Ate here with my family during vacation. Nice staff but the food was lacking...severely. Would not recommend or return.

Food was good, but overpriced. They were out of 4 items we tried to order. One being a milkshake. Waiter told us they were out of milk. Later, the table next to us had 2 milkshakes! Waitstaff only offered to get refills once, right after the food came. Also, it was a long wait for food & it was only 1/2 full. read more

The food was very good once I received it. It was a long time waiting. They were out of many items on the menu (we were told by a waiter) but 30 minutes later saw someone eating what I was told they were out of. It is also very expensive so heads up! read more

I went here after eating out at several other local places around Seward, so I decided to try this place out. I ordered the signature dish, the Chattermark Burger. The burger was okay, but the service was one of the most rude people I have dealt with, considering I was taking out 4 people, we all ordered the same dish. So we gave them good service when it was slow. The waiter was letting our food sit on the serving counter for 5 minutes because he was eating... I had to politely let him know that MY food was ready, and then he took his time after smirking at me fish then making me reach over to take the dishes that he should have been putting down on the table. I still said thank you but honestly there was nothing to be thankful for. Normally I don't give places a review but I was very unhappy on how my friends and I were treated. So I felt I needed to let others know, money does not come as easily these days and you don't deserve to have it wasted on ghastly poor service. I would say the food was okay but with such an awful after taste of service. I give this Food a 3 star rating. Thank you very much for reading, and I hope I've made your choices easier to make! read more

We went here on the 4th of July for lunch during the Mount Marathon. We were a bit early so it was empty when we sat down but it filled up quickly. We ordered and split the Crab Bisque and Fish and Chips. We also each had a beer. The prices seemed pretty fair for the area keeping in mind that Alaska is just expensive in general. Our bill total with tip was around $30. The bisque was okay but honestly a little bland. The fish and chips were a surprise because it is halibut AND salmon. I had never had salmon prepared in such a fashion. The fish was good. We also asked for several of their dipping sauces to try, a garlic avocado (basically garlic-y guacamole), a BBQ based sauce, and a pesto tarter sauce. The sauces were good but not exceptional. The fries were really oily and made us both somewhat ill. The staff and the atmosphere were nice, I have no complaints concerning them. They also had restrooms that were decent. Overall, it is not the worst place but I think there are better places to go in Seward. read more

Very good food, but earned 3-stars because both me and my daughter left feeling hungry. For the price, the portions were small and nothing came with meal (bread, salad, etc.). It looks like they are shooting for "upscale", but having a note in front that says "sit anywhere" doesn't get there. Lastly, the heat is another thing you don't want to skimp on....no one wants to eat upscale with their coat on. read more

I (and my familly) had a lovely dinner here made even better by a friendly waitress named Diana. The two fish tacos (lunch menu--three for dinner) consisted of perfectly cooked halibut and were tasty. Without second thought, I'd have them again. The dessert, hot chocolate souffle over vanilla, proved to be the perfect closer. Good food, pleasant surroundings and atmosphere, nice service equaled a great meal. read more

I really enjoyed the fish and chips felt like they were the best in town due to the spicy sauce served with them!

I can't really complain about this place, it was good, but nothing to write home about. My favorite thing was the Angry Orchard hard cider on tap, yum! I got a chicken burger and my boyfriend got a southwest type burger with an egg on it. We also got the sweet potato fries, but personally I like the ones I make at home better. They have a couple different sauces that you can choose from, I found the southwest aoli that came with my boyfriend's burger to be delicious, far more tastey than the avocado garlic sauce that came with mine. The interior is nice and comfortable, service is okay, but could stand for some improvement, our server wasn't very friendly. This is a decent place to eat, and if you aren't expecting to be blown away, you won't be disappointed. We just wanted a burger and beer for lunch, and this place fit the bill. I'd say we'd go again possibly next time we are in Seward, but it's not a must go place by any means. read more

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was wonderful! The only complaint I have was the portion sizes were very small but the big flavors made up for it! We will definitely eat here again! read more

Had breakfast here. 2 stars generous. Try the Smoke Shack instead but that place is way too tiny...

The atmosphere was good. The restaurant was clean. Food came out pretty fast. But the wasn't that many people in the restaurant. Service and refills were slow and staff stood at bar talking. I guess the worse thing I would have to say was that the food was ok but not great. Portions were small and looked like something you would cook at home. Nothing fancy just plane and not very appetizing. Probably will never go again. read more

Chattermark was a surprise success for me and my wife as we hunted around for reasonably priced, tasty food for lunch in Seward one rainy afternoon. We stumbled across a fantastic lunch, a super nice server, and a restaurant that we will be visiting again the next time we are in Seward! For under $50, my wife and I had two very filling meals and two craft beers. Not bad! My burger was absolutely the best burger I've had in Alaska, hands down. Maybe best burger I've had anywhere, outside of my father-in-law's house. It was seasoned really, really well, and all of the toppings were as fresh as you could hope for in Alaska. Not too greasy, and large enough to justify the ~$16 price tag, it was perfect. The fries were nice, though nothing that stands out in memory. My wife had a halibut and salmon fish-and-chips plate that was delicious. Lightly fried, golden brown chunks of fresh fish served up with tasty sweet potato fries really hit the spot, and for a very reasonable ~$18 or so. Two Alaskan craft brews (out of a somewhat limited draft selection of around 4 beers) complimented the meal nicely. There were other delicious looking menu choices (reindeer and caribou stew!), but they will have to wait until next time. I feel confident they are delicious, as the attention to detail and craft behind the meals we got were so high! Definitely add the Chattermark to your food plans when in Seward, either for lunch or dinner. It's right downtown in a fun location, and they have ample seating, so I doubt you'd face a wait. Top notch! read more

