I had the omelette of the day that comes with bacon, potatoes, and toast and it was pretty darn good. Lots of other options as well.

The coffee was SUPER good! My husband and I both got 16oz coffees and the total was only $12 and we inhaled the coffees lol. In the cafe, we got the breakfast burrito which comes with potatoes, pico and green sauce for a total of $40. It was a pretty big burrito but was just okay. Not a blast of flavor like I was expecting based on how good the coffee was. The service was great, everyone was super kind and the food came out quick even with the morning rush during a holiday weekend!

The menu is very basic, much more like the food you'd see at a bar that just has a deep frier. The pizza is medicore. The fried chicken sandwich is bland. There are lots of beers on tap but almost all over them are from one or two mediocre breweries. Also, the men's restroom has one stall...with no door on it. I hope you like doing #2 while people look at you. Seriously, how does a restaurant not have door on the bathroom in 2026?

We started with apps- the Fresh Rolls (vegetarian/vegan) are done beautifully, but the star was the cilantro herb dressing/dip on the side was amazing- I tried to get the recipe but they weren't giving it up! I'd buy it by the bottle! The crab Rangoon were enjoyed (I don't eat them but two of the diners ate them all and loved them). The steam pork dumplings were delicious- tender, flavorful, not gummy at all. Light but filling! For main meals- Clear Tom Yum soup with shrimp: excellent flavor! Lots of shrimp and mushrooms and the perfect balance of heat and flavor. I adore good Tom Yum and struggle to find it on the Peninsula but this is one of the two best I've had worldwide. Pad Chow Mein- we got one chicken and one pork. The meat was a touch dry, but there was a decent amount of nice, light broth/sauce in the bottom. The noodles were perfect and tons of great veggies. Pad Prik Gluer Tofu- I'm not a tofu fan and even I loved this! The crispy shallots/onions were amazing (also needs to be sold by the buck!) and overall just killer flavor. Garlic Chicken- this one has some allergies so they made sure to leave off soy/gluten for us. The fried garlic on top was wonderful and the perfect texture addition, and everything was fresh and steamed perfectly. The Thai Iced Teas were fantastic as well, rich and creamy and still light. A simple Jasmine hot tea worked nicely for the rest of us. We will be back and will definitely be bringing friends. Large portions, excellent quality and great service- The whole Peninsula needed this place!

An interesting place, and as it opens very early in the morning, it's a great choice for breakfast…read more It's always been busy when we've been in. The vibe inside is old-fashioned, and features antique ranges, but it's definitely a no-frills type of place. The staff are on the ball, and get you seated quickly, with drinks being served fast, and with a smile. We were there for breakfast on Saturday morning at 8am, but have also been there for lunch (Their onion rings are amazing) i got the eggs benedict with bacon, potatoes on the side, I'm not sure what husbands was called, but it featured biscuits n gravy, 3 scrambled eggs, and choice of bacon or sausage. We both got coffee, and it's a diner, so they come around with the coffee pot constantly offering refills. Benedict was only average today I'm afraid, my egg yolk was jammy, rather than runny. The hollandaise was unusual, and quite salty - not awful, just not the best I've ever had, but equally it wasn't horrible. It would not stop me coming back. The potatoes - i believe they were frozen, and not fresh. Again, not awful, just not the best I've had. The bacon was good, the muffin was good too. I ate most of it, so obviously it was an acceptable meal. Husband ate everything but half a biscuit. I'd probably rate the food we had today at a 3, though i have had better food here, so this is not a rating set in stone, my experience was a 4 star, as the staff are lovely, and service is very good, and i will still come back.

It's not fancy, but has its charm. Prices were reasonable, we shared a chicken avocado melt sandwich with upgrade onion rings. Very tasty. Also had an Alaskan IPA. But the best part, hands down, was the clam chowder! Lots of clams, vegetables, and potatoes. Not your usual cream sauce, potatoes and clams, but with so much more - flavorful and balanced. Advertised as "world-famous". I've had a lot and this one is probably the best chowder I've ever had! Don't miss it. (I recommended it to another fellow boater and they agreed that it was excellent!) Also "shout out" to our server Madison, who did a great job, and was very friendly. Thanks! Attached is a picture of the front of the restaurant with the owner who politely posed for a picture for the review when I asked.

The place was almost empty, but that made for excellent customer service and the usual chit chat between Alaskan types. From the outside it looks like a motel/hotel, but inside, once you find the hallways to the restaurant, and/or deck, it's a good size dining hall. The Beluga Blue, their blue cheese burger, and tots, were the prefect meal for a cool overcast day. Cooked perfect, and the bacon was delish, not too crispy for a burger!
