Really good thing that they open early. Jimmy wanted his Fish and Chips before 10 am after our cruise was on dock. Walking around and see they open already with nice clean look. So we went in. Services were great as staffs are so friendly. Food is in the higher price range for me. Fish and Chips in the picture is $28. However, it's understandable as it is tourist area. So we are happy to pay.

Visiting Ketchikan for the day and had been told about this location for lunch. They were not busy so we stopped in. The staff was very nice as was our server. I had the fish and chips and my wife had the fried chicken sandwich. The couple with us shared the Seaman's Feast. My fish and chips were good. The chicken sandwich was ok but the patty was of the same consistency as a Tyson patty. The Seaman's Feast was tasty but not really worth the $249 price tag. I did have an Alaskan Amber beer which was cold and refreshing. The highlight was the Moose Droppings which are the mini churro balls with vanilla ice cream. These were delicious! Overall, our visit was average.

2 Orders Of King Crab Legs

We dinned here in the middle of an 11 day cruise that my in-laws took us on, and at the end of the trip when asked what was one of the most memorable parts of the trip I said "lunch here." This was my first experience with King Crab, and it was unforgettable. One leg practically took up the half the table! The meat was incredibly fresh and delicious, perfect on its own or dipped in the provided drawn butter. Delights Beyond the Crab: Everything we ordered was fantastic. The creamy salmon chowder was divine, and the side of corn deserves a special shoutout. It was so flavorful, I just couldn't get enough. (Maybe Alaskan corn is just inherently better?) A Minor Hiccup, Quickly Resolved: The only downside was the beer tasting I ordered. Unfortunately, all the beers were lukewarm, which wasn't ideal for someone who prefers their beer icy cold. However, to their credit, when I mentioned this to our server, they promptly brought me a frosted glass, which helped improve the temperature. A Must-Try in Ketchikan! Apparently, this is the newest crab shack in Ketchikan, but based on my experience, it's also the most delicious. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area!

Fish and chips (originally has three pieces of halibut and more fries but I was hungry.)

The fish and chips are fresh and amazing. The salmon burger is delightful. Service is outstanding and friendly!

The food was delicious! Salmon chowder was excellent. Go early, items run out so plan to stop here first!

Alaskan crab leg... yummmm!

Food portions were tiny. Mediocre food at best. Very small claw. We came in a big group and everyone was disappointed. Would not return.

First greeted by the hostess to seat us. Place was full and very nice and clean. Casual atmosphere…read moreand you were able to hear each other's voices. We both enjoyed the halibut fish and chips which were amazing! Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Ketchikan Alaska!

I ordered a king crab leg, crab cake, and chowder combo…read more Three must haves for a true Alaskan trip. The crab was ok, honestly tasted like the much much cheaper snow crab to me, wasn't worth the cost but still part of the Alaskan experience. The crab cake was pretty small, good but small. The chowder was pretty thick and gravy like from chowders I've had. The food was good, nothing worth going back for, but good for the experience. This is where we go from a 3-4 star review to a 1-2 star review. I'm being nice. When the check came they added a 20 percent auto gratuity. I usually do 20% but when it's a single combo plate and the majority of the plate is one thawed crab leg.... Come on , really!!! Do an auto 15% maybe 18% with the option of adding more. That's the standard. What got me was a 4% service fee. I asked what it was for and the employee told me ," we don't get that, I guess it's for the kitchen staff or the owner, I don't really know". Why am I paying a service fee for .... Well nothing! (Crab legs are about $100 each which is the average price ) so $4 per crab leg goes to the evil greedy owner. So $4x 8 legs on a crab = about $32 per crab just because . Tax... expected and the law. But a credit card fee.... Even for debit (against the law). Not looking so good for the owner. So to sum it up Food was good, nothing to celebrate about. I actually can't complain about the service , it was good. But the extra fees are where the ship sinks. Stop taking advantage of tourists and your restaurant won't be empty, and it was very empty when I was there. Should have seen it as a red flag . Do better!!!
