We stopped in for dinner for our last night in Alaska. Honestly, I was super disappointed. We…read morestarted with an order of Cajun fries for the table, but there was no Cajun seasoning! It was just salt and pepper. Then our meals arrived and my plate was covered in chips. Like, completely covered! I asked for another plate that wasn't covered in chipped plastic ... and was handed another plastic plate that had lots of chips in it. I then specifically asked for a ceramic dish (like my husband had received). The employee walked away without a word, so I wasn't sure what was going to happen. A few minutes later she did return with a ceramic dish. The whole situation just left a bad taste in my mouth. I did enjoy all the memorabilia and open windows. While there I also noticed how uneven dishes were coming out. One customer ordered just a few minutes after our table did, yet he received his food when we were walking out!

Anyway, we visited on a Thursday evening after witnessing the line at the place across the street. Comfortable, relaxed greeting. Easy, friendly service. Well lit and wide open kitchen.

Garlic seafood noodle - very greasy and seems to be a lot of soy sauce?! Reminding me of pseudo Chinese takeout joints Not from Chinatown's metropolitan areas..but from the suburbs. Positive: seafood was good and garlicky. King Crab bag was even saltier with the lemon pepper flavoring...and again way too greasy --- too much oil left over from the bowl after poured. For $80 (per lb...when asked my server for market price and advised was the best price) got Almost 3 full crab legs!!! Waaaaaaay Expensive for what one gets! I feel thats the price i may pay for in New York City...! Positive: crab meat quality was good. Service: Professional Ambiance: Modern Bottom line: Definelty not worth the hype for food that is meh... and $$$$$. As a foodie, I've dined from low to high end places...never had i experienced high levels of sodium and greasiness from a restaurant of this caliber.

BL: definitely swing by and give it a try! Waffle fries for the win!…read more Had the (fried) spicy chicken combo (fries + can soda) for $13! (that's a steal compared to fast food!) It would've been a 5 star if the chicken was more crispy. I did get there 30 mins before closing (they said not too late to order) so not sure if that affected anything but food was hot, just not as crispy crunchy as I expected. A liquid sauce is added to make it spicy. The waffle fries were really crispy and the hand cut fries were a bit more soft but both were good, preference for waffle though. Mom & pop feel - order inside but there's no sit down area inside so either eat in your car, take it home or there are 2 benches on the lawn if you don't mind the company of the state bird.

I had a hazy IPA here during Fur Rondy and it tasted candy-sweet, oxidized, and had a chemically-bite to it. It is one of the worst beers I've ever had. It tasted old and stale when it should've tasted bright and fresh. I do not know how they can serve it to folks with a straight face, it's that bad.

There are just some days when I don't feel like making my own smoked salmon dip and those are the days I stop into this cute little place, that being said I really dig their smoked salmon dip. They also have an excellent selection of "tinned fish" if that's your thing (it's totally mine). All kinds of neat sauces and seasonings as well as a cold case where they carry a variety of their own cured meats. I also swing in here when I'm looking for a gift for someone that I don't know what to get, I'll find some cool candy or such. The staff is always super friendly and ready to assist (and give free tasty samples) from their cold case. Also a bonus for me, located in my favorite part of town Spenard!! *pro tip* Their salmon and sausage products are also sold across the state in grocery stores and even in Costco!!

The main cafe has Alaskan decor of fish,, animals and many photos of locals with wildlife. Booths and tables in main cafe with at least one separate party room. The waitress was friendly, efficient and prompt. We all ordered different breakfast from a skillet to Chicken Fried Steak. I took pictures of each. Mine was a classic breakfast with reindeer sausage, two eggs, home fries and sour dough toast. The home fries were premade diced frozen potatoes golden brown and firm. The toast was lightly toasted with butter and flavored nicely. The sausage and eggs over easy were prepared correctly and good. The chicken fried steak my son had was huge and he indicated very good. The other two said their breakfasts were great. Overall this was a very good breakfast and we will return. It is good for families and groups.
