They had such an upbeat vibe inside! It was nice and fun when just sitting there. Server (can't remember her name) was amazing giving us all the goods favorites popular. Since it was our first time she took care of us well. The Workz had sooooooo much garlic! I LOVED IT!! Got mild to enjoy the taste of the sauce. Wasn't too spicy just a little kick. If you can handle spicy I'd go up a spice! Shrimp wasn't over cooked so it was easy to peel off! These were the first crab legs of the trip and 1000% happy with it! First time having reindeer sausage. Loved it! It did have a different taste obviously so if you give it a try, dip it w the sauce and eat it w your rice! read more

Sadly, I agree with pretty much everything Daniella A. had to say. Maybe it's because we were at Whisky & Ramen the night before, but the service here was very, VERY underwhelming. This is one of those rare places where I was eager to hear "the spiel". You know what I'm talking about: the little scripted speech places with unique dining situations give you if it's your first time? I needed that here. My family and I studied the website and the menu, and read the Yep reviews beforehand but we still needed some help. How much is typical for 3 people? Should we get an entree? How hot is the xxx level? The is "The Workz!"? Are you out of anything (they were, and didn't say till we tried to order it)? I made reservation on Yelp. I thought we were in great shape when the hostess asked "is it your first time dining with us?" Then our server (who was the same person as the host) was pretty much like "what are you ordering?". Zero explanation, zero chatter, zero recommendations. It was like being grilled on a test. They were then quick to butt in an tell us they were out of things (no AK shrimp), or quick to pop-quiz us on options that were never explained to us. It was a jarring experience. The food was good, not great. The seasoning was wonderful. Unlike most food in Anchorage the (non hot) spices were liberally used. There was BOAT LOADS of garlic. The spice level was really weak though. If you get XX spice level it will be very mild. I recommend XXX spice level if you like hot food. We got an entree: the Fiyah Crab, it was well-seasonabled and tasty. The white rice was useful to help soak up the wonderful lemongrass seasoning that is the Fiyah sauce. (contrary to the sound of the name the fiay sauce, while delicious, is not spicy, nor is it supposed to be) Since the crucial part of the menu, the seafood boil was not explained to us, I'll try to explain it to you, dear reader: You get seafod in a bag. it's in a bag to preserve the copious amount of seasoning. When you get it, you cut it, and dump it into a large metal bowl. You then eat from that bowl and leave the shells on the table, which has a plastic cover on it. You choose from various seafood by the pound. Make sure you ask which ones they are out of, because they are often out of them. We choose: Shrimp Crawfish Snow crab You then choose a seasoning, we chose "The Workz!". None this was explained but I'm assuming it's the "everything" seasoning. For heat level we chose XX, which was barely detectable. You then choose "add ons" which are non-seafood proteins as well as stuff you'd find at a cajun crawfish burl: corn, sausage, potatoes, etc The shrimp was spectacular, some of the best I've ever had! The crawfish was pathetic. Mushy, tiny tail meat. Sucking the heads was great though! The snow crab was somewhere in the middle. The service is really important to a place as conceptual as this. Hopefully this review helps someone out that's trying to order food for their family here! read more

Since we loved seafoods, and we've been to a lot of seafood boils, this one did not disappoint. Fresh juicy seafoods. Calamari was good and the dip is kinda new twist. Kids loved it! Service is good, although our lobster was forgotten and was served late, our server gave us a discount.We came here during winter time and kinda busy, so I suggest make a reservation, place kinda small but cozy. I've seen big parties and ordered their Denali feast and looks good and huge! We want their the WoRkz sauce and served in a big bowl! ( we wanted ours on the side) read more

