Amazing!!! Recommended by 2 Uber drivers. Pizza is amazing. Love the creative flavor profiles and the classic pepperoni. The desserts were a delight. Rachel took care of us. Loved the whole experience. Yum! 10/10 recommend.

Pizza was excellent, and their rotational cocktail (strawberry based during our visit) was a pleasant surprise. The Hungarian mushroom was also really good. We were a group of 16, and the staff managed to accommodate us within 10 minutes of waiting — very impressive service! Highly recommend for both food and hospitality.

When we told friends and family we were traveling to Alaska, there was a common theme: go to Moose's Tooth! We had to cut our trip here short for an emergency, but had a few hours in Anchorage. We decided to have a lunch here and we're not disappointed! While the food and beer are definitely off the charts, the people are what makes this place so amazing. Julia was our server and really brightened our day in a way we can't even describe. Her energy boosted our spirits while the amazing food nourished our souls. I wish we could take this place back with us to Texas. It will forever be on our hearts.

A very busy place! Was told it would be a 40 minute wait. Love that you can grab a drink and wait on the patio around the fire pit while you wait. The wait ended up only being 20 minutes. Our waitress was very friendly. Loved that they do 1/2 &1/2 pizzas. We tried the carnivore, the classic, call of the wild and chicken bacon ranch. The pizza crust is very good! The chicken bacon ranch was our least favorite. The root beer is crisp and delicious! Tried the pineapple upside cheesecake was disappointed that it lacked pineapple flavor. Overall would recommend and come back!

This place lives up to the hype—and then some. We tried three different pizzas, each totally unique and absolutely delicious. From bold flavor combos to perfectly chewy crusts, every slice was a win. The menu is full of creative options, and honestly, it was hard to choose (not a bad problem to have). Each pizza brought something different to the table, and there wasn’t a single bite we didn’t love. It’s easy to see why this place is a local favorite. Great vibes, fun atmosphere, and pizza that’ll haunt your dreams in the best way. Pro tip: Come hungry and bring friends so you can try more than one!

Dinner on a weeknight, seated after a very short wait. I had heard about Moose’s Tooth before even arriving in Alaska so I knew I had to try them! I was not disappointed! Ordered a pizza for the table to enjoy and it met expectations. The crust was perfectly cooked and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. Our server was friendly and attentive. Already planning a return visit before departing Alaska! I highly recommend Moose’s Tooth!!

pretty good! Pizza was *one* of the best I’ve had, easily top 3. I had a small pizza—1/2 carnivore and 1/2 firehouse. Crust was delicious. Cobbler was alright too, very filling. Pretty popular spot so this was actually the second time I tried to come here, since the wait time yesterday was very long. After being recommended at least once a day since I’ve been here, I think it’s definitely worth it. My server was amazing with her recommendations and in giving personal dish preferences. Stellar service!

I went to kawaii nail bar for the first time together with a friend. It’s her regular place. I was hesitant to go, because I’ll be the first to tell you I’m very picky. I get the same French tip but it’s hard to find a nail tech that gets the lines just the way I like. My pedicure was pretty close to perfect. Was a little more expensive than other places, but it’s not a big deal if the service is good. It was $94 plus tip. I started to feel so sleepy and relaxed. The water warmed up multiple times throughout my service. The chair massagers were nice, not too rough or too soft. Just right. There are a lot of other compliments I could give their staff and shop, but it would be easier to just give them a shot yourself.

Clean well cared for mall on the smaller side but a decent selection of stores.

I can't understand why this mall doesn't do better considering it's location. It's like a ghost town and has been for a long time. The REI store or Planet Fitness have more people in it than the entire mall. Most people seem to go to the Dimond Mall which is full of good stores and restaurants. Since there are so many businesses in midtown, this mall should be doing better.

It's still a good place to stop in, and Shop Mall isn't quite full yet, but there has been progress I noticed, and REI is the bomb😁

Midtown Mall is a nice place to shop and relax in Anchorage. It has a good variety of stores, a few great spots to eat, and plenty of parking. The place is clean, safe, and not too crowded — perfect for a quick stop or a casual shopping day!

Midtown Mall is a small shopping mall (think of it as an overgrown strip mall) with a variety of stores including Carrs (Safeway), REI, Lens Crafters, and a Planet Fitness.

This place has a good food court gamestop.Plenty of places to buy clothes, games and shoes.I like this place a lot

Visited twice during our 3 day land excursions. One for a quick lunch. The next time as a shortcut to our downtown destination. We had panini sandwiches at a cake bakery. They were very good other than that are not made to order, so no mustard, no mayo wasn't an option. That forced us to go to the food court upstairs for one of our party. The mall itself seemed clean as well as the restrooms. With the number of homeless in the area it still felt clean and safe.

It's a great mall nice and spacious until you go into a store. I personally like the JCPenney's and Ian's Game Paradise! The mall tends to be pretty clean and there are public bathrooms. There's an elevator for handicapped people to get up and down between the stores. The food court is lacking tho I'd eat before going or after.

Seems to be struggling to stay afloat. Closed stores, minimal staff, and the exterior is looking rough. There is a food court on the top floor (with local vendors but no fast food staples), but with some of the escalators shut down and only one elevator working, it can be interesting getting up there with out a wait.

Well I think the 5th Avenue is mall is good. It has stores like AT&T,MK, Victoria Secret, Steak Restaurant, Eddie Bauer and even Aunt Annie's. However you have to pay to use the parking plaza and it is $2.00 after an hour and keeps going up in increments of two's. How is one to truly enjoy this mall if all there money is spent on parking. Furthermore, is there anyway the stores could validate the parking once you have made purchases inside the mall? Just a question.

