Some of you previously mentioned a great Portland seafood buffet restaurant overlooking the Columbia. My wife and I would like to try it tonight.
So, what's it's name?
 
By the way, Salty 's Portland web page shows no buffet.
 
Salties breakfast buffet easily. Dungeness crab, oysters, prime rib… doesn’t get much better.
 
Seafood buffet sounds terrible. I like mine fresh.

Our go-to for seafood is Southpark downtown and Wildfin
 
I don't eat seafood.

The only time I eat fish is if I catch it
 
Has anyone tried My Brother's Crawfish?

It's out of the way for me but sounds like it's just my type of thing.

Salties buffet all tastes fresh to me. I’ve always thought it was great.

Yes, been there several times. Great food. Depending on the time you go you can get Oregon crawfish or Louisiana. Sometimes if you get the Louisiana it’s not as flavorful and tastes like it had been frozen prior. But it’s a great restaurant. I love their oysters.

Ok, I won't write it off till I try it then. I do like good seafood.

Edit: I just looked it up and it looks really good actually. Still not sure about a buffet but I'll definitely give it a try. I've drove past it a few times and commented on it looking good, didn't know that was the same place. Not my side of town though so it could be awhile

Why doesn't their menu for Portland on their web page show any buffets?

Love South Park. They are the only seafood restaurant that I've been to that serves shucked oysters without any trace of shell. Also, you can get grilled King Salmon medium rare so that the meat is cooked but not overcooked.
 
Not totally seafood. But I have heard Makoto's Japanese buffet in Vancouver is amazing. Lots of good sushi and such there.

I don't eat sushi except for a Korean style that contains nothing raw that my wife makes that I love.

You really have to go when they have fresh Lousiana Crawfish. There's a certain season for that, I think its in like February, but better to call to ask if they have fresh, makes a huge difference.

If Louisiana crawfish are like Oregon ones then the season is 365 days/year. I know they're farmed in Louisiana.

When you go to these Viet places, they usually say if its fresh or frozen crawfish.

I use to catch them all year long in Tryon creek in Oswego. My cousin dared me to eat one along with him so I did. I only ate the tail while he ate the tail and the thorax, Okay, I survived my dare and hope to never eat another. They taste okay, it's just the disgusting thought that got to me. Of course I've never had one with corn, potatoes and seasoning, just boiled in creek water in an empty coffee can. To me they were trash that just stole my bait when fishing for rainbow trout in the creek.

We used to go in the summers and had a spot in the Nehalem River outside of Vernonia where we got buckets of crawfish.
