King Salmon - Denali Princess Lodge

The food was delicious! We had a wait but the staff made that go by fast by giving our kids the menus to color on and wiki sticks to entertain themselves. (The wait was less than quoted by almost 20 minutes!) Love that the kids menu had salmon ✅. Highly recommend the seafood dip and the pine nut linguine with salmon. Dessert looked incredible but we were stuffed! The only downside is the price but it’s on par for the type of food. And it was less expensive than other similar restaurants in the area.

This place at beautiful ambience. The food was outstanding and the staff were superb. Clean restaurant and restrooms. My meal was the best I had on my two week Alaskan vacation and cruise. Highly recommend.

Appetizer, The Roasted Pear and Bacon Flatbread was delicious and a good sized portion at about 9 inches. Seared Scallop Caprese were very well cooked and delicious. Main Asiago-Crusted Alaskan Halibut and Sea Salt Accented Salmon, both with risotto were generous portions and well prepared. My wife commented the brocolinni was too salty. Dessert blue berry bread pudding with bumbleberry ice cream was a huge portion, very tasty. Apple crisp was a good portion and good flavour. Overall great experience. Our server Landon was very attentive and helpful in directing us for the best experience.

This place is so underrated. The food was so divine that I wanted to get seconds (except that it was also $40+ per entree). Would come back again. Beautiful decor and ambiance. Lovely view of the park from the table. Please get the King Salmon, Halibut and Bread Pudding. You won't regret it.

Toya was fantastic. She made excellent recommendations about menus selections. The king salmon was delicious. She encouraged me to go with the Pinot Noir chef recommended and I loved it. Our group had dessert that was delicious. Everything about her service was spectacular. Thank you so much. This entire establishment is filled with people who value great customer satisfaction.

Late Post Aug 23’ The King Salmon Restaurant requires a reservation so, I would suggest as soon as you arrive decide on an evening that you and your family/group want to dress up a bit (but don’t have to) and splurge then, reserve the table asap. The fam and I decided on a 3-course meal since it was our last evening here. I ordered the Coconut Crusted Halibut with Apricot Chutney, Prime Rib with Seasonal Vegetables and Potatoes and for dessert since I was so full my partner and I decided to share a Warm Apple Crisp and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. Let’s break it down… Coconut Crusted Halibut – Served with arugula, single spinach leaf under the chutney. The flavor was very sweet mixing the coconut and chutney didn’t pair entirely well. Since arugula has a peppery taste, it was supposed to offset the sweetness, I just feel this dish was missing something, a balsamic vinaigrette or chutney could’ve been a bit more savory? 2/5 Slow Roasted Prime Rib – Veggies and Potatoes mehhh cooked well but nothing to brag about… the prime rib tho was soooo damn good! Au jus not to salty and great creamy horseradish 4/5 Apple Crisp – The flavor wasn’t too bad on the crisp, TBH – Don’t remember only had one bite since I was sooo full! 3/5 Seared Scallop Caprese – (Partners App choice) This was delightful, scallops fresh and overall, the dish was well prepared. You should eat it all in one bite although, ok for example cut the scallop in half, grab a piece of cherry tomato, schmear a bit of balsamic, throw it in your mouth and toss in the ball of goat cheese! It was very good, although now that I think about it why didn’t they use mozz instead of goat cheese, I love goat cheese tho, my partner not very much…. 4/5

Nice restaurant, very beautiful inside and out. Three stars for food because the prime rib ordered as 'medium' was overdone and a bit tough. Then again, this is a fish restaurant not a steakhouse. Breakfast was good. Highly recommend making a reservation for dinner.

Visiting Denali and staying at the Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge (different review). The King Salmon Restaurant was good. Ask for a table with a view! Started with the Blueberry Mojito. The first one had way too much ice and not enough drink. The second one, I asked for less ice and it was much better. Needed more blueberries. I had the Green salad - it was good but a bit sweet. Too many craisins and the lingonberry dressing was sweet. But it was good. My daughter had the Caesar salad - the dressing was very garlicky (which we like). Had the Crab, shrimp and fish dip - it was good but had big chunks of seafood. I actually think it would have been better a little more blended so the flavors had a chance to meld. I had the Scallop and Goat Cheese “Caprese” (see photo). The scallops were very good, but I couldn’t call it Caprese. My daughter got the Salmon Chowder which was good. The service was good. A bit pricey.
