The food at The Alibi really is the best in town! It doesn't matter what brings you in: the staff is friendly, welcoming, quick, and knowledgeable; the menu is fulfilling and reasonably-priced; and the vibe is exactly what we all need in our lives. read more

We were here in April 2025. We are from SC and were visiting our son who is stationed at JBER Air Force Base (Anchorage). My husband had the Peanut Butter & Jelly wings. It sounds gross but my husband is always up for trying new things. He LOVED them!!! This is a great little town and Alibi's is an awesome place to eat. If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely be back. Thanks Homer and Alibi for an awesome visit. read more

Yes, I have been back to visit my dearly beloved "best fries in Alaska" and I can confirm that they still retain the number one spot. This place was so packed tonight, because it's the height of the tourist season (we couldn't get parked for a good 10 minutes) and so the place was HEAVING and packed to the rafters. Even so, we were seated immediately, and the fancy water carafe brought to us. Obviously I think most of the people in here are tourists. Most don't look Alaskan, if you know what I mean. I order the sublime Parm Fry Stack, that I've been dreaming about for 7 months, and he got, oh who cares what he got, I don't remember. He should write his own reviews. Despite the jam-packed dining room, it was not overly noisy, and you could hear your conversation. I had an unfortunate experience at a cafe recently, where I encountered one of those people who love the sound of their own voice, instead of chowing down on some good food. Fortunately there were none of those type in here, and so I got to appreciate my Parm Fry Stack in peace. Our server seemed surprised that I only wanted the Parm Fry Stack, and not a proper entree, and we wouldn't be sharing them between us, along with our main meal. No! Potatoes can be a main too. Well. You know the last time I had them, I was impressed. It was a sizable portion. This time, it was an absolutely enormous portion. A DAUNTING portion. Even I was dubious that I could manage it. But they were as epically delicious as the first time with no difference in flavour at all, which I am supremely grateful for. I don't give out awards such as Number 1 fry in Alaska lightly, but this humongous beast has earned its place, and retained it with consistent quality. Absolutely beautiful! read more

Finished a light dinner just before the 9 pm close. Dining room is spacious with lots of large windows with a bay view. Tacos and enchiladas were quick and tasty. Americanized, but well executed. read more

Came here for dinner. Was a bit crowded but found seating right away. Ordered the halibut fish tacos and they were by far the best fish tacos I've ever had. Service was a bit to be desired. Our waitress seemed annoyed and was very short with us I felt when we asked a few questions about the menu. They had a small beer selection but a decent variety. We ended up coming once more before leaving town because the tacos were that good. Unfortunately we had another waitress that was fine but no one there gave you that warm friendly vibe. They seemed short tempered and overall just not friendly. read more

Stopped here for dinner with my fiancé. We did have to wait for a table but not long. They had a long list of wings so I went with the Baja Wings with a side of ranch. They were plump and juicy but I found the breading mix to be a bit spicy. The ladies next to us had ordered the spinach dip which looked delicious. The menu has a big variety of options and I'd love to try a burger or burrito on our next visit. read more

Great food. Great people working there. Can order online as well beforehand which is super handy.

we have had problems here before with the food and thought we would give it a second chance...nope not going here again ever!! Apparently they don't want you to be comfortable asked to be seated at a certain table because of the sun being in your eyes and the chairs at the smaller tables being uncomfortable and hard. She said no you can't... she said I will get in trouble if I seat you there. Wow happened to customer service not gonna get it here. What a ***ch! they must be able to pick and choose who they get to come here and it's one of those places that you don't know if your food is going to be good or not don't order the enchiladas yuck! read more

While vacationing in Homer we came to eat here twice. Didnt let us down either time The wings are amazing!!! The chef has these wings down to a science. Crisp, sauce was perfection. Service was fast and worked hard Literally, the chef is a hidden gem read more

First night in Homer and the Alibi was recommended by folks at the Salty Dawg... they we're right. Nice place, staff was great and he suggested the special.. I'm not usually a salmon fan, but these tacos were absolutely delicious! Some type of habanero marinade.. Definitely brought some heat, but still very tasty. I'd come back again! read more

Two words: halibut burrito. DUDE. That was so good. The burrito was a perfect portion, perfectly wrapped and all of the ingredients inside tasted fresh, amazing halibut as well! Would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting town looking to have a different spin on a halibut dinner. Be sure to ask for their house made hot sauce as well, it's seriously good. Overall, The Alibi provides great food, great service, and great drinks in a nice little space. Loved it! read more

