Beachfront Bistro

First night in Brookings and noticed that the Bistro was right across from where we were staying. Plus, it had an oceanview, so we decided to walk over. Great food and service. We started with blood orange margaritas and clams in white sauce. The drinks were tasty and very strong, and the clam appetizer was delicious. For our entrees, I ordered the half rack of lamb, and hubby ordered the bacon wrapped abalone. Both came with rice pilaf, grilled vegs, and a chicken tomato soap. The food was amazing. The portions were large enough to have leftovers for dinner the next night. We also took dessert home, bread pudding, and the flour less chocolate cake. Both were very tasty. The oceanview inspired us to take a walk along the beach afterward. What a great evening.

We found this place tucked away past our normal stops in Brookings. The staff were very friendly and there was plenty of seating, although we were there around 1, so a little after lunch. The service was egg efficient and thorough. The food was good. I had the clam chowder and while it was not the best in Brookings it was still very enjoyable. My son had the lunch salmon carbonara and it was very tasty. My daughter had the Asian Shrimp Salad and it was fantastic! It sounded like they can be pretty busy around dinner time. We would go back next time we're in town.

This bistro is by the beach, sort of. There is an rv park nearby. The place has lots of parking space and close to the docks. The servers were helpful. I ordered crab cake Benedict. It was good.

The food was good, the staff were friendly but they seemed short the night we were there, we waited for our check for 20 minutes. My salmon was great and my husband had a steak. His steak was not completely warm and lacked in flavor. We would visit and give them another try.

The food is 10/10! The prices are great and the staff is wonderful. Please stop and enjoy this food.
