“Pretty Good”

El Pescador Bar & Grill

Jul 14, 2008

We just ate here a couple hours ago for lunch and I was looking up somewhere for dinner tonight when I came across the bad reviews. My only complaint would be the wait for food, it did take quite a while for 2 pretty simple things- steamers and fish tacos. But the service was friendly and the margaritas (w/Sauza Comemorativo) were great, so we weren't complaining. The steamers came with mussels which were not very good, but the clams themselves were very good in a nice broth. Fish tacos were great as well, with plenty of halibut and fresh trimmings. Overall, it was a nice lunch. It sounds as though others had worse experiences, maybe they lack consistency.

We arrived in Homer after a long drive from Anchorage and we were hoping for a decent meal, instead, we waited an hour for tasteless meat, barely steamed broccoli, and terrible potatoes. Do not waste your time or money here.

More than an hour waiting for our very simple meal. About a tablespoon of halibut in the fish tacos. The grilled burrito was ordered without grilled peppers and sour cream -- but arrived with both. After waiting so long, we weren't about to complain, but this is one of the worst restaurants I have ever visited.
On the other hand, Crabbie's in Homer is quite wonderful.

Nasty food. The shrimp were freezerburned. Vile. The locals won't eat here, so they shut down completely except for summer tourists.

We arrived beat and hungry at 2 PM. Wanted to hit the SpitFire Grill fast, but it was closed. We wandered in to El Pescador, next door. It looked like a tourist trap. However, we liked the plates we saw coming from the kitchen. An hour later we had just finished the best meal we had in ten days in Alaska (including Simon's and Glacier Brewhouse). It was a Catalan Seafood Stew, loaded with salmon, halibut, king crab, shellfish, in a saffron-butter sauce. Once in southern France I had something this good, but only once. Wow.