Came in on a Tuesday for the $10 burger and beer after a long hike. Was this a great choice or were we just starving? I'll never know, but the Blue Moon was cold and really hit the spot. The burger was cooked just right, on a fresh bun, with fresh lettuce, tomato and onion. The sweet potato fries were crispy with just the right amount of salt. The service was great. Bathrooms were clean. Can't find one thing to complain about. If we didn't live so far away we'd go there after every hike. read more

Visited this restaurant for an early dinner around 5 so they were not busy; nice decor. Ordered the fish & chips --- fried halibut. Halibut crispy, but may be a little over fried as not moist. I could get better fries from any fast food place; seemed like re-fried fries from lunch... chewy and dry. Sweet potato fries were okay though. read more

What an amazing place. The seating was awesome with all the wood carvings and the menu while not huge had some great variety. The food was unbelievable I've never had a better meal in the state of Alaska. They had a wonderful section of local brewers on Tao which is always nice and a great variety if wine available by glass or bottle! It was fast friendly great music great service a pure gem in Seward we will return every year we come down here!!!! read more

Go to this restaurant if you are in Seward. Reindeer caribou stew is rich and tasty. Good selection of Alaskan beer on draft. Yummy sweet potato fries. Fresh Alaskan seafood well prepared. read more

Wonderful food and atmosphere! Tuesday evenings they have a $15 big burger and a beer which is a great deal. You get a choice of any burger on the menu and fries,sweet potato fries, or salad and a beer. It's a good deal not just for the price but because it tastes so good. read more

Don't be fooled. Only 3 table worth of people. Server could not keep. Ordered a burger and it tasted like it was reheated in a microwave. Server messed up ordering our appetizer so never got it. There are plenty other restaurants in this area. Go there!!!! read more

Amazing food, great service, wonderful ambience! The apple maple salad is a delight! They have redone the interior and it is much more inviting. The manager/bartender was friendly and we'll informed of the menu items. My husband loved the fish tacos. We will definitely be back soon! read more

We went here for a birthday dinner after reading the reviews, which were very misleading. The fries were undercooked and limp, the halibut nuggets were mushy. Very disappointing. We should have known it was going to be disappointing because the restaurant was empty. The waiter raved about all the dishes, that should have been our first clue. Never again. read more

Wife had fish and chips. I had a hamburger. The hamburger was quite greasy. We also had clam chowder which was pretty good. Table was sticky, needed cleaning. I also went to the bathroom and noticed the floor was very sticky. Waitress was pleasant at our table, but got my hamburger order wrong. Instead of replacing the order, one of the staff suggested I just scrape the sauce off the bun and replace it with my salad dressing! I smiled and said "thank you". Not going to make a scene over a hamburger. I'm sure there are alot of nice restaurants in Sewart. I don't think this is one of them. read more

If you are visiting Seward, hit this place for lunch. It is in the old section of downtown, only a couple of blocks from the Alaska SeaLife Center. If you don't see a space on the street, park in the lot by the old train station next to the SeaLife Center and walk north on 4th Ave. Parking is free in this area of town -- up in the other part, near the Marina, the city extracts $10 for you to park, whether for an hour or all day. The Chattermark is new, clean, and with excellent, rather creative food. Lots of room and friendly staff. Nice wood furniture, comfortable chairs. Washrooms are clean. The place had only one other party in it when we came in shortly after noon on June 27, but filled up a bit more before we left. Although we didn't have kids in our party, it looked to be very kid-friendly, as described in Judy W's previous review. Definitely a high point in this part of town! read more

Visited this restaurant on a Wednesday evening about 7:30 in part because the lighter crowd made us feel that we would get personal attention for multiple allergy concerns (egg, gluten, nuts). We picked wisely! The food was great. The atmosphere was family friendly. The staff was welcoming and accomodating. Two adults and six children left full and happy. I highly recommend Chattermark! read more

This place is good enough, but not great. When I visited, it was pretty dead which made me a bit nervous. But the place is very clean, the ambiance is nice, and the food comes out pretty quickly. The dishes on the menu read better than the execution out of the kitchen, but it is good enough for the price. A nice little place to eat in Seward. read more

I don't normally write reviews, but our meal was delicious and I'd like to see this place stay around. The service was good, the one server was very attentive, however, they probably could've used an extra hand as it started to fill up later in the evening. The chef helped out when he could by bringing menus and serving food to tables. He definitely went above and beyond to make sure everyone was helped in a timely manner. The food was delicious! Started with the salmon rillettes, which was different than we expected, but still delicious. My husband ordered off the lunch menu (served all day) and got the salmon burger and sweet potato fries, and he absolutely loved it. He's still talking about this burger. The salmon filet was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The burger is served with a southwest pesto sauce which complemented the salmon very nicely. I had the king crab dinner, which you can't go wrong with. Everything was reasonably priced and the food and service were both great, which is why I'm giving this restaurant 5 stars. If you haven't been here yet, it's definitely worth trying, you won't be disappointed! read more
