The 8 best spots for tacos in Seward

Reindeer burrito was good, but nachos were horrible! Everyone’s side of nachos were stale to the point of breaking your teeth. I ordered halibut nachos and had about 2-3 tablespoons of meat and about 4 chips weren’t stale and I was able to eat them.

went for lunch and tried the halibut burrito, it has great flavor and the atmosphere was friendly. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and for families with kids as the menu and venu is child friendly.

This was a great find near the harbor. We had a halibut burrito which was amazing. My daughter thought the kids bean and cheese burrito was too spicy but my husband and I enjoyed her leftovers. They have great salsa and a couple tap beers. There are 2 other restaurants attached so your whole party could pick and choose if they liked.

Halibut blackened tacos were excellent! The tofu burrito with aloha salsa was extraordinaire ❤️

Good restaurant to have a fast meal. We are a family of 8. We ordered kids burritos along with some tacos and a reindeer burrito. We enjoyed the meal and the swift service. Cashier and cooks ensured that we were seated with our water cups while we wait. I would recommend this place to eat.

I was looking for a go to place with fast service. I had the Philly steak burrito. Was a good choice from the many choices that were present. Thanks to the girls working in the kitchen for that quick dinner

Great place next to the pier to get a bite before boarding the cruise. Told them I was taking a cruise in 10mn and they were super quick with making my order. Cashier/cook very nice and super helpful even went into the kitchen to finish our order.

Had such a good experience here that I had dinner twice here while staying in Steward! No wait to sit down, and attentive wait staff made for a good dinner. The Tuscan Salmon was amazing! The portions were generous and the flavors were wonderful! I highly recommend Gold Rush Bistro!!!!

Wonderful staff. Tasty food that also looks delicious. Fun restaurant/wood cabin vibe. The food here, although a little more expensive than other options, was very good and presented well on the plate. We were not disappointed at all. We had some desserts that came in larger quantities than expected, but that was a welcome thing! We were some of the last guests in the restaurant and we weren't made to rush or anything. The staff were very nice and easy to talk to. They gave us some recommendations on some good local shops to visit. A very fun place to eat, excellent fish dishes!

Such a great place! Small, but great atmosphere. We came in as a party of 5 close to closing. We asked if they could seat us. We waited about 15 minutes for another party to finish up, and were seated and served. The Tuscan Salmon was some of the best I’ve ever had! Fantastic char, and seasoning with the rice. Didn’t need anything else. Would highly recommend and these folks are trying to earn business.

Man, I really don't like giving low ratings, but the Pasta Alla Salmone that my husband and I had were so bland. Not only that, but the bell peppers weren't cooked long enough. We had to ask for salt and pepper and add it to every bite to make it taste better. Cute place, nice service, but not for me. And the water tasted weird to me.

Great place for a reasonably priced seafood dinner in Seward. Family owned and family run business that uses local ingredients. Very professional with simple yet elegant dishes. If you are looking for a drink with your meal, be advised that they don’t serve alcohol, but that did not inhibit the experience for us

The Gold Rush Bistro halibut fish and chips, chowder, and salad was my top meal during my trip! It was all very fresh and well seasoned with very generous portions. I’ll be thinking about that meal for a long time!

Food a little dry and bland but the wait staff were very helpful in getting hot sauce and lemon. Nice Italian soda, liked the vibe here too.

Having 4 kids we looked for some place all would enjoy. The kids ended up with a cheeseburger and fries, which they loved. I had the salmon & rice bowl with pico on top. The rice was delish. The salmon was dry and overcooked. That was disappointing since it was around $30-$35. All in all it was a nice end to a long day.

Spacious place with indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered salmon rice bowl which was good. Others ordered fish & Chips. Unknowingly my son placed another order for me & the manager kindly cancelled it after I requested him. I appreciate this gesture. There is a 2 hr free parking in the public lot opposite the restaurant. It is right in the heart of Seward and hard to miss. Good place for a quick bite.

The food was basic burgers, it didn’t appear that they served anything other than premade frozen food. The shrimp dishes weren’t local.

My friend and I went here for dinner a few nights ago! We had an amazing experience. The service was fantastic and we felt super welcomed. We ordered crab and it was to die for! Literally best crab I’ve ever had. I also ordered fried cod with fries and it was also delicious. Definitely a must go to spot when in Seward!

Low key seafood restaurant and good food. Very conveniently located near water front

Pizza was burnt. Fish and chips was acceptable, but greasy. Would not exactly recommend and i'm unlikely to return. Staff seemed nice and I'm sure the food hits the spot for many, but my toddler was unimpressed.

Absolutely INCREDIBLE food with fast service! The Seafood Chowder is the best I’ve had- it’s flavorful with a perfect consistency and the addition of a bread bowl makes it sheer perfection. The shrimp were fried crispy and delicious. The Halibut and Salmon Fish and Chips were both amazing as well. I can’t recommend it enough!

