Tastebuds Bistro - Lincoln City

Great breakfast, everything cooked perfectly, attentive service. Menu so varied, difficult to make a decision.

This cute little Bistro is right on hwy 101 as you get to Siletz Bay. They have an extensive breakfast and lunch menu with all the staples. Most everything seems to be made on site from the sausage links to the handbreaded chicken Fried Steak to a variety of gravies. The portions are massive! Picture is a HALF order of biscuits and gravy! The food is well prepared, eggs cooked properly, bread toasted nicely. All that said, salt and pepper throughout the cooking process would do a world of good.We were greeted promptly and hot coffee came out swiftly. The waitresses were cheery and polite, very attentive. The restaurant has all sorts of things to look at, and an impressive collection of hot sauces.

Hubby had corned beef hash n eggs and I had French toast with 2 eggs on top. Excellent breakfast, nice owner staff. Clean restaurant and lots of wall decor to look at and read. Don’t pass this place up.

Great burger selection and fries and homemade potato chips. The servers did a fun beer sampling for us as well. Will go again. Nicely accessible through a door immediately next to the blue spot.

Spectacularly surprised.Musta been asleep at the wheel for too long and passed this south Lincoln City restaurant many times, thinking (wrongly) that this was the same place I had visited years prior. Found that new owners had been doing a spectacular job for past two and half years, and I had been missing out.Daughter was visiting and we were exploring opportunities after I recognized it wasn't the same signage or prior owners, after entering.Service and food were top notch. I had Chicken Fried Steak and expected single slice of French Toast, and got three instead. No problem, even though more than I usually eat, it was all so good I force-fed myself it all. (see pix of food, not me)My daughter had a half order of biscuits and gravy and side of hash browns. Tons of biscuits/gravy for a half.Service was awesome. Busy but no chaos. Staff right on the mark, as we discussed how to keep a smile while having tongue piercing. Not here though.There is a complication on their hours depending on who you use for your dine search. When my daughter was looking up Tastebuds, it showed them being closed SA/SU, which is not true. Their actual restaurant hours are 8-2pm W-M, except Tues. the only day restaurant is closed.CheersParking: Parking in front and north side of building appeared to be adequate for all tables full.
