McGrath's Fish House is one of the seafood restaurant in Oregon offering the Northwest original pacific favourite like salmon,
halibut, red snapper, razor clams and oysters to
catfish and prawns from the Gulf, to live Maine
lobster and sea scallops from the East Coast, and
even more exotic choices such as mahi mahi,
swordfish, yellow fin tuna, sea bass and more. It is a great dining place with some of the best selection of fish and seafood as well as friendly staff.
During my last visit to the Cedar Hills Crossing shop, my friends and I waited for about 15 minutes before we were seated by the door person and given the menu. Since I'm a seafood lover, by just looking at the menu itself is already mouth watering and we were really spoilt with the handful selection of seafood.
I must say, overall the restaurant looks like an old cottage from fishing village and the wall is scribbled nicely as part of the decoration. It feels cozy in the restaurant, although like the Outback Steakhouse, the restaurant feels a bit too dark for my liking. Anyway, I think it is quite standard for the western restaurants and bistros.
I can't really recall what I ordered on that day, but I'm pretty sure that it is the combination of seafood like prawns, scallops, crab legs and clam strips coupled with Caesar's salad. I must say the servings of the food is almost just right - I cannot usually finish up my food in the United States because of the big servings.
The seafood is steamed first and then cooled with ice before serving to the customer so that the freshness of the seafood is preserved. I know it would be a bit messy especially since I have the crab legs as well, but to my surprise, it is easy to open the crab legs with the crab cracker that was provided.
The food was definitely prepared in the western style and taste differently than how you would expect to get from the seafood restaurants in Asia which relies heavily on ginger and spices to bring the best out from the seafood. The seafood that I had is fresh, and the meat especially the crab legs were sweet and the scallops and clams were just juicy even on its own.