Great local spot- a local recommended this as their favorite regular bar, so it was a must. Finding something to eat after 8:30 pm is difficult enough in Homer so knowing the Alibi is open later on Friday and Saturday nights with live music is awesome. It's definitely a neighborhood feel. Everyone knows everyone else and knows who the tourists are. Halibut cakes were the special and we asked about it, the bartender replied, "if there is a special up there you should order it." So we did. I was there for the peanut butter and jelly chicken wings! Period. The wings were crisp and tossed with just the right amount of sweetness. House made peanut butter and locally sourced jelly is spot on!! Local beer on tap just adds the niche of this neighborhood favorite. If you don't know or have a question every person there will have an opinion. read more

Came here for dinner on the recommendation from a local. Gotta say loved the food, shrimp tacos to die for, our waitpersons was fantastic. When in Homer you just might need an Alibi! read more

Loved the service and the food. Arrived about 5:30 mid week and they still had tables available. Virtually no wait time, seated and placed our drink orders. Pretty decent selection of beers, 6-8 different wines, multiple signature cocktails and a great selection of liquor. Drinks came out quickly, saw the size of the appetizers at the next table over (yea we were lurking) and they were huge. Fast forward to dinner again our table was surprisingly silent the salads were said to be the best, the chicken wings were a little less sweet than expected but non were left on the plate and the Baja burger (huge) a melody of flavor perfectly balanced Baja sauce with guacamole, crunchy bacon, shredded lettuce, tomato, onion. OUTSTANDING read more

Great food with great prices. Looks and feels like a dive bar. Wasn't super hungry so the waitress recommended the wings and it definitely filled me up. Would absolutely go again for the pile of fries!! read more

Alibi was recommended to us as a "must try" and we can definitely see why! The food is fantastic! They have a great menu with a lot of different choices that all sounded delish! We ended up ordering halibut tacos, the Baja wings, and the Parm Fry fry stack. Each of them turned out go be as good as they sounded! The halibut was cooked and seasoned perfectly, the wings were crispy and super tender, and the fry stack had the perfect balance of cheese and sauce with great flavor! The service was friendly and attentive and the overall setting was very casual. This place gets packed and we can definitely see why! Highly recommend a visit to Alibi for really, really great food! read more

Food was and has been typically good, not great. However, the waitress asked us to leave about 15 minutes after we finished dinner because there was a small line of people. Some of us still have not finished our drinks at that point. read more

Great atmosphere and food. Good menu selection and service was super fast. We had a great time and would come again!

Excellent tacos, wings & burritos! Friendly customer service. They were able to accommodate my gluten issue. The restaurant offers lovely views & value for money. Highly recommend! read more

Had their caesar salad, excellent as well as their honey habanero wings, again excellent. Serve was very good and friendly.

It's hard tro even describe how much this place has changed in the last few years, for the better. This was a dive bar. Like, really a dive. Then it changed hands and was a dive bar that also had some decent sushi. Changed hands again and after a few years ... it's not a dive at all. The bar is still there but it is no longer the point, the food is. And the food is great. The owners really care about their customers and their staff, and the food they put out. Get the tacos. Get the poboy. Get the wings. It's all good. Have some local beers. read more

Went after reading reviews and having hardly any options here in Homer. Sat at the bar. My friend asked a few questions and the guy behind the bar was kind of curt with her. I tried to engage in conversation asking what the association was with the Chargers jersey. When he found out we were from Los Angeles he flipped us off and said fuck you. I was so shocked as this was totally uncalled for. Especially to a patron simply asking about the decor. Apparently San Diegans have an issue with Angeleans. News to me. Ordered a taco salad no guacamole, pick, or Baja sauce. He asked if I wanted if tossed together and I said yes. It came with a giant, wasteful mound of lettuce that I took off just to get to the meat. Only to find out the chips were covered in this enchilada type sauce. What I asked not to have. I took 2 bites and that was it. Yuck. Plus I hate dark chicken and that's mostly what it was. My friend ate it. Wouldn't go back. read more

Great find as we arrived in Homer. Friendly & quick service in a busy place. Awesome halibut tacos & salad.

Great locals spot in Homer. My favorite feature is the halibut Mexican food items. Vibe is super chill. Exterior is very unassuming. They serve food late too! Sleepy Homer seems to shutter its doors early, but not The Alibi. It may be your only option after 9pm! read more

Fantastic food with a wide variety of options. We loved the parm fries and baja chicken sando. read more

First and foremost, this place is a bar. However, the dining area is spacious and has a beautiful view of the Homer mountains and glaciers. When we got there around eight, a couple of off duty oilmen were at the bar. Cussing and loud macho talk could be heard from the bar into the dining area. Their speciality is typical sports bar food. The halibut fish tacos included a purple cabbage slaw, adding a colorful Homer spirit to the presentation. You will not be dissapointed by the creamy and decadent peanut butter cheesecake! Overall, this place is relatively cheaper, compared to the other dining options in Homer. If I had the option, I would have come here again for dinner. It could be a little more family friendly during dinner hours, but afterwords is fair game! You will love the prices and quality of food here! read more

