The Riverhouse Nestucca

"This quaint, narrow and rustic restaurant building overlooks the Nusteca River. The dinning area is on the upper floor. There’s a lift but it was out of order at the time we went. This is now one of our favorite restaurant at the coast. I would recommend the calamari and the paella. Delicious food, great atmosphere, and friendly staff."

"I recently went to Pikes Place market, and the seafood here was as good, if not better than some the restaurants I tried at Pikes Place. Atmosphere was very cozy, and all the staff was very kind and friendly and warm and provided great recommendations, even though we walked in only 45 minutes before closing. Definitely would come again."

"One of the best gems in the Pacific Northwest. Recently we have gone back to dining out after a long break due to COVID. This meal was ten times better than the other fine dining we have had in Portland and a third the cost. I don't have pictures of our starters because we were so hungry after a long day and they we absolutely fantastic. We had the Safron Walla Walla Soup and the Fresh Burrata and Grilled Bread. The soup was so good that my wife ordered another cup. We ordered the Rockfish Fish and Chips, the Crab Mac and Cheese with Shrimp, and the Ravioli. The Rockfish crust was crisp and good. The handcut fries were amazing. My daughter said the the mac and cheese was one of her favorite meals of all time. The crab was sweet and the shrimp were huge. The pasta was tender with some chew. Same with the Ravioli. We were all so impressed with all the food that I had to try the clam chowder which was just as good as everything else. After dinner we were so full from trying everything else that we didn’t eat desert. The only thing I could say was that it would have been nice to see something with chocolate on the desert menu. We were so thoroughly impressed that if we are ever in Pacific City, Lincoln City or Tillamook area we are going here again!"

"Five dishes and all three desserts were absolutely stunning and perfect. Service was wonderful, gorgeous quiet spot on the river. Do not miss this place if you’re in the area."

"What a pleasant surprise! We rolled in to town after an 8 1/2 hour drive It is small and reservations are recommended. They are closed Monday-Wednesday, so we were stoked we found them on our arrival, which was Sunday or we would have missed them. The service is fantastic and friendly. The food is fresh and flavorful. It took us a while to decide but we finally decided on house salad, clam chowder, calamari, oyster shooters, and the crab/shrimp Mac and cheese. But everything that passed us looked amazing."
