We had an early lunch. Excellent food and service. I had the crab legs(excellent)and fries, wished I had ordered the salmon chowder instead of the fries. Go for the double order of slaw- it’s amazing! Loved the music as well. A great change from the Cruise music.... BTW, they smoke their hamburgers. We unfortunately ate so early, they weren’t ready yet.....

We had an incredible experience at Olivia’s Alaskan Bistro! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service truly stood out. Kristen and Keelie were both attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Kaleigh at the bar was fantastic—super knowledgeable and mixed up some amazing drinks. Highly recommend this gem!

Living in Skagway I had to stop here to eat. Let me just say—their seafood pasta was one of the best dishes I have ever had in my life. Got the halibut on top and prawns, and it blew me away. 1000% would recommend it! The baked Alaska was amazing as well for dessert.

AMAZING! Great little hidden gem at the end of town. Christine was very friendly and a great waitress. The salmon chowder and carrot cake are a must!

Food is good but VERY rich and creamy. No low cream / low bread options except crab. Best restaraunt if you want something nostalgic and high end , in town.

Eat here on the Skagway port of call for Royal Caribbean. Really cute atmosphere and kind/attentive service. Halibut puff was a really unique and delicious entree. Super underrated spot!!!

Wow! Wow! Wow! Best meal this trip, even better than some upscale meals in Vancouver. Seafood linguini was perhaps tastiest pasta ever, Italy and elsewhere. Subtle smokey flavor was exceptional. Veggie flatbread with red vinaigrette and goat cheese was also superb! See you in August! PS - found the backpack exactly where we left it 6 blocks away. Love your sweet town!!
