On a bustling corner a block from the waterfront, Coos Bay's best restaurant is the Blue Heron Bistro ... An alluring mix of seafood, pasta and ethnic fare is listed on the voluminous menu. New Orleans-style blackened oysters and grilled salmon garnished with avocado-tomatillo salsa and corn relish are good catches, and the apple pie is definitely a keeper. For something different, try the Oktoberfest plate of sliced pork and German sausage sided by apple-kraut and hot potato salad. ... what emerges from the kitchen tastes pretty darn good, such as the blackened snapper sandwich packed into an onion roll ... Specials might include Mexican scampi, Wiener Schnitzel or baked fish and chips. Don't miss the huge and varied microbrew selection. Coos Bay ... The Blue Heron Bistro stands out in Coos Bay as an eclectic enclave of flavorful, interesting fare and reasonable pricing. While there is a bit of the something-for-everyone outlook here rather than a passionate expression of a personal food vision, what emerges from the kitchen tastes pretty darn good. Lunch shines with the blackened snapper sandwich, packed into an onion roll with mayo, green chilies, red onions ... Dinner choices tend to be grouped by theme (such as) Italian. Sauces include a sun-dried tomato version, pesto, tomato-basil, meatball or sausage. Sausage is the theme for the German identity, ... with red cabbage, sauerkraut, hot potato salad and two mustards ... (there is) a solid Cajun seafood selection, including intriguing blackened oysters... prices, too, are very friendly...
