Norma's Ocean Diner

"A close view of Crab Louis. Those big hunks of crab meat are indescribably moist and ocean-sweet. The 1000 Island dressing comes on the side for either dipping or drizzling. Shrimp Louis is also available."
Michael Stern






"Norma's boasts that its chowder is pork free, but that doesn't mean it isn't rich as sin. Creamy and deliriously savory, it is available as a cup (shown here) or a meal-size bowl. Garlic toast comes on the side."
Michael Stern



"Petrale sole is a West Coast treasure. Here it is lightly pbreaded and pan-fried, accompanied by garlic toast and excellent cole slaw."
Michael Stern



"Norma's has been open over a quarter-century. It is a modest restaurant with exemplary Oregon food."
Michael Stern



"In the fish & chips combo, you get to try cod, albacore, salmon and halibut. Just don't ask me which one is which!"

"We didn't love all the desserts, but who can resist this marionberry cobbler with a scoop of Tillamook vanilla bean ice cream?"
