Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce. Both food items were tasty and satisfying.  My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too. It was time for a meal there again.  For dessert, we walked about ten minutes west to  Voodoo Doughnut . The Seattle location opened late last ye...

Dinner at Mo's Seafood and Chowder in Florence, OR

 

Cheers to cocktails and seafood at Mo's with views of the Siuslaw River. 


When visiting the Oregon Coast, treating yourself to some local seafood is a must. One tried and true spot with lots of locations along the OR Coast is Mo's. During our stay in Florence, we dined there and enjoyed some really good seafood and drinks. Mo's is fun because they have a giant gift shop right when you enter. This location also had fun beach themed signs everywhere. But the views of the Siuslaw River and the seafood are the real draw. 

My husband and I started with a cocktail. He had a Long Island and I enjoyed one of Mo's signature drinks, a Sea Breeze. To eat, he had the Cod Fish and Chips and I had the Cod Fish Tacos. They were so delicious and fresh and had a spicy jalapeno garlic cilantro cabbage. There were three corn tortilla tacos, and the cod was flour dusted and grilled. I was impressed with the tacos and would order them again. My son tried shrimp for the first time. He ordered the kid's Fried Shimp with Fries and he loved them. Our other son had the grilled cheese with fries, and it disappeared fast. 

Our server was really sweet and attentive, taking a family photo for us and chatting with us. Mo's is such a fun spot to eat at on the Oregon Coast!