There’s a decent number of shops but the food court is a little bare. Cake (a dessert place) was delicious! Restrooms overall are clean.

It’s a mall. Loved the fact there was a jewelry watch repair shop here that was able to tell me they can repair a watch I bought in the early 90’s. Been here a few times. Nothing else fancy that stands out.

The mall is really nice! Cool stores and restaurants, well used to be a subway but closed down, I would put five stars but due to the fact it’s in literally the downtown where all the homeless are, I gave it a four, but it’s a good mall no matter what.

I did the deluxe tour and it was a great experience. Ace was my tour guide and he had a lot of knowledge about the area as well as the history of the area. It was enjoyable to learn about the history and fun facts about Anchorage. Highly recommend doing the deluxe tour over the one hour tour that's offered.

This was a great way to explore Anchorage while my grandsons were in school. It was a little misty, soft rain that morning, but we had squeegee’s for our windows and the operator was wonderful. I was just visiting this time and I learned a lot more than I thought I would about Anchorage. Our guide knew exactly what to say. Had a wonderful speaking voice and quite informed. Thank you for making my day.

When in Anchorage you must do this one hour ride. They have two options- the one hour or the 1.5-2 hour ride. I recommend the one hour ride. It is VERY informative, fun and you get to know Anchorage a lot more. The history of the earthquake, how the name came about, the undergrund house, the high school with the history, etc. A fun way to see Anchorage and know about its history, totally a must do!!!

Very informational, fun tour for the entire family. Our guide was super friendly. You get to learn about the history of Anchorage, 1964 earthquake, Moose calls, etc. Highly recommend it. You don’t walk at the places with $25 ticket. If you are interested in longer version of this tour, it would cost you $50. So, plan and book appropriately.

I enjoyed the tour and what I learned about the City of Anchorage. I might have opted for the two hour tour if I would have had the time! Our driver/guide was wonderful; the perfect amount of wisdom and wit! The trolley itself was comfortable, very clean and safe. There was only one brief stop for photos - so check to see if the two hours allows for more photo stops. As a travel designer it’s important that I experience tours of this nature. Happy to share that this tour provides a quick, informative and interesting perspective on Anchorage and one you are sure to enjoy.

The one hour tour is great value! My friends who did it shared interesting facts with me that weren't mentioned on my tour and they got to see moose! However, I did the Deluxe Tour since there would be more time for taking photos. I'm not sure it was worth twice the cost overall. I was sad to not see any moose. Nice to know that restrooms/portapotties were available at most stops. Tips: Mondays are slow days for watching seaplanes/float planes. Weekends are best. Mosquitos love Earthquake Park.

Ace was a wonderful tour guide and we enjoyed our tour immensely. He volunteered to take pictures for us at every stop. He told great stories of the history and all the locals. We enjoyed watching the fishermen from the bridge and being able to kind of see Mt McKinley in the distance and all the other stops!

This is a famous breakfast place in Anchorage. You can call in and get your name on the waiting list which is a great idea. Went there on a Sunday and it was really crowded. We literally waited almost 2 hours for a table.! Weather for breakfast, but really ate lunch. Went there for the crab Benedict and it did not disappoint. It was absolutely amazing. Huge portions, especially the hashbrowns. Dee was our server and she was amazing and incredibly cute. The hostess staff were incredibly patient, considering the stress of how crowded it was and how many people were waiting. They will call or text you when your name comes up if you leave your phone number.

I was recommended this place while in town. I have found the food in Anchorage to be hit or miss… This was a hit. I came in during a breakfast rush on a Friday. The wait was long, so I scoped out the counter area and when a couple people left, I grabbed a seat. The service was fast. They made me a delicious latte that was served quickly as I mulled over my breakfast choices. I chose the biscuits and gravy, hash browns, and a side of bacon. Even the orange they used as a garnish was delicious! The biscuits and gravy were a perfect texture and had a good amount of biscuit to gravy. The hashbrowns and bacon were both excellent. I had left leftovers and heated them up for lunch later in the day and the biscuits were still great!

Very popular at breakfast time. We did not have to wait for a table, but it got busy quick. The food was delicious. Service was great. The atmosphere was fun and quirky.

Such a fun vibe! The staff here is incredible and super friendly. The food is top notch! If you are in Anchorage and looking for a breakfast/brunch spot.....make time to come. Get on the wait list or definately have time....we were here a couple of times during our week in Anchorage and saw up to 45-ish min of wait and other times just sat right down. We had coffees from here a few times and breakfast that was fresh and so tasty. The stuffed French toast with berries...I nearly licked the plate...we also got the egg Benny with a bonus stack that was just yummy Yummy Yummy! Every bite was tasty!

Snow City Café absolutely lives up to its reputation as Anchorage’s #1 brunch spot! I stopped in for breakfast and quickly realized why the place was packed so reservations are definitely the way to go. I sat at the counter and had the pleasure of being served by Deenju, who was fantastic in helping with selections (though, let’s be honest, when it comes to sticky buns, how much encouragement does one really need?). I tried the half-and-half Benedict, one classic and one with smoked salmon, and while both were delicious, the smoked salmon Benedict was hands-down my favorite. The sticky bun was a must, rich and gooey, and worth every bite. The hardest part of the morning was simply deciding what to order, because the entire menu looked incredible. The energy inside was upbeat, the service top-notch, and the food outstanding. If you’re in Anchorage, this place is a can’t-miss. I’d say it was love at first bite and the start of a beautiful friendship.

