“Pacific Sushi & Grill is hands down the best restaurant in Brookings

If you’re visiting the Oregon coast and only have time for one meal, make it here. The sushi is exceptional — fresh, beautifully crafted, and consistently outstanding every single visit. This isn’t your average coastal sushi spot; these folks take their craft seriously.

The bar scene has a genuinely cool vibe, and the drinks are next level. If you’re lucky enough to get Sandra as your server, you’re in for a treat. She’s the kind of hospitality pro who makes you feel like a regular from the moment you sit down — warm, genuine, and she knows her menu inside and out. Oh, and her martinis? Absolutely perfect. Don’t skip them.

The staff here just gets it. Friendly without being over the top, attentive without hovering — it’s that rare combination that keeps you coming back. Pacific Sushi & Grill never disappoints, and that consistency is everything.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is a must. It’s the kind of spot that turns a good trip into a great one.”

“excellent sandwiches and garlic fries!”

“Oh my gosh, we went here the other day for the 1st time and what a delight. From friendly staff, excellent breakfast and awesome coffee!! They have quite the menu selection. The inside is cozy and comfy. Kinda reminds you of home. A must try if you haven't yet!! We will be back to try other menu items. Thanks for bringing a great place to Brookings.”

“Seriously so happy we have this place in Brookings! The quality and flavor of the food for the price is so uncommon. Seriously cheaper than a poor quality fast food place. I cannot get enough of the smash burger! I have eaten here 2+ times a week since they opened.”

“We visited the Black Trumpet Bistro on a quiet, rainy Sunday night in December, to celebrate our engagement. We were seated as walk-ins with no wait. Our expectations were high after hearing a pair of locals share their story of a wonderful experience here. After being seated, we were greeted by Tyler. His masterful description of the specials made it difficult to pass on these dishes. We placed our order for an appetizer; my fiancée chose the cioppino, and I chose the ribeye steak with garlic mashed potatoes, resisting the temptation of the steak and lobster, and adding a side of champagne risotto that was paired with the aforementioned surf and turf. Tyler brought us some warm rosemary focaccia bread with oil and balsamic, which was quickly devoured. Our appetizer arrived; we chose the whipped ricotta crostini . A perfectly toasted crostini, a light spread of fluffy ricotta, topped with a blend of tomatoes, balsamic, and basil. Delicious and juicy with a touch of sweet, we were very excited for the rest of our meals after this dish set a high bar! While waiting for our main course, we began to look over the cocktail menu and wine list. We didn't plan on having cocktails or wine, but their offerings made our choice to abstain seem like we could really be missing out. We tried two specialty cocktails, both of which were very well received. One seasonal, “Grinch”-themed cocktail nailed the color and went down smooth. The other, the “Blueberry Hill,” with house-infused blueberry liqueur, was also excellent. I also ordered a glass of Ferrari-Carano Sauvignon Blanc (Kim Crawford is also available) with the thought that it would pair well with the champagne risotto. The wine list had some of my personal favorites, like Conundrum’s red blend and varieties from Duckhorn, Rombauer, and Caymus. A very good list! Our entrées arrived, along with more bread, and looked excellent. The cioppino was piled high. My fiancée had no complaints and soaked up nearly all the delicious broth with the warm focaccia. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and was incredibly tender. The gorgonzola cream sauce was thinner than I expected but still had great flavor that paired well with the ribeye, and probably would with any steak. The risotto left just a tiny bit to be desired, but I imagine when it is served with the dish it was intended for (the lobster tails or steak and lobster), it would really have given me what I was looking for! We also ordered the chocolate cake for dessert. Presented well and served cold, it was thick and rich. It certainly checks the box for chocolate lovers, but I suspect this is not a dish that is made in-house. I could be wrong, but it didn't strike me as though this place has a dedicated pastry chef handling the desserts. All in all, we had an excellent meal and would encourage others to visit this establishment. Constructive criticisms: The presentation of the ribeye could be improved. It’s tough to serve mashed potatoes and make them pretty. My only suggestion would be to pipe them through a pastry bag or switch from mashed potatoes to another potato dish, like a Hasselback or layered au gratin. But to be clear, my dinner was in no way disappointing. The tables are set with a tablecloth and a “roll-up” of silverware. This is fine! But a candle, salt and pepper shakers, and maybe setting the silverware with a bread plate would really make these tables feel a bit more luxurious and inviting. If these are the best criticisms I can come up with, this place is doing something very right! Great job, Black Trumpet Bistro! You made our engagement celebration truly memorable.”

“My husband and I had a great experience at this brewery just last week while visiting from out of town. The atmosphere was welcoming, the beer was great, and the overall vibe made us want to come back again before our trip was even over.

We stopped in on a Sunday night received such great service and felt completely welcomed. We enjoyed it so much that we came back again Monday night and were happy to see the same bartender working. She was so sweet and attentive, and we really appreciated all the recommendations and local insight she shared with us while we were visiting.

Overall, it was such a fun experience with great drinks, great service, and a great atmosphere. We’ll definitely make a point to visit again next time we’re in town.”

“Dinner last night …Super nice people and the food was excellent .. go check it out”

“great food, high quality ingredients.”

“We just moved to Crescent City not too long ago and the options for vegans are slim. While we were in Brookings yesterday I ordered the Vachos and the veggie wrap to take home for dinner! my goodness the best food I have had in a long time! The lady that helped me was super kind and helpful! She shared my enthusiasm with that vegan cheese! The rest of the day I annoyed my husband with how much I love that food! I can't wait to come back!”

“Stopped in last night and had a couple of IPAs that were delicious. Also love the theme! The brewer was super friendly and even gave us a mini tour even though it was close to closing. We’ll definitely be coming back here next time we pass through!”

