This place was so packed tonight, because it's the height of the tourist season (we couldn't get parked for a good 10 minutes) and so the place was HEAVING and packed to the rafters. Even so, we were seated immediately, and the fancy water carafe brought to us. Obviously I think most of the people in here are tourists. Most don't look Alaskan, if you know what I mean. I order the sublime Parm Fry Stack, that I've been dreaming about for 7 months, and he got, oh who cares what he got, I don't remember. He should write his own reviews. Despite the jam-packed dining room, it was not overly noisy, and you could hear your conversation. I had an unfortunate experience at a cafe recently, where I encountered one of those people who love the sound of their own voice, instead of chowing down on some good food. Fortunately there were none of those type in here, and so I got to appreciate my Parm Fry Stack in peace. Our server seemed surprised that I only wanted the Parm Fry Stack, and not a proper entree, and we wouldn't be sharing them between us, along with our main meal. No! Potatoes can be a main too. Well. You know the last time I had them, I was impressed. It was a sizable portion. This time, it was an absolutely enormous portion. A DAUNTING portion. Even I was dubious that I could manage it. But they were as epically delicious as the first time with no difference in flavour at all, which I am supremely grateful for. I don't give out awards such as Number 1 fry in Alaska lightly, but this humongous beast has earned its place, and retained it with consistent quality. Absolutely beautiful!

4th Place Homer AK Halibut and Chips Throwdown 2025…read more We chose AJ's for our last dinner in Homer and were disappointed. The halibut and chips were over cooked and expensive. We added king crab to a salad and got a tablespoon of crab. On the upside the service was good and the venue has a final frontier vibe.

I was disappointed by the seafood, because you would think they would know how to bring out the best of their local seafood. The scallops and halibut tasted plain, and we've had better with how they were prepared in Seward. The steak was good but also plain. There was no creativity whatsoever with the food or flavors. They have many drink options, alcoholic and nonalcoholic (I saw a whole page of mocktails). The ambiance is warm and a feels a bit old fashioned. Tables are covered with black tablecloth. We had an attentive server, and service was quick.

We showed up here like 3-4 times in week and each time there was a different bartender. Many locals at the bar willing to spark up a convo about the area or the fishing, etc. Pull Tab MECCA and they must go thru a ton of them & no you're never gonna win a cent but it's fun! They do food trucks on the weekends that in most cases have much better food that the restaurants if that makes any sense. With hours of 10AM-5AM it's a must stop joint!

If you're not from Homer, you'll probably be the only person in here that's not. I have a high tolerance for cigarette smoke, and it is too smokey in here, even for me. There is a small patio though, which solves the problem.

I definitely could have eaten there several times on my short stay. I enjoyed one of their non alcoholic mocktails which was delicious and fruity. For an appetizer I shared the king crab fondue which was to die for. There were big chunks of crab and the cheese was very liquidy which made the bread absorb it nicely. Not sure what sort of cheese it was, but it was tasty. I ended up having the shrimp dumplings as my entree and it was very filling as well as delicious. Service was quick and attentive. They have nice outdoor seating too.

Chips and salsa are NOT complimentary. A basket of chips and two bowls of salsa wasn't terribly expensive at 4.50. But hot salsa wasn't available when we went. So they gave us two milds. The salsa tasted a little weird. I couldn't tell if an ingredient was missing or if there was some other funky aspect. Either way, I didn't eat many chips (which made the paying for it seem a little more frustrating). The queso appetizer was delicious. Great serving size and great flavor. Everyone at the table agreed and there wasn't any left at the end. Beer selection included a couple local craft beers and plenty of bottles. I was very happy with the Pacifico and lime I received. Service was friendly. So we're the couple on a date at the table next to us. They recommended food and drinks and told us all about places to visit in town. Apparently there are meaderys (meaderies?)open on town. Cool news! Overall, I was largely underwhelmed by the food and slightly chagrined by the chips and salsa cost.
