The Depot Restaurant

Love it. Been eating here for over 20 years. Dependable food.
Always good

I have been going here since I worked for my dad’s dental office as a kid. The small shrimp salad is anything but small and has a ton of bay shrimp on top. The service is always great and it has a cool atmosphere. The fish and chips and chowder are also good.

Good chowder, fast service , pleasant atmosphere

We have had very positive experiences at The Depot. The first time there, I ordered a "medium" shrimp salad; there was so much shrimp on it that I had to take some home! My husband tried their chicken wings and rated them as Wonderful. Since then, we've tried their seafood and have never been disappointed in either the quality or the quantity of food.

I went here for lunch the other day and was kind of shocked to see how spendy this place was. They had a lunch special so it was more reasonable than dinner, but it was still expensive.

Food got out to us reasonably fast, but the quantity left something to be desired. I ordered the shrimp & fries, and there was a grand total of four shrimp. This wasn't enough to qualify as a main dish in my opinion. The rest of the plate was large-cut fries, which was the bulk of the meal considering how few shrimp there were. I thought they were pretty good, and they provided tartar and honey mustard sauces at my request for no extra charge which was a big plus, but some variety would have been nice. This place has very few items to choose from in general, and if you don't want fried food you are out of luck. The person I was with liked his meal even less. He got the fish & fries, and said the fish tasted frozen and some of the fries weren't cooked enough.

Add 2 shrimp, cut the price a dollar or two, and add some coleslaw or something and this place might be worth going to again. Until then, I'll pass.

Great lunch! The shrimp salads at this place are amazing and the portion sizes are huge! We got a small shrimp salad for lunch and it was more than enough for one person. This has been a fantastic place to eat fresh seafood in Albany for years, don't miss it!

The servers helped me right away after I sat at the counter. It was my first time to this place.. I ordered, waited, and brought it home and we ate. It made my wife and I sick. I'm also unimpressed about the price for food quality.

All right service was excellent. Product wasn't what I expected however I've not been 2 Taco Bell in a while and I expected they still had the southwestern style chalupa. How are the staff at the window and from what I seen and heard we're having a lot of fun and they were doing their job as expected.

Being Valentine's day, it was packed. The service and food was still good.
Back on a Sunday evening. The fish was overcooked and the replacement fish was undercooked. The service was terrible. The wait staff was more social than helpful.
Sad, I used to come here often. I guess I wont return.

Every meal that we have gotten from the Depot has always been one of the very best mom and pop sit down experiences! Sit down in a booth or at the counter bar and watch the sea salt fishies swim in their homes. The lemonade is the house specialty and is freshly squeezed, served out of a pitcher and it’s very delicious. The service is always the best and they make sure to always top off your drinks. The prices are very reasonable and the sea food is fresh from the Oregon ocean waters, that is trucked in.
