Fun little restaurant that serves good value seafood options. I've eaten at the Newport location and now here at Otter Rock. I had Alaskan cod fish tacos and a cup of clam chowder. My Mom had clam chowder and a $3 skewer of shrimp. Fish tacos had a huge chunk of tasty cod in each one (3 tacos to an order), some cabbage and creamy green tomatillo sauce. Also had a side of (stewed?) tomatoes that I added into my tacos. Tacos could be improved if they had more spice, but overall they were very good. Clam chowder was creamy and had nice clam chunks in there, it too could be more heavily spiced, but was enjoyed by both of us. Service was attentive considering how busy the place was. Many tables in there seat 8 in a row, so groups of 4 might find another group of 4 sitting next to them.. I saw this Europe back in the day.. doesn't bother me but might throw some people off.. hey it's a way to meet randoms and eat faster. Overall a good experience.

Our family has been visiting the Oregon Coast and Mo's West at Otter Rock since the 80's, from WA, the Valley and as far away as Arizona! It's become a family tradition that now includes grandchildren and even a great grandchild. The last visit was very special as it was my daughter "Mo's", (short for Monique) birthday! It was a very special to meet here again as a family and share it with her teen age son, cousins and extended family! Great food, great service, amazing location and views and some of the best tide pools around as it is a preserve!! Also a very clean and sandy beach and hiking trails. It has everything! I am now a local, so am happy to be able to visit anytime! Thanks Mo's!!

Being originally from New Zealand, I can with full confidence say I know seafood. Ordered the Sauté and was happily surprised. Had the LARGEST scallops I've seen in years, decently sized mussels (wish they were as big as the green-lipped ones back home) and other local shellfish (clams, cockles, etc.) Wasn't overly cooked and you could still taste the ocean through the garlic and wine sauce. A+ Friend's daughter (who's 4 and a picky eater) readily gobbled up the house clam chowder, and from the one taste I was allowed off her plate, it was pretty d*mn amazing.

Mo's West holds many fond childhood vacation memories for me. I hadn't been there in years and years until my sister got married at Devil's Punch Bowl today. Mom's West staff did a great job serving our party of 20+ guests in that tiny little restaurant... and with a cook in training. I feel bad for that poor cook who had to work so hard while new on the job! The only issue was overflowing cups of tasty chowder and chili which the waitress served on plates. Hard to complain about a little extra nom noms. 🤣

I got a cup of the famous clam chowder to-go. The sauce had clearly broken. :( If your chowder gets too hot and breaks down that's unfortunate. But I don't think you should serve that to paying customers. Also if you're claiming to be the clam chowder place and you didn't get that right makes me wonder about the rest of the menu. I don't know if my experience reflects this place all the time. Maybe the chowder is usually spot on. I'm just reviewing it based on the only time I ever went there.
