So glad to happen to find SubZero back and open this evening! Don't let the name fool you, the…read morevibe is warm. I think I was the third person in, maybe on their soft opening?! Friendly service with great music playing. Got tapas (very reasonably priced) and a cocktail right after work. Sign says they're open 5 to 11 pm (I think Thursday thru Saturday). While part of the Humpy's empire, SubZero's atmosphere much more chill (pun intended) than Humpy's or Flat Top. I'll be back.

However, it is completely different than the Bubbly Mermaid. The space is bigger, much more open, and brightly lit. The selection of wine by the glass was not expansive but I felt like it was a very well-curated selection. (I got a Vino Verde, my favorite style of wine and...not particularly common to find) Service was incredible. (the owner of El Green Go's waited on us, how cool is that?!) I will definitely be back, I need to try some of their food!

My favorite restaurant in Anchorage , by far…read more The layout of the restaurant is street level entrance with downstairs dining. The staff is just over the top amazing. Antonio greeted me at the door and sat me in just a few minutes. I was seated at the bar counter downstairs. A dark intimate hip place. The guys behind the counter were Cory, Kendrick, and another young gentleman I didn't get the name of. They were happy people and it showed. I saw from the yelpers they had Tsukemono (Japanese pickles) and my second favorite Tsukemen (dipping noodles) . I ordered both and was pleasantly surprised to see the pork belly was perfectly roasted, the 6 1/2 min egg was on point, and the noodles and broth were absolutely amazing. I am a Tsukemen fan and this place did it right. I then ordered the matcha pancetta dessert. Whoa! Completely knocked on the floor with the flavors. This is my favorite restaurant having spent two weeks here and finding this one on my last night. Can't wait to come back. Don't hesitate to eat here.

Unfortunately my most recent dining experience was disappointing. I will preface this by saying I…read morewent during the summer so I know it was very busy due to tourism season. However this was my birthday dinner so I was particularly disappointed. I reserved a table for three in the whisky bar area. We arrived about five minutes early and were told by one of the hostesses that the party at the table just paid and should be leaving soon. About 20 minutes passed before another said the party still had not left even though one of them talked to the server. Eventually I agreed to have us seated in the main dining room. Almost immediately afterward I saw two parties leave the whisky bar so I asked to be moved there, which according to one of the hostesses is where we originally supposed to be. It was over 30 minutes later when we finally got the table I reserved. This left a sour taste in my mouth and I considered leaving at one point, but I was really looking forward to this dinner. For dinner I ordered the Komorebi Old Fashioned and the Dark Horse as I often do, We also shared the whisky pork buns and everything was delicious. Dessert was not as enjoyable. I ordered their espresso martini, the Electric Stolt, which was decent enough. Lacking on the coffee flavor in my opinion. I also ordered the chocolate birthday cake which, aside from the cherries in the cake, tasted like any generic cake you would get from a grocery store. Their other desserts, like the matcha panna cotta and goma silk bar, are much more flavorable. Service overall was fine, but we got the check before my boyfriend could order another drink so we felt somewhat rushed out. Considering this is the only time I've had issues with being seated for reservations, I would go back, but this was my least pleasant dining experience here, unfortunately.

We were in Anchorage after an Alaskan cruise. It was so great to have GOOD and TASTY food again…read more We sat in the bar, and Ali was our server/bartender! We could not have asked for anyone better! I ordered the amazing fish and chips (substituting tots), and my daughter had loaded tots, ravioli, and macaroni and cheese. Everything was delicious! We cannot wait to go back!

What a great place to go for a date night or business meeting. Rather eclectic clients as well as…read morestaff, all of which are super friendly and adds to the charm of this great place! Server was phenomenal in making sure we were all taken cared of. Appetizers were EXCELLENT!! Drinks were EXCELLENT, which made me extremely excited for the Cubano I'd ordered. All that build up, for an alright sandwich. I should preface that I have had a few other cubanos in previous cities. This one in particular was lacking on the "inside" ingredients. There was very little meat and cheese. It was a lot of bread so the meal was basically like eating... bread. For the sticker price of the sandwich, I definitely figured it would have come jammed packed with a lot of meat, and the full taste of the BBQ to shine through. This hasn't deterred me though, I will be back to try some other portions of their fine menu!

*3.5* When it comes to this space where they absolutely…read moreshine is behind the bar. Their whiskey selection, cocktails available, and knowledge are truly outstanding. For me, coming here in the future my place will be at the bar with appetizers. Bar environment is 5/5 As far as the rest goes I think the food is good, not spectacular. 3/5. In the future I think I'd come for an appetizer and a couple of drinks and that's it. I felt the veal was tough on both ordered plates and potentially I would have preferred chicken. That being said the sauce was great. The grappa sauce had amazing flavor and the Marsala sauce also had great flavor. Plus the funghi appetizer was great with the bread. All of it was enjoyable enough for a return visit. This spot has very friendly staff, they move at a classic Alaska pace. Meant for sitting down and enjoying the company of someone you're eating with but not designed for getting in and out the door quickly. Come with the intention to get things as they come and enjoy the ride.

This is a very cool, psychedelic concept with some interesting and creative food offerings but…read morecertain things just miss the mark entirely. Now, my first culinary experience with this restaurant was a good one, their cheese burger with honey and whipped Brie?!?!?!?!?! Is a masterpiece disguised as a cheese burger the tater tots on the side? Meh! Nothing to see there. The most mind-binding, disrespectful thing I came across at this establishment is them calling a glorified Little Caesar's quality cheese bread with a side of dipping sauce a "Pizza" if it wasn't enough that this cheese bread was marketed as a "Pizza" which it is not but to call it a Detroit style Deep dish? Unforgivable! I wanted to love this pizza so badly but I cannot allow anyone else to spend $28.00 on a dried out, over cooked order of cheese bread. The service was good until I was given Diet Coke instead of Coke Zero. I swear service recovery is such a lost art. C-

This resto is one of those easy, reliable spots in South Anchorage when you're craving comfort food…read morewith a fun, laid-back vibe. The atmosphere feels like a neighborhood hangout -- relaxed, welcoming, and perfect for anything from brunch to dinner. One big improvement since last year is the menu -- it's expanded and gotten so much better. Kudos to the kitchen! There are more options now, and everything feels more thoughtfully done, with better variety and stronger flavors across the board. We started with appetizers, and the steamer clams were delightfully well-seasoned.. buttered garlic in the white wine-- yum. For mains, the (not pictured) ribeye steak was cooked to perfection requiring no added sauce, pairing perfectly with my rose wine. The ahi tuna was another hit-- the wasabi-mixed sauce with every bite made it better! Portions are generous, and prices feel fair for what you get. Drinks are also a highlight -- solid cocktails (cold & hot), good beer options, and a nice selection of wines by the glass. Service was friendly and attentive, even though the place was busy. It has a lively feel without being overwhelming. Overall, Manhattan Restaurant & Lounge has really stepped up from last year and is now a great go-to for hearty food, good drinks, and a relaxed vibe. Definitely a spot I'm coming back to.

Food took maybe 10 minutes not long at all. I got the steak frites. Again the fries were not crispy at all. The steak was good, perfectly medium and I couldn't see the sweet bbq sauce on it but could taste it. The dish is not worth $38 though. I'd rather get a baked potato or mashed potato's than fries for it to be that price. Steak was good but nothing amazing. No ad ons for it. It was pre cut into slices. Did t care for the kale salad it came with either. The fresh horseradish sauce was good though. I also got the frankenberry cocktail. They are very small too.
