Love the Noisy Goose! I had the Denver omelette - no peppers and well done. It came out just like I like it. Wonderful surprise was being able to order a slice of French toast for my bread. I've never been anywhere else that does that. Our server was very polite and fast. Our order came out quickly. We love this place and stop in when we are in the valley!
We stumbled upon this diner in our trip to Alaska and were not disappointed! The staff was super friendly and the food was delicious. There was a small wait for our table as the diner was busy, but we could definitely see why. The diner itself is decorated head to toe in all sorts of funny signs and eclectic decorations. The food had generous portions and was exactly the type of food I look for when going to a diner. We also tried a slice of pie at the end of the meal and had to make the tough choice from a huge list of flavors and can definitely say the pie is worth the try! The views from the diner are also gorgeous so if you are in the area, highly recommend this spot!
This is a regular place for me to visit whenever I'm in the area. The views of the mountains from the restaurant are amazing. The service has been great every time that I've visited. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the food. The food is good, however, I wouldn't say that it's to die for, but it's a good diner experience nevertheless. The prices are very reasonable as well.
In Alaska I would venture to say the Diner to person ration is 2:1. That said, when you stand out as one of the best, it really says something about your establishment! I previously rated this restaurant and I was off on that review. We've eaten here several times since and they're always on point, from the food to the service and overall busyness of this place. They're beyond consistent and I would wager to say they're near perfect when it comes to breakfast eats! Nothing over the top or trendy just good ol' fashion diner breakfast. Don't take that as a negative or a slight because this team knows how to serve quality food, that isn't often associated with diner food. Ask any local and I'll bet they have the same sentiments!
"Chicken salad" salad very good, they don't the candied walnuts anymore tho which really made the salad. Staff always very friendly. Love the senior breakfasts on the weekend!
After a camping trip in Alaska, we packed up our campsite and made a beeline for breakfast at this incredible restaurant Not sure if it's because I'm naturally indoors-y and it was my sweet relief after an uncharacteristically rugged weekend, but this is one of the very best meals I've had in my life. I ordered the chicken fried chicken and it far far exceeded my expectations and perhaps has the spot as my ideal breakfast The chicken fried chicken was a generous portion of chicken, topped with gravy, served with eggs, cooked your way and aside, I chose French toast. Although the French toast was nothing spectacular, the chicken with gravy was so incredibly flavorful and kind of changed my life The atmosphere was busy, but I found the booth seating to be very comfortable. The restaurant is decorated with funny sayings that gave us a chuckle while we waited for our food. The coffee was bottomless, and I was very happy that the waitress checked on us often to make sure our coffee cups were full. Highly recommend and would give more than five stars if I could
Great for breakfast or brunch with all the "normal" diner options (and I'm a huge fan of diners!). We had a great variety and all was great. We arrived at 2 PM, place was full. Had to wait @ 30 minutes for table for 6. When we arrived, And as we were being seated, it was stressed that they closed at 3. While we were eating (in a still full room), waitresses were refilling condiments and doing closing chores. We received several glares, attempts to remove plates with food still on them - which we were still eating and reluctance to refilling drinks. As a place to dine, in general I would recommend, but a little training in customer service might be in order. Being made to feel rushed and unwelcome is not conducive to repeat customers.
Great family restaurant that is a local favorite. Food was good and prices are reasonable. When you come in, sign your name in the waiting list. They are super busy during dinner time and strictly close on time. I had the halibut steak which comes with two sides. The fish was good and lightly seasoned. Fountain drinks comes with free refills.
Tip: sign yourself in at the front and wait to be seated. Food was great. Waitstaff were nice and helpful. I was up visiting my dad and we went twice while I was there. Code and halibut were very tasty!!! Highly recommend. My only complaint was having to look at dead animals while eating animal was a little strange, but that is a personal preference.