The halibut n chips were excellent, hot and crispy and ample portions but the jewel on the menu was reindeer sausage soup. Super delicious creamy and flavored with herbs and a pinch of red pepper with big chunks of savory meat and potatoes. Just what I needed after a rainy and chilly day. Six Alaska beers on tap and a half dozen wines. Service was excellent. It’s clean and comfy. The restaurant was not busy and we were seated immediately. We will be back. The reggae music was a bit loud but didn’t interfere with conversation.

Chattermark is a great restaurant in Seward, though it can get quite busy, especially when cruise ships are in town, which makes the restaurant get a bit loud. That said, the food was very good. I had the Battered Halibut and Chips, which was excellent, crispy, flavourful, and definitely worth recommending. My partner ordered the burger and felt it was slightly on the dry side, but still decent overall. A solid choice if you’re looking for a good meal in a lively spot.

The burger was fresh and absolutely delicious. The staff was very friendly, and the place was spotless. It also seems like there’s great communication and a positive work environment among the team. Thank you!

Music wasn't too loud. It was clean. and the food excellant. Portions were big enough to fill you up without being overstuffed. We had the signature fish and chips which came with a piece of breaded salmon and a breaded piece of halibut.

Well it's one of the places where everyone is trying to do everything. The servers tried to do their best. We had I think 2 or 3 of them because they kept changing and coming and asking the same questions. And the food? If you don't care about your money or the quality of the food then this is the perfect place for you.

Delicious seafood! We had a great dinner here and our waitress Iveta was so kind! Thanks again!

It was extremely disappointing. Everything was completely lacking in flavor and any creativity from the chef. Quinoa, salad, and blueberries with a sour sauce — plus fish! $35 for this? Zero harmony, zero taste. My husband and son ordered burgers, and they were so bland and unsalted that they had to drown them in ketchup just to make them edible!

Convenient spot to grab a bite. Fish and chips are amazing but way too expensive 😫 50 bucks! We got burgers for 18, and they were great, too. My daughter got the kids' fish and chips and let me try some. Service was great and the dining area quite elegant. I don't recommend the coleslaw, not what you would normally expect.

Close to the museum with plenty of outdoor seating, this place seems like it would be popular. We arrived on a Sunday evening and there was only other table occupied. Service and food were ok. We had the salmon with a blueberry compote and salad. Nothing special.

I’m really amazed by the king crab legs and the chowder. They taste so fresh and natural, i also tried the halibut fish and chips. I strongly suggest trying halibut and the crab. Huili is from the same country as me and all other waiters am were also so friendly. I felt like this is my second hometown, as a sea food lover.

Great recommendation from a friendly stranger. Service is outstanding. The food is delicious and well made with fresh ingredients. I had the apple walnut salad. The cod fish and chips that my mother got was crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside. My husband had the reindeer sausage soup and he wanted to come back for it. Even the kids Mac and cheese was flatbed on top. The attention to detail!!

Pretty place, great location… but that’s where it ends The building is charming and the location is fantastic, but don’t let that fool you, walk on past. The employees were friendly and the service, while a bit slow, wasn’t terrible. The menu looked fun, the dishes were plated beautifully, and the cocktails were just as gorgeous. The view from our window was fantastic. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t hold up past the aesthetics. They had the heat on, which is strange for summer, and the food missed the mark. My halibut was overcooked, the fries were undercooked, and the jalapeño coleslaw, while an interesting concept, didn’t pair well with the rest of the plate. The margarita was a heavy pour of what tasted like low-end tequila, making it undrinkable. Save your money—there are better places to eat nearby that offer both the view and the flavor.

Seasalt Alaskan Bar & Grill is a good spot for seafood and a welcoming atmosphere. Staff is attentive and friendly.

Good location right across from the sea life center. They sat us right away and were very attentive. Menu was pretty small consisting of a variety of burgers and seafood items. For 16 dollars you can get 6 coconut shrimp that come straight from Costco…. The burger I got was not good which is ironic because this place serves pretty much nothing but burgers. Place smelled like it was built in the 1800s. Do yourself a favor and eat at the taco truck across the road

Very good tacos! My personal favorite are the Rock Fish, tacos with beans and rice. The carne asada tacos are pretty darn good as well. This is a small restaurant, but they have plenty of tables. The customer service is good and the food comes out pretty fast. One of my new favorite places to come for dinner when I’m working in Seward.

Awesome rockfish tacos! The best bang for your buck in Seward, super reasonably priced. Service was great and very fast order fulfillment! Tacos were so good we had to order more! They also have a cooler with cups for free water which was a nice touch. We didn’t check this place out until the last day of our trip, but if we had been there sooner we would have been back!