Great food, great Mimosas, and great atmosphere. Mariah was our favorite! ALWAYS smiling and so friendly and professional. She's an employee every company would dream to have. Take care of her- she's a keeper! Be prepared to wait. What many people I think didn't realize is when the bar opens up you can sit there first come - first served. We were on the list to wait at least an hour but as soon as the bar opened up we sat right down. We also got their delicious coffee while we waited as they also have a coffee bar in the waiting area. So far, the best place we've found for breakfast in Anchorage. I'm told during the summer there's a line around the block to get in so we got lucky coming in late September!

Food is absolutely delicious. It’s a popular breakfast place in town, and very busy. Would not recommend if you are looking for quick service. Got the polar bear dish with French toast and Canadian maple bacon.

Our tour guide was batting 1000 with his restaurant recs and this one was no different. Started with the duck fat fries and asked for them to be extra crispy!!!! Perfect and full of flavor!!! Main was their belgian waffle with chicken tenders and a scoop of pineapple-coconut ice cream!!! This is what heaven must be like!!! The ice cream paired beautifully with the chicken and waffle. Pure bliss!!! Service was excellent too despite the restaurant being crazy busy with all the tour groups!!

We did not have reservation but immediate seating. Order was taken quickly and food was served quickly. Not sure if the Pilsner was brewed there or not, but it was very good. Highly recommend. Cod was good/fresh and the batter was nice and thin. Lost a star because the fries had way too many ends & pieces. See pic.

Came with a party of four and we were able to be seated right away which was great considering this was on a holiday weekend. Ordered burgers and the short ribs with shrimp and grits. The two year old in our party said it was the best food she’d ever had. We enjoyed the anchorage style burgers with the jalapeño bacon. Short ribs were pretty good. Also had a hazy IPA which was good. Nothing mind-blowing food wise but overall we all agreed we would dine there again.

This was a very pleasant surprise. What seemed like just a mall restaurant turned out to be a nice, cozy place with a great menu and tap list. The tap list was all Alaska craft beer, a nice chance to try beer from breweries I didn't expect to be able to visit. I had a hazy from Black Spruce Brewing in Fairbanks that was excellent. If I had not been full from my excellent dinner, a spare rib poutine, I would have explored more. Service was good, but not top notch as the server did not really know the beers when my wife asked. But she was still fast and very pleasant, so it is understandable. I would return here.

This is my new favourite place in downtown anchorage. Good selection of beer. Decent price. Clean & modern bar. Bright. I didn’t order any food this time but it looks good. Will try some on my next visit for sure.

We did not eat here but really enjoyed the draft beers. Loved the IPAs and the heavy porter. Also, the story behind the name and location is quite interesting. That classic (ancient) cash register behind the bar is also very cool. The T-Shirts/swag is also cool so I bought one for ~$20 ! VictorB

Tent City Taphouse is quite the hidden gem! Stopped here on a whim for a quick lunch and was not disappointed. As a lover of sour beers, it was awesome to see the vast selection of sour beers available. The food was immaculate as well. We ordered the Chowder and Pelmeni to start, which were both amazing. For entrees we ordered the Halibut & Chips and Beef Tips, both of which were delicious! Our server, Kayli went above and beyond to make our experience great! Kayli even offered samples of two of the sour beers when I was torn between choices. Overall, if you’re considering a place with great food, great drinks, and quality service - definitely consider Tent City Taphouse!

I started with the fried brie, and it was fantastic. Took most home so I could eat my meal. 2nd, I had the beet salad, was unimpressed - the beets were to be roasted, they tasted canned; too much basil oil- would not get again. Lastly, I got the 1/2 order halibut cheeks over risotto. I highly recommend it! Full of flavor, took most of that home as well. If possible, the leftovers were even better the next day. My husband got the fish and chips, he said the halibut was great. Service was good. We called ahead for a table. They were busy.

The Calamari Steak was a true masterpiece—perfectly pan-seared and topped with a delightful tomato and herb Béarnaise sauce, which paired wonderfully with the garlic bread! The pan-seared Halibut cheeks, lightly dusted and served on a rich pancetta and pea risotto, were also extraordinary. Adding lemon brown butter, fragrant basil oil, and a zesty Balsamic reduction created an incredible flavor explosion with every bite! And let’s not forget the lemon cheesecake—it’s an absolute game-changer in desserts! What an incredible dining experience!

We chose Kinley's for our weekly date night and thoroughly enjoyed it starting with perfectly executed martini's (bartender pictured!)! I had the raw oysters which were deliciously briny and Blake had the Oysters Rockafeller which were decadently perfect. We both had the house salad and mine was topped with the best pan seared piece of halibut I've ever eaten. Blake had the duck with risotto and a medley of veggies and rice. Highly recommend this restaurant for quality and good value.

Very nice restaurant with a cozy atmosphere. Everything was very good and I would recommend this place if your ever in Anchorage.

The food was phenomenal. Not sure what else to say. There is a genuine chef and we were served an amazing meal. I do love the food here and it is more than a worthwhile stop when you are in town. To caveat this, I am an Alaskan local. If halibut cheeks are on the menu, I highly recommend.

I like how creative the menu is at kinley's. And the bartenders make good cocktails. The staff is great. I've always had excellent service when going to this restaurant. I've been there with friends, with kids but not very often with kids. I have also headed there for an early dinner before heading home after work. I enjoy the atmosphere. I love their calamari. The halibut cheeks and risotto were delicious!! I also enjoyed the duck! I've never had their burgers but my friend's son got it and he ate the whole burger!! He said it was great! We finished dinner with the pecan torte!! OMG! It was so good. I love how beautiful it was on the plate. Food presentation is excellent at kinley's. If you like that kind of thing. I do. I love how food is displayed. Also I like their French onion soup. I forgot to take a picture of the French onion soup and the calamari.

