The 12 Best Restaurants in Homer and Halibut Cove, Alaska | Eater

"Fat Olive’s, or “Fatty’s” as the locals often call it, is consistently one of the best restaurants in town. The food is unabashedly Italian American, but not in an over-the-top way. Think cozy and inviting, like your best friend’s mom’s kitchen. The chicken calzone is not to be missed; they also make a superb New York-style pizza. And there’s a thoughtful selection of craft beer and wine to wash it down with." - Kris Farmen

Have always enjoyed the pizza here! It never disappoints! This last trip I tried the Greek salad and it was huge and amazing! The garlic parmesan dressing is so yummy. The system between the waitress/ hostess is strange, we would ask the waitress for something and she would send the hostess out and we would have to repeat the request again, I know its an incredibly busy place but maybe a better communication system would be more effective. Will always come back!

Pizza was good. The atmosphere was snobby & stuck up. While waiting to be seated we were looking at the menu, the hostess took the menus out of our hands & said the table will be ready in a minute 😮🤷‍♀️ The special sign was two sided also looking at that while waiting. She got an attitude & said that was the dinner special & pulled the sign back away from us. Your better off ordering at the to go window & not dealing with the staff inside.

Fat Olives – A Classy Slice with a Side of Sass Fat Olives serves up a big plate of charm with a generous helping of grease - and I mean that in the tastiest way possible. This place is easy to find with a decently sized parking lot (a rare dough-light in busy Homer), and I loved the dedicated to-go window up front. It keeps things flowing so the dining area doesn’t feel like a waiting room at the DMV. Vibe: The vibe is a mix of rustic, artsy, and pizza-parlor posh. The high ceilings make it feel airy and a bit upscale, which pairs nicely with the casual menu. The art lining the walls is all from a single artist. It’s cohesive, sure, but with all the mural talent around Homer, I’d love to see them toss in some variety. Think of it like toppings on a pizza—why settle for just cheese when you’ve got all of Alaska’s creative spice rack to choose from? The space is divided into two main eating rooms, separated by a partial wall. We were seated in the back room, which felt a little disconnected. If you need to use the bathroom, be prepared for the Homer version of an art gallery walk - looping through both rooms and around the corner. Not a deal-breaker, but definitely a bit of a trip. Food: Here’s where things get saucy. Most of the food was a little greasy, but oh-so-good. My calzone was stuffed to perfection—flaky on the outside, molten cheese lava on the inside, and big enough to double as a life raft. If you're only here once, cal-zone in on that order. My wife went for the salmon burger, and while we appreciate the use of fresh fish, it came out pretty mushy - as if the chef forgot whether it was supposed to be grilled or gently whispered over a candle. It wasn’t reel-y hitting the mark. Definitely room for improvement there. The kids’ menu was slim, but they kindly whipped up a simple bowl of buttered pasta when we asked - pasta la vista, picky eater meltdown. Service: It’s a sit down place. I will say, when I asked for a small customization, our server rolled her eyes so hard I thought she might sprain something. I get it, we all have those days, but don’t toss shade when I’m just trying to toss ideas. It left a bit of a weird aftertaste. Overall: Fat Olives is a solid 4-star experience—delicious food, an inviting space, and a name that’s hard not to love. With just a bit more attention to hospitality, a more adventurous art mix, and a rethink on that salmon burger, they’d easily rise to the top of the pizza food chain. In the meantime, I’ll be back for that calzone. It’s the upper crust of Homer eats.

Fat Olives is one of the most popular Italian restaurants in Alaska, and I was excited to finally check it out for myself. From the moment I walked in, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff made for a great first impression. It was quiet, comfortable, and a perfect setting for a relaxing meal. The menu had an amazing selection, though they were unfortunately out of steak and all of their fettuccine pasta options, leaving only red sauce-based dishes. While it was a little surprising, there were still plenty of choices to enjoy. We started with the oysters, and I was impressed by both the quantity and the presentation. The sauce complemented them perfectly, and they paired wonderfully with my wine. Since my original pasta choice wasn’t available, I decided to go for a pizza instead—and I’m so glad I did. The flavors, the perfect blend of cheeses, and the way everything melted together made for an absolutely incredible bite. Honestly, it’s one of the best pizzas I’ve had in Alaska, easily making my top 10. Overall, I highly recommend Fat Olives. It’s a true gem in Homer, and if you’re in the area, it’s a must-visit!

