The Fat Mermaid Reviews
On a rainy night we both had the Red Salmon basket and it was delicious. The portion size was good, the food was great!! The service was also quick and efficient. Would highly recommend!!
We had the harbor pizza and the fried halibut fish and chips. Everything was wonderful. The pizza really impressed. The crust is not a real thin crust, it’s not a thick crust, it’s like a thick crust with a thin crust crispness on the bottom. Loads of toppings. Lots of cheese. The staff is friendly and efficient.
Great fish and chips, and the waitress was really good as well.
Highly recommend the Fat Mermaid when visiting Valdez.

The Fat Mermaid is a highly recommended restaurant in Valdez known for its fresh seafood dishes. The atmosphere is lively with live music, creating a rustic, bistro-like feel. The menu offers delicious options like king crab legs with garlic butter dipping sauce, calamari, halibut, and Rockfish. The Halibut Basket has been praised as tasty, with large portions that can satisfy a hearty appetite. Sides include hot and fresh fries, which many say are amazing. The restaurant also has a kids' menu and a chicken wrap, though some mention it resembles a chicken salad in a wrap. Customers have enjoyed the friendly service and have noted that the staff goes above and beyond. The decor is lovely but could use some cleaning and a fresh coat of paint. For dessert, the lava cake with ice cream remains a popular choice, though some feel it could use more chocolate sauce. Overall, The Fat Mermaid is a great spot for a special occasion or a casual meal, offering tasty food and a cozy, fun atmosphere that makes it worth visiting if in Valdez.
