Seating is old-school booths, perfect for conversing. Ernie's offers everything that is expected and loved in a dive bar.

This was one of the local bars we were taken to on our Alaskan cruise excursion…read more This bar is a fisherman's bar and you can tell by the vibes that it really does give off that fisherman's vibe. There are plenty of windows that brings that outside natural light so this is not your dark and gloomy dive bar. There are also tons of pictures of many of the Fishermen who have came to visit this bar. There is a cool tradition here that if you ring the big bell that they have you have to buy everyone in that drink a bar. Cool enough one of the people in our tour rang the bell and it was exciting to see. You are then given a rain check token that you can save for your next visit or use right there and then. We used one and kept one as a souvenir. Also there is a liquor store connected to the bar where I'm sure locals come to stock up on their alcohol and tobacco. Overall it was a nice spot that really does feel like this is a locals only/fisherman's bar.

If I had to do it over again I would have ordered the standard sausage and eggs. My wife had the $15 mushroom omelette with toast and shredded potatoes on the side.

We were a party of 2 and there were several tables open, but it took us about 15 minutes to actually get sat down. When we did get the table, it was not cleaned off and ready for us. We ordered the wings with 2 sauces- on the side, but it came covered in one and one on the side. The sandwich I ordered came with a salad, but instead I got fries. The food was ok. The ambience was fine. So it all depends on your preference!!

A table next to us went and purchased his beer at the bar and came back to the table before she did. Our food came out cool- not cold, not hot. I got fish and chips, son got chicken sandwich and fries, husband got salmon blt. Salad with 2 oz grilled chicken- $34. Tab was 200$ total. My son with Celiac has a stomach ache now. We told them he had celiac. Absolutely not worth it. (We went to a local dive bar up the street for fast cheap beer after.). We are coming back to Sitka in 3 weeks and will not be patronizing this place.

My husband chose this place, and it turned out to be a cute, quirky little spot. We really wanted…read moreto try the fish in Sitka, so we thought this would be the perfect place. The views were absolutely beautiful, and the restaurant is located up a flight of stairs. We were seated quickly and didn't have to wait too long for service. They had quite a selection of beers and brews, and I loved the vintage style bar. We ordered the calamari as an appetizer, and unfortunately, we felt the portion size was too much. I think the price could be lowered in exchange for a smaller serving because we felt bad wasting so much food. My fish arrived warm and was served with hand-cut fries. The batter was a little different from anything we've tried before. It was good, but I think there may have been a bit too much pepper added. It wasn't bad, just a different flavor profile, so keep that in mind. Overall, if you're looking for a place with beautiful views, we would recommend it. I ultimately decided on a 4 star rating rather than a 3 star rating because the scenery really added to our day in Sitka.

Highly recommended are the mussels - the spicy sauce and accompanying grilled bread are fabulous; the Beast burger made with Wagyu, elk, and bison with a gorgonzola spread (the fries are even excellent); and the deep-fried doughnut with ice cream is an occasional indulgence completely worth the damage, easily shared. The cocktails are made with care and our service has been excellent and attentive. Since prices will be high here no matter where you go, if you're downtown, stop in here.
