    Not worth it. Tourist trap with very dry salmon and lukewarm, thick chowder. We forced ourselves to eat some of it before we got back on the ship.

    Absolutely amazing place with great view. The king crab legs were seriously amazing super fresh and cooked perfectly. But what really stood out was our waitress, Austin! She was so friendly, fun to chat with and made the whole experience even better. Great energy, super attentive, and just overall awesome. Definitely coming back! Thank you Austin!

    We missed our flight due to some issues with the airline stranding us in Ketchikan for the day. Lucky us we stopped in to enjoy lunch. Friendly staff. Cold beer. Great deals on crab legs. Wide open dining hall very inviting place to enjoy some real fresh seafood.

    Enjoy King Crab and great service here It was our last chance to have Alaskan King Crab in Alaska and it was not to be missed. After touring through the shopping district and getting omiyage and souvenirs, we had sufficient time to sit down for Alaskan King Crab that had not left the state (lol). We bumped into folks who were leaving and asked for their recommendation. Thumbs up! We were promptly greeted and seated. Our server was especially helpful and friendly -- made us feel at home here! Hope to make a return visit in the near future!

    We wanted to try some King Crab and got a leg to go for $50-60. Ate it on a bench outside the building. Split it between 4 adults and a toddler. My granddaughter loved it. If you are a cruise, I would get crab at another place/town because of the cost.

    Being the closest king crab shop by the pier likely leads many people to this restaurant located upstairs. I would tell them to keep walking. There was about. 25-30 min. wait for a table, and while that was to be expected with 2 ships in port, it was the lack of service and extra fees that drives the score for this restaurant. After finally getting seated, it took another 15 minutes to have a waiter even acknowledge us. It took a while longer to even get water and ultimately order. Once we got the crab, it had good flavor, though was definitely a bit pricey. The fries that came with it were crispy and coated. The final surprise came with the bill as there were multiple charges for both a mandatory tip and a kitchen service fee. This seems a bit overkill and explains why the lackluster service as they have no need to go above and beyond or even go beyond the bare minimum since they were assured a tip. This should be made clear on the menu or on signage as required in many other locales as I'm sure many people have tipped extra. This is not somewhere I'd likely return as there are other places to get crab legs with a bit farther walk.

    Most expensive crab and seafood in Alaska. I'd expect for the prices that are charged that the service and food would be exquisite, however average is a much better term to describe it. Restrooms were dismal and dirty as well. Most appalling is the undisclosed 18% gratuity which is automatically added. The company should invest more in its customer experience and product if it expects to automatically charge such gratuity.

    We traveled to Alaska from the US on a cruise and I was so excited to have some authentic Kong Crab Legs. The restaurant was open and spacious. We were welcomed by friendly staff and taken to an open table with a beautiful view of the ship. It took a minute for our server but we were patient. We she was knowledgeable about the menu when we asked about potion sizes. My fiancé ordered the beer sampler. This was 4 small local beers from the area. We split the crab legs and they didn't disappoint. You could tell they were fresh. They were hot and easy to pick. The butter was perfectly melted and soo good. I wish we could get these as good in Denver. Our waitress was friendly and we made short talk about the states and how she likes living in Alaska. I would definitely go back again. I would totally recommend if you're in the area. :)

    The fish & chips steal the show! They were SO delicious that my family and I ended up ordering an extra entree. They were so fresh and they were fried perfectly. The crab we ordered was okay - nothing special, a little bit more on the dry side which was a little upsetting. Shrimp was nothing special. Service was great - the host and our waiter were very attentive.

    We came here after a local recommendation The salmon was OK, but we were hoping for more smoked salmon with more flavor however, this one was grilled with very minimal flavor. Even so the service was absolutely incredible and the view on the third floor was great. The cruise ships blocking the ocean. There is a large bar area and plenty of seating even for large families

    A nice find! Located on the 3rd floor across from the docks. Many places had lines including general bathrooms. I went in and there was no line, bathrooms were clean and the service was excellent. Ordered our food to go since we had to be back on the ship soon. While we waited I ordered a "duck fart", it was good! The food was delicious!!! We sat out on our deck and had our lunch. My husband said the fish was amazing and I had the crab wontons, they were fully stuffed and fantastic!!! I also bought one of their cute hats! Enjoy!!!

    On a recent Alaskan cruise, this was our lunch spot during the Ketchikan port day. As it's located…read morein a very busy shopping district and next to the Lumberjack show, this is a popular spot. On a drizzly July day with several cruise ships docked, we waited over 30 minutes during the prime lunch hour to order our food, with the line far outside the door and onto the sidewalk. But the line moves fast and we found seats in the 2nd dining room (there's also outdoor seating weather permitting). The food came quickly, a little over 10 minutes after we ordered. My wife chose the Alaskan Sampler Fish & Chips, with one of each of the 3 fried fish options: Pacific Cod, local Silver Salmon and local Halibut. It also came with a generous portion of fries as well as a side of coleslaw. Of all the fish, the halibut was her favorite. She surprisingly enjoyed the coleslaw, as it was dressed with a house-made vinaigrette and wasn't sweet (like many other places use mayo and relish). There was malt vinegar and ketchup on the tables. My salad had a huge salmon filet covering it, with vinaigrette on the side. It was very filling, and I felt better about myself for choosing a healthier option at port after days of overeating on this cruise. We did order sodas with our meal. There is a self-serve soda fountain with free refills. There is also a small bar inside the dining room where you can order draft beer as well as wine and cocktails.

    This is not bad but I don't think their fried fish is as good as their grilled/blackened fish…read morebecause of the oil. The place is located close to the pier so very convenient if you are coming from the cruise lines. The place is popular but they do have enough seating that although you may need to wait a bit you can eventually find seating. It's rustic and a fitting place for the kind of food they serve. The crab is ridiculously overpriced. The fish and chips is also expensive but at least you get to pick the fish between salmon, cod or halibut. The breading is slightly thick for my liking but my main problem has to do with the oil. I usually prefer fresher oil. The food is ok. I think the blackened salmon is probably the best bet for most of the items they offer such as the rice bowls or the tacos. You order first and then you get seating. They clean up quickly so if you wait for a table you don't have to wait long. Overall it's a food tourist spot that has overly expensive food but not bad enough to avoid. They have a patio and the interior is rustic fish house style.

    Easily the best Food of our Alaskan Cruise!…read more After wasting time and money at one of the crab restaurants on the island we were still hungry as we waited for our shuttle. We saw this taco spot and figured we'd give it a shot. We ordered the blackened shrimp tacos and garlic butter scallop tacos, served with chips and mango salsa, and both were incredible. We're from Southern California and have had our fair share of seafood tacos -- these were some of the best! The chowder had great flavor and the mocha iced coffee hit the spot too. Great sized beer too. We were rushing to make our shuttle, and they got everything out quickly enough for us to enjoy our meal and still make it on time. Skip the long crab lines and tourist prices and head to Berth 4 instead. Great food, fair prices, indoor and outdoor seating. Foodie approved and highly recommend!

The menu had a few overwhelming choices. I landed on a fish sandwich, a fish taco, and seafood chowder - I could not finish everything. All of the food was really good, but the halibut sandwich stood out. The fish was tasty and had just the right amount of batter. The staff were very friendly and the food did not take long. The only thing I will call out is the place is pretty pricey -- but I'm not surprised since it is a touristy area. Overall - I liked the place.
