About Big Wave Cafe

The Big Wave Cafe is a cozy restaurant that offers a variety of dishes in a relaxed atmosphere. It is known for its fresh and delicious seafood, including crab cakes, clam chowder, and grilled halibut. Customers praise the clam chowder bread bowl for its large size, creamy richness, and the bread's crunchy exterior and soft interior, which is some of the best sourdough around. The fish and chips are considered the best on the coast, and the fresh grilled Alaskan halibut with cilantro butter is highly recommended. The restaurant also serves popular dishes like the Tsunami burger, Reuben sandwich, and chicken Caesar salad. Desserts such as the peanut butter whipped cream pie, made from scratch by the chef’s mom, are a hit. The staff is attentive and friendly, with service praised for being efficient and caring, even during busy times. The restaurant is kid-friendly and easy to access with parking and wheelchair accessibility, making it a great choice for families or casual meals.
