History of Dutchman's Seafood House

Paul Van Beurden and family arriving in USA from their native Netherland, 1957 Our family emigrated from The Netherlands to Fresno in 1957, Mom and Dad brought with them nine children, the family had lots of mouths to feed. That is one reasonwhy we are in the restaurant business! Mom and Dad taught us the values of a strong work ethic and the will to succeed as we helped to support the family. We startedin the restaurant business in 1964 in the Yosemite Valley, then moved here to the coast in 1968. Our Family has been part of the local restaurant scene for many years.

Our goal is to provide you with friendly service and quality home cooked meals in a relaxing family friendly atmosphere, we strive to treat every guest of Dutchman'sSeafood House as part of our family.

Came in for lunch on a Monday. Received excellent service and food. Oysters are delicious and Bloody Mary was tasty, but not very strong. Clam chowder was fantastic. Recommend this spot for sure!

Crab-melt was delicious. Clam chowder in a bread bowl was really tasty. The restaurant staff was very accommodating to our large party with several small children. Beautiful views of the Bay. I am pretty partial to Dutch people/family owned restaurants. This was a winner

Delicious food. Great view. Service was sub par. If I'm paying a good amount for dinner, I'd expect a tad better service. But food was excellent and that's what will keep me coming back!

Our favorite spot in Morro Bay. Delicious food and beautiful views. The one reason i didnt give 5 stars is the the chowder is always changing. Sometimes is savory and flavorful, sometimes its bland. I wish they'd just stay with one buttery, bacon, celery inspired chowder recipe.
