We happened upon Kelly's after walking through the old town in Florence and are so glad we went in. The decor, ambience, service were all amazing. Amy greeted us warmly and as soon as we sat down, we knew we were there for the night! The crostini's are phenominal with the freshest crab we have enjoyed on the coast. The... More

Amy from Maryland, our server was fantastic, on a cold, chilly, windy night ...she was warm and delightful. The food was fantastic as well....good for us we were there during the late winter, early spring...because there is limited seating. I'm sure this little joint is hoppin' in the summer....thanks for everything...Lala (the shaved head girl!) and Scott.

We had walked by here a couple days ago and they had the door open which brought a yummy aroma outside. We decided to drive back from Newport today to have lunch with them since when we walked by the other day we weren't ready to eat! Everything met our expectations from the crab cake sandwich to the salad to... More

My husband and I love "Old Town" Florence. A charming, historical seaside town. Plus, it just happens to have one of the best waterfront restaurants on the Central Oregon Coast, Kelly's Cantina. With attention to expertly preparing from the best local products. A pleasing and delightful American Contemporary Cuisine awaits you. Their serving proportions are perfect, so not a morsel... More

Excellent food, drink and ambiance. River front dining at it's finest. Mouth watering appetizers, mind blowing entree's and cocktails extradinaire!! The staff is friendly, courteous and dedicated to your every need. Kelly's is a jewel tucked away in a small town on the Siuslaw River located in the central Oregon Coast. The menu is a treasure trove of both gourmet... More

On a recent trip to Florence, my husband, sister, and I stopped in for a late afternoon glass of wine and enjoyed the ambience so much we decided to stay for dinner. Amy's service was impeccable, and our food was delicious. My sister and I both love razor clams, so during dinner we asked if the clams might be available.... More

All the elements of a good restaurant. I never expect to eat well at the coast - mediocre at best - but this restaurant is now a new favorite. We sat in laid back ambience at the confluence of the Siuslaw River and the ocean with binoculars provided. I had the fish tacos which were excellent with a medium spicy... More

This place has a nice river view and an excellent bar. They are very generous with their pours. The food is wonderful but you don't get much of it. It is a little pricey compared to other restaurants in town but it is worth it for the peace and quiet. The pork tacos are amazing.
