Yukon Bar
Oct 16, 2009 by henry from chico ca

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Feeling at home.
• Couldn't spend everyday there.

“My time spent in Seward working for the Fishing Company of Alaska, getting to know the Seward boys, feeling comfortable at the Yukon, the skiff incident and seeing Sacramento, CA. Wearing a Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale long sleeved white t-shirt and the prettiest bar manager that I haven't seen lately.”

Corsair Restaurant (Voyager Hotel)
Oct 4, 2009 by Tamara from Anchorage

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[2] • Service:[2] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Atmosphere, cozyness of the seating.
• Noise, wait sometime for food/service.

“Atmosphere is nice and cozy. Ideally designed for couples. Most tables are set as booths, enclosing the customer in a sense of solitude. The way the tables are designed, customers don't feel surrounded by other people noise/sound. While customers feel cocooned you can hear EVERYONE. When I was there, there were hardly any people but I could hear them all. I didn't just hear the table behind me but I also heard tables on the other side of the restaurant. Food was so so. Appetizer: Oyster Special - it was OK. Not memorable Entree, Venison with blueberry sauce - it was GOOD. Would order it again. Desert Chocolate Mousse - there wasn't a big selection, nor were the deserts memorable. When I read the menu and it mentioned pastry cart (along with the other deserts) I thought I would see something different. Instead, the pastry cart just had the deserts listed on the menu. I was also thrown off when I arrived at my table. I was handed 2 menus. I thought it was the drink/wine menu and the other was the food menu. Both menus were wine menus. The first one was for wine by the glass, beer, etc. and the other was a comprehensive wine list for by the bottle. After I ordered my drink, all menus were removed and I waited for my drink to arrive. It was some time after my drink arrived that the actual menu was handed to me. Also, as I was leaving the waiter approached me regarding my tip. He didn't think my tip was good enough and asked for more money. For the price I wouldn't go back. I've been to other restaurants in the area where the overall experience and price are better. I had read comments about this place before I went so I did plan ahead. 3 hours before my show started. It took 2.5 hours for everything and I was hungry 2 hours later.”

Alaska's Bistro
Aug 18, 2009 by Matt from Scottsdale

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Nothing.
• Food, price.

“Stay away! I tried to be fair in my review by acknowledging the nice atmosphere; however, this place is not good at all. The food was so horrible I would have felt deceived at a quarter of the price I paid. In fact all of our dinners, there were 5 of us and we all had something different, as if they prey on unsuspecting travelers who don't know any better due to the fact that it is so visible from the tour launches and overlooks the harbor. I should have done my due diligence and read the reviews of this place prior to eating there. If I had not had my girlfriend's parents with me I would have sent my meal back and complained. This is the first time I have ever written a review. I feel extremely bad about the meal I had. They had better wise up and realize with the ease of access to information these days that people will wise up and hopefully read review.”

No Name Pizza Co
Jul 25, 2009 by Dave

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[8]

• The kitchen sink is the best on the menu!
• They don't have coffee!

“It's been under new management for about 2 years and it's a place you have to try! The price is right! You can pick it up, eat in, or have it delivered!”

Pizza Olympia
Apr 8, 2009 by Wendy Smith from Anchorage

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[8] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Delicious nutritious food.
• A little odd sometimes, but maybe it's because their family recipes really are odd.

“Most amazing! For people who love real continental cuisine, I don't think there is anywhere else to go in Anchorage.”

Alaska Whaler Bar & Grill

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Great people, great drinks and great food.
• Location.

“This place was a happy surprise as far as the food goes! Although it is located in a small strip type mall the interior is cozy and clean. The bartender was friendly, well dressed and made sure her customers are well taken care of! Wow - can't wait to go back!”

McDonald's
Mar 19, 2009 by Don from Palmer

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[5] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Cheap for a family of five.
• Poor, and inaccurate service.

