We pulled into Seward after driving there from Anchorage, We were in town before settling in at our RV Campgrounds. We decided to try this place based on the location and availability of tables when we walked in. Our waitress, Marissa was great. We started off with cheese curds, not our fave and dirty fries, everyone loved. My Boo got the king crab, which was more like crab clusters and really enjoyed it. My gal pal and I shared the fried Halibut with fries and the large house salad. This could have been better. There was soooo much dressing on the salad that it took away from all the goodness of the greens, walnuts and cranberries. The fried Halibut was dry, felt like it was overcooked. Our...
Oh my, this is day 9 of our Alaskan adventure and I'm sad to say that we had our worse meal of out trip. Firstly, the restaurant is right on the dock so it's poised for great views of the Seward waterfront and the surrounding mountains. We were in on the late side so we managed to get window front seating. Our hostess and server was good and my Alaskan brew was good but that's where the goodness ends. We ordered the enteee crabcakes, pesto cream salmon, and smoked salmon rice bowl. Firstly, the veg was green beans and it liked like they came out of a can. In fact, I'm pretty sure they did because we all had them on our plates and they looked identical. Secondly, two of us had rice as our sta...
A bit of a disappointment. The good. The only reason it gets 2 stars was Alex. She did a great job while being short staffed. Friendly and polite, very good service. The cocktails were good. The bad. We ordered 2 halibut fish and sticks and 1 crab stuffed halibut. The halibut chunks were delicious and nicely cooked. You get 3 tiny pieces for $37. I mean tiny tiny, like maybe 3 ozs of fish. The fries were undercooked, completely squishy and gross. The stuffed halibut came with green beans and basmati rice. Just like the menu said. No room for added spice or sauce or flavor. Literally plain rice and plain green beans. Zero seasoning of any kind. At the end of the day, $150 for awful food. Comp...
Chinooks is a pretty nice to stop in town if you're looking for a casual place with friends to relax for a bit and enjoy a breathtaking view. Service was very mid, at least for a table of two adults with a baby in a corner. But I at least liked that they gave us a corner seating which worked with my stroller and came with a perfect view of the harbor on a beautiful summer day. The food is maybe hit or miss. If you like a crisp crab cake this is not it. These were definitely on the mush side and leaving sauce to be desired. The fish and chips were very pleasant. I'd come here again if I had folks from out of town to show off this wonderful view to but not so much be back for the culinary elem...

I hate to give a bad review…..but this restaurant truly deserves it. The best thing about our dinner was the bartender that took care of us. He was busting his butt! Honestly, the food is really terrible! There were of us, we all had...something different and it was all bad! Prices are totally crazy too! We totally don’t mind paying when the food is good but this food does not warrant the price tag! You can go right next door to Rays and have a very good meal for the same price. We had just eaten at Rays the night before and in retrospect we should’ve just gone back there instead of taking a chance on chinooks!
This place was recommended by our hotel. It was definitely not anything special. I ordered the Pesto Halibut and it was not cooked enough. The server offered to throw back on the grill but ended up cooking me a new one, which was over cooked... the crab stuffed halibut was good. Sides (rice and green beans) needed some sort of extra seasoning... overall wish we would have tried a different restaurant while visiting Seward.
We ate at Chinooks the other night. We started with the clam chowder which had good flavor but had a hard time finding the clam meat! For the main course I ordered the crab stuffed halibut and my husband had the salmon. Both of our fish was good but was served with dry white rice and frozen green beans with no seasoning. For the price we paid I figured it would have been a little nicer!
The service was excellent!!! Loved the halibut and rockfish fish chips. You have to order the Crab Stuffed Halibut dish. Will definitely return to this local restaurant!

Delicious fish and chips, crispy, dry batter. No greasy beer batter here. Good drinks. Best tartar sauce ever. Eat here!
Food was overpriced. Poor value for money. They did have nice waterfront views. Friendly and attentive servers.
