Finally, with friends visiting from Washington, we made a special trip up to Reedsport, just to try it out. Best dining experience for a long time, for each of us! We called in for reservations, and the host nabbed us a table by the window, with an incredible view out across the bay. Upon arrival, Ron greeted us like we were family, and promptly offered us a tour of this very unique facility. The remains of a retired Coast Guard cutter, the entry way brings you into what looks to be a steel galleyway. Portholes peek through to the bar area and dining rooms. Up top, guests can reserve a private dining room, built from the original Bridge Cabin of the ship! Ron's original artwork adorned the walls of the place, and were quite unique - definitely adds to the decor. We sat down with the menu, and were pleased with the excellent variety of items available. We started off with the Clams Portuguese appetizer, and all LOVED it! In my opinion, it could have included a few more wheels of the Linguica, but the flavor was perfect. The drinks menu was very inviting, but considering that we were all extending our Dry January tradition, opted to try them on another visit. For our main course, my partner ordered the Beef Stroganoff. Being an aficionado of this dish, and having her own special recipe herself, she really loved how the flavors blended. Our guests ordered the Spaghetti di Frutti di Mare, and the Shrimp Louis salad. Both were delicious! I requested the Huckleberry-glazed Salmon, and was delighted with the consistency. The turmeric rice side dish was fantastic as well. Our favorite item was the Flowerpot Bread - a dense, two-toned baked roll, with a crusty shell. Very nice for wiping out all the delicious sauce residue from our meals. The parking was just a minor challenge; it is shared with the restaurant next door, so we ended up parking in what seemed to be boat trailer spots. Fortunately, there were no boats coming or going that evening, but it could be dicey during salmon season. We will definitely be back soon, however, to try out some of the other excellent-looking menu items!

Lunch is a good time to go cuz they have both lunch specials (for simpler meals if not craving a boil in a bag) & happy hour specials. Likely not as busy as weekend nights too. Can attest that ordering at the "dynamite" level of spiciness could be too hot for many diners. Food was delicious and the robot server is adorably polite. Only minor complaint were the portions of the corn, potatoes & sausage (basically a few slices of hot dog). Given the prices at this seafood restaurant, and the low cost of corn, potatoes & hot dog, why not increase the size of these items?! Star lost for portion size. Place isn't fancy but staff are friendly & prompt.

Nate 2026 Newport, Oregon…read more Came here based on recommendations from somebody in Bend, Oregon, and a local. I will start by saying I was not impressed. We had a reservation and they took us in a few minutes early and sat us upstairs. We sat near the window that overlooks the harbor and could see it from our table. Very pretty. There is a bar area and other tables that are away from the window that don't have the same view. When we were approached by the waitress, she informed us that they were out of Dungeness crab. Our reservation was at 6:15 PM. Seems a bit odd that a town known for Dungeness crab and the restaurant doesn't have it during peak dinner hours. My husband ordered a cup of clam chowder, and I ordered a cup of the Dungeness crab soup. I loved the creaminess of my soup. However, it was not served hot. Also, there were so many shells in my soup that every bite I had to remove one from my mouth. I do believe that the roux sauce had too much flour and was not mixed well. The clam chowder was not creamy, but had a good flavor. Chunks of carrot and celery. Both soups were served with a portion of bread. The bread was good. We shared the salmon dish. We asked our waitress if we could have the peas on the side as my husband has an allergy to peas. She was quick to tell me that there would be no substitutions. I informed her I was merely asking for the peas to put on a separate dish when brought to the table. She said that she would need to clear it with the kitchen first. Apparently, they approved, as the peas were served on the side. We did enjoy the salmon. It is cooked, medium rare. However, the middle of the salmon fillet was more rare. The buttery sauce was delicious and the asparagus was cooked very well. The mushrooms were delicious. The restaurant is very casual. The outside is not much to look at. The service was fine, but not exceptional. The food was good, but my expectations were so much higher for all of the accolades I had heard prior to dining. They add an automatic tip of 20% to every tab. Then on the bill, they politely ask for an additional gratuity. See the picture of the reason for their 20% gratuity on each bill in the photos that I have attached. I would give this restaurant four stars. It is a B rating for what should be an A restaurant.