Came in on a Saturday evening and the place was pretty busy, constant foot traffic. Wait was not too bad, service itself was fast too once seated. We each ordered a seafood bag and my oh my there was A LOT to eat! Definitely can be shared between 2 people. I had the shrimp with all extras (potatoes, corn) and reindeer sausage. I made mine medium spicy and it wasn't too spicy, little kick for sure. For the sauce, I had their house "mixed" and wasn't all that impressed with it, 2 stars for it. It wasn't that soup-y, more chunky with lots of garlic which I wish they had more soup to be able to dip my pieces. The reindeer sausage was OK, definitely could tell the difference between the reindeer one and beef one (beef sausage was really yummy!). We also ordered a side of the garlic noodles and everyone at the table loved the noodles! Pretty spacious spot, good amount of seating inside and they have extra seating on the side. Definitely recommend this place but you must come with an appetite! read more

My wife and I were in town for a vacation and on one of the days we were craving seafood so we found this place on an online search. When we were there we saw groups order the big feast which had everything (crab, shrimp, craw dads, etc.) We ordered their Fiyah Crab (curry sauce) which used dungeness crab, their seafood garlic noodles and their crispy calamari. The seafood seemed fresh and tasty, we enjoyed the seasoning. The food came out in a reasonably timed manner, and the staff were friendly. We couldn't finish it all and we ordered an extra bowl of rice to go with the leftover crab which made for a good second meal. Fresh seafood at restaurants can be on the pricy side, but we felt the bill was reasonable overall. I'd try it again. read more

While looking for a dinner place, we found this one on Yelp and put our name on the list - at that time there was a 75 min wait for two people. We arrived almost an hour later and waited another 15-ish minutes. When we pulled into the parking lot, we were non-plussed. The outside leaves much to be desired. Weed control at a minimum. What was obviously a fast food place (Arby's? Wendy's?) was made into a spice-driven seafood place. The inside was sparsely decorated and it's clear that people are there for the food. In fact, they serve up what can only be described as a trough to larger parties. My hubby chose a seafood boil with beef sausage, fresh Dungeness crab, shrimp, and corn on the cob with butter and garlic. I've never seen so much garlic in my life! The crab was good sized as were the shrimp. Highly recommend! I have a broken wrist and cannot crack crab at the moment so planned to order fish. Unfortunately they were out. Instead, I ordered the Tobiko crab fried rice. There was a lot of crab and it was good, but I probably wouldn't order it again. It's really not a main course item. Service was good and we had everything we needed, but our server was really busy. We'd definitely go back. read more

In addition, the margarita was all ice, and tasted like your typical Jose Cuervo margarita. The calamari was good and fairly thick, enjoyed by everyone. The seafood pasta had a good flavor and loaded with seafood, truly the one meal I enjoyed. The fish and chips had 3 large portions of halibut, with a heavy fried batter, and average fries. It didn't taste better than your average fish and chips, and I'm glad I didn't personally order this dish. The kids chicken and rice had a surprisingly large amount of chicken with bland rice. The scallop risotto, just simply wasn't very good, it wasn't bland, but the flavor was lacking, and of the 3 that tried it, no one ate much. The kids dessert was called house made sorbet, and my kiddos were so excited to eat it. They tried one bite and almost cried, he said it tasted like broccoli, and I laughed and tried it myself...no kidding, this tasted like broccoli!!

For the girls and I, this is our comfort spot! Semi and Maria always go above and beyond! They're incredibly friendly, attentive, and make you feel so welcomed every time you walk in. That kind of service really keeps you coming back. The food is amazing across the board, but I have to say... I will always spend the extra $5 for the mozzarella cheese on the spicy rice cake. 1000/10 every time. It's 100% worth it. If you're looking for a place with great food and even better service, this is it. Highly recommend!

I'd give their food 9 out of 10 and I'd give 10 out of 10 for their customer service. Customer…read moreservice is huge especially for me because I'm also in customer service industry. It is a friendly environment, but the place needs more space. Tables are so close to each other, which is my biggest pet peeve. I've ordered a chicken bulgogi, it was good but it needs to be marinated longer. It's probably because it's getting ordered a lot. Other than that, everything was perfect.

