Side Door Cafe & Eden Hall

WOW! The sommelier at Salishan Lodge recommended this restaurant to us and we had an outstanding experience! Loved the atmosphere, the fun vibe and friendly servers. Everything is rich and satisfying. We will be coming back every time we are in Gleneden! Thank you Josh for your knowledge and good sense of humor while waiting on us!

Absolutely delicious food, atmosphere, and wait staff! This was my second time here and it was even better than the first. ☺️

Our first time to Side Door Cafe for our 5th anniversary dinner. We had the ribeye steak and the crab encrusted halibut. I also had a cup of the seafood chowder. We had 2 cocktails and a bottle of wine. The food, service and atmosphere were all very good. We'll be back.

This place for me was an all encompassing experience. Not only is the food DIVINE, the atmosphere beautiful, the service excellent, it is one of those places that leaves you with a lasting memory that brings a smile to your face, at least does mine. I love the design of the restaurant! It's like a little gemstone sitting in the middle of the tinest, little coastal, one horse town and believe me, I do mean one horse! It's on the more expensive side but oh SO worth it. They also sell deserts, which I've been told are very delicious. I ordered the shrimp quesadias which were unbelievably scrumptous! They completely covered a large plate. Needless to say I had more than one meal to enjoy later. My meal came with 2 sauces, one being verde and the other I believe was a creamy cheese sauce both were wonderful. I also had a pretty peach drink (I can't remember the name now) but it too was delicious. My friend ordered the crab cakes & cole slaw, which was also very delicious. Last but not least, what a cool name for a restaurant! 😋

Alyssa was our server tonight, I had the cheeseburger and it was sooo good. My husband had the crab cakes and shrimp and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Saving the Key Lime Pie for dessert. Happy 42nd Anniversary to us!!

Such a wonderful dining experience. My wife and I both ordered the "specials". She ordered the salmon and I the halibut. My halibut was perfectly cooked and the flavor was devine. Best I've ever had. We also ordered the fried oysters as an appetizer. Best fried oysters I've had. My wife who didn't like oysters loved them too. The atmosphere here is so romantic. Loved the lightning and the room soaks up the sound so it's not too loud. Great place for a date night.

Amazing, as always. The food and service are quality. The flavor combinations, portions, plating, service, and ambiance are all fabulous. I love that they have actual vegetarian options. I consider them to be our only true "artisan" restaurant in the area, and always send my customers to them. This time I had the coconut curry soup, wild mushrooms raviolis, and salted carmel bread pudding, paired with a marionberry cider. Usually, I get the Portobello Mushroom burger, that always makes me do the happy food butt dance when I eat it. My whole family raved about each of their meals. I'll be having the veggie risotto next time. I tried my sister's and it was fabulous. Do yourself a favor and eat there, but make a reservation, and bring an appetite.

we were a group of 6, and everyone loved their food and overall experience. i sampled the crab cocktail and fried oysters - they were very good. my main was a special; salmon on a bed of greens with a lot of fresh berries - i loved every bite! we are staying nearby, and it was a very pleasant surprise to find such a great place. our friends that live on the coast said they would go out of their way to come back. you won’t be disappointed - but be sure to make a reservation!

“Never a bad meal at Side Door”

When I moved here, everyone told me this. It’s true. The interior is classy upscale, but wear a baseball cap if you want, no one cares. Great cocktail menu and pay attention to the specials. The Halibut is always a great choice, but when the lamb chops are on the specials menu, I can’t pass them up. Reservations are a good idea, but a half dozen bar spots and another half dozen bar rail spots absorb the overflow nicely if you are winging it through town. Great service. My go to for a date night with my wife.

My only complaint is that I didn’t get a chance to eat here twice while in town :)

The food was absolutely fantastic and next time we’re in town we will make sure to get to this place for dinner again!

I had the Parmesan Crusted Halibut with Risotto and it was killer and perfectly prepared 👍🏻
