    This place usually has a line out front. Passed by the first day and they could not accommodate a walk up so we made a reservation for the next night. We were seated pretty quickly. This place is an unexpected fun retro gem in a small town. Made me feel like I had stepped into Palm Springs 1965. So fun. Service was friendly and attentive. Food was fantastic. I highly recommend eating here.

    Amazing atmosphere, great staff, and delicious drinks and apps. I would definitely come here again.

    Rockfish with orzo

    This is a snazzy retro cocktail lounge with okay food. I ordered the rockfish which comes with orzo and it wasn't bad but it needed more sauce to better balance the flavors and dryness. The ambience is neat and had lots of figurines and liquor bottles lining the walls. Our server was very personable. The place gets busy so definitely make a reservation.

    Funky place for sure! They have Baby Bakers appetizers that could feed an army and is so delicious! Must have reservations but we got lucky and snagged a couple of bar seats.

    Passed by here on our first day in Seward. The vibe looked funky as Hell on the outside, which I kinda digged. Immediately wanted to go in and try it out, but it was packed. Which I honestly didn't consider since it was toward the end of the season. It just goes to show how good this place was that it was still loaded during this time of the year. Would definitely recommend getting reservations if you want to eat here. We were able to reserve dinner for the next night, and it didn't disappoint. Whatever image that brings up in your mind when you hear Flamingo Lounge, that is the atmosphere you are walking into. We got the Bucket of Butt and the Sourdough Bread Board as well as a couple of drinks. The drinks were top notch, and the Bucket of Butt was some of the best halibut I've ever had in my entire life. If I had one complaint, it's only that there wasn't enough butt in that bucket. If we ever come back to Seward, this is definitely the first place I'll eat at.

    Literally stumbled upon this place while exploring their downtown area. Would've eaten there then, but they were completely full so made reservations for the next night. So glad we did! Feels like you're stepping back in time, and I am here for that. Such a classic vibe, and the menu reflected that. Let me tell you - the Bucket of Butt is the way to go. These chunks of halibut were perfectly cooked and so freaking delicious. And their tartar sauce was just a bonus. Also enjoyed their soughdough bread board - good starter. Nice drink menu. Loved their Pink Pony Club Marg. It's definitely busy here, so it is a bit louder. Service was good. Make reservations. If you want to eat here, it's your best bet of getting a table. Overall, great dining experience. Highly recommend.

    "Sinatra Would've Ordered the Halibut" If Frank, Dean, and Sammy ever took a detour north to Seward, Alaska, The Flamingo Lounge is where they'd hang their fedoras. The place oozes mid-century cool -- like someone took a page out of the Sands Hotel playbook and dropped it right on the waterfront, only swapped the desert for glaciers and halibut. Step through the doors and you're instantly back in the golden era of jazz and martinis. The lighting is soft, the music croons, and the cocktails are mixed like they mean it -- none of this "just a splash" business. The bartender could pass for Sinatra's understudy, pouring an Old Fashioned that would make even the Chairman of the Board raise a glass. The seafood? Baby, it swings. The halibut was so fresh I half-expected it to start humming "Fly Me to the Moon." The scallops came out golden and buttery, the crab legs practically winked at me, and every bite felt like a curtain call for Alaska's finest flavors. The crowd was a perfect mix of locals, travelers, and a few folks who looked like they might've stepped right out of a Rat Pack photo shoot -- all smiles, no pretension. You get the sense that if Dean Martin were alive, he'd be crooning by the bar with a martini in one hand and a shrimp cocktail in the other. Pro tip: Dress up a little -- not because you have to, but because it feels right. Order a martini, look out at the harbor, and pretend you've just finished a show at the Sands. The Flamingo Lounge isn't just a restaurant; it's a time machine with better seafood. As Sinatra might've said: it's the kind of joint where the world still spins on vinyl.