Great meal, flavors were all spot on. The hummus with the fried pita was very well done. The French onion soup was solid, both the cheeks and almond encrusted halibut were on point. The red sauce really is what took the almond encrusted to the next level. Desert was the truffle cake. Darn good. Could use a little more of the raspberry sauce but really hit the spot with a little coffee.

UMMMM SO GOOD!!!! These tacos were incredible. Absolutely get the halibut tacos street style - you will not regret it. My tip - You have to pay extra for salsa and probably don't need it. Only negative for this place is that the smoke from the smoker may blow directly at you while waiting for food and eating given where it's placed. Overall, HIGHLY recommend

We kind of happened upon this little gem by accident. We were hungry, pressed for time and saw the smoker outside and people happily waiting around. So glad we did!. We got the salad with chicken and a breakfast quesadilla with halibut and eggs. Everything was soooo fresh. The salsa that came with the quesadilla was sooooo delicious. Nice big portions and super friendly staff! If you happen to be in Anchorage... this place is a must eat while you are here!

Delicious tacos and burritos, both the standard street tacos we all know and love as well as some inventive twists. Halibut tacos were amazing! The smoke from the BBQ smelled soooo good too. Not a ton of seating and it's all outdoor.

Wow, very tasty Mexican food at a good price. I got the Mex plate with pork which was delicious. They have their own smoker just outside where they were smoking all their meat. After I ordered I saw them tending to the smoker, next time I'll try the brisket for sure!

Yummy tacos, burrito and other Mexican street food in a outdoor setting. Everything is self service from queuing up for ordering to collecting your meal and to clear your own table if you're having your meal at their outdoor tables.

Everything about this place is amazing! Just being available for summer only makes it a novelty experience. Everyone needs to visit Alaska at least once in their life and I’d say the same thing about El Green-Go’s

El Green Go's Mexican restaurant is one of the highlights of an afternoon of walking or biking in Anchorage. Don't be fooled by the size of the place. They serve big flavor in every dish. Tried the Street Tacos (Salmon and Halibut), Nachos with Brisket and the Burrito and all were fresh, flavorful and well prepared. And the portions will cure any appetite. They are very ample portions. The service was fast and friendly and our selections were accurate. The atmosphere was quaint with just a few tables but a great chance to eat in a community style and sit with folks you meet. But the restaurant is just steps from the waterfront where you can take your food and eat with a view. Parking can be challenging if you're there during the week. But on the weekend, street parking is free. The menu is good for adults and children.

Cozy atmosphere, attentive workers, great music that fits the setting, tasty cocktails. Food as A1! This is what fresh seafood tastes like. My husband has surf and turf with crab. I have the smoked salmon pasta. We shared appetizers. So delicious, nothing disappointed. Thank you for a great experience!

This place sounds like it would be a fine dining experience by the name and the storefront; however, it is a surprisingly casual establishment. This worked in my favor because I had been hiking all day and still had my boots on. This place has close to fine dining prices though. We had the halibut and chips and the daily special which was blackened fresh halibut with rice and a strawberry salsa. The food was great overall though the daily special seemed somewhat lacking in flavor for the price of $50. The presentation was great as well as the textures, freshness, and portion size. I don’t think it was blackened enough maybe? The flavor was like strawberry scented air. The halibut and chips however was excellent. It’s hard to go wrong with fried food but the batter was on point. The service was also top notch. Our waitress was knowledgeable and timed her follow ups well. We did not wait an unreasonable amount of time on our food. The main downside is the layout. If you don’t have a reservation, they put you in a “walk in” table or the bar. They are right next to each other. I do not really ever want to wrap up my day in close proximity to drunk people. We had to share our walk in table with another couple who only stayed for drinks. They eventually started making out with each other at the table. The couple at the other walk in table across from me were so drunk they were spilling the menus on the floor. The walk in tables have six chairs each which don’t leave much elbow room, so it was an uncomfortable experience.

This is my new go-to date night restaurant! The atmosphere is warm with lights not too bright and clean. Good for fancy date nights or celebrations. I cant say enough about the food! Very delicious! We had oysters and bread for an appetizer and it was fresh and tasty! We also had ribeye, it was juicy and tender. For dessert we had melted chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Everything was worth our money! Give it a try you will not regret.

This is a must try if you are visiting Anchorage! My family and I decided to go here since it was on DDD and the food was incredible. The spicy chicken gnocchi and creole dip were our favorites. Our server was an absolute gem and was incredibly attentive and helpful, especially since we were unable to make reservations ahead of time (highly recommend getting a reservation though). The lemon drop cocktail is also delicious!

Was kind of in a rut restaurant wise so decided to shake things up and try Haute Quarter Grill. Man oh man was it good. My wife loved her mango mojito, and she never drinks. The crab spinach artichoke dip was insane. The halibut fish and chips was delicious. The batter was light yet flavorful. I had the special (filet with bernaise sauce and king crab meat) and I loved it. The peanut butter pie was the best I've had maybe ever. Server was attentive and friendly. I'll definitely frequent this place!

The food was absolutely delicious. The menu was the perfect length and mix of options. Our waitress was so very helpful and professional. We had four in our party and we had three apps: oysters (favorite ones were the strawberry), crab and artichoke dip, and ahi tuna. We all tried each and couldn't agree on our favorite because we loved them all. For dinner, two of us had the night's special, halibut catch of the day and they thought their meal was amazing. One of us had the filet shish kabob and I had the blackened prime rib. These meals were cooked by professionals who knew what they were doing. Our only complaint would be that they started putting chairs up before we were finished, which we thought was unprofessional when in an otherwise top knotch place.