This place has amazing food. The shrimp and scallop appetizer was incredible. The seasoning they use on the shrimp is unique and amazing. The salmon cakes were so good as well. We also got the olives special pizza and it was delicious!

A nice place to stop after a long day of fishing. Its our go to place in homer and we love even just sitting at the bar. We have dined in and then did order out. I will say that if you call at 832pm they will not take carry out orders. Even though the phone line was busy for the last 30 min as you try to reach them. The pizza was great and the kids mac n cheese was a hit.

What a great, interesting vibe place. Had the salmon cakes and slaw, which are a must. Then I had a "small" pizza. Also impressive, the crust was for real! The waitresses were super helpful too. If I lived here I would be back. Interesting art as well. Great music.

Food overall was very good. Service was up to par. Ambience was minimal and noisy due to almost everything being a hard surface. Apps were very good. Pizza and the seafood pasta were great and the pork chop was only slightly overcooked. My wife and I had the seafood stew. Not a hit . More of a miss. Was way too salty. And it had heat but wasn't real spicy like the menu suggested. Since we are from out of state we in all probability will not return. If we we in state would give them another chance. Oh yes , Our waiter never inquired about our meal and when I started to approach him he tuned his back and walked away from me . Not a good look!

It was an ok dining experience Salmon salad was nothing spectacular just a salad the salmon was dry over cooked. I had the stew it was equally just ok the bread I used to soak in the stew was probably the best thing about my entree. And the bottle of champagne I ordered was pretty decent. Our waiter Brian was The best thing about the place he was attentive helpful & made sure I left with the remainder of sparkling wine!

We ordered the 18" pizza, half carnivore and half pineapple and ham. Now, I know pineapple on pizza can be a hot topic--some love it, some don't. My wife's a fan, but I'm firmly in the 'no pineapple' camp. Still, to each their own! We decided on pickup since the wait for a table was over an hour, but our order was ready in just 20 minutes. While I can't speak to the ambiance, the order process was seamless, and the gentleman on the phone was super friendly. The pizza was hot and ready on time, which was great! When I opened the box, I was greeted with what looked like the perfect pizza. I apologize in advance for the photo--two slices were already missing because I couldn't resist trying it first! The crust was excellent--crispy, thin, and with a firm texture. The outer edge had that beautiful bubbly look that you'd expect from a classic wood-fired oven. When I took a bite, the cheese stretched just enough without pulling off all the toppings, which was a pleasant surprise. The carnivore half was full of savory, umami flavors that blended perfectly with the chewy, slightly smoky dough. You could really taste the wood-fired oven in each bite. Overall, this was easily the best pizza I've had in Alaska! I highly recommend giving their food a try. While we didn't get the chance to dine in--though I'm sure that would've enhanced the experience--I'm giving it 4 stars simply because we missed out on that part of it.

I hadn't visited Homer in yeeeears and to my surprise there are a lot of highly rated places here. One on our list was Fat Olives. We got the Olive Special pizza and it was verrrry good. The crust is just like (MT in Anchorage) chewy like a dough but light and airy. It had cream cheese, mozzarella, pineapple, fresh tomatoes pieces, an olive tapenade, and garlic. I didn't taste any garlic and we went with no jalapeños. Even though there is no meat on it, it was very good. The creaminess of the cream cheese with the sweet pineapple and the taste of the olives which were finely chopped green and kalamata, was so good together. We got an 18" and were able to do half and half so we got half olives special and the barnyard which was chicken and bacon. Place was small with a few tables where the bar was and the service was prompt and just the right amount. Was 26.50 for a 18" plus tax not too bad a price overall.

