This was our first time here, and we came for lunch on a Saturday. We ordered the House Smoked…read morePrime Rib Dip, and it was delicious! The meat was tender, the bread was fresh and soft, and the dip was so flavorful. The Caesar salad was perfect as well. There were several other dishes on the menu that caught our eye, so we're already looking forward to coming back and trying more next time. We also liked that they had TVs showing different football games.

Unfortunately - and it pains me to write this, but - the Lost Roo has lost its luster…read more Maybe they were having a bad night tonight. We arrived before 5:00 pm, and it took a while to even put an order in. Even though we were sitting in the bar and there were a LOT of servers/bussers/etc. We ordered the Mushroom burger, the Chicken Bacon Guac burger and the Prime Rib Dip. Let's start with the pros - the Chicken Bacon Guac burger was pretty good! But the Prime Rib Dip had something like shredded meat on it, not sliced meat. So, when you dipped it in the Au jus, chunks of meet fell into the Au jus. Be ready to fish them out with a fork! The Mushroom burger was an exceptionally thin burger. Our server asked how we wanted it cooked. But it didn't matter. A burger that thin was coming out well done, no matter what. It had mushrooms on it, but not many at all. And we ordered the Cajun Tater Tots. Tonight, it was just like someone cooked tater tots, then shook some seasoning on them, and maybe the lid fell off the seasoning? They were drenched in some kind of Cajun-adjacent spice. We had recently been telling visiting guests that the Lost Roo was the one consistent, reasonably priced restaurant on the peninsula. We're going to have to stop telling people that now. Sadly, it'll be a while before we go back.

Inferno Lounge is such a fun and memorable place! The modern inferno theme, darker décor, and…read morelively vibe create an atmosphere that feels both stylish and unique. Add in the incredible views of the Columbia River, and it's easily one of the coolest places in Astoria to relax and enjoy a drink. The cocktails are creative, beautifully crafted, and absolutely delicious. Their clam chowder is fantastic too. Thick, hearty, and loaded with meat, with a great consistency and a rich, classic chowder flavor. There was also a subtle hint of fennel that gave it something a little different without overpowering the traditional taste. After doing a chowder crawl and trying 10 different restaurants around Astoria, I would confidently put Inferno Lounge in second place, just behind Portway Tavern. Between the amazing river views, fun atmosphere, inventive drinks, and outstanding chowder, Inferno Lounge is definitely a place worth visiting!

My absolute favorite place to take out of towners when they visit Astoria!!!…read more To describe the place; the easiest way I can, is to say "imagine if the movie set of the 1980's version of "Tron" was an actual place to hang out." Not quite historically accurate, but hopefully you get my point. Extremely ambient and super-dope lighting. Vintage arcade games. Draft beer and ciders. You have to walk down to the side steps of an old warehouse building to even access this place (immediately makes you feel cool). A really great dip-in back by the legendary Polybius arcade game, blanketed in teal overhead lights and shadows from the surrounding machines, that make for a quick and excellent makeout spot. Someone told me that, anyways. Not me. I would never. Ask for the code to access the bathrooms and you will be delighted, if you're a true nerd.

So my first impression was this place is really cool inside. You could have some stairs and it's…read moreunderneath a building. They have drinks and beer, which we ordered a couple of. They have a ton of video games, especially pinball machines, which I love. I was excited to play them, but when I asked the bartender about it, she just explained how to scan a QR code and build an account in order to play them. it's really easy she said. Well, I scanned the code. built an account, created a password..etc. It was time-consuming. After I was done with all of that, I couldn't get the app to work on any of the games and I'm pretty good with technology. I couldn't find the bartender anywhere to ask her for assistance. So we had a beer, but I never got to play any games which I wanted to. Update. The owner response was very quick and I appreciate that in all businesses. They obviously take their business seriously so I added a star for that. I appreciate it. Thank you.

Hunter's is a great, local staple to Naselle. The burgers are great! The fish 'n chips are decent…read more I used to love their chicken, but the last time I had it, it was bland, so now I stick with a burger or their BLT! Best BLT on their pub bun...chock full of bacon!! Mmmm mmmm! Their club house sandwich is yummy, too. The portions are big! Fries, tater tots and onion rings are perfectly crispy. They also have the best fried cheese curds!! They do fried food well. Honestly, you can't go wrong with what you order. Service is fast and friendly. The restaurant itself is dark and dated, but it's clean and that's all that matters to me. The bar looks like it's well stocked and you can always find locals hanging about. Hunter's is a great choice for some substantial and yummy food.

First off it was nice and big, and extremely clean (even the women's restroom!). We were greeted right away and we sat at the bar. Our service was efficient, she swung by to make sure the food was good and then again when she noticed a beer glass was empty but she did not hover, which is what we prefer. We both got cheeseburgers and jojo's and left properly stuffed. Our burgers were perfect and those jojo's were huge and tasty! She noticed when we were ready for our check and we appreciated being able to get in and out so quickly as we still had a bit of a drive ahead of us and we were already tired.

Reservations are recommended, although we walked in and it was just a few minutes wait at 8pm. We didn't try their namesake Pickled Fish, but we did get local steamer clams, clam chowder and their schnitzel. The clam chowder had huge honking things of clam! They have a nice alcoholic and non-alcoholic drink list and the ambience at night is very chill. Ask for a window seat if you can, the views are amazing.

6 years later from my initial, 3 star review. :)…read more Located on the top floor of the Adrift Hotel, there is no bad seat. You have a great view of the ocean and beach while you eat. We happened to be staying at the hotel on the same floor, so it was kind of neat to be able to walk down a hallway after a meal and be back 'home', just like that. Food is good, if a bit pricey. The value is there and the service is good. We went for dinner one evening and breakfast at least once during a 3 night stay. It didn't take too long to come out either. Can get a little noisy when its a full house.

Tonight I had the fried oysters, a Caesars salad, and the ribeye steak. This was all perfect (I described the same appetizers very enthusiastically in my first review) and I'd like to highlight the fantastic ribeye steak, which I ordered medium rare. This was so delightful and expertly executed, it easily exceeded some steaks I've had in designated (and more expensive and pretentious) steakhouses. The service was excellent as usual; so were the Manhattan and pilsner on tap. When in doubt, pay the Bridgewater a visit and thank me later.

The host told us the wait would be 20-30 mins, so we put our names in and kept walking, exploring the street until it was time to return. They're pretty quick bussing tables to turn over guests in order to seat new ones. The waitress took our order fairly quickly and we sat back, listen to the live musician and waited for the food. The price was higher than we'd like, but honestly it was about the same as every other restaurant in the town. The food came in a timely manner and was good. Restrooms were also clean and tended too, even with this large of a crowd. This is going to be one of the local restaurants we want to return to in the future. I kind of understand why they're so busy now!

We were the first ones there so we chose an outside table. Nice space with the fire table. It's a little off the street so everyone isn't in your business The drinks from the bar were not very good.

Then the showstopper was the meat and cheese board. So beautiful and well explained and lots of handmade wares on. One of the best, if not the best, board I've had. Top notch. So why the bad reviews. We got to chat with the proprietor and we definitely caught them at a bad time. They are having some transitions in staff so if you're willing to be patient, it's worth a shot