“Fast food? Come on folks, this is McDonald's Slowest service in a fast food restaurant this side of the North Pole. The orders come back wrong every time, I've been there. Buzzers buzzing too loud on fryers. Only reason the rating wasn't worse is due to the facility being kept fairly decent for an older McDonald's establishment.”

Happy Face Restaurant
Mar 13, 2009 by Diane

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Liked the soup.

“I had the hot and sour soup, which was impressive. They used local ingredients (e.g. halibut) which gave it a local flare. Very spare interior, but ample windows to be able to look out a bit at the spit. Saw eagles landing on adjacent buildings which was pretty cool.”

Papa Murphys
Dec 15, 2008 by marie from wasilla

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Food, service, cleanliness, oh yeah and the cookie doe.
• Never had a bad experience there.

“Papa Murphy's is the best pizza I have ever had! You guys get so busy some times but it's worth the wait. The kids that work there are very friendly. You have me and my family as a life time customer. Keep up the good work!”

F Street Station
Dec 14, 2008 by George from Chicago

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[2] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[4]

• Location.
• Food, service, prices and safety.

“I have frequented this bar for years, but will not again. The place must have switched managers or something - it is nothing like it once was. Food is now poor, arriving cold - and I suspect caused my gastro problems. The waitresses use to be a joy - now you never see them. Try to get a set of utensils & you would think you're asking for their phone number. I have heard about a lot of fights at this place any more. Not sure, perhaps a motorcycle gang has taken it over. Anyway - my recommendation is to stay away!”

Peking Chinese Restaurant
Nov 30, 2008 by Liesl from Juneau

Overall Rating: 2
Food:[1] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[1]

• Cashew chicken dish okay.
• 5 out of 6 dishes ordered tasted terrible.

“Out of the six different dishes we ordered only one was good. The Mongolian Beef was overly greasy and fatty. Sweet and Sour Chicken had too much ginger. It was also over fried. The service was middle of the road. They have no children's menu and when asked if they could do a small bowl of Won Ton soup they said no it is a large bowl or nothing. The prices are high for the quality of the food.”

Mac Murray's Alaska Halibut House
Oct 24, 2008 by M from Valdez, Alaska

Overall Rating: 4
Food:[6] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Good food.
• Minor health issues (unclean tables).

“Pretty good. Maybe once every two weeks. Don't over do it. It gets old after a while (4 years for me), but it is a must for first time Alaska visitors.”

• Service.

“My husband and I have eaten at Turnagan house for years with excellent service and food, however, this past week we took the family for a gathering expecting wonderful food. The prices have gone up and the quality of the food has gone down. For the new higher prices the food just wasn't very good. We probably won't go back.”

Side Street Espresso
Oct 4, 2008 by Meridith from Anchorage

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[8] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Espresso was very good, service was very good.
• Parking was limited; closed at 3 PM.

“Nothing fancy in terms of the environment but the personable and genuine interaction with the owners was unique. The coffee drinks, especially the espresso drinks were fantastic. They had a limited but consistently good menu of light food items, lunch (soup, quiche, bagels and bakery). I would like it to the wonderful old coffee houses of the past where you can linger over your drink, meet friends and have a lively political discussion or if you just need a public place to be alone. I highly recommend it.”

Evangelos Restaurant
Sep 30, 2008 by Vanessa from Wasilla

Overall Rating: 7
Food:[10] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Great food!
• The atmosphere feels a little fake.

“I live just a few minutes from Evangelos and order pizza from them all the time. I've eaten there on several occasion and while I've never been unhappy with anything I've eaten there, they were little expensive for dinner.”

Great Alaska Pizza Co
Sep 20, 2008 by Kaarina from Wasilla

Overall Rating: 5
Food:[7] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Pizza is good.
• The managers should know if the adds in Newspapers pertain to their location!

“Went to AK Pizza Co in Wasilla on Friday 9/12, got 2 large Pepperoni carryout. At home, same day, saw an add-in and for a $2 rebate for the same order. Saved my receipt, went there on Friday 9/19 and asked about the add and discount, plus ordered again the same as previously. You have to ask for the special, I was told by the young girl. But the add doesn't say anything about asking and doesn't clearly show a cut-out coupon.”

