    Excellent service, excellent bar, excellent server. I can't say anymore about it. If you look…read morearound the restaurant, you see a lot of diners wearing commercial fishing clothes, like I used to do as one of them for about six years. I know that's a great sign indicating the best that you possibly can if those folks come here for dinner. Service was impeccable, no wait and prompt delivery of our drinks than our meal my wife's pasta dish was also very excellent. We took leftovers home and enjoyed them twice!. The scallops were the best meal I had in Alaska this time after 16 days of traveling. I'd be really surprised if you went wrong at this venue, and I recommend it with all my heart and will do so to my best friends!

    I wanted to wait a while before I wrote this review. It was a bit cold in the building, would have…read morebeen nice to have a small fire. I went to the restaurant for Mother's Day . I ordered a pasta with white sauce and rock fish on top. My dinner came, the pasta was super spicy to the point where I could barely eat it. I asked my friend if his food was ok. He said it tasted a little weird. Asked me to taste my fish. My piece of fish was about 2 oz. and looked like it was an end piece or had freezer burn and they cut it off before cooking and serving. I tasted the fish, over seasoned and tasted like the freezer. I stopped eating that! That dish was $30. Dessert, usually don't- this time I ordered a Milton chocolate lava cake w/ vanilla ice cream. It was served frozen ( really!). $12 I got up and went to find our waiter. Came back and gave me another one, I can say if they didn't have a microwave they would be lost. Spent over $125. Won't go back anytime soon. I know Homer, has very good cooks. Y'all need to do better.

    WOW! Halibut fish and chips were amazing!!! Halibut is hard to cook, but this was incredible! For a…read moredeep fried fish, it was moist and succulent. A generous portion of fries were served as well. Wife had the scallops with Cole slaw. She shared one and that too was amazing! It wasn't dry, and it wasn't "raw." Cooked to perfection. Prior to that, we had the clam chowder. That was really good as well! Smokey flavored with a hint of spice . This was different compared to other clam chowders we ate. Also, every single spoonful had clam(s) on it. Very generous with their clams. Service was great! Just getting seated by the hostess took a while. But worth the wait. View was awesome, too!!!

    Heard a local shop owner recommend so headed over. Based on prices and descriptions expected to…read morehave our special fish meal in Homer. Wait was over 35 minutes when told 20-25 but all good as they have a 'waiting room'and the lady looking after people was obviously trying to do everything. The smoked salmon dip was amazing...it deserved to be in a proper dish rather than a plastic pot! Clam chowder was very tasty. Salad with entree was just leaves and croutons and 1 piece of tomato. Make an effort! Our entrees unfortunately came out cool. Baked halibut was very tasty when reheated. Seafood sampler was dry and very small. For over 50 bucks I was expecting to be wowed. It seems they need more staff and a little attention to detail and it would justify the prices. We so wanted a special experience and were left a litle disappointed. Here's hoping they invest a little more attention in the experience and make it what it should be.
