    New owners since May 2025. Delicious, homemade food. No longer a Japanese restaurant and reservations not required!

    Pablo's is your home away from home on the Oregon Coast. He uses fresh and organic ingredients for…read morehis authentic Argentinian cuisine. And he buys his own fresh pig to craft his homemade sausages--delicious! He and his wife make you feel right at home, whether you choose to eat inside in the quaint dining area or on the tiled patio, where the neighborhood cat does his best to make you feel welcome. And don't forget the homemade, vegan fruit or veggie smoothies! I can't wait to go back.

    Having just moved from the bottom of the earth in South America back to the good old US of A after…read more3+ years abroad, I was not sure that I wanted to jump back into Argentinian cuisine. But while on a Great American Road Trip, the hubby was craving steak, so I obliged. Boy am I glad we did! Pablo's is amazing as was our server Betsy. In South America, normal dinnertime is 8 p.m. or later, so I'm still getting used to "early" restaurant closing times in the US. We rolled into the quaint beachside town of Bandon, OR around 7:30 p.m. After a quick walk down the pier and through town, the hubs called Pablo's to see if they were still serving dinner (normal closing time is 8:30). To our delight, they were, so we walked over and were lucky to get one of the few tables under a "covid bubble." These little transparent dining pods are perfect not just for health reasons but also because they keep diners warm on cool nights. When I first saw the menu, I was a little surprised at the prices, but quickly realized that with only a handful of tables and high-quality ingredients, the prices were actually reasonable. We ordered a bottle of Mendoza Malbec (why on earth would you order anything else at an Argentinian restaurant?!?) as well as the shareable $130 steak dinner that comes with empanadas, salad, sides, and steak. What a deal! Everything was so delicious. We each had the Árabes empanadas (we can confirm that Argentina's empanadas are much better than Chile's, and Pablo's did not disappoint). Normally, my hubby isn't much of a salad guy, but the salad that accompanied the empanadas was so delicious, he scarfed it down to everyone's surprise. Pablo chatted with us between courses and we learned that he used to play soccer (futbol) in Argentina, his family is still there, and he recently trained under a Michelin-starred chef in Italy. When ordering dinner, we made an unusual request that Pablo graciously accommodated: hubby wanted his side of the steak medium-rare while I wanted mine medium. It was great. The grilled veggies (peppers, onions, zucchini) and pesto pasta were terrific. I had not had pine nuts since before we moved south, so that was a real treat after so many years without it. I was so stuffed from all the great food that I couldn't finish the pasta or veggies, so I took those to go and ended up eating them for breakfast the next day (don't judge, it was delicious and filling). If you want a really special, personalized dining experience with an internationally trained chef, you absolutely must visit Pablo's. If you have no interest in enjoying authentic Argentinian cuisine, Argentinian wine, and chatting with the chef, go somewhere else.

    Casita de Oro was a wonderful find during a business trip to Brookings. We totally forgot that…read morewinter hours in Gold Beach means no one is open on a Tuesday night, but they were! This tiny little spot was HOPPING. They only have three 4-tops and 6 bar seats, so expect to wait for a seat. Or, better yet, use their drive through window for a grab and go meal. The inside is designed like your traditional Mexican restaurant with rustic paintings on the walls, lots of bright colors, parrots, etc. You know the place, its your favorite neighborhood Mexican eatery. The food was pretty darn good. I had the Camarones Rojo and my wife tried the birria torta. Both dishes were fantastic, the shrimp was spicy and super flavorful and their beans & rice are AMAZING. Best I've had outside of Mexico really. My wife loved her torta. The carne was juicy, the bread crispy on the outside and chewy inside, fantastic. You have to order the consume separately but its a must. It ranks in my wife's top 3 favorites. There were only a couple not quite perfect things. Nothing to major, but worth mentioning. The birria torta came with raw jalapeños. While fresh and usually enjoyable, this just provided an additional raw heat that didn't go we'll with the rest so she removed them. If you dine in they provide chips & salsa. Unfortunately the salsa was quite bland. The chips needed salt too. They worked as an appetizer but could have been better. They have a few more dishes we're excited to try and look forward to eating here again!

    Not a whole lot of takeout options in Gold Beach, but this one had some of the best Yelp reviews…read more Ordered some chicken flautas which were ready for pickup in less than 10 minutes. Sadly they don't have black beans so I opted for double rice in place of the refried. The flautas had a decent amount of chicken, plus fresh guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. Fairly large portion for a reasonable price, definitely filled me up. Didn't eat all the rice, but the flautas were nice and crispy and very enjoyable going down. Chips & salsa available too. Would recommend if in town and in the mood for some quality Mexican!
