This family style restaurant is located near the waterfront, on Astoria's main street. It's very large with counter service and tables and booths inside as well as an outdoor patio that overlooks the River. We had a booth in the back of the restaurant so we could watch the Riverfront Trolley as it made its way along the waterfront.
The menu is varied with burgers, prime rib, salads, seafood, etc. A sample of the features included poppyseed chicken breast sauteed in white wine and topped with pears; grilled razor clams or vegetarian yaki soba, a noodle and vegetable stir fry.
The meals we did choose ranged from good to only adequate. My niece had a cheeseburger which was good but it's pretty hard to mess up that kind of meal. The prime rib was served on a sizzling platter, accompanied by steamed vegetables and a baked potato for $14.00. The meat was a bit tough but otherwise, ok. Halibut fish and chips came in two sizes - small which had 3 pieces of fish and large with 5. My sister ordered the small portion but was disappointed to find that the pieces of fish were very small, probably the equivalent of one large pie in a standard fish and chip order elsewhere. There were lots of fries but that's not why she ordered the meal. The vegetable side dish with cheese sauce was good but a bit watery.
The decor was somewhat old fashioned - dark booths and moose heads on the wall but service was pleasant and the entire restaurant is non-smoking which we appreciated.
It's open daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm.
