One thing my…read morehusband wanted to try was reindeer sausage and Red Umbrella is one of the originals as there is now another one along the same block. We knew to look for the red umbrella and they were so friendly throwing us a shaka as we walked by. After getting a walk in first, we made sure to stop by for a reindeer sausage loaded with onions and a choice of condiments that you can add yourself, perfect to enjoy at the grass area nearby.

Great food, friendly vendors and a great spot to sit and eat nearby. Fun in Anchorage!read more

Service was great, everyone was so nice. When we were done with our food, the owner's wife came to speak to us. She was so friendly and nice. They make everything by hand which means limited quantity. We'll definitely be back.

Absolutely love this place--five stars, no hesitation…read more They're cash only, and it's a small walk-in, order-your-food-and-go kind of spot. It honestly feels like a food truck, except there's a little waiting area inside where you can stand while your food is being made. Simple, no frills, and exactly how it should be. They make the best breakfast burritos in town, hands down. This is a super small, family-run business--a dad and his son--and Oscar is back there cooking everything himself. The food is fresh, consistent every single time, and you can tell it's made with real passion. He clearly loves what he does, and it shows in the quality. This is one of those places you root for. I will always, always come back.

I love how their cart sits higher than most vehicles, for the safety of the baristas. The service here is friendly. Baristas try to converse with you.

The drink was incredibly hot so I did not try it until I reached my destination. I'm not sure if she didn't add any syrup at all or if she used almond milk, but the drink was not an almond latte. It's disappointing to pay $5 ($4 plus tip) to get a drink I took two sips of. Not sure that I'll be back. The barista was friendly though. Update: After leaving my initial review Josie (the owner) reached out to me and offered a $10 gift card and an apology for my experience. I went back today to try it out again.. I ordered a strawberry, watermelon & lime redbull. The barista didn't ask me what size or whether or not I wanted cream or whip cream.. the drink is ok, but not my favorite. All in all great customer service, but not my favorite drinks.

I love that my M-F Barista is there at 6 and she knows me by my face and not my car, as her comment one day was "you have been in three different cars in the past week". Her "Salted Caramel White Mocha" is to DIE for! Pile on that sugar, its hard for me to stay away! Every 11th drink is free with there punch card. $2.50 Lattes for happy hour between 2-5 maybe 2-4? Unsure....but thats super cheap! They aren't open on Sundays. Make sure to come down A Street to Fireweed (On left side, next to arctic office supply), if you come down Fireweed towards Spenard your going to have to make a U-turn at C Street (pain in the arse). If your coming Fireweed towards Seward you can just hang a right. It will be make life easier if you just take northern lights to A street, even if you have to make a circle. This is there only downfall, great corner, horrible one way location.
