    Chicken quesadillas, fries, pulled pork sandwich
    Lauren Y.

    Very few menu options at this restaurant, and there already wasn't a ton of places to eat at this particular princess lodge. The food wasn't terrible- but nothing to write home about. The hostess' both times we arrived seemed very clueless/untrained about their own jobs but once finally seated our waiters were attentive. High prices but that was expected due to location and such. Cute place, decent views.

    Nice Salad

    Late Post Aug 23' There wasn't much to choose from at the lodge especially because they said one would have to make reservations in advance. Got the tundra chicken caprese, mixed green salad and the classic Caesar, both were sufficient and good, partner ordered Beer, forgot which one. Our server Ann was nice and brought my sister-in-law ice cream for her bday! Ambiance from their website - Experience 20,320 Alaskan Grill - named for the height of Denali and decorated in mountain-climbing decor with artifacts from actual Denali ascents. Choose from a list of appetizers and entrees that are sure to tantalize your taste buds!

    reindeer meatloaf

    "And do I love you my oh my Yeah, river deep, mountain high" (Ike and Tina Turner) The 20,320 Alaskan Grill is one of the house restaurants at the Princess Wilderness Lodge complex. Its named for the height of Denali Mountain (formerly Mount McKinley) and inside you'll see mountain-climbing decor and artifacts. Three of us had dinner here last week, and we all agreed that the Alaskan Grill menu was ion the "heavy calorie" side with lots of carb loaded and fried choices. Some of the things we ordered on our meal plan were an artichoke dip/bread bowl appetizer, a spinach salad with a scoop of chicken salad, nachos, crab leg plate, a grilled cheese plate, and a reindeer meatloaf plate. The $30 reindeer meatloaf was mine, and it was a dissapointment. It was wrapped n bacon, but was dense, hard to cut, and didn't have any of the soft "juiciness" characteristics I expect in a meatloaf. It was served with a creamy mushroom ragu sauce that I didn't care for. Half of it was all I could put down. Check out the Grilled Cheese my wife ordered -a massive portion of grilled bread and cheese served with a mountain of French Fries. Definitely not a low calorie choice. I did enjoy their $9 Blackberry Nojito, it was a very refreshing alcohol-free cocktail of muddled fresh blackberries. mint, lime, and soda water. When we walked in for dinner the place was pretty empty. When we walked out an hour later, the place was packed. No doubt the cruise ships had emptied a lot of hungry customers into the Princess Wilderness Lodge.

    Chicken

    A LOT went wrong here today. The prime rib came out completly overdone, there was a dirty spoon with rice that came out with the chicken Alfredo, the chicken was freezerburnt at first and when they brought out a replacement it was inedible. Some of the food was cold as well. On the bright side, our service was very good. Our server was nice and management understood. I would not eat here again because the food did not match the price.

    This restaurant was open for breakfast & dinner, and we tried both. Jeremiah took care of us at dinner, and Grace took care of us for dinner that night. Both were friendly, efficient, and made sure we were happy with what we ordered. For breakfast, we could not substitute or add anything not printed with that item on the menu. If we had had to eat here more than once, this would not have have been acceptable. So once was enough, even with good service. We had the skillet scrambled eggs with caribou, bison, and reindeer sausage with sourdough bread and delicious strawberry jam. We also had orange juice and cranberry juice. It was a good breakfast. Dinner was overwhelming - in the proportion of food, not service. Grace was exceptional and made the dinner nicer than the food. Husband had the barbecue wings for his starter (outstanding!) and I had a half Caesar salad (more than enough). He had the 12" McKinley meat pie which would have been enough for both of us. Unfortunately it had a soggy crust (not crisp, the way he likes it) and it was too much food (ate only a couple of slices). I had the prime rib with mashed potatoes (not creamy, but hard) and I asked for no green beans (it would have been too much food). I ate most of the prime rib, but only a bite of mashed potatoes. We couldn't take any leftovers with us - no fridge and no microwave. We had room for dessert - he had the Oreo Cream Pie & I had huckleberry ice cream. Of the two experiences here, Grace was the best and the starters & desserts were the best!

