April DockBox Menu
Updated: Apr 27, 2022
Spring is in the air and brings fresh fish on the horizon. This month, we showcase two local fisheries: Oregon pink shrimp and Chinook salmon. And there is still time to enjoy our late Winter favorites including Yaquina Bay oysters, Weathervane scallops, and wild Alaskan spot prawns.
To squeeze it all in we're bringing you not one but TWO entrée lineups. That's right, we're offering entirely different entrée menus for the first and latter halves of April. Plus, we're introducing some awesome new specials, vegetarian meals, and add-on kits - including dessert!
If you have any questions or need help placing an order, please don't hesitate to reach out! Send an email to dockbox@localocean.net or text us at (541) 283-1640
APRIL MENU A
Available April 2nd - 15th
The popular Moqueca de Peixe (Brazilian Stew) is back! This stew delights with wild prawns, Dungeness crab, rockfish, and veggies in a green curry and coconut milk broth. Its scent is intoxicating, and its taste is divine.
Celebrate Easter with our Crab-Stuffed Salmon entrée! Dig into first-of-the season fresh Chinook salmon, stuffed with local Dungeness crab and pink shrimp topped with our house-made cumin cream sauce. Served alongside horseradish-whipped mash potatoes and blanched broccolini.
Bring home the taste of Newport with our classic Pan-Fried Oysters. These panko-crusted Yaquina Bay oysters are served with our housemade tartar sauce, fries, and fennel slaw.
Cook up a couple of Fish Tacos, made using Cajun seasoned local rockfish and topped with mango pico de gallo, queso cotija, and salsa verde.
Turn up the heat with our popular Shrimp & Spicy Noodle Salad. Showcasing Oregon pink shrimp atop a medley of vegetables and yakisoba noodles, cooked together in our signature sesame chili dressing.
Vegetarians delight in the Vegetarian Tempeh & Spicy Noodle Salad - a spicy bowl of tempeh, vegetables, and yakisoba noodles, cooked together in our hot sesame chili sauce.
APRIL MENU B
Available April 16th - 29th
We’re bringing back a DockBox favorite in late April with Chef Enrique’s special Scallop Risotto! Seared Weathervane scallops shine on a mix of risotto, squash, parsnip, and spinach with parmesan cheese and mint-basil gremolata.
Delight in the all-new Spot Prawn Gumbo. Premiering in DockBox for the first time, this dish stars peel-and-eat Alaskan spot prawns and features mussels, fresh Manila clams, and Andouille sausage. A hearty mix of arborio rice, black bean, red bell pepper, spinach, onion, and celery supports the gumbo, making it a surefire hit.
Bite into a juicy piece of Albacore tuna in our popular Tuna Reuben. Sandwiched between pieces of marbled rye with melted Swiss cheese, Louie dressing, and beer-braised sauerkraut, which we prepare in house with Depoe Bay Brewing's Icelandic Porter.
Bring home a classic with our Rockfish Fish & Chips meal. These lean, flaky fillets are complemented by our signature fennel slaw, fries, and housemade tartar sauce.
Savor our classic Coho Salmon Dinner. This Local Ocean mainstay showcases Coho salmon atop veggies, linguini, roasted poblano pepper, and Oregonzola cheese, all married together in our signature tomato-saffron sauce.
The new Vegetarian Portobello & Blue Cheese Linguini Dinner features grilled portobello mushroom, roasted poblano pepper, and melted Oregonzola atop a bed of veggies and linguini pasta in our signature tomato-saffron sauce.
