Roseanna's Cafe - Oceanside

Lunch with an ocean view and friendly service, what more could you ask for. The the fried oyster sandwich paired with the clam chowder was exactly what I was looking for on an overcast afternoon.

Best food, best atmosphere and really great staff. ?

The woman making coffees was fantastic but it went downhill fast after that. I believe our server was quite new so we cut him a break but the service was simply awful from him. He took our order, he dropped our food, and we never saw him again until we paid. It was wonderful from the lady up front though, so three out of five stars. The clam chowder was inedible. Lacking flavor outside of the mountain of Dill put in it. Can't say I ever had clam chowder with that much Dill or any Dill for that matter. But wow was it bad. We sent it back. The snug harbor was covered with some of the some Dill aioli which overpowered the dish. The potatoes were soft and underwhelming. We took a shot and it just simply missed the mark. Google reviews don't tell the whole story sometimes. Maybe breakfast is a lot better than lunch. The view outside is really nice though so it wasn't a total loss. Two people in our party said the burgers were acceptable. Hopefully this will help you avoid our same mistake. I have to give them credit for the good coffee drinks though.

Food is excellent. Fresh ingredients. Prepared individually. Exception for me was the clam chowder which to me lacked clams, more like potato soup. Can't beat overlooking a garden plot in front of the ocean. Service was earnest and pleasant

Came here for lunch during a family vacation and we were so impressed with the food! Everyone LOVED what they ordered. My husband and I got the Halibut Burger and my MIL got the Surfer Sandwich. We couldn't stop talking about this meal the rest of our trip. We were staying in Seaside, but if we were staying closer we definitely would've gone back for seconds! We also decided to get the Tollhouse Pie. It was one of the most amazing desserts I've ever had. It was like eating a cookie that had just come out of the oven. Still melty and gooey but in pie form. The view of the ocean was also so pretty to look at while eating our lunch. Highly recommend Roseanna's and can't wait to go back some day!