    Pizza
    Lynn N.

    The pizza with veggies and pesto had a good flavor, there was more cheese than I prefer, but the pizza crust was nice and crispy. We experienced a few service breaks during our dining experience, but the server was kind and helpful. Their ordering system was not functioning, which resulted in part of our order being wrong, but the restaurant offered to fix the mistake. It's a cozy atmosphere and is a good option at the lodge.

    This was one 2 restaurants at Mt. McKinley Wilderness Lodge, and we chose to just have appetizers here. Well, just like the lodge itself, this restaurant was quite antiquated...looked as if it had been around for hundreds of years! Again, I'm sure it was really nice when it was in its prime. As expected, the food wasn't much better. I had Clam Chowder...and it was about as bad as the one I had in Talkeetna the day before. Very bland! My husband had the Crab Artichoke Dip, but they were out of their sourdough bread bowl, so substituted with standard bread. He didn't seem too thrilled with his choice either. Honestly, the foods here were no better than the ones I had in Talkeetna...and that was very bad. Still, the ambiance was a bit loftier (though heavily vintaged) than most restaurants in these parts of Alaska, and the pricing was more reasonable.

    We had two meals here, dinner and breakfast. For dinner, we had the McKinley Meat Pie, and the Wild Alaska Salmon Chowder. The pizza was delicious, full of sausage, sausage, and more sausage. The chowder was pretty good too, thick and full of fish and vegetables. For breakfast, we had the Park Ranger Scramble and the Blueberry Patch Pancakes. I really can't get enough of reindeer sausage. It went well with the scrambled eggs, ham and bacon. The potatoes were meh. The blueberry pancakes were soft and fluffy, we didn't really need the syrup. In all, the service was quick and the food was good.

    Handmade salmon burger
    David B.

    Terrible, not at all What we expected. Having been at the Princess Copper river and Denali lodges which had excellent restaurants, this was hard to believe was same company. The Chicken Breast sandwich was wasn't a chicken breast but rather a pressed chicken patty like from Costco. The Handmade Salmon sandwich was thin and clearly looked processed. The wings for $16 were five small wings! The salmon Caesar had about a 2oz peice of salmon ($16 extra) and was terrible, sent it back for chicken and got cubes chicken patty! Terrible food!! The salmon dinner looked good and tasted good, rest was horrible!

    Is this a lime or a lemon? I honestly don't know.

    Nice atmosphere and view, but the food and drinks were nothing to write home about. The restaurant is outside of the main lobby of the Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness Lodge by the fireside patio. I went there to dinner with my mother since the menu variety looked better than the Base Camp Bar & Grill and would 't require reservations or a long wait like the North Fork. The interior of the restaurant is comfortable, like a rustic Alaskan ski lodge. We were seated by the window where we had a nice view of the mountains. I ordered a blueberry mojito, which tasted...off. I think the limes were bad judging by the color. My mom and I shared the crispy ravioli appetizer, which was tasty. We both got a side Caesar salad and a bowl of the smoked salmon chowder. The chowder was delicious, with chunks of smoked salmon, potatoes, corn, and a little kick of spiciness. The Caesar salad wasn't great, mainly because they were skimpy with the dressing. Prices were reasonable (by Alaska restaurant standards). The server was nice, but could have been more attentive. It was fairly busy since it was dinner time, but she spent what felt like an hour chatting with a middle-aged couple from Wisconsin at the table right next to us. She didn't refill our drinks or even asked if we wanted refills. I get that some of the tourists are chatty, but come on, you have other tables to serve. Maybe if we were tourists we would have gotten better service (I showed my ID to get my drunk so she saw I live in Alaska) Overall a decent place for a meal if you're at the lodge and don't want to go too far. But don't go in expecting a fine dining experience.

    Looks good taste bad.

