwater customers. We are always able to find a spot there, which is so convenient because it gets extremely busy and crowded on weekends and anytime during summer months. The street parking fills up fast! We recently made reservations for a late birthday lunch while staying on the Newport Belle across the bay. As always, they had our table ready and a Happy Birthday placard on the table. They also put the large firework on our dessert to celebrate the occasion. Love that they don't sing and make it super embarrassing. This is the second reservation where they reserved the best table in the house, up in the bar area right in the window. The view from there is outstanding! Our food was delicious and service exceptional. We always recommend this place to family and friends. Come check them out...you won't be disappointed!

    Beautiful restaurant, super gorgeous Sunday, exceptional staff and service, Mary our server was 5 star, spectacular views, it was just a wonderful experience. Beer was cold and refreshing, Ahi Tuna flat bread was delicious (ask for the ginger sauce), Garlic Noodles with crab, Eggs Benedict with prosciutto and the best Marionberry cobbler ever! Was not a total fan of the Eggs Benedict, did not like it on the home made biscuit. The eggs were cooked perfectly, runny yolk. Garlic Noodles okay but would have preferred it with another protein besides the crab. Would definitely return again.

    Nice restaurant. Loved that we can see the seals. Got in quick with no reservation. Our server Nicholas was a wonderful server! Very attentive and relatable. He was definitely a favorite part of our trip. The hamachi appetizer was good, perfectly portioned and amazing sauce. Steak was a little under seasoned, the steak sauce Nicholas recommended definitely helped, and the fish tacos seemed to be too saucy/falling apart and too much guac with not enough fish. Still would go back, and recommend trying out!

    Fish Tacos
    Joy D.

    The nicest part of this restaurant is the ocean view. The food was ok? Nothing to rave about. I got the fish of the day. It was the smallest piece of fish. It wasn't well seasoned. We ordered the watermelon salad. It was more like a strawberry salad. Not a lot of watermelon. My daughter liked her crab Mac and Cheese. My husband said his fish tacos were ok. My son enjoyed his crab legs. The service was not very personal. Overall, not the best restaurant experience while visiting Newport.

    Amazing presentation and cooked to perfection
    Bev S.

    We enjoyed our birthday early dinner today! Omar was our waiter and so knowledgeable, accommodating, and providing excellence service ! Highly recommend The view is great right on the water and the sea lions are a hoot to hear!!

    There are almost too many good things to say about Clearwater in Newport, Oregon--where do I even start? First off: the view. It's unreal. Whether you're there for lunch or dinner, you're treated to a stunning waterfront scene that's worth the visit alone. But the view is just the beginning. The service was top-notch--we were lucky to have Kelli P as our server, and she truly made the experience memorable. He was knowledgeable, warm, funny, and gave us excellent recommendations that made a great meal even better. We started with the crab cakes, which my wife insists are the best she's ever had. The watermelon salad was another standout--refreshing and creative, with almonds, whipped goat cheese, fried feta, and fresh strawberries, all brought together with a delicious roasted strawberry dressing. For mains, we had two chicken sandwiches with fries, both perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Even the lemonade impressed us--fresh, handmade, and a refreshing touch to the meal. Don't skip their drink specials if you're in the mood. And dessert? The salted caramel bourbon bread pudding came highly recommended, and it absolutely delivered--rich, warm, and indulgent in all the right ways. After your meal, don't forget to stroll the dock outside and check out the sea lions. It's the perfect ending to a perfect meal. High recommendation from us--we'll definitely be back!

We wanted the smashed potatoes but we're told they could not be made vegetarian because of the bacon. Leaving bacon off of vegetables seems like a must. I guess they cook their potatoes in the bacon? I'm not sure, but it was a true let down. We opted for fried avocados with a creamy dipping sauce. They were flavor packed and had a crisp outside texture. The brussel sprouts were able to be made vegetarian by taking the bacon off. That was a relief and we enjoyed both of our sides. Staff was friendly and the big windows made this stop a fun time.

I've eaten in quite a few places on the west coast that claim to serve Irish food and I have always been unsatisfied with the authenticity. So I was very surprised and impressed with the food served at Nana's. My experience started with the ambiance. It truly had the feel of a real Irish Pub. This was followed by the hospitality. Our server was amazing. She had great menu suggestions for the people who were eating with us. They have eaten a wide variety of Irish food. She made an excellent selection as to the Irish beer that would best suit my palate. They have several Irish beers on tap. I chose the Smithwicks Red Ale. It was delicious and very enjoyable. Now for the food. Many years ago I enjoyed Steak & Stout Pie in a Dublin Ireland pub. It was really good. I've had it in several locations here back home but it just wasn't the same. So when I spotted the Steak & Guinness pie it peaked my interest and I ordered it. Well I definitely was not disappointed. More so it was like reliving an old pleasant memory. The Steak & Guinness pie was spot on. Every bit as enjoyable as the one I tried in Dublin. I very highly recommend trying this establishment if you're traveling to or through Newport. You will not regret enjoying the food and the experience.
