  1. Ray's Waterfront

    Hands down, this is Seward's culinary high point, with attentive service, picture-postcard views and the finest seafood above water.

  2. A

    Duncan House Diner

    This busy downtown place fries up Homer's best bacon-and-eggs, which it serves until 14:00.

    reviewed

  3. B

    Homestead

    Considered the highest-end - and perhaps the most delicious - restaurant in Homer, with appetizers like Kachemak Bay oysters and mains such as Thai curry and Sonoran seafood stew. Though the waiters wear black ties, patrons can come as they are (hey, this is Homer, after all). Reservations are recommended.

  4. C

    Fat Olives

    Fat Olives In this chic and hyper-popular pizza joint/wine bar, you could gorge affordably on appetizers such as prosciutto-wrapped Alaska scallops, delicious mains like wood oven-roasted rack of lamb or a huge slice of pizza to go ($4).

  5. D

    Spit Sisters

    If you're after a feisty girl-power vibe, you've come to the right place. There's a great view overlooking the Small-Boat Harbor, and delicacies to enjoy - apricot scones, blackberry muffins, sticky buns - made by the revered Two Sisters Bakery in town.

  6. E

    Tidepool Café

    In a sunny space overlooking the harbor, this eclectic eatery serves great wraps, sandwiches and espressos, and has dinner offerings like wasabi halibut and sweet-chili salmon. Be prepared to queue up out the door.

    Captain Pattie's

    This oceanfront eatery has become a Spit institution by selling overpriced seafood to a constant stream of landlubbers. It claims its halibut is Alaska's best, but those in the know order crab.

  8. Le Barn Appetit

    In this unorthodox eatery off Exit Glacier Rd there's not really a fixed menu - except for crepes, which are so sinful that, as chef Yvon Van Driessche says, 'you must go to confession.'

    reviewed

  9. K-Bay Caffé

    Ask any local and they'll tell you: this is the best coffee in town, and well worth the inconvenient drive. It also has free Internet access (donations appreciated) on one computer.

    reviewed

  10. G

    Boardwalk

    Widely viewed as the best place on the Spit for halibut - tempura-battered, fried and served kabob-style. Notice, however, that fishermen, unlike the tourists, go for the burgers.

  12. H

    Cosmic Kitchen

    A hippie twist on the standard diner: on one hand, it has burgers and Budweiser; on the other, you can pay 50¢ extra to have bee pollen added to your mango smoothie.

    reviewed

  13. I

    Crab Pot

    All the locals will tell you: If it's crab you crave, nestle into the red-leather booths of this low-lit restaurant. Expect to pay top dollar for the 1lb of king crab.

    reviewed

  14. J

    Linwood Bar & Grill

    A dark harborfront saloon, which has plenty of cigarette smoke to go with your meal. It's also the one place in town which has an ATM. There are no banks in Seldovia.

    reviewed

  15. K

    Apollo

    A wildly popular and slightly overpriced restaurant with plenty of pasta-and-seafood dishes. It'll cook up your cleaned, filleted fish to order - at a charge.

    reviewed

  16. L

    Marina Restaurant

    With burnt coffee, smoking locals, good gossip, lots of Formica and excellent breakfasts, this place has all the hallmarks of a classic small-town diner.

    reviewed

  17. M

    Railway Cantina

    Near the small-boat harbor; offers unorthodox quesadillas, burritos and tacos. Try the 'black-n-blue' quesadilla, with blackened chicken and blue cheese.

    reviewed

  18. N

    Café Cups

    Has a wacky exterior (think Antoni Gaudí) and an equally fun, eclectic-yet-refined menu that includes excellent curries and hand-cut rib-eyes.

    reviewed

  19. O

    Fritz Creek General Store

    A ways from town, but locals say it's worth the drive for the veggie burritos. It also does pizza, tamales, hoagies (sandwiches) and espresso.

    reviewed

  20. P

    Christo's Palace

    Has a gorgeous dining room dominated by a 1950s Brunswick bar (featuring a great selection of beer on tap). The pizza and seafood get raves.

    reviewed

  21. Resurrection Roadhouse

    This local favorite is home to 'halibut tsunami,' Thai seafood cakes and the best nachos in town. It also has a vast range of on-tap brews.

  23. Q

    Yoly's Bistro

    The menu has a delicious blend of curries, seafood, and burgers, with a decent wine and beer selection. Listen to live music on weekends.

    reviewed

  24. Exit Glacier Salmon Bake

    Its motto - 'cheap beer and lousy food' - is wrong on the second count. Both tourists and locals adore this steak-and-seafood place.

    reviewed

  25. R

    China Grill

    The dinner buffet may seem overpriced, but the lunch buffet is a deal - especially if you dig (of all things) deviled eggs.

    reviewed

  26. S

    Salty Dawg Saloon

    Maybe the most-colorful bar on the Kenai Peninsula, the Salty Dawg is one of those places that's famous for being famous.

    reviewed

  27. T

    Sweet-n-Clean

    It serves quality burgers and fried fish on Styrofoam plates while you watch your clothes spin. It's got espressos, too.