Was highly recommended by everyone when I told them I was going down to Homer. Happy to come down and check it out. The pizza was delicious. Delicious and was delicious again a few hours later and delicious again the next morning. Highly recommend The olive special pizza. It was fantastic. How can you go wrong with cream cheese, pineapple, and olive spread! We opted out for the jalapeños. Place was clean very nice not too crazy busy on a Monday night.

Angie was an excellent server, very friendly, good appearance, and very attentive. My Olives Special veggie pizza was excellent, the pizza crust was perfect and the mozzarella was so good! My cesar salad was also excellent! My dad ordered the Maui Zowie pizza and his thoughts were it wasn't a good combo of toppings, he also got the tomato basil bisque soup and he said there was no basil, besides two little pieces on the top. But all food came out hot temperature wise and our dessert came on a cold plate and holy cow was it be carrot cake delicious!! 10/10 from me! Thank you FO & Angie!

Excellent pizza joint! A waiter from another restaurant Recommended this spot even though we were asking about Fish n Chips!! So you know it's good if the locals eat here. We ordered a Large Carnivore pizza for the 4 of us. It was truly 18"!! It came out very hot and easily fed all 4 of us. Sadly I found the crust to be a little too floppy and difficult to eat by hand when I folded it. And I wished there were more of the meat toppings. But nonetheless, I had 2 slices after a day of fishing and my belly had no complaints. The Caesar salad was delicious and the dressing was just perfect. Not too heavy and not artificial tasting. It was light! Just a simply great salad! And the service was excellent; everything you want it to be!! Even Great beer options. I'll definitely be back to try some pasta.

Yuck. once was a good spot but gone way downhill what is stated on the menu is not meaningful to them. too bad because they're open year round and I don't think they will do so good next winter unless they make some changes to at least a few of their business aspects. I had heard the rumor about the bad food and service and thought I would try it myself. true about the bad food and bad service I found

I've tried Olives several times, and each time it was borderline inedible. These people have no clue how to make a pizza, always thin soggy crust, overly greasy and undercooked, a sad excuse of a pizza indeed. But then again they have a bunch of children working the kitchen so I don't know what else they expect. Hire some adults to cook your food!

I've known about Fat Olives since I moved to Alaska some 9+ years ago. Why am I just now reviewing them? Because I just now visited them. Why did I just now visit them? I honestly don't know. Maybe because I'm not in Homer all that often? Why am I not in Homer all that often? Because you need to take a boat if you want to hike anywhere! Moving right along: this place is great. I think I was also worried that is was "too fancy", but, it's just the right amount of fancy. All the dishes are thoughtful and well-prepared. They lean on the traditional side of cooking but, just a little bit. I got the steak, and it was both better and, surprisingly, cheaper than a similar dish in Anchorage! The mound of potatoes was MASSIVE. My only qualm is that they were a bit lukewarm in temperature.

Fat Olives was an unexpected treat in Homer, Alaska. It is a casual restaurant with table service and friendly staff. I started with a half dozen oysters right out of the Bay of Ketchican. They were served with a very nice dipping sauce, sliced lemons and Tabasco. My main was the cipollini, which was crowded with shrimp, scallops, muscles topped with a huge serving of grilled salmon. All of this over a base of rice. The tomato broth was lukewarm, which was odd as the rice, sea creatures, and salmon were all hot. All in all, it was a tasty dish that I enjoyed. I saw several salads and pizza delivered to nearby tables, and since I didn't try those, I cannot comment on the taste, but they were a great feast for the eyes. Check it out if you're in the vicinity.

We arrived in Homer late afternoon, this restaurant had good reviews and was in walking distance of our hotel. The hostess greeted us immediately and let us know there would be a 10-20 minute wait. We said okay, so she gave us a buzzer and the menu. She also offered to bring us drinks and put the charges on our table tab. We sat down in probably 10 minutes. Our waitress came right over and took our order. We got a Caesar salad to split (good thing we split it, because it was way too much for one person). We also ordered a pizza with pepperoni, extra cheese and an olive tapenade on the side (I like olives on my pizza, but my spouse does not). The salad was tasty, but maybe needed a bit more dressing. The pizza was hot and good. The crust was perfect, the sauce was spicy and the pepperoni and cheese were great. We also tried the Homer Irish red ale draft, which was very good. This was a great choice!

