Stuff your Porthole reminds me of a mix of a eggs benedits and loco moco mashed together. Warning this is very filling, food coma approaching. I ordered the Pulled Pork sandwich with chips. A classic setup no suprises here. delicious to the end ordering in person was fast and it took about 10 minutes to get the food I parked on the street, but here is a free lot near by. Took the food to go. Affordable food and great taste read more

What a delightful little food truck!! I had the Deckhand breakfast sandwich and my tastebuds were in heaven. It was the perfect breakfast sandwich! My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito and said it was delicious and hit the spot. Service was quick and we ended up eating right outside there at the tables they had set up. The light music playing from inside the kitchen truck, with the sun shining on us, was a great ambiance to enjoy our food before heading back home to Anchorage Definitely recommend and we will be back read more

The porthole was great super close to our location that we were taking our cruise from so it worked out perfectly to grab a nice sized breakfast before we hopped on the boat. Breakfast was great. We got the biscuits and gravy and it was delicious. The burritos looked phenomenal as well. This place can get busy there were 20 of us waiting for food, but they were still able to knock everything out fairly quickly. I would just plan accordingly if you're getting on a boat. read more

We got the "stuff your porthole" which was two buscuits with gravy, hashbrowns, two fried eggs, sausage, bacon, and cheese. We shared it and it was enough food. As we waited for our food everybody kept ordering the breakfast burrito. The hashbrowns were mostly shredded prices everywhere, not so much cooked together. The buscuits were very soft and the gravy had kind of a weird color to it, almost pinkish, had pepper but overall it was good. The hours are 5am to 2 pm. We didn't have to wait too long for our food maybe 10-15 minutes. read more

These people put love and care into their food and you can just taste the difference, from quality to seasoning to presentation. Absolutely wonderful food and pretty good coffee as well.

Excellent Food Truck near the docks in Seward. Lots of breakfast and Lunch items that you can grab on the go. We were waiting for a marine tour and picked up the Hamburito and breakfast sandwich with coffee. The prep was quick and the food was excellent from the bread and wrap to the fresh items inside. No issues this was a quick meal and it met the needs. Very good and decently priced. Not much seating other than a picnic table. Condiments on another table. Very friendly staff!

I'm so happy this place exist. All their menu items are amazing and delicious. The most amazing one is though the biscuits and gravy. You can get them with different topping like bacon or sausages. It's perfect breakfast before you go on a fishing trip. Or a nice snack after you return from the trip super hungry. Their service is quick and attentive. They have a small bench table in front of their food truck but no other seating. I just either eat in the car or bring it back to my camp site to enjoy. Whenever I'm in Seward, I try to find a meal time to squeeze it in. You should try them too! read more

Last month, we finally made it to Alaska for the first time, taking the cruise we had originally…read morebooked for June of 2020 (thanks, covid!). Unsurprisingly, though, when I checked back two years after I'd made a list of places I wanted to try on that trip, not everything on my original list was still there! Anyway, one of the places yelp told me had closed was called "Dockside Dogs", a little stall by the docks selling really inventive, high quality hot dogs out of a tent. So I made other plans - but the day of, those plans fell through (I'm really glad I got to try Firebrand's bbq the day previous - so fantastic I was extra looking forward to trying their breakfast burritos... until their smoker happened to need repairs the second day out of two we were in Seward and they closed unexpected!) So I figured I'd just walk downtown and see if there was anything I missed, and sure enough, as it turns out, Wild Spoon had *just* opened (when I was there, there were no yelp reviews yet!) - and "Dockside Dogs" was on their menu? Yep - the reason I mentioned Dockside Dogs specifically is: they got a proper cart, expanded their menu beyond only dogs, changed their name and moved downtown, but if you were looking for Dockside Dogs, here they are! I wasn't *super* hungry that day, so I just got one Seattle dog, for $10. Their dogs aren't enormous, so if you were particularly hungry, you'd probably want 2 - still, for Seward, that's quite reasonable, for dogs that, just to be clear, the couple other people in line with me were all raving about, and I totally see why. I'm also happy to say that, even though there were a couple people in front of me, and it *is* all being done out of a trailer, I had a sausage in my hand in just a few minutes. Anyway, it was a pretty fantastic sausage - meaty, juicy, smoky, plenty of perfectly-cooked onions - then, for $2 extra (the "basic" sausage is $8), a bunch of cream cheese. Was the cream cheese worth $2? Honestly, kinda yeah, cream cheese is a perfect sausage topping, and it went perfectly with the sausage and onions, it's a pretty perfect combo, and an extremely satisfying sandwich! I *would* want to try their other dogs if I were ever back in Seward, though, too. (I want to try the chowder, too! Too bad Seward is a jillion miles from California!) Only a couple minor complaints, mainly just due to the fact that they're a tiny operation right now - as far as cold drinks, they only have Izzes and bottled water, and they have literally one seat at one table. When I was there last month with no advance planning, that meant I took their one seat and drank an Izze, but if I were ever back in Seward, I'd come back here for sure, then get a drink somewhere else nearby, take them to a nearby park, Seward is covered in gorgeous parks to picnic a stone's throw away in all directions. (You can tell I miss being on vacation, probably.)

Coffee was good but not necessarily the best, lots of herbaceous drink combos if you enjoy that, other coffees balanced and delicious and the team takes care. However, the space seems overwhelming there are so many people that want to try it and I get why, but the line winds through the tables and there's lots of bumping and crowing in an almost uncomfortable manner which kills a chill morning vibe unfortunately. Baked goods are acceptable but not to die for- though I think maybe this leads back to your & my personal preference, geared toward an earthy pallet. 4 stars for Asthetic and product. They could benefit from an online ordering system or a counter persons who's only job was to get the order quick so guests could wait away from the service area. Too bad the counter for order wasn't near the back, that would fix the flow of the whole store, make it more enjoyable for guests and probably increase sales dramatically. Just a thought. Definitely go, avoid peak hours and order according to your preference so you can enjoy every drop.
