The Riverhouse Restaurant Pacific City

Where to Eat and Drink on the Oregon Coast

"Pacific City’s understated, simultaneously casual and upscale restaurant on the Nestucca River makes for a great evening out after a day on the dunes or out fishing on the area’s historic dory boats. Focusing on Oregon seafood fisheries — think dory boat-caught rockfish enrobed in a blonde ale batter, line-caught Coho salmon served with smoked potato gnocchi, and all types of oysters and clams harvested by small family businesses from nearby bays — Riverhouse provides a menu that’s as eco-friendly as it is delicious. Drinkers will be pleased by the wine list with strong selections from the Willamette Valley and Europe." - Jennifer Burns Bright
