    I should have known better than to come to this new local North Plains food pod location…read more(post-fireworks) on a Friday, July 5th afternoon lol. Because out of the four usual pods that are here, only SlackTide was open!!! Yippee!!! I finally get to try them too!!! Yippee Skippy!!! Here's my order: ~ Again, this was my first time trying this pod, so I went BIG. I ordered their best item, the $28 Captian's Platter. This consisted of two pieces of fish, in which lingcod was the "featured fish." Three pieces of fresh scallops. And three pieces of fresh shrimp. First of all, I was warned by the owner Brian that lingcod is a thinner fish. But being an avid angler, I was familiar with how big or long lingcod can get. I will admit the fish pieces were somewhat small, but I was warned. I had to get that deep-fried, forearm sized "British fish-n-chips in a newspaper" thought out of my head. The breading, however, was crispy good! The breading stayed on the fish as well. Another plus in my book! As for the scallops and shrimp, oh boy these were just as tasty, dipped in the cocktail sauce or tartar. Squeeze a lil' lemon, add a lil' salt, and mmm mmm!!! The good thing was, after eating that platter, I didn't have that greasy guilty feeling. Oh wait, there's more... ~ Who wants CHOWDAH?!?!?! MAAAAN, I've been up and down the Pacific coast and damn, SlackTide sells some good competition worthy chowder! Why? Because with each spoonful scoop, it had clam with every bite. The base was just right, not too thin, not too thick. It just tasted amazing to me, and thank goodness it wasn't overwhelmed by big potato filler pieces. I only sampled the 10oz cup for $8, but now I know next time to try it in a bread bowl. Welp, that's just about it regarding SlackTide. Call me a fan! Some may think its a bit pricey, but the seafood was cooked fresh on the spot, and EVERY bite was just pure blliss! I had a great talk with the owner Brian about how he manages to do this part-time on the weekends. Man, much props! Fish only stays fresh for so long, so understandable with the short hours. But I'm all about supporting locals. FIVE Star-fish for these guys!!!

    I didn't know there were food trucks out here. Luckily I spotted them in the way to a car show. I…read morehad the Fish & Chips (Lingcod was the catch of the day) and it was excellent. The fish was very fresh, nice seasoned cornmeal breading and perfectly cooked. The fries were equally good. Although next time I'd like to try the clam chowder as the side. The tartar sauce was as good as the rest of the meal.

I don't know how long this place has been here since it is a block off the main drag. I just happened to find it thanks to Yelp when i was out here looking for some place new for lunch. This is not your typical sports bar! And to be candid I am not wild about sports bars.. all those macho character living vicariously though the exploits of professional athletes. And not a single play can go by without raucous cheers and yelling. I HATE loud gin mills! This place is quieter and brighter than most sports bars. Yes, they have the obligatory wall-to-wall big screen TVs which I try hard to ignore. I'm here for the food guys.... they do have a fairly full menu but their burgers are killer. A thick burger, fries an a cold beer and I'm a happy guy. Wish they opened earlier and offered a full b'fast but it is what it is. Prices are decent considering what you get: generous portions and very tasty food. Staff is "ok" but not exceptional, at least on this visit. No complaints and I do appreciate not being bugged by staff so no stars off for that. When it comes to beer, I'm one and done so I am very low maintenance for staff.

    Outstanding! Three Smash Burgers and fries. Mely's exceeded all my expectations. The food is…read moredelicious, the service was outstanding, and the prices are exactly what I expect to pay for food of this caliber. In fact the prices are far less than the lower quality burgers I find in Portland. After a three hour trip home from the coast in a snow storm, Melys saved our day.