Great time at Huate! Food was great and King crab was even better! It was perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. This was our first time in Alaska and although we wanted to try more king crab, this definitely didn't disappoint. Our server Rome was also fantastic. Super energetic, funny, and on point.

I’ve always loved this place — not only as somewhere to bring out-of-town guests, but also for a fun day trip with my daughter and her friends. The mission behind the center is truly meaningful, and I really appreciate that the animals are kept in large, natural, and humane enclosures. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and clearly care about the work they do. It’s a wonderful experience every time we visit!

I really want to give this place 5 stars but there were some issues that kept me from doing so. First they had hours posted. I arrived just at opening time and the gates were closed. Myself along with a few other vehicles waited at the gate for about 20 minutes. Finally a car came and told us they would not be opening until 12:30. So I left and came back. Upon coming back I was greeted by a friendly person at the toll booth. I paid my fare and entered. The first thing I noticed were a lot of the exhibits were vacant. Not sure if it was the time of year or if they had lost or removed some of the animals. I watched the crew feed bears and that was great and absolutely the highlight of the trip. In all I would say it took me about 40 minutes to see everything including the 15 minutes or so I spent watching the bear feeding. It was neat but don’t think I’d come back.

The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is an absolute gem! Watching bears roam freely in their natural habitat was breathtaking, and seeing coyotes, caribou, and other native animals up close made the experience unforgettable. The center is beautifully maintained, educational, and truly dedicated to wildlife preservation. A must-visit for anyone exploring Alaska!

Had higher expectations in terms of number of bears and moose we will get to see here but turned out to be not as great as we expected. We thought of the entrance fee as a donation for the care of the amazing animals they have. We did not see a bull moose which was our main goal. We did get see musk ox and lynx which were quite cool.

I did the Walk on the Wild Side tour as a birthday gift to myself, and it was amazing! Ivie was a great, knowledgeable guide who was able to help me spot well hidden animals. Knowing each animals story made the visist even better. Learning about their conservation efforts through the visist gave me more insight as well. AND I got to feed Twix the porcupine! I cannot recommend this center enough. I highly recommend a tour- it gives you so much more insight to how this center is helping not only their animals, but the Wood Bison population in Alaska.

Amazing place to see wildlife up close. Despite the rainy day, everything was very accessible by car, with a few spots where we hopped out for a closer look. Gift shop is really quite nice and had a wide variety of gifts for anyone to find something. Great experience! Will go back!

Very nice visit, the park can be walked as well as driven. Though walking offers a much better chance to see the animals. We were very lucky and saw both black bears within two hours of our arrival. (The walking route when done fully and slower to watch for the animals takes about an hour and 45 minutes).

Went to use the Nordic spa and Massage, some of it was under Constuction during my time, however, I know that they’re just getting that all ready for the ski season. The service in most of the in-house establishments felt like end of the summer season exhaustion for most of the servers. The meals at forte were very good. The rooms are standard on the seventh floor, but had one facing the mountain, which was nice.getting the local rate was a big plus as I may not have purchased what I received at full visitors price. All in all it was a nice experience!

Needs some serious updating and repairs. Everyone was kind and took great care of us. Parking wasn't great. And I didn't really appreciate seeing ni***r written in dust on the window, but not to worry, I cleaned it off for them. Prices are outrageous. One employee told us she's been there for 20 years and has been begging for a raise for YEARS and they just finally gave her a 25 cent raise... with their prices, surely they can do better than that. There's plenty to love about it, but I do have my complaints. It was a one and done for us. Nice to experience, but we won't be back. Not until the property reflects the pricing.

Booked for mid-October. To start, the service and food at the 2 open restaurants was great. The other side: There was no disclaimer when booking months out that everything was going to be closed, including the pool, hot tub, tram, and the majority of restaurants. For the high price paid, I would expect more out of a business model and making customers at least aware of all closures when booking. Also, some thermostats are “not working” according to the front desk, so the room stayed hot regardless of thermostat setting. Overall, just not what I would expect for $300+ per night.

What an exhilarating experience here at Alyeska resort. The stay here was amazing! The Mountain view from the room was breath taking. My only ding with this hotel was them not updating the website. My only reason for picking this resort was because of the amenities and they were closed due to the off season. I wish they had a microwave in the room because there restaurants close at 10pm and I had to drive out to Anchorage for food after getting off a late flight day one. The reindeer sausage was the best thing on the breakfast menu at Forte but I fell like the food at the place was not quite fresh and everything tasted rushed even though it was off season. I will certainly be coming back the next time when it’s in season so I can participate more of the snow activities.

Alyeska Resort is nothing short of spectacular. From the breathtaking mountain views to the luxurious accommodations, everything about this place feels like a dream. The resort perfectly blends upscale comfort with the wild beauty of Alaska. The tram ride to the top is a must!! The views are jaw-dropping, and the experience is unforgettable. The on-site dining was fantastic, with fresh, high-quality meals and excellent service. The staff throughout the resort were warm, professional, and made us feel truly welcomed. Whether you’re here for skiing, hiking, relaxing at the spa, or just soaking in the scenery, Alyeska delivers a glowing experience.

Nice hotel as part of Holland America land portion of cruise. Understand it's a great ski resort for other half of the year. Good hiking available right outside the door or take the ski gondola to the top. Large bull moose in the pond when we were there. Free shuttle service around town was really convenient.

