Reviews Summary

Ona Restaurant & Lounge offers a mixed dining experience. Many praise the fresh, flavorful seafood dishes and the pleasant ambiance, especially the patio with river views. However, some guests have noted inconsistencies in food quality and service, with a few finding the experience overpriced for the quality received.

"We have eaten here a few times over the years when we are on the coast, and let me tell you-this is one of the best spots we’ve eaten! Our most recent visit was in March 2025, and we were just happy with the service and the food.

We split the crab cakes appetizer, and I had the Chelsea Rose rockfish and chips, and my husband had Ona pasta as our entrees. We also split a bowl of clam chowder, which was delightful. The food was delicious, the cocktails were great, and our service was excellent.

The enclosed patio was nice too, especially since we had our pup along.

We will be back."

"Was HEAVILY disappointed coming here. I did a trip down the coast starting in Portland and this was for some reason a restaurant I was really looking forward to going to. The views are amazing, the atmosphere on the patio specifically is great and the staff were very kind and attentive.

The food on the other hand was extremely disappointing. I ordered the fish and chips and they came out (no exaggeration) 60 seconds later with the fries being cold and stale but the fish hot clearly coming fresh out the fryer. I got the impression maybe someone had ordered it previously or they mistakenly put it in and just gave it to me instead. I’m also a very big oyster girl, so I’m usually pretty aware of the general pricing, but $5 an oyster is just out of the question.

Overall I spent maybe 45 mins there from sit down to checking out. It’s definitely the best restaurant in the area but my experience was very poor. The only thing keeping me from putting it at 1 star was my lovely waitress and the view."

"Food was really good! The homemade sourdough was excellent! Had the Mexican shrimp, kinda a different/weird combo of marinara/pesto sauce, didn't really seen to go together, but good flavored shrimp! Also had the steak and mashed and was impressed, cooked to perfection! Clam chowder was good as well! Service was second to none!! Great goto in yachats!"

Restaurants in Yachats

Relatively snazzy for such a laid-back town, this bustling downtown bistro overlooking the confluence of the Yachats River and the Pacific is nonetheless unpretentious and relaxed. The specialty is locally and seasonally sourced Oregon seafood, such as Manila clams steamed with grape tomatoes, dry vermouth, garlic, and butter, or rare seared albacore with togarashi, smoked maitake mushrooms, and tamari green beans—try a glass of wine from the excellent regional wine list.
