Most often, I leave a steak house thinking I could make a better steak for a fraction of the price at home. This was not the case here. The service was also good, which is a nice change for the area. We live here and quite frankly, the service in the Anchorage area is usually pretty marginal. So, that was a pleasant surprise. However, the sides are quite expensive and billed as "family style" but they are a single serving really. The exception was the Parker House rolls which I think came out 5 to an order. They were pulled apart and the sides of the rolls were dry, as if they had been plated up and set under a heat lamp for too long. The risotto was prepared incorrectly. It was mushy with no hint of the classic al dente. I think if they can't take the time to cook that dish correctly, they should consider taking it off the menu as it is a marker for a good meal in my opinion. The wedge salad was pretty standard fare, with a couple of heirloom tomato slices that were also mushy (although, I can forgive that given where we live as the lettuce was crisp and nice) The other side we ordered was a special, fiddlehead ferns, served braised. They were tasty, and the best non steak item we had, but a small portion and, I think $23, which seemed quite expensive. I think the next time we go, we will just share a steak with a glass of wine and skip the overpriced 15-25 side dishes.

Food is delicious, the service is excellent. I haven't dine-in yet but I'm going to soonread more

I honestly wasn't expecting the room to be as large as it was. There was plenty of space for everyone to gather comfortably without feeling crowded. The price for the space was also very affordable, especially considering how much room we had. I loved how spacious it was, and it worked perfectly for our retirement celebration. They don't serve food, but there was a food truck outside where people could purchase food, which was convenient for the event. Overall, I really loved the space and appreciated that we were able to have such a great setup on short notice. I would definitely consider Old Man Rush again for another party or group gathering.

There's a great comfy vibe when you walk through the door. Seating on the main floor and also upstairs, along with a room for events. A friend of ours in a band has played there before as well, which he said he always enjoys. We had cocktails from the event so didn't get to try their beer. One of the local food trucks was outside and several people were partaking as well! I definitely look forward to going again!

I've been going to pizza man since 1988 when we moved to Eagle River, it had long been the metric…read morewith which I've judged pizza. It was the pizza reference I grew up with when I came of age and learned what a pizza was. That said over the past years, the points we had amassed as we were weekly or every other week pizza na families and often multiple lunches per week at pizza man. That stopped after this last Thursday. We had a late evening of soccer, then a power outage occurred and we had no ability to cook, thought taking a pizza to go would be ok. We ordered and headed that way. Upon arriving, we asked to change our pick up order to a dine in option as the kids and I wanted drinks and sodas. The hostess said "that shouldn't be a problem, let me clean off a table and I can seat you." It seemed out of courtesy that she notified the server that she was seating an adult and three kids, "they already ordered their pizza just want drinks and salads too." The server, a shortish woman about 5'5" long curly dark hair some visible tattoos was told this. She turned and said to the hostess "they ordered to go, they get their pie and get outta here." I said "hold on, we haven't paid for anything yet, we just want to sit and eat and we will still pay for everything, even tipping, just don't want to eat pizza outdoors or in the car." Her response was "you shoulda thought of that before you placed an order, pay for your pizza and get outta here." While this was happening, there was another couple who had done the exact same thing in the front dining area-eating out of to go boxes as they too "changed their mind." I love pizza man I hated that server If you wonder why you're losing customers-look within the staff you've hired. I didn't pay for the pizza and it's unfortunate I said "this fucking place has gin so fucking far downhill from where you used to be." Literally a staple of the community and hiring shitbags and others who treat YOUR customers like shit. How fucking dare you. I'm sure I won't get the response I'm looking for. But I hope everyone who is thinking of going to pizza man reads this and rethinks paying any money to your business. It's so sad to see a company who was so great to a community succumb to greed and assholeism that is too prevalent in our society Politely Go fuck yourselves What sucks is that I have to even give A star so it'll work in some metric for yelp. No one at pizza man cares to comment and no manager wants to address this either. Pretty common for dirt bags

But unfortunately I saw he has running nose and he just use his hand to clean it like regular ... and I hoping he wash his hand before bring our dish to our table. That is totally disgusting .