This was hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had--period…read more We went to Dueling Spoons for my birthday, and from start to finish everything was spot on. The food was incredible--like the kind where you take a bite and just stop for a second because it's that good. You can tell there's real skill and intention behind every dish. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and comfortable without feeling overdone or pretentious. It felt like the kind of place you actually want to sit, relax, and actually enjoy your time. Chef Billy was a highlight--super personable, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about what he does. That personal touch made the whole experience even better. And honestly, this place set the bar so high that when we went to another restaurant the following week and paid more for our meal, it didn't even come close. We literally left wishing we had just gone back here instead. That says everything. If you're considering trying Dueling Spoons--do it. This place is something special, and I'll absolutely be back.

He's such a genuinely nice and friendly person, and I love that he always comes out to check on everyone and make sure they're enjoying their experience. That personal touch goes a long way. Highly recommend checking this place out!

But I saw other people's plates looking the same so I started to eat mine and absolutely loved it! I'm excited to come back, enjoy a great meal and pick up some smoked fish and some of the take and bake items.

The fish was fresh, cooked right, and full of flavor and none of that overworked nonsense, just straight-up tasty. If you're looking for glitz, keep wandering. But if you want a solid meal that feels like it came straight off the boat, this is your spot. I'd happily cast my line here again.

So we go The Barn a few times, because the Kracked Crab is a place where my partner can be…read moreguaranteed a gluten free dinner without any risk to her safety. I, myself, am not a seafood eater and so this is a third-hand account of the food here. My partner goes all out and gets a massive plate of food. I believe her go to dish is the "When Larry Met Shrimpy," which comes with lobster and shrimp, in a sea of potatoes, corn, and sausage. She always gets so happy when she starts eating, and I love watching her enjoy herself. Every single time she eats here, she is always happy and always satisfied. When I look at what she gets, it's just a massive amount of food. She's a small person, but she really rips through the entire thing. Often times she moans about how she can't finish what's left, but almost invariably she does. I know she enjoys the whole thing...sausage and potatoes aren't just filler for her, they're an integral part of the boil. Recently, our son (10 y/o) has decided he wants to explore the seafood world. He's been somewhat denied, as I dislike seafood myself. Now my partner is gladly willing to have him try new things, as she'll finish it herself if it's gluten free. The first time we came here, he got a simple lobster tail by itself. He enjoyed it, but said that he didn't like the garlic-parmesan sauce that came with it. He still ate most of the whole thing. The last time he went with my partner, he got a "Larry," a boil with a single lobster tail. This time he went with the honey garlic sauce, which he said he enjoyed a lot more. He didn't eat all of the lobster, but my partner thinks that's because he's still figuring out what parts he likes to eat, and how to eat it. (This is one reason I dislike seafood; there seems to be particular ways you have to eat stuff and part of it you don't eat, but suck on? I don't know. I'll stick with burgers). He did hoover up all the potatoes though. He wasn't a fan of the sausage, but we seem to think it's just because he's somewhat unfamiliar with a bratwurst style of sausage. I think. My observations as a third party observer: The prices seem high to me. However, my partner tells me the quality is excellent and, by god, you do get a lot of food. Also, this cart takes longer to prepare the food than some of the other carts. I almost always get my food before she does, and by mutual agreement, we all eat as soon as our stuff is ready. This leaves her watching me eat to start, and then me watching her eat to finish. It's okay, just something to be aware of. I'd much prefer that the food be cooked to order, versus just hanging around in a pot all day to be ladled up when asked for and served rewarmed and overdone. All in all, I love that this cart is here, and my partner truly enjoys the food. It's also opening up a new world of food for my children and I can definitely appreciate that.

People who came without a reservation were told that there's about an hour wait or they could sit at the bar level on the first floor. There's also a second bar on the second floor where the main dining room is up a flight of stairs. Service was great and we were lucky enough to sit by the window overlooking the sea lions, the water, and the Yaquina Bay Bridge. Food wise, it was mostly 5 star. I'll start with the thing that wasn't, and that was the deviled eggs (you get 3) with a lightly fried shrimp. The shrimp was overcooked, lukewarm, and didn't really add anything. But other than that, everything else was really good. The highlight was the Umpqua oysters on the half shell. We went through a dozen and a half. The oysters are sweeter, no briny. They're not huge but not tiny either like Kusshi oysters. It came with 3 different sauces. Another highlight was the whole dungenous crab...so fresh. Poke salad, garlic brussel sprouts, Yellowtail Hamachi, and Lingcod were also pretty good. If I'm ever in the area, I would definitely return.

Huli Huli chicken - the teriyaki chicken came recommended but was pretty meh since the flavor was not the best. Not sure if it was the quality of the meat or age but maybe it was an off day for them.