    Ah yes, The Flamingo Lounge. This has been on my must visit for a few years and this summer was finally my opportunity to try it! I thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance and decor of the restaurant but I am disappointed to say that the menu wasn't as exciting as I had hoped. I ordered the Tanner crab and it was good but the mushrooms on the side were under seasoned and the stuffed dates were burned. Service could have been better as well. Perhaps next time will hit the mark.

    Bucket of Butt and Green apple Tree-chipper slaw

    I grabbed a seat at the busy bar and had a nice cocktail, and then a local porter. The bartender was prompt and friendly. After the buzz snuck in, I got the 6-piece "bucket of butt" since I don't have any friends to share the 10-piece with. Perfect texture and crispiness, with tartar and lemon. GF is an extra bonus. The slaw had a wonderful flavor, but it clearly was the prep cook's first time holding a knife. They just went after that poor cabbage like it had betrayed an ancient bloodline. Overall, incredible experience, but I was very disappointed that there were no flamingos anywhere to be found. I told the taxi driver that I was at "The Lounge" because of this oversight. I walked home. 5/5

    Whiskey bottle with an elephant stopper. White Negroni with blueberry ice cube and perfectly cooked rockfish.

    Love the ambiance, and the food is good,, but not amazing. The cocktails are amazing. Best thing on the menu is the bucket of butt. We had the rockfish and it was cooked perfectly, but was unseasoned. If not for the salty fries, I would have had to add additional seasoning. All in all, make time to have a dinner there, but be sure to make reservations as it's a very popular place.

    Their one and only dessert. Brownie al a mode.

    It was nice atmosphere very very busy probably one of the coolest places in Seaward. Must try the crab legs and the halibut chowder! Pass on the hummus plate

    DISABLED / MOBILITY ISSUE TRAVELERS BEWARE!…read more This hotel does not care about you! I am on a 100 day tour around Alaska and Canada and have travelled through the south eastern islands / marine highway and Haines Junction / Tok by this point with no issue. 5 nights booking. Stated in booking I had mobility issues. Did not check until I arrived then they downgraded me to a room on the second floor via elevator. Would they come get me in an emergency? Would not have chosen this hotel if I couldn't get the advertised room. The given room only had a single handrail in the bathroom a distance from the toilet or sink. The shower was not step-free but mostly step-free. There was no rubber mat. The breakfast was very difficult to use with a walker and there was no assistance. On 3 occasions non disabled guests parked or blocked the disabled spots, raised with front desk, did nothing. On two of those occasions the lots were also full and I had to walk with my walker a significant distance in the rain. They had company vehicles blocking spots preventing me entering and others leaving and when asked if they could move temporarily I was told no. On third occurrence of disabled use/blocking informed them if I see it again I will be contacting police. Supervisor told me he was unaware of these issues which means they must have never raised or discussed them among themselves. He got sarcastic with me and told me I should call the police right now. I said it's your hotel I'm doing you a courtesy by telling you and not calling the police but I will the next time I see it. I left the hotel at this point as I simply don't know if I can park there or trust they would rescue me. DO NOT STAY HERE Attached are some photos showing these issues

She was an absolute delight, was attentive but not intrusive, helpful, so friendly--and the kind of friendly that seemed sincere, and not just part of the job. She heard my husband say it was his birthday and later on slipped me a note asking what dessert he would like and coordinated a birthday surprise without my even asking. She deserves a giant bonus or raise for sure, and her customer care was so incredible that if I lived in Seward I would attempt to lure her away to work for me!! The food was also good; the nicely salted baked potato skins, the great seasonings on the seafood, the prime rib was wonderful. My husband said the salmon was cooked really well and he loved the baked beans. For the price, the captains platter seemed a little scant - but it was cooked well.

And fried prawns that were crispy and juicy inside bery tasty it came with 2 home made sauces a cocktail sauce that tastes like fresh horseradish was used in it and a standard tarter sauce. It came with two sides we tried baked potato loaded with cheese and bacon and rice with butter both were cooked fo perfection. The cornbread was ok compared to rest of food. Last but not least was this massive chocolate cake it was amazing wish it came with milk, but was so big we took home half! If I'm back in Seward i will definitely come back!