I did not expect such good pizzas in Alaska, and in Homer, no less! The dough had the right amount of chew and thickness, the toppings were fresh and the ratio of sauce, topping, and crust was just right, in my opinion. They tasted of a legit pizza oven. They offered a 12 inch and 18 inch, both are bigger than the stated size. The ambiance is open and casual. Service was excellent. Our server was friendly and accommodating. She took off the salads from our bill because they came out sort of late. Salads were decent. Large piles of fresh veggies.

Came into Fat Olives for dinner. It was pretty crowded and we ended up at a small table near the window. The tables has a lot of "stuff" on it (salt pepper cheese) and drink menu. We ordered two drinks a pizza and cheese bread. The cheese bread is the same size of the pizza so our table didn't have any space for the 2 pizzas essentially. Being next to the window after sunset was unpleasant as people don't have the common courtesy to turn off there headlights. As we are trying to have a nice dinner a car parked for a good 15 minutes waiting to pick up a pizza they called in. It was pretty frustrating with the headlights right at our face level. I wish people were more considerate of what they're doing. Our server was absolutely fantastic and the food was super delicious. We will come back next time in Homer - and will request a table away from the window.

We decided on Fat Olives for an early dinner. We walked from our hotel which was perfect. We opted to sit at the bar and was served by Sarah, who was excellent. We enjoyed meeting her and her wine recommendations! We started with The Trio for an appetizer, garlic ricotta, olive tapenade, smoked salmon dip served with warm flat bread. Excellent! We had a burger and Mac and Cheese with shrimp added! Both very good! A local recommended this place and we were very happy we followed their suggestion!

The food was good but wrong. Placed order two days a head of time for track team. Called same day to verify. Get there when it's supposed to be done and no order. Forgot about it. Staff is all stoned and customer response was terrible. Ate here before and good restaurant but always slow but obviously need to at least keep the manager sober.

Pizza was great to feed a whole extended family, the center was little greasy but that's expected when ordering a 28-inch pizza.

If I could give half stars, it would be 2.5 rather than 2. The menu was a bit lean though overly ambitious for the chef. Service was solid though the pacing in bringing the plates was off. Let's start with service. We were greeted warmly and promptly. Drinks were offered, ordered and served timely. Nothing truly stand out as unique in the drink menu, mostly canned cider, beer, and soda. Nothing original nor unique. Still, solid basic drinks. One thing that we did appreciate, our water glasses were never left empty! That's a big deal for us. The serving of the food was rushed. We were not finished with the apps when the entrees were served, after, maybe at most, 5 minutes from the apps. Way too quick. Okay the food. Apps first. The Alaska Sampler and the Scallops with Shrimp. The scallops were tiny though tasty. Well seared, firm, well seasoned. Same with the shrimp. Best part of the entire meal. The Alaska Sampler was decent. The reindeer sausage was great and the chutney was a close second. Everything else seemed pedantic. Not horrible, just not inspiring. As for the entrees, two of us ordered the steak (sirloin), one of us the carnivore pizza, another the shrimp and scallops over rice, and lastly one of us the Cesar salad with chicken added. A very mixed bag of results! The steaks were tough and the overall flavor bland. The mashed potatoes were rustic mashed. The veggies were sautéed green beans. What was very off-putting was the decision to plate this with a gravy/sauce better suited to a chicken pot pie. Think celery and carrots in what tasted like a chicken based gelatinous mixture. The flavors absolutely did not fit the steak or the overall dish. Way too ambitious! The pizza looked amazing on the surface though was watery underneath which led to a mushy crust. The salad was very tasty and fresh. Can't really go too wrong with a salad. The shrimp and scallops over rice were the only dish that truly seemed to come together. From start to finish, 25 minutes. Yes, 25 minutes. Felt like a fast food restaurant in terms of timing. The food just seemed like someone was trying too hard to stand out, be impressive, and served to flatter the chef's ego. One dinner patron at a neighboring table was overheard to say, "if this represents haute cuisine in Homer, then they would go crazy over a Chili's here!". Yes, that would be about right.