Turnagain House
Aug 22, 2008 by Theresa from Anchorage, AK

Overall Rating: 7
Food:[7] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[7]

• The carrot cake is the best.
• For Alaska, the salmon was only fair.

“My friend and I had an above average meal, salmon and steak. The meat was top quality, the salmon average. The prices are very high, but as long as the quality keeps up it isn't so bad. The service was slow, not sure why. The carrot cake is wonderful, comped by the waitress due to the slow service. We plan to go again for dessert and maybe special occasions.”

• They deliver until 11 PM.
• Slow delivery, wrong order.

“I ordered a pizza to be delivered. the delivery took very long, on top of it, the pizza I received was not the one I ordered. when I called, they said the cook was not in, and to "call back tomorrow" and they could re-make it then.”

Double Musky Inn
Aug 9, 2008 by EVOLET (See all reviews by EVOLET)
Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[2] • Atmosphere:[1]

• The import beer was the best thing all evening.
• Barely enough space to walk in, host/hostess placed as so too intrusive to diners.

“After living in Alaksa for over 10 years and hearing such wonderful things about this place, I decided to make it the pinnacle of the evening for my first wedding anniversary. I still wonder, did I end up in a paralell universe? I feel like I got hosed after reading everyone else's reviews. Nothing about this experience was good. It started with waiting to be seen and then escorted to the bar to wait. Once there we order very over priced drinks, but the cheapest on the menu. My husbands tasted like nothing, but did come with a cherry. My drink was o.k. but for the price, a fresh strawberry would have been nice, vs. a frozen one that resembled a blot clot in my drink, making it most unappealing. Next, we had the cajun mushroom, that touts it's spicey...not sure where the spice was. There was more deep fried batter than anything. Finally, after 1 hour and being bumped into by other patrons, our table was ready. But even though we only needed to walk only 15ft, we had to clear out tab of 18.00 for 2 drinks and 11.00 for mushrooms. Needless to say our table was right by the entrance where anyone else coming for a meal would have to loiter and as close to the mens room as you could get. We were greeted reasonably fast by our waitress. We both knew we wanted the "world famous pepper steak" so our order was easy, the only difference was the salad dressing. Salads arrived, nothing there except lettuce and dressing which they got wrong on my husbands. Dressing amount too much for amount of salad. She said a few times she'd be back with fresh pepper, but we ended up using the shaker from the table. The bread was cold and hard, we didn't eat it. It suposedly had cheese and jalapenos, but we didn't see any. Steak finally arrived. From the first bite we were repulsed. The steak was decent once you got past the fat, but gravy was putrid. Our potato had twice the amount of sour cream needed. We both love sour cream, but OMG! The atmosphere is horrible. Seems like most emphasis is on the wine cellar. There is a beatiful fire place that serves as a storage area rather then lend itself to some ambiance. We also got to listen to "poopie" stories most of our meal by a 8-9 yo boy. Nice. Maybe a "pricey" and promotedly upscale restaurant could cater a little more to the adults that frequent this playground called Girdwood and have a separate area for those with children much like bar is for adults. While some of this is the issue of the Double Musky and some is not, the fact remains on what should have been a romantic evening back at the B&B that we paid $200.00 for the night was wasted as we were both sick with horrible diahrea in the bathrooms. Try as I might I can not find one saving grace for this place. Oh, yeah..forgot the imported beers we ordered were awesome. In talking with some Girdwood locals were heard stories of the place having gone down hill in the last few years. A mention of "the son took over" was the promient reason for the decline. Skip it! Double Musky meal was $100.00 for two for two drinks, two beers and two steaks. I have had better steaks at Lone Star. I should also mention we have eaten all over the world, maybe some folks who haven't will continue to recommend this kibble, I for one can not. I truly would not have fed that steak to my dog. Avoid it. If you want to eat in Girdwood, you want quality food, serice and atmosphere, go to Seven Glacier Restaurant at Alyeska Resort. I recommend the Ahi, but that's another review.”

