The first night we went out for dinner and ate at a Restaurant that was just down the street called The Blackfish Cafe.
After dinner we actually considered just eating here the rest of the trip since the food was so good. I felt silly taking a picture of our meals but they were too pretty not to! ;)
~ Hubby's Dinner ~
Grilled Ling Cod with Coast Range Mushroom Relish
Served with roasted Butternut Squash Bisque, Carlton Bacon braised Brussel Sprouts and Russian Fingerling Potatoes with grilled Mushroom Relish
~ My Dinner ~
The "Special" (aka: the BEST Halibut EVER)
Served with roasted Pepper Bisque, Carlton Bacon braised Greens and Pesto Risotto
Both were served with bread and salad and we shared a bowl of Clam Chowder... They aren't kidding when they say it is "The best Clam Chowder on the Oregon Coast!"
On Saturday we ended up going out for a late lunch/early dinner at Tidal Raves, in Depoe Bay, after a little window shopping and whale watching.
Thankfully we had made reservations earlier that morning because that place was packed, even at 2pm. All the tables in the restaurant have a view of the ocean, but we were lucky to have an awesome table right next to the window. Check out the view!
Once again the food was really yummy, though the clam chowder wasn't quite as good as at The Blackfish Cafe.