“Amazing food that never disappoints! They have the best breakfast burritos that you can customize! Chile rellenos are very good as a plate or in a burrito, fish tacos are a must try! Great food at a reasonable price, very authentic and seasoned well!”

“Stopped in here while visiting family - one of the best sandwich spots we’ve ever been to. Every time we travel we love to find a good sandwich spot and let me tell you, we’d drive the 14 hours from home again just to get this food. Thank you Railroad Deli!”

“We are on a last minute road trip to enjoy this weather and we chose this place to accommodate my kid and I was expecting to pay like 50$ and our total came out to 32$. We asked if it was a mistake and he said no. Definitely a great deal for this fed 6 hungry souls and gave a us a great variety and the food is quite good. The pepperoni has a touch of spice which is enjoyable. The jojos and chicken with the BBQ sauce is bomb... Thank you for a great meal as we are on our journeys to the redwoods!”

“Everything they make is good.”

“The best little coffee shop hands down! Coffee is locally roasted and the variety of drinks is amazing. Fully customizable drinks that range from coffees to smoothies and the Booster, a great pick me up if someone isn't in the mood for Java. Near the port and other shops so you can grab a drink, maybe a pastry, and enjoy the coast!”

“Kyler was seriously one of the best workers I've met in a while. Fast, friendly, and funny. Very efficient. I wish I had coworkers like him😎😁🤘”

“Awesome coffee shop. The baristas were very kind, very efficient and very pleasant to interact with. The coffee was great and the Peach Cobbler Scone was crazy good. Great views. Great atmosphere and the locals who hang here were very friendly. If you're in the area, hit this place up.”

“The poor girl was by herself, but she was super fast and managed to keep an upbeat attitude while under pressure. We got 3 drinks and they all came out perfect! We made sure to tip well, she deserved it!”

“My son just was mailed a Dutch bros gift card yesterday for finishing kindergarten registration.. he knocked on all the neighbors door showing them and asking their order 😆 he slept with it, and even took it to school with him today. It hasn’t left his hand ❤️ not so much a review, but I thought it was adorable. (But duh, we all love Dutch! )”

“Great food, service, and atmosphere! An absolute must try in Brookings!”

“I ordered takeout from the kitchen and I was floored. The two ladies that run the kitchen are amazing. They make fresh decadent flavored cheesecakes that differ in flavors almost everytime you go. I had the brownie cheesecake and the caramel apple one (I couldn't put my fork down!). The Italian sub was pretty good as was the salad we got. Definitely going back for more cheesecake!”

“I went in for lunch with friends for WA today. The best BLT I’ve ever had. And my friend’s French Dip looked so delicious. The prices were very reasonable. The SUGAR FREE Brownie was amazing. (How did they do that?). Absolutely wonderful!”

“Fun DJs and dancing on the coast, interesting crowd. Good pool tables and hot local chicks down to party. Slots if that's your thing. I heard you can watch games on TV and the burgers are good, if you watch games and eat burgers.”

“I love this place, everytime I'm in town I stop and get something different. Top notch food great service!!!! Give them a try you won't be disappointed!!!!”

“Was here for dinner when they opened at 4 pm. Come early. They fill up. Menu is delightful and hard to choose what you want. I had the shrimp with mango salsa and bacon over grits. The bacon was a little salty for me but taste blended really well with the mangos. Shrimp was Devine. I love grits and to tell the truth I could have made a meal of just grits they were so good. Definitely will be back next trip. I do wish they would add tiramisu for a desert choice. We had the chocolate mousse It was wonder like eating a truffle.”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Baja Tacos and the Sliders. We had a great experience and it was all sooo good. We will definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pics in comments!”

“I did not know you could get full off oysters. The Oyster Shooters are huge and delicious. I was able to get full off 4 and shrimp cocktail. My wife kiddos said the clam chowder and fish n chips were great as well!”

“My favorite spot for a family dinner. The food is fantastic, recipes taste like they’ve been created over generations of people who love celebrating life around good food. I highly recommend the mocajete if you like heat.”

“We come to Crescent City once a year and always stop at Dairy Queen in Brookings, OR They have a beautiful new building.”

“great staff, even greater food! great selection of local brews”

“Can we all say Steamer clams. YUM!! It's by far the best I have had in a 400 miles radius. I have had them at many places and none compare to the Catalyst. The flavor is on point, that sausage really tops it off. I will always get the steamers. Also the Coastal Lemonade drink is awesome 👌. Their fresh oysters are great too when served on the half shell, not a fan of the ones served in a plastic cup. Just doesnt feel right. Happy to see they are serving their drinks in glasses now, not plastic cups. I highly suggest checking this spot out. They offer out door seating which is great on a sunny day. 🌞 customer service has always been good.”

“Good food and good service. Please turn down the live music. It is so loud both inside and out that you can't talk over it. Nice music, it's just a couple of notches too loud. Thanks!”

“Great food all around the best around on the coast for sure. Sizes are proportional as well as the flavor. Owners are amazing as well as staff. Cozy atmosphere”

“The person that used to be there at 1 am did an amazing job. It's a shame they no longer work here. Still, this place has quality food and great service! Unfortunately, NO NOUNS allowed!”

“great food and better service”

“awesome food, great prices, great service, the people are very friendly and fast! highly recommend them.”

“Our family orders food from here, often. Good food, generous portions, at a decent price. Convenient location to grab and go.”

“Great starbucks that we've come to expect, but One of your barista's, Sam, did a fantastic job!”

“The restaurant had a relaxed, casual feel and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit.

I ordered a combination plate with a chile relleno, enchilada, and taco with rice and beans. The chile relleno was probably the standout on the plate.

Overall, it wasn’t the most amazing Mexican food I’ve ever had, but it was a good, comfortable meal with large portions and a nice environment.”
