    We love BJ's
    Dawn C.

    My husband and I were on a trip to Wasilla to visit friends and were excited to share this local spot, Burger Jim's. It's utterly amazing the options this one spot. Burgers, Chinese food, and more! For our meal, three of us got different burgers; one with a side of tatter tots, one with onion rings, and a starter of gyoza for the table . I ordered orange chicken with rice, because it was listed as a popular dish, and why not. It was pretty hard to pick something because there was a huge selection of food to choose from. The food was good and there was lots of seating. My BFF wanted to show off the art for sale, which was a variety of painted canvas of the Simpsons, and such. This is the sort of place that calls out our number after your order. A good spot to meet friends, plus this place supports local sport teams. We enjoyed our lunch and I'm sure we will return again.

    With their infamous sign of I Love BJ's there is some pretty unique dishes here. Kimchi Burger was surprisingly delicious as well as the garlic burger. Restaurant was clean with plenty of seating and the staff were very friendly. Just a little hole in the wall burger joint but definitely worth checking out!

    Great marketing!

    Oof. Food is average to below average. At the prices we paid, it was a suboptimal value. Our burgers were overcooked and the kalbi was tough and greasy (which is a travesty considering how good it has been everywhere else we've had it). They had a brief power outage at the end of our visit that was emblematic of our time there but I'm certainly not holding that again them. Let's call it a 2 out of 5. The marketing, however, is outstanding! Straight up 5 out of 5

    Jim's Special.

    Do yourself a favor and skip the national sandwich chain next door. The food and service at Jim's was great. Cool little hole in the wall place. Staff was hustling to get there Togo orders out and no one had to wait very long. Will definitely be back.

    Mongolian beef.

    Had a bunch of recommendations to try this place for a while..finally remembered to give it a shot. At first you're not quite sure what to expect, it's in an awkward location next to subway, to walk in to the place is different, and once you're in there..there's a good amount of people sitting on the side waiting for their order. This place is mainly for take-outs..there is no seating inside or out, unless your car counts? Anyways, everyone is very friendly as soon as you walk in and on top of it. We placed our order right away and decided to order from previous recommendations from yelpers reviews. The prices are very reasonable, I love finding gems with good deals!! We waited for about 15 minutes as we were told and got our food promptly. Everything worked out smoothly. Food is ridiculous. I've read the raves about it and was like..can't be that good!?!? It's that good!! The loaded house fries are...holy shyza! Super good. The sauces they use, I can't even explain it. The philly steak egg rolls were...the best philly steak egg rolls EVER!!! I ordered the Mongolian beef but I had to wait a bit because I over indulged and made myself full..anyways..when I had the strength to eat or at least try it..Amazing!! My husband ordered the Jims burger and the P-town burger. To sample both and get an idea..he said both were crazy good!!! I am always a bit sketched out on places serving certain fusion of food..but this place definitely topped all expectations. I definitely found a regular take out place here on out. Super glad we stopped in to check it out. Thank you Burger Jim!!

    The most diverse condiment bar I have ever seen.

    Friendly service. On the ball. Great advice for substitutions on the burgers. They suggested the Palmer Burger with pepper jack instead of blue cheese. It was an excellent suggestion. The burger itself had just the right proportion of ingredients. The right amount of mayo, bbq sauce, onion straws, and bacon. The burger itself was unremarkable, but certainly tasty. It didn't stick out from the rest of the ingredients but it was thoroughly cooked (no pink) which I appreciate. If the price seems high for a burger, keep in mind, it is a decent size. It completely fills the styrofoam container it comes in. Orders are quick and they call for you by name. The hot sauce on the condiment bar seems like a watery buffalo sauce. It has a good kick. Lots of unique burgers to try as well as chicken and rice dishes. They even have kalbi. Excited to try that out!

    Good food if you want a big juicy burger. Not for the faint of heart or gut. You won't break the bank either, which is nice for a change.

    Chinese food as good as it gets. As good as the best in SF or NYC. I can taste that this…read morerestaurant uses top quality ingredients for its food. It has the best taste for Chinese food. As expected, the restaurant was crowded. After thirty minutes, it was hard to find an available table. Food is ordered at a counter, then a waiter takes it to the table. Portions were large. Fried rice tasted just right. It was piled high and I special ordered it without peas. It was prepared correctly. Five stars! Pot stickers were good. 4 stars. My wife had beef chow fun and that was five stars and the portion was large. Self serve soft drinks are available with unlimited refills. Strongly recommend this for anyone who likes good Chinese food. Our bill with tip was over $60. No sales tax in Anchorage.

    Genuinely not sure how to rate this place. It was absolutely an unexpected find in a place I did…read morenot expect a Chinese bakery, let alone dim sum. For clarity: this rating is off the dim sum and dim sum-type dishes alone. Did not try the baked goods (aside from dan tat) or the rice plates/noodle plates, which seem to make up most of the menu. And the dim sum is... hit or miss. The bok choy is a generous portion, properly cooked, not the most interesting, but not bad. Spicy shrimp won tons are on the small side but tasty, although lacking in the umami that their better-known competitors (especially starting with a "D") begin with. Shu mai (shrimp or chicken, I got shrimp) were the most average/solid of the bunch, which to be fair, is entirely adequate. Har gow looked very pretty, but the skins were too thick, both skins and filling decidedly missing in flavor. The bean curd wrap was giant, super-sized vs. what you'd normally see, and while the bean curd wrap was on-point, the pork filling was pretty plain. This extended to the lo mai gai (sticky rice), which was ENORMOUS, like triple the size of what you'd see at normal dim sum, and similarly plain filling. To their credit, the quality of the stick rice itself was quite good, and the amount of filling was ample. Finally, the dan tat. Crust was a bit too crumbly and lacking in richness of the better ones, and the filling was oddly wrinkled, like it'd cooled too fast. However, the filling quality was good enough. They were busy when I walked in for dinner and were completely full a few minutes later, so much kudos to them-- they clearly are appreciated by the community, and it shows. Some diners at the table next to mine got the usual rice/noodle plates and many left quite full, so portions are good. Kitchen, as busy as they are, is both fast enough and a bit uneven. Short version: you're in Alaska, you can't expect what you get in 415 or 626. However, don't get too carried away either.

    This place is truly an odd duck. They have two specialties and they couldn't be more different:…read more 1) Chinese food. 2) Big steaks. I've only ever gotten the steak. The steaks are very good and properly cooked. The salad that comes with the steak is one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen. It's a mountain of ice berg lettuce, dripped with white vinegar (not vinaigrette dressing, actual industrial vinegar), and augmented by 3 cherry tomatoes. So, I would HIGHLY recommend that you get the soup instead! For the other side, I subbed veggies, and it was absolutely worth the up charge! The veggies were fresh, crisp and NOT boringly steamed like so many other steak places. The interior is not fancy and beat down. If you want a "nice steak" come here. If you want a "nice restaurant" to eat it in, this is a tough one to recommend. I haven't had their Chinese food, so I can't comment, maybe next time.

    Little place, decorated cute, and the food was very good. I did not give it four stars because we…read morewere not crazy over the soup. It was some sort of egg drop soup but it did not taste good plus had an awful lot of different things in we didn't care. So besides that everything else was great. We had the egg foo young and Mongolian beef. The interior was cute, our waitress was nice and it was priced reasonably. Not bad Chinese.