Busy place on a rainy lunch hour, which is always a good sign. Pizza seems to be very popular and looks delicious. We were a party of 6- one person ordered a calzone and really liked it. I had shrimp and scallops with a side salad and it was good. Reasonable portions and price. The bowl of mushroom soup with bread was really nice though. Hardy bowl of mushrooms and veggies. Fish sandwich was okay, nothing spectacular or memorable. The beer menu is really good too- lots of local options and both draft and bottled beers. I do wish I would have tried the pizza. Next time.

You know the expression bigger is better? We'll have you ever tried getting a 28" pizza box into your car and through the door? Imagine our total surprise when the pizza arrived and 6 of us couldn't even put away a half of this giant tasty half pesto & meat and Hawaiian pizza. The crust was perfect, the ingredients super fresh, and there were plenty of left overs for the boys early morning combat fishing on the Russian River!

4.5 Stars! The environment throughout the restaurant is amazing, always such kind and loveable workers helping out; super quick to come get our orders and drinks out. We normally get pizza (I know, big shocker) from here and it is divine. The only reason for the "4.5 stars" is because on the rare occasion it can come out a tiiinnyyy bit too greasy, but other than than... *chefs kiss*

After fishing all day my son and I craved pizza. The 2 of us split a 18" 1/2 Barnyard the other Swine pizza. It was fantastic! The crust was crisp the topping plentiful and Danny the server was on the spot. The beer was cold and the we had plenty of water refills. We also saw lots of other wonderful looking dishes being served but the pizza was a beast. I'd go there anytime anywhere in the country. Solid place.

The water was the best thing I had: A quote from my fiancée. A big oof for Fat Olives, you've gotten fat on rave reviews of yesteryear. As a former local who has visited for the first time in a decade, I can see how lazy the food has become. Menu: sandwiches, salads and pizza. Was this a lunch menu? Everything was horrifyingly overpriced for the options that were offered. No specials..... during tourist season?? What happened to the ABC sandwich? Fountain drinks are also no longer a thing. Huge bummer. Restaurant: Virtually unchanged from 2012, my last visit to my beautiful hometown. Service: Wasn't checked on between orders and food. Pretty slow overall in a not full restaurant. Food: Soggy, doughy pizza. I remember this place was a rising star in Homer for years, offering us young folks hope that Homer was on the road to improvement, offering affordable and delicious pizza by the slice to hungry high schoolers and young adults out looking for something between Don Jose's and Cups Cafe in terms of price and quality. I was excited to dine here once again; many fond memories came flooding back as we walked in of friends and classmates making their start here waiting tables and working the pizza oven. Then, it was stellar. Crispy pizza with the charred dough bubbles with spicy sausage and above par ingredients. Today, very meh. The quality has taken a huge nosedive. My pizza was barely done, not crispy at all. All the sauce was toward the edges. Ingredients were very low quality and lacking in any kind of flavor. Overall: as I understand it, this place is under new ownership. Well, the owner is obviously pocketing the extra money they saved not hiring competent staff or purchasing quality ingredients. Good job!

We ended up at Fat Olives only because every single other place we tried to go for lunch happened to be closed. It turned out to be a lucky strikeout for us. We were greeted and seated promptly, and service continued to be efficient and pleasant for our visit. The three of us shared a Caesar Salad (very fresh and flavorful) and a Mediterranean Pizza (artichoke, tomato, olive tapenade, pesto, feta, and mozzarella). It was a decent thin crust with a good amount of toppings. Happy with our meal, we'd definitely come back again.

Holy SMOKES!!!!!!! I can't rave enough about this delicious wonderful restaurant. The portions were on point for the family of 10. The Swine and the Veg Garden (I can't even remember the name. It has pesto and veggies) were a HIT! I come to Alaska once a year and after discovering this with my Alaskan family during out Homer camping trip, it's now a tradition. The funny part about the Yelp Community? They helped me find this gem by searching "Big ass pizza". Yup. Big ass pizza. Y'all did not let me down!!! Always, the coupe de grace was the staff!! The staff alone have me go back over and over again. We ordered the Swine and Hawaiian esque the first time and on our way home, the afformentioned in the beginning. See you next year!!!