• I liked the "idea" behind what this place must have been like one day.
• I really did not like the closing of the bar tab before dinner. Two credit card charges is not necesary.

Phyllis's Cafe & Salmon Bake
Jul 22, 2008 by Maureen from Connecticut

Overall Rating: 1

• Crab cakes were good.
• Service terrible.

“On July 16, 2008 we ate at Phyllis' after hearing great reviews from another couple from our home state. The service was terrible. The menu stated your choice of potatoes with dinner, we ordered French fries not realizing or being told they were extra. We never saw our waitress again for the rest of the meal. The tip was already included on our bill. After seeking our waitress out and finding her sitting at a table reading the paper (to her benefit tip included). I guess customer service is not big to them they take their tip either way. Food was also not that great corn on cob was so soggy you could not eat it.”

“I was told about Fat Olives by the Ocean Shores Motel in Homer. (Excellent Motel by the way, ocean views!) We went our for second night in town and WOW, what a great place! Excellent menu with a wide variety of salads and appetizers. My friend ordered the marinated Rib Eye. I tried the fettuccini with meat balls and both were excellent! The gentlemen at the next table were raving about the pizza and how they travel to Homer every year, look forward to all meals at Fat Olives! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who travels to Homer Alaska.”

Colony Kitchen The Noisy Goose Cafe
Jun 4, 2008 by Pat from Wasilla

Overall Rating: 1

• Restaurant decor nice.
• Tasteless, expensive food not worth two cents.

“We ate there for the first and the last time the other day. Breakfast came to $36 for 2 people. Food was horrible. They charged 1.25 each to add peppers, onions and sausage. The breakfast scramble had about 5 small pieces of pepper in it, very few onions and skimpy sausage. The meal was tasteless! The scramble was loaded with potatoes, hard to find the eggs and the peppers, onions and sausage. I will not ever waste a penny there again. Really bad, would not recommend it to anyone.”

Turnagain House
May 18, 2008 by John from Anchorage

Overall Rating: 5

• Service and drinks were great!
• Food quality has not met our expectations.

“We had a couple appetizers: Stuffed mushrooms with seafood which came out cold and the chef had to reheat them. My stuffed clam which was bitten into was reheated and returned -- that was not appropriate. The pan fried razor clams were tough and overcooked. I ordered the l/2 rack of lamb it was not cooked -- so I refused to pay for it. We used to go there many years ago -- when the food was excellent -- but now the food was not up to our expectations like before. The waitress was great -- she tried hard to please us by taking off the lamb off the bill and bringing a free dessert. I would not recommend this place in the future.”

Mac Murray's Alaska Halibut House

• The freshness of the halibut and the great way it was prepared.
• That it's so far from my home town.

“We discovered the Halibut House in Sept. of '07. For someone, who is not a lover of fish, I can tell you that I can hardly wait to return to have another meal of the halibut fish and chips. We ordered that last year and found it to be absolutely excellent. We are scheduled to return in Sept. of this year and my first thought was that we could revisit Mac Murray's. We'll only be in Valdez for a matter of hours, as we'll be traveling with a Princess cruise, but I intend to make the most of my time there. If only my stomach could old more!”

“We were extremely disappointed with the quality of the food and the service here at Palmer, AK's Noisy Goose. Their Reuben was served on white bread without any dressing, their Burgers cost 9.50 and were comparable in size and quality to something you'd buy at a fast food joint, and our waitress never refilled our coffee. I was so dissatisfied with my meal that I'm spending the time to complain about it here, so take my advice and don't waste your money here.”

• Food, wine list, desert, scenic drive.
• Wait.

“We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. They had several restaurants and offered room service (although we didn't use either). Also had other amenities (pool, tennis courts, and internet). The room was very clean and the front desk staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room attendant was also very helpful. The hotel is in a good, safe location. Close by to a supermarket if you want to buy snacks/water which is helpful when you're there multiple nights; however the only downside is there is no fridge so we couldn't keep our water cool.”

