Little River Inn Restaurant — Restaurant in Fort Bragg

Where do I begin? Nearly everything my husband attempted to order resulted in a return visit from the server to inform us that the kitchen was out of that dish. If he had greeted us properly and told us which dishes they were out of, we would have avoided that headache. At one point, the server came out to ask us where on the menu we had seen some of the items! He did not even know his own menu! My husband finally settled on the same dinner salad that I had ordered. When the salads came out, though, the server set an entirely different salad in front of my husband with a side of what he was calling "beets" to make up for the fact that they did not have the beet salad my husband wanted. So... it was not the salad that my husband ordered, and the "beets" were actually thinly-sliced pears with a red coloring on them. Luckily, he is not allergic to pears. We were missing a napkin and had no silverware. Dishes would get set down, and then no one would check on us... My goodness. The server never made it right for us, nor did the manager ever approach our table to offer apology or recompense. Ended up spending waaay too much money on food that was subpar and service that...

This was our first time dining at the Little River Inn Restaurant last night, for our one year friendiversary. The ambience of the bar when we walked in was SO good with Cameron playing the guitar and singing with such an incredibly soothing soul to his voice. We ended up moving our reservation from the dining room to the bar with its cozy corner nook to hear him play and soak in the ocean view. I wish he’d played the whole night! His energy was phenomenal to the space. Robert (I think his name was, but might’ve been something else, I’m terrible at remembering names) was a great server/bar tender who made you feel at home, and Natae was just lovely and felt like an old friend. The cod was so, so delicious and the presentation with the head and all was a work of art and fun to navigate. The sunset though!!! And the incredible rainbow upon arriving that hung just above the restaurant!!! Wow! Just added to the whole experience and set the bar pretty high. I’ll be expecting sunsets and rainbows on my next visit to the restaurant hehe 😉 Thank you all for making it such an enjoyable evening. I can’t wait to bring my husband here! He...

Little River Inn Restaurant was an unforgettable dining experience! We lucked out with a table by the window, and at first, the shade was down but then the staff opened it for us, revealing the most incredible view of the ocean. It was such a special touch that really set the tone for the evening.

Our server, Ashley, was amazing she made us feel like family from the moment we sat down. Her warmth and attentiveness made the entire night feel extra special. She loves people and her attitude was just so welcoming it alone could have made it a great night even without everything else being top notch.

The food was also fantastic. The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the petrale sole was delicate and delicious. We were so glad we stayed for dessert the chocolate brownie sundae was rich, decadent, and the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Between the stunning setting, the incredible service, and the delicious food, this place truly stands out. Next time, we’re definitely booking a stay at the inn, too!

And don’t miss the local...