This place sucks! There is no luxury here and the people who work here seem not to care or respond to customer issues. All I wanted was heat and to watch my TV shows while there for a conference. I sat in a room for over two hours waiting for it to heat up to over 67 degrees. I got the run around only to find out maintenance never turned the on heat even after I called several times. They even said they would send a maintenance person who never came. I finally requested a new room but was smart enough to go check it before moving all my stuff. It was even colder than my original room at 62 degrees and the thermostat only went up to 70. So don’t stay here if you want to be warm. Like the other reviews said “They clearly don't care about maintenance and have no pride in their building”. Wallpaper is still peeling off the walls. Walls in hallways and elevators still have scuff marks and scrapes from what I assume was luggage carts.

Hiked up and got a free ride down. The 2000 foot elevation gain is no joke. Took me 2 hours to go 2 miles but so glad I did it. Awesome views, picked salmon berries for the first time, lunch was delicious and the ride down in the tram delightful. We even saw a wedding party going to the top. Would have preferred no rain but didn’t let that stop us. Bucket list checked✔️

Gorgeous views from top of mtn. Tram was fun. Expensive rode to the top. Trail at the top tp the suspended bridges were closed. Nice staff. Spectacular views. Great trails. Save 5.00 per ticket if purchased online.

The Alyeska Aerial Tram is a fantastic experience. The views on the way up and at the top are unbelievable! It was $78 for 2 as hotel guests. We rode the tram up and hiked the way back down. We couldn't recommend this experience highly enough. It was well worth the price of admission.

Beautiful scenery. Breathtaking views. Not a lot of people for as busy as it was. Lots of trails to hike. Lots of food options. Awesome little gift shop. Definitely do the done and ride option as you get more money to spend at the food places.

While this was an awesome experience and the Roundhouse museum was neat I'm not sure we got our money's worth with the tram. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend the tram for small children or family members with limited mobility. It's about a 4-5 minute ride up it's not shaky or wobbly except at one spot and the staff warn you. The views are amazing! But I got some pretty amazing views at state parks for $5, too.

Worth every dollar! Views are unparalleled with mountains, glaciers and lakes. We lucked out with low traffic and high visibility day!

Must visit. Fantastic views from tram and on top. Bar restaurant on top. Could have spent more time soaking up views and having drinks in Adirondack chairs.

Neat pull off on the Seward highway. Occasionally you can see marine wildlife in the turnagain arm or goats on the cliffs of the mountains. It offers great views of the mountains. You will need to walk around and go across the train tracks to get the better views. There are steep inclines so it isn’t entirely safe for small children. The views are vastly different from summer to winter.

Stopped at Beluga Point, great views of the mountain range across the water. Behind you can sometimes see sheep/goats (we did not). Good spot for some selfies too. It is a pull off paved parking spot and we stopped during the week so it was not busy.

Beluga Point is an absolutely beautiful scenic viewpoint located along the Seward Highway, offering stunning views of Turnagain Arm and the surrounding Chugach Mountains. Is located about 25 minutes from downtown Anchorage, Alaska and is a popular spot for wildlife viewing, particularly for beluga whales, which can often be seen swimming in the waters below. Absolutely breathtaking views from this area. There are binoculars available as well as an information plaque about beluga whales. Parking is free. There are no park benches or picnic tables here. Definitely worth stopping and taking pictures and videos. This point highlights the beauty of the Alaska coast and landscape.

Sunrise and sunset is when you want to be here! Beautiful, breathtaking, unforgettable ❤️!!! When looking for the whales 🐋 watch for something floating on the water but not going with the flow. Be patient 🙏 and you will see them break the water. I am pretty sure they sleep in this area at night and go further out during the day. Make sure you schedule the whole day just taking it all in. It is just a 30ish mile stretch but the hours quickly slip by. And please put your phone down for once and dont look at the scenery through the lense. Be in the moment. Breathe the air, feel the sun, smell the ocean, see the world, remember the moment!

Such a beautiful stop along Seward Highway! Not far from Anchorage. The views are breathtaking and there are places to walk along the rocks and near the water. Perfect place to get some really great photos!

Simply amazing and beautiful location. The views are jawdroping. The most convenient for all drivers going there is the fact that you can park in miltiple areas along the highway 🛣 . The Beluga point also has parts where drivers can read what is about that point. Very recommended 👌

One of my favorite places to go just right out of town. Lots of places you can hike around this area. But you need to go to the opposite side of Beluga to get into the hiking and climbing. Some of the most amazing views are in this area and it's literally just 15 minutes outside of Anchorage. I highly recommend!

I don’t know how this state park got anything less than 5 stars but it is definitely worth your time. Accessibility can be the only thing I can think of. The state park is huge and a big portion of it isn’t accessible. The parts that are, are absolutely stunning. Multiple hiking trails, camping areas, picnics, photo opportunities, and scenic views throughout. If you like the outdoors and stunning scenery, this park has what you’re looking for. You can do almost anything here as there are ample hunting and fishing locations. This is a photographers dream! The nature center in Eagle River tops it off as the best state park I e ever been in. I visit here as often as I can.

Chugach State Park is a stunning natural expanse surrounding Anchorage, encompassing over 495,000 acres of rugged mountains, glaciers, alpine lakes, and dense forests. Its proximity to the city makes it both accessible and wild, offering photographers and outdoor enthusiasts a chance to experience Alaska’s dramatic landscapes without venturing deep into remote backcountry. The park’s trails cater to all levels, from short scenic hikes to challenging climbs such as Flattop Mountain, which rewards visitors with sweeping panoramas of Anchorage, Turnagain Arm, and the surrounding Chugach Range. Lakes and rivers throughout the park provide reflections of snow-capped peaks, creating spectacular compositions for landscape photography. Wildlife abounds, including moose, bears, eagles, and mountain goats, giving photographers opportunities for wildlife shots in a natural setting. Seasonal changes dramatically transform the park: winter blankets the peaks and trails in snow, summer brings vibrant wildflowers and verdant forests, and autumn paints the valleys in rich golds and reds. Chugach State Park is a perfect blend of accessibility, rugged wilderness, and photographic potential, making it an essential destination for capturing the essence of Alaska’s majestic beauty.