This place has better food than you'd find at more expensive restaurants in town. The inside of the place feels a bit like a bar with a dining room added on, but the view from the room is nice, with lots of windows. The staff were very nice and fun. We got the halibut fish tacos at the recommendation of the waitress along with some nachos. Both were great. The owner (or manager) even gave us some pointers on how to cook the halibut we caught. The place has a great small town friendly feel to it. If you are looking for a good place to eat, check them out! read more

Definitely a sports bar. Heavy on bar--- However, Local hangout, good Alaskan people. The beer, the value pricing, the live music and the environs must've been amazing during those times of the day. I didn't go to drink or prowl; I visited for their famed halibut tacos. The fish was unbelievable fresh, kudos. But when you say tacos I think spice. I think the chef wanted to let the beauty of the fish stand out. I'd say they were good as is, but I would add a habanero pineapple chutney. The table ordered a Cesar lettuce wrap, the nacho plate (massive and typical bar food), chicken enchiladas (not very good), and a very large Asian salad. All of these dishes were good values for Homer Alaska, but none of them had the deeper refined finishes which comes from a culinary school. Well priced, Bar food. And that's their business so, they're honest. read more

Wow! When you first walk in you might be reminded of a college bar but don't be fooled- their food is amazing! We were told to get the halibut tacos, but far better are their chicken wings- especially the Kush wings. An all-time first for us - chicken wings slathered with chunky pesto and feta. Holy smokes- these wings will blow your mind. My mouth is watering just writing this review! read more

Top 5 best wings I've ever had in my life if not the best. Hours kinda suck but food is incredible.

Because of my amazing bar tender, Amber just became my favorite color!! Amber was so kind, welcoming, and hospitable for my first evening in Homer ever. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun local Homer bar with amazing food! read more

Wow! I've traveled the world and never have I experienced such disrespect! Yes the owner is a compulsive liar and a complete jerk! No one in our party said anything but sighed when he started cussing us out. And in pure defense, we defended ourselves and left. Also, the dog we had with us was a certified, licensed, trained service animal in a medical bag. Not a pet in a purse. Maybe his wife the waitress had a problem with this and so she called her husband over. Anyways if u have a problem with the service dog then you shouldn't be in business since my wife is protected by the ADA ACT and you could be sued! Also there's phtotos of the owner with dogs in the bar on their website.... Obviously hes lying again. Also, nobody went back to apologize! For what? This guy is seriously delusional! Travelers be weary and don't come here unless u want to be treated badly by some nobody. read more

I wanted to update because I finally tried the peanut butter and jelly wings . I got them with the spicy jelly . Don't even hesitate just order them ! So so so good !!! I want them right now ! (The bad thing is the Alibi is right down the street from me) read more

5 Stars for being excellent and being in Homer. Had the fish tacos. Being from California I've had a lot of fish tacos, so I can say with all honesty and enthusiasm that The Alibi rocks! Great beer selection too. read more

The good: Prices on the menu pretty cheap for Homer! The bad: $8 for a teensy bit of whiskey. The wings were the spiciest on the menu and I tasted 0 spiciness. There was a little girl bringing people food and doing cartwheels in the dance area, it was really weird because I'm not sure if little girls (around 10 probably) are supposed to be in bars. This being Homer nobody cared, she was some employee's kid. But yeah, the wings were disappointing cause of their lack of spiciness, the blue cheese dressing seemed like ranch with blue cheese crumbles tossed in, they were $13 for maybe 6-8? Should have ordered the burrito probably. The two servers there had the entire restaurant and seemed stressed out. I'll update if I try something else on the menu and enjoy myself! read more

Best wings ever! I like them plain, no sauce. Huge, crispy. Kind of a cool bar scene too. You can tell they like to eat, always yummy. They were only taking to-go orders but I had to stop by because they are literally my favorite wing place ever. read more

We chose this place because it was one of a few restaurants in town serving dinner after 9:30pm. It didn't look like much from the outside so our expectations were low, but we were pleasantly surprised - the food was excellent! We started with the eggrolls which were delicious - crispy on the outside and moist on the inside with tons of flavor. We shared the chicken nachos and two halibut tacos for dinner, which ended up being way too much food (the nachos are massive!) but also really tasty. The tacos had large, generous chunks of halibut, cabbage, pico de gallo and guacomole with a tangy sauce. I would absolutely order them again, especially at $5.50 per taco - a bargain in a tourist town! The toppings on the nachos were also generous and distributed in layers so you weren't left with a large pile of plain tortilla chips at the end - the way nachos should be made. The place was busy and may have been understaffed, but we still got our drinks and food quickly. The Alibi did not disappoint - definitely worth a stop when you're in Homer! read more