We called in an order for 2 pizzas and pickup while visiting the Bear Creek Winery (we stayed at their terrific lodging). It was a 45 minute wait, but when we arrived, they had given our order away on accident to another customer! The manager said they would give us our pizzas for free, but it would be another 20-25 minutes. When we did get our order, it was delicious. They seemed understaffed and overwhelmed, but the product is good. I'd definitely give them another chance.

We stopped into Fat Olives Restaurant for lunch after fishing one day. I saw the menus online but didn't realize that the menu for lunch was different. We wanted some hearty pasta after a long morning of fishing but the only pasta dish for lunch was Mac N Cheese. We were all a bit disappointed. We started with the Dip Trio. We all loved the Salmon Dip. I was primarily salmon bright and flavorful. The Ricotta dip was bit boring. It was smooth and creamy but not much to it other than that. The Olive Tapenade was my favorite but fair warning of the garlic. It is REALLY garlicky. I ate just about all of it before I realized just how much garlic was in it but it was worth it. I chose the special of Rockfish Tacos. The tacos were good and the side salad was great. My partner got the Calzone and wasn't too fond of it. It had a ton of onions in it and just wasn't that flavorful. Our friend got the Meatball Sub and loved the meatballs but said the bread was a bit too big. Overall, we liked our meals but were all disappointed at the lack of pasta dishes for lunch.

Seafood Fettuccine pasta was perfectly al dente, the scallops tender and moist, the Rockfish tender and delectable. The salad is fresh, Balsamic Walnut Vinaigrette dressing tastes homemade, large portion. The beverage selection is quite good and makes for ideal pairings.

There is just something about this restaurant, it always calls me back , the food , the service , the attention to the details all are exceptional. On this particular night a beautiful group of my girlfriend La were out to celebrate a birthday. Fat olives made her feel special and we all enjoyed amazing food ! I had the bolognese and the pasta was cooked to perfection and the sauce was clearly made with time and quality ingredients. I shall return again

We stayed in Homer for the last two days of 2020, and New Years 2021. This restaurant is a known entity to us and we ordered takeout, twice during our stay. So, here are my thoughts about this place during coronavirus. They require face masks to enter and order, and hand sanitizer is near the order window. Nothing wrong with that, and customers try to maintain a safe distance; however, people get jammed up while waiting for a dining table or takeout. The staffer at the order window wears a face mask, but what I saw was that all the people working in the front kitchen were only pretending to wear masks. They wore masks under their chin, under their nose, or not at all. We ordered a Carnivore pizza, very good, and a Caesar Salad with anchovies, it was fair. This joint has been in business for many, many years and is well known.

Stopped by for a quick-ish lunch with the family while we were out and about. Wait wasn't bad but it was early and was getting busier by the time we left. It took a bit and others seemed to come and go before us (even larger groups)- it took us about an hour and a half. That said, it was worth the wait. Note- if you are sensitive to noise know that it's a bit loud inside. The staff was pleasant, and overall the food was good. They had GF pizza dough and sandwich buns options, which is great, and plenty of salads and veggie options too. We started with oysters, salmon patties and chicken skewers. We all had different favorites which was fun. The salmon patties had a decent kick, the chicken was moist and delicious, and the oysters were very acidic but I enjoyed them- my wife said they had a bit too much spice in the vinegar sauce. The GF pizza was devoured by the youngest and looked good. The chicken sandwich was moist and the hamburger was a bit overdone but was decently juicy, thanks largely to the extras on it I think. We both had salads with the sandwiches and those were fine. The other kiddo ordered a chicken calzone and he said it was delicious. None of liked the sauce that came with it and the chips were (pretty sure) Lays potato chips with parsley on top lol. Overall all it was a good experience, and we will go back.
