The nice thing about eating here in Homer is that you know the seafood is fresh. Homer is home to…read morefishing boats and a number of seafood processing plants. There are several restaurants on this boardwalk and in the surrounding area. We spent all day halibut fishing and were looking for a bite to eat afterwards. Our guide gave us a few suggestions to choose from. I decided to check out Boardwalk Fish & Chips because of its casual relaxed atmosphere. They are know for their halibut fish and chips. They also have beautiful views of the Kachemak Bay from their dining area. We were able to spot some Orcas swimming by while we were eating. Majority of my group ordered the fish and chips. I got the Shrimp Basket with coleslaw. Boardwalk Fish & Chips is open seasonally. Their menu offers a number of seafood classics, burgers, soups and salads. There are several gifts shops and stores on the Boardwalk if you want to do some shopping before or after you eat. This was a nice place to stop in for a quick bite to eat.

Tried this place out on 7/14 there was a line out the door so i assumed it had to be good! Place…read morehad good amount of seating and was pretty clean. Staff was nice and helpful. We tried the cod and shrimp with chips price was a bit on high side wish it came with more chips. The chips were amazing crispy criss cut fries wow! But the cod fish was very good but the batter falls right off and is not seasoned very much. I didn't like that the shrimp were skewered on a stick. The shrimp was hard to pull off and when you go to pull a shrimp off all the batter falls off and the shrimp is unseasoned so it tastes like what you dip it in. The fish and shrimp were fresh and of good quality. Won't be heading back next visit to Homer.

Pulled Pork Baked Potato- 5/5 totally yummy. Good potato, pulled pork delicious. Hit it with a little salt. A little more sauce, maybe a thin version, in the side woulda been awesome. Ultimately, very good. Italian Sammy- 3/5 yummy but honestly a little plain. My wife and I really couldn't find the aoli at all, sooo it wouldn't benefited from that...or even a gob of mayo. Something to blend it all. It was like meat cheese and peppers on dry toast. ANYWAYS.....those individual components were tasty. Couple cans of soda too! We sat outside at the tables which were nice. We had the place to ourselves.

It's not fancy, but has its charm. Prices were reasonable, we shared a chicken avocado melt sandwich with upgrade onion rings. Very tasty. Also had an Alaskan IPA. But the best part, hands down, was the clam chowder! Lots of clams, vegetables, and potatoes. Not your usual cream sauce, potatoes and clams, but with so much more - flavorful and balanced. Advertised as "world-famous". I've had a lot and this one is probably the best chowder I've ever had! Don't miss it. (I recommended it to another fellow boater and they agreed that it was excellent!) Also "shout out" to our server Madison, who did a great job, and was very friendly. Thanks! Attached is a picture of the front of the restaurant with the owner who politely posed for a picture for the review when I asked.

Hands-down the best food we've had in Alaska; and maybe the best street tacos ever!…read more We have been living in Alaska for a couple of years now, and Swell Taco in Homer is officially our favorite spot. The location is beautiful, featuring a very cute outdoor setup right on the ocean with amazing views. Even though they were busy with a long line, the service was outstanding, kind, warm, and engaging. They were incredibly thorough, and our order came out exactly right. I also noticed that everything coming out to other tables looked consistently spot-on, with everyone around us loving their food. As someone who eats gluten-free, the fact that 80% of their menu is GF was phenomenal, and it actually tastes incredible! Their corn tortillas are genuinely the best I have had anywhere. Their flavor combinations are extremely well thought out and expertly executed. We tried the fried rockfish, the halibut cheek, and the Carne Asada. The fish-based tacos were lovely, as the texture was perfect. The flavor profile on the Carne Asada was actually my favorite of the three, but the meat itself was just a little too tough for my full appreciation. Still, the seasonings on all three tacos were absolute perfection. Do not skip the coconut limeade! It was such a treat: perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and very well done. Swell Taco is a must-visit in Homer. We will be dreaming about these tacos until our next trip!

Cruised down to Homer spit today. It's been at least 10+ yrs since the last time I was there…read more Some new things in town. But the spit pretty much looks the same. Ate some tacos at Swell Taco. Birria tacos were delish. Packed with meat. And the consume was warm and savory. Steak taco was a little tough. Generous portion of meat. Needed salt. The pickled onions gave it a nice tang. Coconut limeade was refreshing and yummy. The hibiscus agua fresca wasn't my cup of tea. Lacked flavor. Service was great, but our food took a while to come out. But I'm still happy we tried it.
