Dutch Harbor is not exactly on the way to anywhere (I was there for the Whiskered Auklets). The hotel has adequate rooms, fair to good service outside the dining room. But the FOOD!! I've done a lot of fine dining over the last 40 years including New York, New Orleans, Dallas and Europe and the food in the main dining room at The Grand ...

Views from the room are pretty, watery, birdy. Lobby is dramatic and I liked it in the morning for coffee and reading the paper. In the room, they were stingy with towels and washcloths, and we had to pester staff in January for more linens. But the big deal here is the FOOD. It is generous, beautiful, fresh, and delicious. Dining room service ...

Oh my goodness the food was top notch. Better than some high end places in D.C.
I go bak in a heartbeat.