Beautiful state park right next to Anchorage! The valleys and mountains are impressive in size and easy to navigate!!! Plenty of parking and easy to pay!

Went wild blueberry picking here and it was terrific! Lots of blueberries 🫐 everywhere! Such a beautiful area. Easy to get to and accessable paths to different areas so you can spread out and enjoy larges spaces to pick blueberries. We came late in the season and there was still plenty to be picked.

Went to the Glen Alps trailhead for the viewing - spectacular! I understand that Denali might be viewed, under the right conditions. Not so for me, but I had a great view of the volcanoes to the west.

This park is one of the largest, I believe, in the country. We drove along the Seward Highway viewing beautiful country with high majestic mts some glaciated. There's so much water in Alaska, it's wonderful.

The Turnagain Arm of the Cook Inlet south of Anchorage is one of the most spectacular places to visit on a sunny day that I have ever visited. It is about thirty miles of each vista being better than the last. Fortunately, there are lots of turnouts where you can stop to take photos. There aren't many other amenities, at least along the road. There are a couple of gas stations near Girdwood and Girdwood is worth a stop.

A bit rundown, but worth visiting during the Fur Rendezvous weekend. Indigenous artists showcased incredible arts and crafts—rich in culture, tradition, and heritage. As a non-Alaskan, it was eye-opening. The galleria also has a few eateries and an ice rink.

Concern about security staff behavior. Was their for a couple hours running errands and getting food and originally pentesting mall digital security. Noticed the female security with colored hair was surrounded by highschool boys, in the food court and walking as well as sitting for extrend d period of time at the second floor bathroom hall above the ice rink. Kids talking about their parents as I walked by. If they are not kids then it's just bad employee behavior. Either way. Security needs work. Both physically and digitally.

Nice and good mall, we went to gift store and it is definitely good collection. Got restaurants and massage place. This mall also got ice skating. Best part is it is indoor mall. So rain or snow, good one to go for

I was born in Anchorage 5 decades ago. This is the Best mall we have and always has been, 2 others have closed, Diamond Center grows. Visit your friends in seating and dining areas, have a meal at various restaurants and in the food court, skate, bowl, shop, stroll, go to the movie theatre, plenty of parking, main bus terminal to the west.

Anything you need basically you can find it here. The location is close with Walmart and Best Buy. They also have a cinema! it’s just because they don’t really have many options for restaurants, unless you like Italian food from Olive Garden and American food from Chilli, you need to consider any other places to eat.

Ah, the Dimond Center Mall. A monument to man’s endless desire for more — more food, more noise, more shiny trinkets to fill the void inside. You walk through those glass doors and it’s like stepping into another world — one where every soul’s chasing something they can’t quite name. But I’ll admit… there’s a strange kind of beauty to it. The laughter echoing through the halls, the smell of pretzels and coffee in the air, the flicker of neon lights off polished floors. It’s chaos, yes, but the kind that makes you feel alive for a brief, fleeting moment. You can find anything in that place — from cheap thrills to fine meals, from families sharing smiles to folks just trying to escape the cold. It’s civilization at its most honest: loud, flawed, and full of life. Four stars. Not perfect, but then again… what in this world ever is? — Dutch van der Linde

Surprisingly, this shop was quite huge!!! Being opened on Sundays was a plus. With an ice rink, food court nearby, lots of shopping stores, along with restaurants, made the experience even greater.

I had the single order egg roll and the Hu Tieu soup. I personally was not impressed with the egg roll. I am used to getting some noodles and lettuce, cilantro and other stuff when ordering bagels in the lower 48. I am picky about my egg rolls, so it wouldn't be something I would order again. On a high note, the Shrimp Hu Tieu soup was really good. This is not a soup you find often, so the fact that they did offer the superior was an indicator of what I would consider more authentic Vietnamese food. My friend ordered the Noodle bowl and she was very happy with that as well. I would go here again. Owners..... Please take the time to clean the windows, our table was right next to the window and you could see all kinds of splatter on the inside, it was kind of a turn off since you sit right next to it. Take the time to clean the windows and around the sill on a regular basis. With my experience in food and beverage management, this would be something on my nightly checklist.

It was very busy when we went. The food was excellent. However, they brought my husbands food out almost 5 minutes before mine and the waiter didn't refill our water until he brought us the check.

Amazing food and service.We got the large oxtail pho with bok choy, the grilled chicken plate, the rib eye pineapple sauce, crab wonton, and Calamari. Everything was so delicious oxtail was amazing fall off the bone meat. Friendly service and such a good vibe there☺️

Fantastic pho. Definitely the best in anchorage. Oxtail pho ftw. Will definitely visit again. Its $22 but i got 2 huge oxtail. So its definitely worth it

I love this place! Amazing delicious and HOT food every time. I came here after my dentist appointment and not eating all day. I got food for tomorrow as well. I highly recommend the Beef Stew (it has amazing brisket and carrots) and they provide the bok choy, onion, jalapeño, etc on the side so you can add what you like. It is sooo delicious and they give a good amount of meat. I burned the roof of my mouth to take a bite of the brisket because I was so hungry and just couldn’t wait. Also their “Caliphornia spring roll” which has pickled carrot, grilled chicken, avocado, green onion etc and their plain beef bone broth is Devine!! Most amazing flavor and fairly priced so I get one every single time even if I use it to make other meals at home, but it’s also delicious on its own and I would get it for my mom when she had to have surgery and couldn’t eat anything solid. Thank you to everyone who works hard to make this delicious food!!

