Red Dog Saloon 278 South Franklin Street, Juneau, AK 99801

"The famous Red Dog Saloon is a throw-back restaurant and bar taking you to the late 1800's, complete with sawdust-covered floors, old-time piano player, wooden furniture and chandeliers. The restaurant features the pistol owned by Wyatt Earp, who accidently left it in the building after checking it in at the door. This is proudly displayed on the wall. This place can get rather crowded during peak meal-times, especially when the cruise ships come in, so there may be a wait to get a table. The food was good, but service may be slow during peak times."

"We didn’t spend a lot of time here because our excursion ran late. Our friend is really into Scottie or Scottish dogs. We visited the merchandise store adjoining to the restaurant. The store itself looked well organized and had that old rustic cowboy theme to it. The prices were reasonable and the staff were friendly. We ventured into the restaurant briefly, and it to had old saloon feel. Staff were dressed as bar maidens from the old west. But was pretty smoky in there along with saw dust scattered on the floor throughout."

"You Must Go! Even with a queue make sure you get inside! It’s just so fun and the locals makes it so enjoyable! The decor is enough just to go inside and the beer is amazing! Old style saloon bar! If you want to visit something you see in the movies this is the place!"

"We were on an Alaskan cruise with friends and this place popped up as a place to go for a unique drink called a Duck Fart. We went in to give it a try. We were taken up stairs. The server was trying to moves some chairs to get our group together when we asked a question. She snapped back with a rude answer. Made me wonder if it is that type of service like Dick’s last resort or just her attitude. Anyhow as you enter you come into a well decorated and exciting environment. The floor is covered with thick sawdust and feels fun. Live music that is interactive with the crowd. Drinks were good and food was delicious. Glad we made a stop here. On the way out they make you exit through their merchandise area so be ready"

"Red Dog Saloon is located in the heart of Juneau and yes everyone talks about it, so if you are coming in and not wanting to wait long do some sightseeing or get there early. 10-1030am or after 2pm (time we arrived), we walked right in and got a table, it wasn’t where I wanted, located upstairs, it was small but sufficient for the 4 of us. Got the salmon cakes, sister-in-law ordered the fish and chips. First impression was, the food looked ok, the service great and the music awesome. I was quite surprised when I realized how delicious the salmon cakes were, they had great flavor and although the fish was panko crusted it tasted so fresh! I would recommend them if you are in the area also, check out their gift store!"
