Just note that the crabby grilled cheese, does not have real crab just imitation. (I asked if it was AK King Crab ) that's all that I am going to say.

Unfortunately, we were ignored for about 30 minutes before I finally got up and walked to the bar myself. The bartender was quick and helpful, which is why I gave this place 3 stars. The beer is really good, but they need to figure out their wait staff. We ended up having one beer and leaving disappointed. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I can't recommend this location.

Our table had the following: 6 oysters Rockefeller, 1 fried calamari, a half size blackened halibut Cesar salad, a grilled ribeye steak and an Alaskan halibut fish and chips. Food notes: the oysters were super fresh and delicious, perfectly cooked so that they were only broiled on top and still almost rare below. However the toppings could've been improved with better bacon, and maybe a touch more spinach. Even a small dollop of Béarnaise sauce would've been better than the Parmesan. Nevertheless this was probably my favorite bite of the night. The halibut on the fish & chips was also fresh flaky and really tender. The chips were like thin steak fries that had been battered but were still under seasoned. They weren't great, and no one ate them even our toddler who loves fries. The blackened halibut on the salad was tougher, and dry. There were too many store-bought croutons and the salad dressing was possibly store-bought too and bland for a Cesar. The ribeye was totally sad. It was quite thin and unimpressive especially for the cost. It came with more of those dismal fries and some plain broccolini. Our steak-loving dinner companion only ate about half and didn't care to doggy-bag the rest so it went to waste. Calamari was average, and came with two oily amateur-chef looking sauces, one mayo flavored and one somewhat spicer was basically the same as the first. Our excellent waiter mixed up a cocktail sauce himself that blew the other sauces out of the water. Bravo to him. He was the best while waiting on us also, quick to refill a water or retrieve more drinks from the bar. Good thing the Rockefeller was great, I'd be back for that alone ($6/per oyster) but otherwise I don't think I'd rush back to Fletcher's. Many other eateries in the area that are tastier, with equally difficult parking.

Sure there are more expensive fine dining establishments and view spots with fishing paraphernalia hanging from the rafters, but I love this cozy restaurant as much as the local regulars. Why? It's the food. The first meal was a halibut special, super fresh, perfectly cooked with a bright and creative sauce, and my return meal was a rare ivory king salmon--one of the best fish dishes I've had in decades. Both were paired expertly from their beer & wine offering, and be sure to have some local oysters, also very fresh!

My wife was craving "wild game" and this was one of the Google reviews (all fairness) stated this was available. The server was very professional and I would recommend him as a fine dining server.

Big chunks of core too btw. Friend's salad came...dry. No dressing. Couldn't find waiter. Crab legs good, but served with cheap rice and a dry vegetable medley that was weird, sliced cauliflower, edemame, couple other things that looked like leftovers mixed together.

There's something about airports that strips things down to their bare bones transit, impatience,…read moreoverpriced mediocrity dressed up as convenience. And then, every once in a while, you stumble into a place that refuses to play that game. Silver Gulch is that place. You walk in expecting another layover trap, and instead you're handed a front-row seat to something damn near cinematic. Jets glide in like steel whales, engines humming, lights blinking against that cold Alaskan sky. You're two feet from the runway, and it feels like a million-dollar show nobody bothered to charge admission for. Now let's talk about the move the "Carry-On." Black and blue beef, jalapeño, lettuce, some kind of back-alley secret sauce that ought to be under lock and key. Wrapped up tight like it knows you've got a flight to catch. This isn't just airport food it's survival gear. You grab it, you walk, and somewhere between the terminal doors and baggage claim... it's gone. No ceremony. No leftovers. Just the memory of something that hit harder than it had any right to. That's the kind of food that doesn't need poetry but it gets it anyway. Service? Sharp. No nonsense. The kind of attentiveness that doesn't hover but somehow knows exactly when your glass is getting low. The pilsner recommended without hesitation comes in smooth, clean, no gimmicks. Brewing companies usually lock you into their lineup like it's a contract. Here, at least, you're not getting bullied by the tap list. And the room itself dark wood, rich tones, a little rugged, a little refined. It's got that quiet confidence. Not trying too hard. Not screaming for attention like the rest of the terminal circus behind you. Now sure if you're the type who wants to disappear into some tucked-away lounge like the Alaska Airlines Lounge, sip something fancy, and pretend you're not in transit, that's your play. But you'll miss it. You'll miss this the runway, the movement, the raw, mechanical poetry of people going somewhere. And that's the thing. Travel isn't always about comfort. Sometimes it's about the moment. I bounced around that airport chased a few options, sized them up, felt that familiar itch of "this ain't it." And then I landed here, sat down, took it all in and just like that, the search was over. No snobbery. No overthinking. Just calling it like it is. If you find yourself in Anchorage, standing in that airport with time to kill and hunger creeping in, do yourself a favor walk into Silver Gulch, grab a window, order the Carry-On, and watch the world take off right in front of you. Because sometimes the best part of the journey... is the place you almost overlooked.

That said, management should be ashamed for leaving them stranded without any support. Adding a "Wait to Be Seated" sign doesn't fix understaffing--it just creates a bottleneck.
