Rooney's Northern Lights

You couldn't find a much better site for a restaurant than this one, sitting on pilings in Hammer Slough, overlooking a boat harbor. Call ahead to reserve one of the tables at the window or on the deck, where you can see Kupreanof Island, the fishermen working in the harbor, a cannery, and often waterfowl or seals or a sea lion. The evening menu includes steaks and halibut or shrimp, or you can order from inexpensive Mexican selections or burgers, sandwiches, and salads. There are healthy choices as well as heavy selections and a good children's menu. Breakfast is done well, with big skillets, eggs Benedict, and the like packing in the locals. The morning crowd rolls dice to see who pays for coffee.
