Was it worth the hyped? Was it worth it for the price? Those were the questions that I have coming…read moreto Tracy's. After watching many videos about this place, the hype is real. Just like everyone else, we came here after the cruise docked, we were amount the first one to get off the ship and were able to get here right the way without much wait. As we sitting down for our food the line grew much longer. There is also a second location that has less wait. We ordered the Red King Crab that's feeds 6-8 people, if you like crab it will feed like 4 lol, the crab tasted sweet and fresh. Also bisque tasted amazing. But this place is expensive, we paid almost $800 for it. Is it worth it? I will say if you are the first time in Alaska you should try it. Will I do it again? Yes if we have the budget to, but I will ordered the small amount and other things. We have a large group that is why is so much more expensive. I have a great experience at this restaurant, the service from the staff is excellent and they really know what they are doing. If you have the budget to come here, try it, it is once in a lifetime experience.

Been there yesterday , I am not sure about all the hype …read more We had red king ,dungeon crabs, crab cakes, bisque and some sort of garlicky sweet bread, Steamed crabs - ok nothing special , Crab cakes- deep fried with average dipping sauce , Bisque- no taste at all . I had better tasing everything elsewhere . Dipping butter did not taste like real butter . Those crab cakes probably come frozen in giant plastic bag with some mediocre sauce. All in all not impressed and bit disappointed. Garlic sweet bread was awesome .

Surprisingly, there aren't many places in Juneau where u can get fresh fish (that isn't fried). But…read moreThe Hangar impressed- they have a huge menu of traditional fare, so easy to find something for everyone. We got the "First Mate Plate" @ $33.99 (combo of fresh halibut & salmon), and (2) Halibut Tacos @ $26.99 + substituted the rice & beans for a cup of chowder:$4.50. This was so good, we came back the 2nd night and got the same thing! We were a party of 2 - 1st night had reservations and got seated right away; 2nd night walked in and got seated after a 5-minute wait. I think it's the larger parties that have to deal with the long wait or we were just lucky. Call in for reservations regardless. Noisy & busy but good food & good service.

After years of searching, I have found the best onion rings and calamari, right here in Juneau…read more It's a huge plate of crispy calamari with tartar and cocktail sauce. A lot of places have shrunk their calamari serving size down and serve it with an aioli that isn't always great. The basket of onion rings were crisp and hot with the right texture. I know it's frozen but it's the old fashioned onion rings that many places have changed the breading or undercooked or overcooked. Employees are very nice here. Our server was so nice. She checked on us a few times and refilled our drinks. We also had the one pound Alaskan king crab legs. It was just the way I remembered having it when restaurants used to serve Alaskan king crab legs. They're super fat meaty long legs. It was warmed up and served with lemon and butter. It was just enough for two of us. It probably would not have fed my son. He is a big eater and he would have ordered a steak. If I was hungry or had a crab craving, it might not have been enough for just me. We've also been over eating on a cruise ship for 6 days. We shared the apple crisp ala mode for dessert. It was not crisp but it did have some crumbs thrown on top like a cobbler. It was in a warm sauce and topped with ice cream. It's a cute place with a wharf view. The tables are not on top of each other. They gave us plenty of napkins and a bib too. If I lived in the area, I would be back every month for the calamari & onion rings, and yes the crab legs. The Diet Coke was perfect too, just enough syrup and carbonation. I would definitely come back if I was in the area.

The second location of Tracy's King Crab Shack is the place to be, and is not as crowded as the…read morefirst location at the center of town. You do have to walk about 15 minutes, but the dining room by the water really is the best spot. As we head to the tented dining room, a bald eagle swoops across the sky and lands on a post in the pier. While this is regarded as the best king crab in Alaska, eating king crab in Juneau is actually insanely expensive. Well if you have come all this way, when in Rome? You can order the king crab legs per leg or in a combo that also includes 4 mini crab cakes, a cup of crab bisque, and rolls. If you have a group, get a bucket of crab legs. They offer both red king crabs and golden king crabs. Go with the red and don't bother with the golden. The red king crabs have more meat and have a sweeter flavor. (Also, if you bring cash, you can avoid the 3% credit card fee.) We get a couple combos including crab chowder, crab cakes, drinks, and red king crab legs, plus legs for the rest of the group. They give you a crab cracking tool. There are a couple prongs on top for holding the top of the shell in place and a sharp edge for ripping the shell open from the bottom. Watch out for the sharp pointy spikes of the shell, so tread carefully. You sort of rock the cracker up and down in a straight line lengthwise until the entire cylinder of crab is free. There are three main pieces. The biggest leg segment has the sweetest and firmest crab meat. The smaller leg segment is more tender and even juicier. The body segment has a big bundle of flaky flesh. I can't remember if I've ever had a red king crab leg all to myself, so this is definitely the most and best king crab I've ever had.

We went to their location not at the pier thinking it would be less crowded, which it was but the line is still about 2 people deep, but they move you through ordering quickly. You grab a spot at the picnic table and someone brings you the bucket you ordered. The crab was so delicious and a great size, loaded with meat. The shells were easy to get through with their little tool (I called it the can opener) which you use to split the shells. We had a great time and the crab was amazing!

I went just for the fish and chips. They had options of cod, halibut, and salmon. I opted for the cod, but was told halibut was better. I'm glad they recommended it because it was so good. The coleslaw was too spicy for me. They do have malt vinegar at the table. The dish comes with tartar sauce that could've used a little bit more lemon. I ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. It was a little too warm. My waiter was very friendly and service was quick.

While we were quick to get off the boat - the line built even quicker. Once inside, you'll find a floor full of sawdust and a bunch of tables squeezed in to accommodate everyone. Fear not, you won't be squished. There is a good food selection for adults and kids alike. Along with the food - which was surprisingly good - they have some great drinks. I was a fan of their root beer. Red Dog Saloon also has live music. During our visit - the singer was a mix of comical and rated R. It was funny, but had my son giggle here and there. You have a ton of options in the immediate area. I was happy with this choice.

Definitely recommend stopping here if you're in Juneau!