Had pescado (rockfish) burrito ($13), husband had pollo (chicken) burrito ($13), and we shared a carne asada (steak) taco ($4.50). All of it was delicious. The burritos are large. The taco is small so you will need a few of them to make a meal. They have a small area where you can choose your salsa. The mild was also delicious. I didn’t try the others. I gave four star for atmosphere only because of the death metal music.

EXCELLENT fish tacos, and the staff were very kind and quick and the music was super fun! they had delicious unique taco sauces too. seriously can’t recommend enough!!

At first, I thought the Tacos were a little overpriced. But man, they were fresh and damn good. You can tell this food isn't from the freezer! Only down side is you have to go to the pub to get a beer and there is extremely limited seating. They will call you through a window on the pub side if you want to hang out there and eat! I had the hot rod!

Oh this burrito was GOOD! I will be thinking about it for a while 🌯 seasoned to perfection, cheese melty and gooey, smoky and sweet elote, soft tortilla with a bit of chewyness.... literally nothing more I could want in a burrito, 10/10 would recommend

Quick service and good tasting good. The salsa bar had some very interesting options and they were super flavorful and spicy!

Not bad at all really. Had the fish burger and it was pretty good. Just a relaxed little place to grab a bit to eat. Prices are comparable to the rest of the places around the area

I’m not one for writing reviews especially bad reviews but this was quite the experience. Got lunch here today. When we first walked in we thought it looked like it used to be a really nice pizza place. You have to order before you sit down, the person at the register was really hard to understand. We went to sit down at a booth and the whole booth had not been cleaned, there was food all over the seats, we tried to find a clean seat and had to settle for one with food still, unsanitary. It should be cleaned in between each customer. Started on the food we got the fish and chips which looked like it was served on a small cookie sheet pan, the fries were bland had no seasonings and tasted like frozen fries. They don’t tell you how much fish comes with the meal, it was just two pieces, and the fish was raw in the center. Stopped eating right then. Service was just ok, they didn’t check in on us once while we were there. Don’t recommend this place at all, I wish I had read reviews before I ate here.

The people that work here are really nice and we're working so hard to do a good job. They were very confused and unorganized about the orders and where they are supposed to go. We had a party of 3 and our food all came at different times. The shrimp and pasta wasn't very flavorful, the grilled cheese with buffalo chicken was 2 slices of bread, a couple slices of unmelted cheese and a chicken tender tossed in the middle. It actually tasted good though. This place has a lot of potential and I would go back!!

Crab is the only reason patronize this establishment. The king crab legs are delectable. Other items? the fries are greasy and limp, the breading on the halibut is wimpy, tasteless, and slides off the fish, finally, the fish itself is standard issue frozen halibut.

Food was mediocre at best. Prices too high for the quality. No ketchup bottles, just packets which had ketchup on the outside of them. Gross. Bathrooms weren’t maintained. Would definitely try somewhere else.

I try the shrimp Diablo new item on the menu!! And was sooooo good!! Also different types of crab legs!! You guys should come and try... soooo good!!

Garlic butter shrimp potentially the worst thing I have ever had a restaurant. Service was so weird. Girl behind counter barely spoke. Had to ask her everything.

If it had zero stars I would give it that. This place was terrible. The website says gluten free pizza available. However , employer said they don’t have it and manager said the should “probably update the website”. I wasn’t even able to eat there. The pizza that was purchased tasted like something you would buy at a gas station. Not special, not even decent. Don’t waste your time. Eat the pizza at Apollo or Alaskan Seafood Grill. Far better service, flavor and atmosphere.

Fabulous pizza! We got two very different pizzas and they were both wonderful. She made substitutions for me. The crust was fresh and delicious. Perfectly cooked. Quick service with a smile. Highly recommend.

If you’re only there for a night with a family or other group, I’d say this is the way to go on the north end of town. Wait time is basically what you’d wait anywhere else in the country for pizza. And it’s good pizza. Other places in the area are generally lower quality and longer waits. Ate there twice in a 4 night stay and had leftovers for lunch.

Probably the best pizza in Seward. Unfortunately, this business hires non-English speaking folks to run their business... One night I was charged $25 for a pizza, a few days later it was $31; exactly the same pie. They do not answer the phone during business hours either, had to arrive in-person to place a carry-out order.

I got the chicken barbecue. Did ask for less onion. I love onion but sometimes there is to much. The barbecue sauce was light but super flavorful. Completely enjoyable meal. Had fun playing Pacman with the wife until the pizza was ready. The crust was also perfectly airy and light and flavorful too. not bad - my highest praise.

Not sure what all the poor reviews are for - I thought it was pretty solid. I went a couple times during my stay in Seward, thought it was a good deal. Pizza was made relatively quickly and was good.

Our wings we ordered were RAW!! Do not eat here. The dining area was gross, the soda was flat and the bathroom was horrifying. **the pizza was actually decent and my dad loved it
