It was dark inside and not at all an environment I wanted to spend any time in, let alone my family. I ordered the halibut, which was average; it came with fries that were above average but not great. My wife got a burger, which was good (it also came with fries). I wouldn't eat here again just because of the environment. But if you don't mind that or can get food (particularly a burger) to go, then it's not a bad place. I'll say this - the do have a good selection of maybe 20-25 beers, which is more than I expected. Oh, and one last thing: they don't take credit cards - cash only.

I had a vodka martini and the vodka was so smooth and mild flavored, no harsh alcohol taste at all! It's fun to watch the bar tender shake up your cocktail. When weather permits, sitting outside is really lovely. This place is a bit more polished than many places in Fairbanks. The interior is warm and cozy, perfect escape on a cold winter day. Highly recommended! We will be back!!!

When I was a little girl, my parents didn't read me the typical princess fairytale bedtime stories…read more- I was a Sourdough; an Alaskan. Poems and ballads of Robert Service were spun to life as I was nestled into a swirl of downy rest. 'The Cremation of Sam McGee' was a favorite... a tale of sled dogs and friendships only the Yukon could build. But the story I always wanted to hear was 'The Shooting of Dan McGrew'... a cold blooded murder, a dusty piano, and a Lady that's known as Lou. The setting: The Malemute Saloon. Most childhood bedtime stories are set in fictional places with fictional characters. The Malemute Saloon was not only a real place, but a place that I knew and loved. My father, the bartender; my mother, the honky-tonk piano player. This place is legit. Sawdust floor, swinging doors, bar stools worn with years. The memories (now 20 years old) still fresh as new fallen snow. Huskies howling at the Northern Lights and the crunch of peanut shells under mud-caked boots. I couldn't think of a place more suited to raise a child. And, mark my words, the best custard you'll ever eat.

When we arrived, we found out that you'd need a reservation to dine in the main dining hall, so we ended up going to the Saloon side where we had to find our own seats. We sat near the pool table, and the chairs were super unstable. The staff were fine but clearly seemed busy and understaffed. It took a long time for them to bring us water and take our order. I tried flagging the waitress 2-3 times when she was passing by and felt very ignored especially as I've made eye contact with her a few times. We ended up ordering the fried seafood combo and the seafood chowder, and it ended up taking at least 20min to come out (even the soup). The dishes were all very salty and definitely needed a lot of water to go with the food. Overall, definitely not a place to go before a flight since you might not be able to get in and out very quickly, and the food was really just alright for the price. Perhaps the main dining room experience would be better but I still wouldn't recommend it given the food quality and service.
