    Nice rainbow trout caught on a family trip with Jason's Guide Service!

    Princess Lodge is the best place to sit on the deck and have a cocktail after a great day on the water with Jason's Guide Service

    a deck with chairs and a table

    This review is only for the restaurant. Stopped in here on the way back from Seward for lunch. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating with a nice deck area that has great views of the river below. I had the steak frites, which was good but not amazing. Service was fine and about what you would expect price-wise. They have a small but varied menu and cocktails.

    First, I'm Loving the really cute cabins! Dinner is at the Rod & Reel and had the scallops, so tasty! Just ordered the Bourbon Pecan Pie and can't wait to relax in the picturesque place.

    Great food! They were very accommodating to our large group of 10. The Alaskan salmon chowder was my favorite thing on the menu. Blackened halibut tacos had a kick to them and were very good. Steak and fries were good but we didn't love the gravy over the top. Great overall experience.

    Great time here, we are here two nights in a row. Make sure to eat at Rod & Reel not the dinner like place or the bar menu (which is much more limited). It was an older crowd (60's and 70's) BUT the food was up to date and very good. Loved this place.

    Great spot for a meal or drink. Had breakfast here and the Salmon scramble was one of the best I've had ( as it should be: it is Alaska and on the Kenai river). Prices were fairly reasonable for Alaska and the views of the river can't be beat.

    Another jewel out here! The food was to go back for and the service was even better. The restaurant was clean and warm on this rainy day.

    We stopped in today on the way back from Homer. We knew they had been up for sale for some time,…read moreand our server confirmed it was now under new management. The menu was different but I was happy to see they still had the chicken wrap on there. It went downhill from then. I asked for a Gold Medal Chicken Wrap, with crispy chicken (ranch was not an option, previously it was my go-to choice) you could have hot wings sauces, or honey BBQ - and this is my bad, I initially thought that it said honey mustard, so I said honey mustard. It came with a choice of tater tots onion rings or fries. I chose tater tots, but changed my mind to fries. Husband just ordered a piece of carrot cake. I was very disappointed with this wrap, not just in comparison to the wrap that used to be available, but just as a wrap being offered by a restaurant in general. The honey bbq sauce (I had asked for some on the side, to dip it into) was red. And I couldn't taste any BBQ smokiness. It was very tomatoey. I queried about my honey-mustard error, and she showed me the menu, and that mistake was definitely on me. I asked if she had some ranch I could use as a dip, and was brought some. So anyway, the wrap - loosely wrapped and quite floppy, and warm, as though it had been grilled or broiled, which rendered the lettuce leaf and tomato slice warm, limp and floppy. The previous wrap from Sunrise, and most other wraps in restaurants where I've had them, will serve an unwarmed tortilla with raw crunchy vegetables. The Sunrise previously did so - lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, shredded cheese, julienned carrots and crispy chicken in a cool creamy ranch dressing, it was a tightly wrapped, crunchy delight, and out of this world. I recommended it to anyone passing that way. The best thing I have to say about this one, is that there was plenty of chicken and it was tender. There was too much of the honey bbq sauce in it though, and the chicken wasn't crispy anymore, the breading had gone very soggy. It was a disappointment. As were the tater tots, when I had requested fries. The server was pleasant enough, and I tipped her well, but I wasn't happy with the food at all. Won't be returning anytime soon

    Im not one to complain too much on the road but this was a huge disappointment. My clam chowder was…read morefrom a can and the huge chunks of potatoes were probably from breakfast home fries and now also floating in my little bowl of soup. This establishment needs to regroup and decide on a decent quality of food. Fry food just doesn't make it for everybody.

    We were excited to try this place. It's located inside of a brewery who handles all the beverage…read moresales. Blue Yeti makes/sells the food - but inside same location. Everything is setup well and is situated in a great location! Unfortunately, service was awful! We ordered quickly and paid our tab up front ($60 for two chicken sandwiches and a basket of fries - including voluntary 18% tip, but not full-service dining). They gave us a pager and we found seats. Over the next 30 minutes we saw everyone getting food but us. I finally asked the status (politely) and got a seemingly annoyed response. I was told our order was next in line. I waited another 10 minutes and saw 3 more people served (who ordered way after us). I returned to check again and got a deep sigh and rolling eyes (mind you, it's been over 40 minutes at this point). They checked with their cook and he hadn't even started it. We were headed to airport and needed to get going, so when I pressed for an ETA he grumbled it'd be 5 minutes at most. It took 11 more minutes, which put our total wait at 51 minutes from time of order. We were never offered a discount, refund, or even an apology - VERY disappointing!!! The food was okay - but not worth that wait or frustration. We definitely won't be returning.

We had Roman as our server twice during our stay, and he was incredible--super friendly, funny, attentive, and made every meal so enjoyable.

Of course, the owners, Derrick and Janine, are some of the kindest, most genuine people you'll meet. Their warmth and hospitality shine through in every part of the experience. This is such a family-friendly place filled with happiness, laughter, and positive energy. It's a beautiful place to relax, make memories, and enjoy amazing food with people who genuinely care.

I was really disappointed in the food though - I got chips and salsa because I wasn't that hungry. The chips didn't come with any dipping sauce (for 7 bucks, it seems like it should) - that was charged separately, for an additional 3 bucks. Okay fine --- I had a craving so was willing to pay it... but then it arrived - 15 chips and the tiniest dressing-sized container of salsa... for $10?! Just nuts. The chips are supposedly "house made," but lacked any flavor (needed more seasoning/salt). Just wanted others to avoid my mistake - get something else because this isn't even half an appetizer.
