The Pelicano Restaurant has a very good owner/chef, who puts a lot of effort into his top notch menu. The food is absolutely outstanding and the atmosphere and view are the best on the Long Beach Peninsula.

Some very tasty items on the menu. Dessert and crab cakes were tops. Oyster under seasoned. Cod was delicious. Recommend as good dining.

On a wintry Wednesday evening in December, I didn't have high expectations of finding anything like Pelicano in the small town of Ilwaco. As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted by friendly, professional staff, and an equally warm and friendly ambiance.

We had dinner here on a recent evening while staying in Long Beach, WA. Both of our meals were excellent. The servers were very friendly and one even followed us out the door to thank us. They also did a great job of helping out each other which we did not see in some other places we ate at. I... More
