"Alaska is an expensive place and Skagway is no different; but when you go to a restaurant here, you at least hope you will get what you pay for. I think Olivia’s Bistro gives you just that. The halibut chowder (although at $18/bowl was more expensive than most we tried) was superb….a lot of halibut, and stand-up-spoon thick. I matched that up w a smoked salmon Caesar salad that was equally delicious…with a load of the best cuts of lettuce (not just a handful of partially wilted store bought greens), a wonderful home made dressing and a “school” of smoked salmon. The price was actually lower than any pre-made salad with a handful of chicken. Lastly my wife had “Bang bang” shrimp ….similar to the shrimp of the same name that Bonefish Grill made famous; BUT, this was made with 6 extra large battered shrimp in a very nice sauce. Again this appetizer (worthy of a meal) was priced very reasonably when compared to other app’s of much less quality. Overall, Olivia’s Bistro is a very very nice place…clean, attractive with great food worth the relatively reasonable prices. (NOTE: while we were there for a light late lunch, I can’t imagine the entrees wouldn’t be equally fantastic) You’ll feel like you struck Yukon gold with Olivia’s Bistro in the Skagway Inn."
