The sausage burrito is bangin! The sausage is ground up and you can taste that sage goodness. They put hash browns in there. Crispy. Done properly with cheese and egg. The salsa is a perfect sweet and savory matches perfectly. Staff seem really nice. The surrounding area is breathtaking. Gravy was good.

We visited for breakfast during Memorial Day weekend after seeing a friend post a photo of the Deckhand. My wife and I had the Deckhand, our teenage boy had the breakfast burrito. The food was fresh and hot. The Deckhand was good, neither my wife nor I were crazy about the onions. They were a bit soggy but powerful in onion flavor. I wish there had been a bit more of the sauce as the couple bites I had with less onion and more sauce were great. Our teen really liked the breakfast burrito. We will be back to try something else for breakfast tomorrow. There is only one table and no seating out of the rain. Fun to watch the boats in the harbor while eating. Overall, good food, you will enjoy.

Who knew the best breakfast stop in town opens up early enough to get food before you hit the water. We loved our food! VERY LOADED. We could have split our meal, so much good food!

I love the Porthole! It’s the most delicious breakfast in all of Seward. The view right by the harbor makes the short wait for their fresh food so enjoyable. Plus this is a business that REALLY shows how much they care about the local community through action.

One Glorious Breakfast Burrito

The Porthole Food Truck Review
1400 4th Ave, Seward Alska

My adventure this past weekend took me to Seward, Alaska — down a hole, you could say. The Porthole. After a long summer absence, I have returned to the land of reviews and crumbles.

I’ve got to say, I’ve been chasing this opportunity for some time now — mostly because they only do breakfast and lunch service. I’ve read many reviews and spoken to plenty of locals. Word on the street is: if you’re in Seward, you’ve got to slap yourself if you haven’t tried The Porthole’s Breakfast Burrito.

So here I was — a man with a stomach that only one thing could fill. Parked between Ray’s Waterfront Bistro and The Chinook Restaurant sits the little red food truck known as The Porthole. As we walked up, I was filled with excitement. It was finally happening.

Their menu isn’t large, but it offers some solid choices: from loaded biscuits & gravy, to mac & cheese, burgers, breakfast sandwiches, and of course—cough cough—El Grande. (Just kidding, it’s simply called the Breakfast Burrito.) I’ve been searching for a place that stands above all others in the burrito game. When it comes to finding a great breakfast burrito, here’s my criteria:

#1: Good seasoning.
#2: Even placement of every ingredient for that perfect bite all the way through.
#3: Properly cooked taters. Not soggy, not undercooked—we want that crispy crunch.
#4: Quality meat filler—whether bacon, sausage, or steak. Just don’t burn it or make it solid as a rock.
#5: Salsa & cheese.
#6: That little extra bit. What is that exactly? You’ll just know when you taste it. It’s love, my foodie family.

The owner of the truck was super friendly, and from start to finish we waited less than 10 minutes for our food. Good prices too! And this burrito was no taquito in the size department.

So here I went—full mouth, line, and sinker. WOWZA!!!

THE burrito not only slapped me—it hugged me. With every bite, it was a symphony of ingredient placement. The cheese, salsa, crispy taters (hashbrowns), eggs, and sausage were divine. The sausage left its mark. It came to say hellooooo! I didn’t want to finish it. I wanted that moment to last at least 9.5 minutes longer. But alas, I was one hungry boy, lol.

Miss Claire and I were blown away by The Porthole. I’ll say it: it’s the best burrito I’ve had on the entire peninsula in years. YEARS, I TELL YOU.

So here are my ratings:

Pricing: 8.5/10
Overall Service: 9.5/10
Flavor: 8.8/10

Would I InPorthole again? You bet your crumbs I would.
So until we meet again, my foodie family—

Catch you around the river bend!

With love and crumbs,
– Cory

The people here were THE BEST! The breakfast burrito was THE BEST! I cannot go somewhere and not get a burrito and this one was amazing. I waited around 15 minutes, so not super fast, but worth the wait.

Get the Deckhand it’s the best breakfast sandwich ever! People are super friendly. Not a lot of seating but how could you be upset when you can walk to the dock and eat breakfast with these views!

Had a quick breakfast here before going on a tour. The burrito was outstanding and very filling and full of flavor. The location was easy to find and service was fast and friendly. Definitely an easy place to get a quick tasty breakfast.

Food was good. It’s a food truck in a touristy area that caters to early morning riser and lunch. I loved my ribeye steak sandwich, perhaps a little small for $20. It had a peppery taste that I liked, not everyone would. My husband had a cubano and didn’t care for it. It wasn’t traditional. Deckhand sandwich was loaded with meat, was good.
Lady working at the window was very friendly.
They change the menu based on season. Sadly, no Mac and cheese today.
Solid sandwich options.

A+++ breakfast! I had the Stuff Your Porthole (in the cup). It was a lot to eat, but delicious! My son got the Haburrito and he said it was amazing! My daughter enjoyed her Nutella Croissant. They do charge a 20% fee to use a credit card and like everywhere else in Seward they charge tax. Only outside tables to sit at like most places in Seward. Staff was friendly and made great recommendations. Hours 4:30am to 1:00pm daily except Wednesday’s 5:00am to 1:00pm.
