Taco pizza, Cheese Pizza

Excellent pizza, best in Ketchikan (just like this sign says). Recommended for pizza and taco lovers. Friendly staff.

Supposedly "Delicious" Fajitas. They were not. Also: ever seen broccoli, zucchini, orange slices and cauliflower on fajitas? Me neither.

I worked in food service for a long time, it takes a LOT for me to complain, never mind write a review. This was one of the worst meals I've ever had. For starters, the table was swarmed with fruit flies. Service was extremely slow despite us being the only table in the restaurant. The "chips and dip" came out as store bought tortilla chips with melted shredded cheese on top, lettuce, grey guacamole, and black olives. We ordered beef and shrimp fajitas. The beef was not fajita, but some kind of stir fry meat, the shrimp were incredibly overcooked, and there was an assortment of random vegetables with the fajitas like cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, and orange slices for some reason?? The marinade tasted of pre-packaged generic Asian food that you might get from the frozen section of the grocery store. The tortillas were listed as flour on the menu but what came out was corn. All of this was topped with more grey guacamole. There's no antibacterial soap in the bathroom, just a giant bottle of dish soap. We finally asked for the check when I found a hair in my shrimp and a fruit fly landed in my beer. We sent back full plates and no one asked if anything was wrong. $90 tab and we had to stop at McDonald's on the way home because everything at Chico's was inedible.

As a tourist, finding a dinner spot in Ketchikan is not exactly easy. Once the cruise ships depart, the town seems to pretty much shutdown. So one rainy night, I found myself wandering in here for some food as it appeared open. Everyone inside knew each other and was having conversations with each other over the booths. And a few of them would it's get up and go into the employee only area and just help themselves to whatever. No one greeted me when I walked in. I just took a seat and waited for awhile until the one server came over. Not exactly welcoming. It's a really small place and kind cute and quaint. It's got a nice ambiance to it sans the unwelcoming aspect. Soda comes in cans, no refills. They have some beer and wine too. Menu has plenty of options - variety of Mexican dishes and pizza and pasta. Quite the odd mix. Chips and salsa are complimentary. Neither the chips nor the salsa were good. I settled on a beef tostada as I wasn't hungry enough for a full meal. It's was...barely edible. In fact, it was mostly inedible. The beans were so gross and nothing tastes fresh. If I hadn't been starving, I'd have barely stomached the few bites that I did. So while the one server was perfectly nice and it's a cute place, the food was well below average. Perhaps other menu items are the better way to go?

Good food, friendly staff. Decent pricing. Chips are a little boring (seemed to be prepackaged rather than made in house), but everything else was really great! Pizza + tacos = winning combination! :)

Don't blink or you'll miss it.  This little place is a few blocks up from the Main Street through town.

If this is the best pizza in town this town doesn't have any good pizza. Their guacamole is made with mayonnaise too. Just avoid...

Enchilada plate I had was very good, not spicy but a handy bottle of Tapatio can solve that for you.

Although I haven't tried a Taco Time location other than this one, our family is always pleased…read morewith the service and food here! We appreciate the special Ketchikan specific additions of Filipino food and chicken wings, making the menu choices significantly larger than I would assume it is at other franchise locations in Washington or beyond. Considering there isn't many other fast food options in town, it isn't bad! A little on the spendier side but it is Rural Alaska to be fair. My family enjoys when we treat ourselves to a meal here and it's usually busy during weekday lunch. We wish hours were a little later, but we understand the mall closes early so it's partially out of their control.

Went to get a breakfast burritos, the lady there was the only one working but she noticed me…read morestanding there waiting to order, she got my order and took my cash with her gloves she had on from working in the back. She went to make my food with those same gloves still on!! Gross!! Handled my money and made my food with the same gloves on. I couldn't eat my food, I threw it away.
