12 Best Seafood Restaurants in Sitka

“A once in a lifetime experience. Not a five star restaurant at all but would most certainly go back again. The food alone makes it worthwhile. No menu, just whatever he caught that morning is what you get. We had yellow eye and halibut. And samples of cod. There are no sides, just fish on a kebab stick. No plates, no utensils. There are a total of five chairs in the place, and one very knowledgeable fisherman that gave is a history lesson of Sitka. $20 per serving.“

“Nice restaurant however avoid waiter Nate! Very rude and can ruin your evening . He did for our family visit. ?“

“I tried a bowl of the Salmon Bisque and had to order a second one for my husband to keep him from eating all of mine it was so delicious. It was creamy and rich with lots of salmon chunks, mushroom and leeks. For dessert I had a chewy peanut butter cookie and my husband had the chocolate gelato. Best food ever you could tell they were made with quality ingredients. I highly recommend the Salmon Wagon.“

“The best meal I’ve ever eaten. The flavors were perfectly balanced but each flavor stood on its own in every dish. The king salmon was worthy of out loud exclamation! I love fine dining, and now this will be the measuring stick Of all other fine dining experiences. I also love the laid back atmosphere. The service was excellent.“

“Love this place and I recommend it to everyone I talk to“

“Kevin, the manager, was very helpful and kind. The room was space and very comfortable and clean. The restaurant was right there and it was open for breakfast and dinner. It closed at 9 am and it was very quiet and easy to sleep at night. The shuttle to airport was right on time at 5 am and it was easy and convenient.“

“Terrific experience. Everything was prepared perfectly. The BEST place for crab and the fish tacos were wonderful. Not to mention the Sourdough corn fritters. Staff, particularly Corey was so attentive. We will definitely go back!“

“We have gone to a few places in town while we have been here. We keep coming back to the Nugget because it is consistently good. The service is very good also. The Coast Guard Wrap is my husband’s favorite. Prime Rib night was awesome. Just good food at a good price.“

“When in Sitka, AK, go for king crab and seafood at Sitka's Burger and Crab Shack! We had Alaska King Crab Legs and Alaskan Halibut Sandwich & Fries.
We were visiting Sitka for the day from a cruise port and we were trying to find a restaurant for fresh king crab and seafood. We stumbled here after walking around discovering Sitka downtown.

It did take a bit longer for our food to be ready but knowing two cruise ships docked they were so busy with lines the door. There is also minimal tables to sit but good time when our food arrived, we found a table outside to devour our food. It was a sunny and it was nice to sit outside taking in the wonderful weather we were lucky to have in September 2024 in Alaska.

If you are ever in Sitka, must try out their fresh seafood!“
