At the airport in Anchorage awaiting a flight and I chose Norton Sound Seafood for the first time. My salmon soup and salad were excellent as well as my waitresses Kristin and Rose.

We ordered the Alaskan salmon and bacon cheeseburger. We absolutely loved both. The salmon was very well cooked and tasted great. The burger was just a burger but my wife enjoyed it. It also wasn’t too pricey in my opinion. We’d definitely eat here again. Forgot the before pics

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Expecting typical airport, food, but the fish and chips were absolutely delicious! One of my favorite meals that I have in Anchorage. Big shout out to Meghan, who handled the entire dining as they were short staffed. Thanks Meghan - you rocked it!!!

Good restaurant for an airport. Waitress was delightful and helpful. My cod and chips were good but not great. 2 in my party had the clam chowder and really liked it.

Great experience. My husband got an IPA that he sent back due to sitting in the line and being old. But...the Bud Light and Prosecco were excellent! Calamari was excellent and the crab shrimp roll was good. French fries were excellent. We are happy we stopped here to wait for our flight.

I stopped in here during a layover between flights. The staff was very pleasant, quick, and efficient. The waitstaff was remarkable, made very good suggestions for food and drinks, and overall gave me a stellar experience. The bartender made an amazing drink-blood orange sunset is one you HAVE to try! It was the perfect combination of refreshing and helped calm my pre-dlight nerves. I order the halibut tacos and let me tell you they were the best I have had. As a long time Alaskan I have had the pleasure of trying many restaurant made halibut tacos and these were way above the rest. The taco shells were toasted -soft yet the slightest crunch. The add-ons were perfectly paired to give me a refreshing bite each time. And best of all, they did not skimp on the portion of halibut in each taco. It was cooked to perfection, flaky and delicious! Prices were stellar for the portion I received , and 3 tacos were all the food I could eat. Next time I go I am definitely saving a spot for their desserts because based on their menu I really was missing out not getting any this time around. 10/10- I plan to go again, and anyone who loves seafood or fish should definitely go give it a whirl.

Had a layover in ANC and was starving after our 8 hour flight. Everywhere was super busy except for this place so we decided to try it. Started the meal off with the calamari appetizer and had the wild Alaskan salmon mixed grill for the entree and it was delicious. The sauce that they put on the salmon was the best part. The portion size looks a little bit small but it filled us up surprisingly. The staff were great as well. Our waiter told us his favorite meal here and what he recommended. If you only read the bottom of this review get the wild Alaskan salmon plate. You won’t regret it!
