We were seated right away…read more(always a win), and the service was quick, friendly, and just really easy from start to finish. We started with the crab dip and it came out bubbling hot, like actually hot, with plenty of bread for dipping, which I feel like is rare and deserves recognition. Super solid appetizer choice. For mains, we ordered the Bacon Blue Burger and the Alpine Berry Burger. The Alpine Berry was supposed to have a spicy berry jam, and I'll be honest... there wasn't really any spice to it. BUT it was still really good, so no complaints there, just don't go in expecting heat. The space itself is great too, two levels, a bar upstairs, and a back patio that would be such a good spot in the summer. Overall, really good experience for a first visit and definitely somewhere I'd recommend checking out if you're in Seward.

Excellent taste amd perfect proportions. Had the Alpine steak sandwich and a cup of chowder.read more

THE BEST HALIBUT YOU WILL HAVE! We were doing a road trip from Anchorage and my friend and I are…read morefrom California so we only wanted to eat Salmon or Halibut in Alaska. We needed a late lunch as we did the whole scenic route. We saw someone's review that says the best halibut you'll have while in Anchorage... man this person was not lying! In hindsight, we are super sad that we didn't order one each. Their grilled in butter garlic halibut with jasmine rice was so basic, yet so flavorful, delicious, succulent, and cooked to perfection. I don't know how they do it, but after this every place in Anchorage we tried their halibut and nothing compared to this. I've tried recreating at home and failed. It's probably the garlic butter and fresh sautéed garlic on the top. So good. We also got their seafood chowder and side of sweet potato fries. Everything was superb. I really wish we would have known that this is the best halibut we found and should have ordered our own!

My daughter spotted a small seafood restaurant tucked into a corner, so we decided to give it a try. I completely forgot to take photos of the food, but I ordered the halibut--and honestly, it was probably the best halibut I've ever had. Everything we tried was delicious. I noticed a lot of people coming in specifically for the seafood chowder, so I'm guessing that must be amazing too. The employees were friendly, the restaurant was clean, and they even had outdoor seating.

I had hiked 9 miles that day and the salad was one of the first things to come out, even starving I barely touched it. Go eat the fish, don't spend a dime on anything else. This menu needs some help they can't decide if they are the local pub or an upscale eatery. Prices show upscale but quality of food outside of the halibut and oysters scream pub food. No cohesion in the menu to a theme as well.

Clam chowder had a lot more potatoes than clams. I saw an older photo of the ceviche that seemed to have more food. I guess they changed the portion since that previous reviews posted.

I absolutely loved the gluten-free coating on the halibut since I'm not a fan of tempura-style batter. The Tanner crab was amazing, and the fried pickles were also great, though the portion was huge (definitely too much for one person). Service was excellent both nights. The bartenders were really friendly, and the food came out quickly and smoothly. The interior is also super cute, kind of an old-school lounge vibe with lots of velvet. There's a neon sign that says "city where the fun shines," which adds to the fun atmosphere. Such a great dinner spot in Seward.

First, the place looks like1985 retired inside in a good way. The bar in lined in plush red fabric and the photos, decor and chairs all are retro to the max but what did the food taste like? So I ordered the smash burger and roasted mini Yukon gold potatoes with creme and bacon. The burger was kinda charred I guess but still good, the server never asked how I wanted it cooked so that was a HUGE minus, but it wasn't bad just not great, the flavor was good, the veggies were fresh, just not great! The potatoes were the star of the show! They were perfectly seasoned and the creme and bacon sauce was MONEY!! They literally melt in your mouth and were roasted perfectly without being mushy. The service was good, the vibe was super chill. The place is kinda pricey for what you get but that is everything in this little town. I will be back to try some other things eventually.