Went here for the 1st time on Saturday during my lunch break from work. The good: the food was fantastic, ordered a large rare steak bowl, the pho was perfectly combined ratios of beef, noodles, veggies, & broth. The crab rangoons were obviously house made & not pre-packaged. They were delicious! Prices were a little higher than other Vietnamese restaurants in the area, but not too bad. What wasn't good: how long it took from placing my order to actually getting my food. I did go during lunch rush. But I have an hour for lunch and work is very close. It took 35 minutes for my food to arrive. That seems excessive, even for lunch time. I definitely recommend the food, but if you have time constraints, wait until you have time, as you may be waiting awhile. Also, no napkins anywhere to be found at my table or anyone else's I could see. So had to use my sweatshirt sleeve. Waitstaff did not stop by to see how everything was after delivering my food to see if I needed anything. In summary: food is great, but you'll be waiting awhile, & they need to put napkins on the table.

A friend of mine recommended this place for their bahn mi sandwich and I have to say this was the best bahn mi Ive ever had, other than the fact that I paid extra for add egg and wasabi mayo and didnt get it lol but this was still the best bahn mi! Their beef stew pho OMG SOOOOOO GOOD! I also ordered the calamari, it was good but not great but overall 10/10 would def order again!

This was honestly the best meal I've had in a while. Our server was incredibly welcoming. Our meals were amazing. The Mama Mia! might be the winner. I appreciated the extensive kids menu. The Birds and the Trees was a great healthy option. Not sure how they cooked those carrots, but they were to die for!

Edit: changing my review. Previously had posted some frustration about showing up to a private dinner. However, we made it down the following weekend and were sat immediately. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the staff very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. I had the ribeye which was excellent. My daughter had the kids chicken, rice and broccoli dish and my wife had the bipimbop. Everything was great and all the food we saw coming out to other tables looked fantastic as well. Worth the 2nd attempt for sure and would love to come again. Prices were fair as well.

Great local spot. Ordered the halibut cheeks lettuce wraps🥰. Salmon bowl, and sausage pasta. Food was great, service was pretty slow, the gentleman next to us sent back his food and ordered something else and it took over 20 min to get his next dish.

Amazing dinner and great service from Ian! This gets crowded so enjoy a drink on the patio, or shop at the gift shop next door. When you get seated have the tagliatelle with Ragu and the Alaska burger! Both are excellent! The desert options are fantastic so leave room for one! VictorB

This by far was my favorite meal while in Anchorage. Perfectly cooked, fresh and creative. I was in a group and everyone loved their entrees and apps. The Mama Mia is best bolognese I’ve had anywhere and the salmon is just perfect.

i’m so glad I decided to look up restaurants on the way home from Seward instead of getting back to Amsterdam where everything was probably already closed. I called ahead to this restaurant because we were only gonna have 40 minutes before they close. They said come on in. Salmon was fantastic, also got yummy bimbap bowl and a cider on tap. Insanely beautiful views! Great customer service. Great music playlist for this “hip” millennial. 🤗

My friends and I arrived at Jack Spray after it was closed but the gentleman working allowed us in and let us order rose! It was such a nice gesture and created a fun memory for my friends as I as we were visiting Alaska on vacation! The rose was great and the atmosphere made it all the more magical. It was the perfect stop for a quick drink before exploring more of Girdwood. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the Girdwood area!

The rolls everyone raves about are delicious and massive, but they are not really cinnamon rolls. They resemble a Euro-style egg/yeast bread with some raisins scattered in. The icing is light, lemony even, but not thick or oozy. Even the menu board refers to a Sweet Roll or a bun with butter. We came in thinking we were getting cinnamon rolls, surprise! Nope. But worth trying with a hot beverage. The rest of the menu that we didn’t get to try looks really good, prices decent. Loud, boisterous, energetic place. Servers working hard.

Fantastic breakfast selection!! Most delicious sweet roll ever--like a cinnamon roll but with a few raisins, sliced almonds and a sweet glaze . Super ! And free drop coffee for life if you buy their ceramic mug. Definitely check out this place! I tried to update the hours. They are currently open 8-2 Wed thru Sun

Great spot for breakfast. Their cinnamon rolls are amazing. There is indoor and outdoor seating. It does open at 7am on the weekend and 8am on the weekdays.

Absolutely amazing! I love the vibe inside, definitely worth the drive from Anchorage!

Place looks cute and has good rating but food was extremely sub par. I had the breakfast sandwich and it was the smallest driest sandwich I’ve ever had. 2 pieces of bacon, one egg, and one piece of cheese on a burnt piece of sourdough bread for 16 bucks. Would’ve rather ate gas station sushi for breakfast. Other options looked more appealing there but I wouldn’t recommend eating here

Probably one of the better veggie grilled cheeses ive had. Good coffee too. Recommend!

I love this place and will continue to support it but I want to point out a few disappointments that (when you have time) to address. #1 - every time I have ordered sourdough pancakes they've been absolutely the most unique ever. Not last Sunday -- they were not very sour tasting and not as fluffy and stretchy as I have always had since 1978 when Werner watched over everything. I made a point to tell a worker about it and a manager heard me and explained that sourdough is temperamental - sometimes stronger than other batches.(I have never found this before) but OK I'll accept that and just hope for a better batch next time. #2 We purchased a loaf of their bread and found that it seemed to have changed recipes or something. It was NOT as airy, yeasty, bubbly as I recall which has always set it apart from anything else locally produced. I do hope that you will read this review and take note. That's it from me. thanks, Pete
