    King Salmon as advertised on Tanners website

    November 9, 2025 It has taken me some time to write this review of Tanner's Alaskan Seafood. I ordered Salmon Roe, Alaskan Venison Sausage, Alaskan Smoked Halibut, Smoked Jalapeno Salmon Spread, Alaskan Smoked King Salmon Traditional Flavor, King Salmon Bellies, and Alaskan Sockeye Salmon Premium Portions. I will describe the products in the order we tried them. We tried the first five items the first week we received the package. The last two we tried yesterday and today. After trying the first five, I lost interest in trying more but yesterday I thought I would try brining the roe. 1. Smoked Halibut. Awful. They overly brined the halibut and did not smoke the fish. I took one bit and spit it out. No smoke flavor. It was mushy and salty beyond belief. Opened another package same problem. All went in the trash. 2. Smoked King Salmon. Very little smoked flavor or salmon flavor. There are several things that can cause that. 3. Smoked salmon spread. Impossible to tell exactly what it was. Did not taste like salmon and had just the slightest smoke flavor. Went in the trash. 4. Sockeye Portions. Average quality. We fried those okay. 5. Venison sausage. Tasted like the cheap sausage you can find in any convenience store or truck stop. It was impossible to tell what it was by taste. Went in the trash. 6. Salmon roe. Opened the package and the eggs were very small and all were very mushy. I brined the roe but it was impossible to remove the eggs from the skein (the membrane that holds the eggs) because it was all mush. Went in the trash. I still have one bag of roe left. 7. King Salmon Bellies. All bellies had fins attached. It is a common and accepted practice to remove the fin when the fish is filleted. There was a total of 9 pieces in the last package. The pieces I received were small. Below is a picture of pieces in the last package we had left which had not been fried. I put a tape beside the pieces to show how much meat we actually received. You can fry the bellies and remove the fin easier after they are fried. They tasted great. My point with the salmon bellies is that what I received is nothing as Tanner advertises in their picture below of salmon bellies (on their website). I spent around $500 for the product. I lived in Alaska for 18 years. I went all over the state fishing and many times fished various places on the Kenai Peninsula, which is where Tanner Seafood is located. I had a 206 on floats used it a great deal fishing in the 12 years I owned it. I bought seafood from other business in Alaska. I know what good quality seafood is and this from Tanners was the worst I have experienced from any Seafood business in Alaska. I suppose the risk of buying online and receiving what I received is more common these days because what recourse does anyone have except write a review; especially when you live 2000 miles from the seller. Notice on their website, they have positive reviews but go Yelp and you will read many more negative reviews.

    Tanner's Whole King Salmon Fillet

    I continue to try to post an honest review on Tannersfish.com, but it keeps getting deleted. Seems they are only keeping 5-star reviews on that web site. I ordered whole King Salmon fillets from Tanners, to be shipped to my home. The fillets were plenty big and thick, but the salmon tasted bland, not like fresh King Salmon that I have cooked my entire life. The flesh was very lean, and did not contain the lines of marbled fat shown in the picture on their web site (and like all other quality King Salmon I have purchased from other sources). The fillets I received were just big, lean Salmon, with little fat and almost no taste. If I'm going to spend this much, I'd rather buy the highly marbled King Salmon that always cooks up moist and full of flavor.

    Fantastic! Ordered crab, halibut and king collars last time, all were excellent! Received my order this week, the tuna and king collars did not disappoint.

    Betty Jean and the crew at Tanner's are amazing! I've used Tanner's for several years and they are consistently top notch and always providing exceptional service! Thanks Betty Jean and I look forward to seeing you on my next AK trip!

    Coho Salmon with Creamed carrots, peas and turnips.  Delicious!

    For 3 years, I have been ordering my seafood from the Tanner family. Every product has been fresh and impeccably packaged. Delivered on time, every time. This retired Minnesota farmer appreciates this fantastic Alaskan goodness!

    If you're fishing in Alaska with plans to ship home you will more than likely already be aware that…read moreit is EXPENSIVE to do so. That being said, Anchor Point Seafood does a very good job. All the boxes my friend and I shipped home using this business arrived in a timely manner and tracking was available. They also offer a limited selection of seafood related food items for sale. This is NOT a restaurant...it is a seafood shipping facility (as least it was when I visited Alaska in summer 2007). I do not recall if they sold seafood shipping boxes because we bought our own from hardware stores in Homer and Soldotna.

    I have a group of 8 that goes on a long range trip each July out of Homer. We were looking for…read morebetter solutions for processing our fish. We had done the checked boxes, and found it very much of a hassle. Nothing like 8 guys trying to lug 3 ea boxes of fish into Anchorage airport, with all of our other gear. Not only that, the cost of checked baggage has gone through the roof! After being referred to Paul, I gave him a ring, and he insured me he had a good solution. I had hear good things about him and his company, so I went for it! We came into Homer spit marina in the 70ft. Venturess, with 1600 # of Halibut, Ling cod, and rock fish. Paul had 3 trucks and 8 guys waiting. They took our fish 20min up the road and the next day it was professionally bagged in 5mil bags, 1#ea. perfect sized, separated and ready to ship. Now, we did not want to check it as I said before. Paul had it delivered to Alaska Air Cargo 2 days after we got back to the LA area. He arrange all of the details, it was hassle free! We got a tracking #, and the flight arrived at LAX, we drove one of our trucks to Alaska Cargo, picked it up, and we we amazed at how easy it was! In 2010, you can bet we will be using Paul and Anchor Point Seafood to take the hassle out of our annual long range Alaska fishing Adventure! Don't forget to ask him about the cookies... yummmm!!

Big chunks of REAL big shrimp- not some ground up mess that you're not sure what you are actually eating here- absolutely delicious and I highly recommend buying them. Great company too and my box always arrives with my seafood still frozen and fresh!

    We have been ordering from Great Alaska Seafood for years and they have never disappointed ! My tip…read moreis to always call them. When I see a great deal via email, I always call them to place an order. They always tell me about additional discounts they have on other seafood. This time I saw a great deal for 8 whole filets of the Black Cod fish. So I called and they told me about specials. I got an additional pound of king salmon, halibut, Coon shrimp (a native type!) and a few jars of salmon caviar eggs! I already had the caviar eggs with my breakfast and simply wow. So fresh. I steamed the black cod whole filet with some ginger and wow wow wow. Hubby could not get enough of it! Highly recommend if you need to buy fresh seafood delivered straight to your door. Recommend to watch for email specials and call directly ! My absolute favorite! Could not recommend more highly!
