Please see my last review in September, 2012. Everything I mentioned then is still true! LOVE their clam chowder!! That with a salad (my fav is the lettuce wedge with bacon, tomatoes, and bleu cheese dressing), and bread is for me the perfect meal while gazing out at the beach and watching the people go by. I also enjoyed the... More

The view is spectacular. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food is average and quite costly for the portion size. The adult beverages are a very weak pour. Will we go back? Of course! Like I said... the view is spectacular!

we had the clam appetizer, fish and chips and King Crab legs. The food was excellent and the view was beautiful. For dessert we had a build your own s'mores plate where we got to roast our own marshmallows over a small flame. I would definitely go back. Our server Kathryn was great.

Dear Allie L. Thanks for taking the time to share you experience. The s’mores are certainly unique and what a great way to enjoy an oceanfront restaurant then to roast your own s’mores while inside being all comfortable. Come see us again. Sincerely, Shaun W General Manager More

We stopped in during Spring Break after enjoying the attractions in Seaside. We were only planning on having something to drink and an appetizer so we could enjoy the beautiful view. When we walked in, we were not greeted just abruptly asked "How many?". We were given menus but then waited over 15 minutes for a server. When our server... More

Dear jobiemom, I do apologize if this is the experience you received here. I would really enjoy a conversation with as I am a little confused.

We stay at the WorldMark facility right across the street from the Shilo and enjoy the Restaurant and Lounge each time we stay at the WorldMark. Their afternoon specials are very good with reasonable pricing. It is great for "people watching" and right on the promenade next to the beach. Nice folks on the staff, too. One thing that was...

Service was okay but the food was not. Hash browns were burned. Onion rings the day before had too much batter and not sure they were fresh. Years ago this was a good place to eat. Prices were okay and the view is good. Maybe lunch and dinner is better.

Dear DianaK_123, Sorry to hear that food was not up to your standards. We are committed to providing a great product. The onion rings are always made fresh here to order as we hardly ever use any premade foods in our kitchen. We will work on the items you brought to our attention.

Went here for happy hour a few times during our stay and dinner once. All were very good experiences. The chowder is delicious! On drizzly days like we had the large fireplace is very welcoming, and of course the beach views can't be beat. Only downside might be the jukebox, it can get loud and changes the ambiance. But it's... More

The best thing about brunch at this place is the view. You can make reservations and they usually can get you a good view . We've been here for brunch a few times and it's changed a little. It's still very good (especially their homeade French toast sticks) but we miss the waffle iron that they used to have.

We really enjoyed our dinner at the Shilo Inn Boardwalk resturaunt. Our waitress Catherine was awsome. She sang happy birthday to my husband and made sure to keep the wine coming. She made us feel like family! The food was terrific and served at the perfect time after our salad and soup. I will come back again! Thanks Catherine!!!