    Kahiltna Bistro - Chocolate lava cake 4.5/5

    Up until this point we have been pretty unhappy with the food in the Talkeetna area--really…read moreexpensive and poorly executed. We were pleasantly surprised however when we visited the Kahiltna Bistro. We spent the day fishing for salmon and caught a bunch, when one of our guides suggested that we take some to town and get then cooked up for dinner that day--sounded great (and was!) He took us to KB, we dropped off the fillets and made a reservation. When we arrived we ordered some apps from a menu that looked pretty interesting. Ended up with the crab cakes, guac and chips. The crab cakes were decent, but the guac was a miss--was pretty much just avocado and tomato. Then we got to the entree--our fish. It was beautifully cooked in an Asian style, sauced, and served on a bed of (jasmine?) rice with Julianned veg. Wonderful! And so fresh of course!! 1 fillet for each of us, $18-PLEANTY of food! Dessert was to follow and we opted for the White Chocolate Creme Brulee, Berry Cobbler w/ice cream and Chocolate Lava Cake w/ice cream. The Lava Cake took the gold medal and we were basically fighting over who would lick the plate! The cobbler was very good and unusual with the mixture of cherries, rhubarb and other berries. The creme brûlée while good was a miss mostly due to the fact that they did not "brûlée" the top and opted to add a small sugar tuile instead which is just not the same and that wonderful crack you get breaking thru the normal crust. Our server was over-the-top perfect in every way and rounded out the best experience we had in town! We highly recommend this place and hope you all get to experience it just like we did

    Good service. Good food. Only beer and wine. Nothing gourmet but solid. Clean and comfortable.read more

    Oh dear. What's happened to West Rib? I used to LOVE coming here, when i was a mere stripling of a…read moretourist way back in 2010, and i have returned many times. I organized an overnight camping trip JUST so i could have dinner at West Rib again, man, what a disappointment. Was the place always this run down, and shabby? Did the sun get in my eyes and blind me? Well anyway, so after me demanding we go to West Rib, yet seeing most other eateries in town absolutely BULGING with tourists, i was a little taken aback by the solo diner in the outside space at West Rib. Gamely i ploughed on with my choice, thinking "maybe i should have gone somewhere else" The server was a nice enough young girl, and she bowed each time she visited the table, and i have absolutely no issues with her - very polite and nice. When she brought the menu, i was shocked. I am sure, i am positive it used to be fatter, had many more choices, every other time I've been here. I distinctly remember a certain sauce or dip i used to order that had a funky name, and was sort of like a schmear but runnier. Now there's only a single page to order from. I wanted to leave. I honestly was on the verge of getting up and going. Anyway, I ordered the Stubbs Burger - hadn't realized he was the Mayor Cat dude, nor that the burger was named after him. Husband ordered the special which was a Brisket Sandwich, and some Jalapeno Poppers to start. The food was fairly fast to come out, and the Poppers were hot, and came with a cool, creamy sauce, maybe ranch? They were ok, taste like every other Jalapeno Popper I've had, I'm not that keen on them to be honest. Then the entrees came out very quickly after that, so i just got started on my burger. Well - see I've been off potatoes in all their glorious forms since February, but these beer-battered fries looked so appetizing, that i grabbed a handful and distributed them evenly across my burger. And i must say - the burger was perfect. I like a well-done, no-pink burger. This was absolutely exactly how i would have asked for it to be cooked if given the choice, i had to take off the onion and the tomato off (they give me stomachache) but of course the 10 fries i put in there filled the gap nicely. And the cheese was oozing very beautifully and dripping out of the bottom. It was gorgeous. He said his Brisket Sandwich was really good too, so despite the place's shabby, and rundown appearance, and slimmer menu - what they cook, they do it very well. I did hear disquieting rumours regarding West Rib, from people around town when i said i was going there for dinner, so whatever they've done, has gotten them a bad reputation in town, which is quite sad really. It holds fond memories for me, due to it being one of the first places my husband took me when we weren't married yet, and i hadn't moved here.

    I can't recommend this place anymore. They say they will be open when you talk to them (in person-…read morethey also run tbe grocery store), then they aren't. They told me they are having a hard time finding staff this year. Every time I've stayed in Talkeetna they've been closed, even when they told me they planned to be open. They aren't updating their website or voice-mail either. The place is dilapidated and run down as well. Such a shame.
