Restaurants in Ketchikan

  1. A

    That One Place

    The owners of Bar Harbor Restaurant have turned the café at the New York Hotel into one of the best places for breakfast or lunch. Practically everything on the lunch menu is seafood related. Let's face it - if you're in Alaska long enough you'll eventually order halibut tacos. You might as well do it here, where the locals rave about them.

    Steamers at the Dock

    The view from this waterfront restaurant's 3rd-floor perch is wonderful if there's not a cruise ship docked in front of it, which is usually the case during the summer. The menu features many unusual seafood dishes - crab-stuffed oysters among them - while at the bar they pour an excellent selection of microbrews.

    Chico's

    From the minute you walk in you know this small downtown cantina serves good burritos and tacos by its colorful Mexican-themed interior. But when you open the menu you discover it also serves a decent pizza. Hey, they're just trying to make a living.

  4. Ocean View Restaurant

    Ketchikan's best Mexican restaurant offers 10 types of burritos, seven sizzling fajita dishes and, in that great Alaskan tradition, pasta and pizza. Come early and grab one of the three tables with an unobstructed view of the Narrows.

  6. Bar Harbor Restaurant

    A cozy place with a covered outdoor deck, between downtown and the ferry terminal. Yea, they serve seafood here - who doesn't in Southeast? - but their signature dish is Ketchikan's best prime rib.

    SharJo's Sunny Side Up

    A bright and funky eatery in a can't-miss yellow building. Inside three of the tables are lawn furniture complete with umbrellas. This is where you come for a milk shake and a salmon burger.

    Heen Kahidi Restaurant

    Generally regarded as Ketchikan's best dining experience, the West Coast Cape Fox Lodge restaurant offers hilltop dining with city views and a menu that is not dominated by seafood.

    Sushi Harbor

    Sushi Harbor. This Japanese restaurant bustles with locals, tourists and cruise-ship workers. Just a bowl of their udon noodles will fuel you all afternoon.

    Burger Queen

    Ketchikan's favorite shake-and-burger joint. They'll deliver your hamburger to the Arctic Bar across the street where you can be sipping a beer.

    Annabelle's

    This is a chowder house with a 1920s decor. When the cruise-ship passengers arrive, this place packs 'em in tighter than a tin of sardines.

    Good Fortune

    Head upstairs in Ketchikan's best Chinese restaurant to feast on double mushroom pork while watching the cruise-ship crowds on Creek St.

    Pioneer Café

    One of the few downtown restaurants that was around when the lumber mills were. Its clam chowder is the best in the city.