• Poor service, bagged salad, food just ok.

“My family took me to colony kitchen/noisy goose cafe to celebrate 40th birthday. We order hot wings. They came pretty quick, but she said she would return with plates. We finally gave up and ate our wings. We were just finishing up when she returned with our plates. We finally got our drink orders after we finished our hot wings. She didn't bring my dinner salad until she brought my meal. We would have asked her for the salad, but she was not to be found. We drop 70 bucks for four people, and the food was just ok. There are not very many choices to choose from in this area, but I will not return again. Oh! Business was way slow! I could understand if it was really busy, but it wasn't. .”

• Outstanding steak! Best I ever had!
• Having to pay for our drinks while we waited and not being able to carry the table with us to the table we ate at!

“When we arrived it was busy so they seated us in a side room and we ordered drinks while we waited for a table. Then we had to pay for our drinks when our table was ready. I think we should have been able to carry our tab with us, since we were having dinner here. That had to have been the only thing I found negative about it. The steak was out of this world. If your ever visiting Alaska this is a must do!”

Gwennies Old Alaska Restaurant

• Children seem to like all the stuffed animals in the decor.
• This restaurant is past its prime and in full decline.

“We'd been to Gwennies before and had a decent breakfast, so we decided to try their dinner menu. Big mistake. We'll never go back to Gwennies again, and we don't recommend that anyone eat there. My husband and I both ordered the baked halibut dinner special. Before eating at Gwennies, I had no idea that an Alaskan restaurant wouldn't know how to cook halibut, but the cook at Gwennies that night didn't have a clue. We both were served a huge slab of halibut, but the fish was cold and mushy. It looked and tasted as if it had been reheated after being frozen, and it hadn't been completely reheated. How can an Alaskan restaurant serve cold, mushy halibut as a dinner special? We've had perfectly cooked, light and flaky halibut at numerous restaurants all over Alaska, so it was quite a shock that Gwennies was so bad. We spent $50 on that dinner.”

• Amazing soup!
• Boring layout.

“The most delicious tomato soup I have ever had! So good it made the pasta dish taste bland by comparison! Perfect little informal restaurant for all day dining. Super efficient and friendly staff. Will definitely be back if even just only for the soup!”

• Nice waitress.
• Poor quality food, over priced for the quality left with that ripped off feeling.

“The worst Mexican food ever! Save your money they're are a lot of good restaurants in the Kenai, Soldotna area, but this is not one of them.”

• Loved it all.
• None.

“Experienced George Inlet Lodge while doing a tour from the Radiance of the Sea Ship. The Dungeness crabs were to die for and it was my first time eating them. The staff was very entertaining and they worked very hard to please. The cheese cake dessert was smooth and creamy. It was a wonderful afternoon. Do remember that there are about 79 steps down to the restaurant and if you need a ride up let the staff know.”

• Food, beer and service.
• Noise level.

“This was a great introduction to anchorage having just arrived and exhausted from our trip, to enter this restaurant that was bustling with people energized us. The food was incredible if you are there the herb crusted halibut is incredible, complemented by a tasty amber ale. Scott our server made the experience even better with his attentive service, knowledge and sense of humor. This place is a must if you are ever in anchorage...”

• Great Osseo Bochco.
• Music could be a bit louder.

“In town for a business trip and had a free evening. Took a nice walk around downtown and ended up with this. Since I was by myself, found an open seat at the bar and ordered a draft beer. I was told it was from their other restaurant. A very tasty Hefeweizen. Very friendly bartender, mention he had been in town for a number of years and was full of all kind of great tips. Started with a sliced tomato, fresh mozzarella and basil salad, very fresh tasting tomato slices and great flavor. I ended up ordering the Osso Bochco and found it to be outstanding, would order it again next time in town. Carrot cake for dessert and it was one of the best I ever had. Busy place, very nice service, all the staff seemed to be having a good time. Good Food.”