Located in the heart of Eagle River, this locally owned Mexican restaurant has authentic regionally…read moreMexican food. Ambiance - 4.25 Stars the building is modern, open, and airy. It has two floors and an outside patio with a lot of tables, booths, chairs, and benches. It has a full service bar with a decent selections for your vocations and they make Mocktails too. The 1st floor is the main dining area and to the outdoor patio. If it is sunny and warm, I highly encourage you to sit outside to soak up the Alaskan "rays". There are three different areas with fireplaces for additional warmth in the cooler days. The Mexican decorations are tastefully done and some of the art have been made by some of the employees. There is a wooden metal horse made with driftwood and light tin. As you walk upstairs, a beautiful mural is hand painted by a local artist. Also, there is an elevator for people who can't use the stairs; a wonderful addition. Staff: 4 Stars The staff were friendly, professional, respectful and helpful. We were greeted and seated to our tables. Our server assisted our large group of 8. We arrived after 1:30 and were seated in area where it was a tight because one family member is disabled and has an electric wheelchair. The staff were very accommodating and were able to created our table seating environment. Food: 4 Stars As mentioned earlier, this restaurant curates authentic regional Mexican food. You can actually taste the spices, proteins, fresh veggies and the freshly made salsa. There are too many Mexican restaurants that accommodates our "American" preference when it comes to seasoning or "bland" flavors and the food doesn't taste great. Or it covered in queso. The chefs / cooks here, are doing a wonderful job in bringing the real Mexican flavor back. Mucho gracias! Now for the food: 1. Chicken Chipotle Bowl: 4 Stars - $27.00 - a blend of chipotle and spices with grilled chicken, bacon, onions and bell peppers, over our home style rice, beans and three flour tortillas. 2. Lunch Portion - Carne Asada Tacos (2) $18.50 - large corn tortilla filled with carne asada (beef), red onions, pickled onions, and cilantro. Comes rice and beans. The beef was juicy, seasoned well, and flavorful. The corn tortilla is slight cook with oil to make them slightly malleable to hold the amount of beef and items. The frijoles (beans) weren't truly puree so you can taste some of the chunky beans. The rice was good and not overcooked. 3. Lunch Portion - Chicken Flautas. (2) $16.00 with rice and beans. The frijoles (beans) weren't truly purée and you can taste the beans. The two large Flautas were filled with chicken and deep fried tortilla were crispy. The chicken flavorful and tender. You taste the seasoned chicken. 4. Amazing Tacos - 4.5 Stars $24.00 Grilled steak and chorizo on five mini corn tortillas with grilled onions, raw onions, cilantro and fresh lime. Does not come with rice and beans. Additional $6 charge for it. So a $30 dish. Pretty expensive. 5. Steak and Chicken Fajita Combo $28.99. 4 Stars. It is a sizzling skillet with onions, and bell and or sweet peppers. Three flour tortillas, guacamole, pico de gallo, lime wedges and sour cream is provided. 6. Carne Asada Burrito - 4.25 Stars $19.99 A flour tortilla filed with grilled steak, rice, and cheese. Covered in green sauce and guacamole. Beans and rice is a $6 extra. This burrito is pretty large. It was plated on the largest plate especially when you add the beans and rice. The burrito with then salsa verde was flavored and seasoned really well. Be ready to unbuckle a notch or two on the pants. You may need to be rolled out. Desserts: We shared the following. 1. Flan - 3.75 Stars - A really good Mexican flan. You can taste the Mexican vanilla bean and custard were cooked well and evenly. Sweeter than the Churros. Served w whipped cream and fruit. 2. Churros - 4 Stars - The freshly made churros were fried and covered in cinnamon, sugar, and served w dollop of fruit and whipped cream. 3. Fried Ice Cream - 3.75 Stars The sweetest of the desserts we tasted. A large helping of vanilla ice cream rolled in crushed cornflakes, then deep fried. It was covered with a raspberry jelly syrup and served in a flour tortilla shell drizzled with honey. All were good and the range in sweetness. Price: 3.25 Stars - it is at a higher end at this restaurant. Be prepare to spend some $$. Also, don't ask for extra chips and salsa, unless you are ready pay an extra $6 after the 1st complimentary bowl of chips and salsa. I highly recommend this place and if you can't make it to Eagle River, which you need to, there is another location on Old Seward in Anchorage. Enjoy!

The enchiladas had good flavor and the queso dip was good but should be eaten quickly otherwise it will solidify and be difficult to put chips into. The Blue Skies is questionable though. I have had many alcoholic drinks in my time but I don't think I've had one that's tasted like a mix between pool water (chlorine) and cleaner...I'm not sure if it was a bad mix or what happened but that's not a drink I'd order again. My wife had the tacos one chicken and one beef. She stated the chicken needed to be flavored more.

The chips arrived hot, and the salsas (hot and mild) were the real deal. Ask for the green salsa, too, as it goes beyond the normal salsa verde, and it is really, really good. My husband and MIL ordered the Halibut Tacos ($26.50), and these were surprisingly just okay. The halibut itself was great, but there wasn't any sort of sauce with the tacos, which left the taco as a whole coming across as somewhat bland. My son ordered the Acapulco Dinner ($29.95), which contained shrimp, crab meat, chicken breast, cream sauce, tomatoes, avocado, and cheese, served with tortillas. He loved it. I ordered the Seafood Fundido ($28.50), which is a deep-fried specialty made up of shrimp and crabmeat, jalapeño cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and pico. Naughty, but so good!! I wish we would have been able to try their margaritas, as I'm sure they're amazing. However, we had a long drive ahead of us, so we settled with water, which was kept refilled I recommend this restaurant, and I'd happily return.