49th State Brewing - Anchorage

Yak burger anyone??? I was in beautiful Anchorage and…read morewanted to grab some lunch. 49th state brewing was perfect because it wasn't far from my hotel and because it was so cold outside, I didn't want my walk to exceed 15 minutes. I was really hungry so I got there right when they opened at 11 a.m. I was able to be seated immediately and opted to sit upstairs where the tables were lower as compared to downstairs where the tables were high tops. Off the bat the food is phenomenal. For starters I got their popular handmade Bavarian pretzel. It was perfectly seasoned with butter and salt and the pretzel itself was soft and fluffy. It came with a side of cheese which was just as tasty. I was a little nervous it would taste like the melted cheese you eat at an amusement park- but this cheese had fantastic quality. One really neat thing about this brewery is they make their own fountain drinks! I tried the raspberry one and as you can see they aren't shy about the portions! The drink was really good. It had a great flavor to it, and a nice balance. The raspberry wasn't overpowering which I'm grateful for. For my entree I had the Yak burger that came with a side of tater tots. My waiter recommended I get it cooked at medium to keep it juicy. Typically I'm a medium well to well done type of girl, but I decided to trust his judgement and he was right! The burger was huge, messy, and delicious. The medium was definitely a good call. It was juicy but not so red where it would be off putting! Overall, I had a really incredible dining experience at 49th state brewing. And the prices were unbelievably reasonable. My meal came out to about $52 (not including my tip). I would love to come back when it's a bit warmer and sit outside- the views from the restaurant are phenomenal. Also, shout out to my waiter! I didn't get his name but he was so kind and the service was excellent!

I calculated our meal cost before paying and it was around $5 higher on the bill presented than what it was listed on the menu. I also was paying cash so it shouldn't have been any kind of extra card fee. I have reached out to the company, but no response yet. Depending on their response will depend on if I'm a returning customer

They gave solid recommendations and even offered to start grilling the meats for us, which was a nice gesture and made the whole experience feel easy and chill. Prices are honestly very reasonable for Alaska, especially for Korean BBQ. They have a variety of tasty banchan--everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and there was a good variety to keep things interesting between bites. Overall, great food, great service, and just an all-around good spot to hang out, eat way too much meat, and have a good time. Definitely coming back.

When we arrived things we a little disorganized when they seated us, but the team was pleasant. But after that, things got weird. Our primary server Alaya had some seriously bad vibes that felt... directed at us. We watched the way she interacted with other people and it was definitely specific to our party. After we placed our order and the meat arrived as she was placing meat on the grill she dumped blood all over my side of the table and into my dipping sauces and I wondered if it was intentional, but I didnt say anything. Then she placed TWO WHOLE TRAYS OF MEAT ON THE GRILL at once which they are not supposed to do due to cross contamination and it takes too long for things to cook. Since you only have your table for 90 minutes, I also wondered if this was intentional. She didn't come back to check on us and I had to push the call bell to ask for help to turn up the heat since 20 minutes later the meat was still raw. Then when it was time to change to chicken they usually change the grill plate because the plate gets very smokey. She completely ignored us when I called for help. And when she finally did come back she let raw meat plates on our table, which I know they are not supposed to do. She kept giving us weird nasty looks- it was so strange. We were nice to her- i have no idea what her issue was. On our way out, we mentioned to the cashier how Alaya had ruined our experience. She asked if it felt "targeted"- so I think they've gotten, other complaints about her. We spent over $2oo on a 3 person meal, but i can assure you we won't be back if we're going to be treated like that. I'll save my business for WonJo.

The service is great but the best part of the experience is being able to cook food right at your table. The experience of that makes it a lot of fun. I love the decor and the overall experience, especially since the sushi bar is right up front where you can watch just as you would if you were in japan. It's a very enjoyable experience but also has some simpler items for those uncomfortable with an all around fusion experience. Ex. Fried rice, Mongolian beef, and sesame chicken are some basics that most Americans seem comfortable with... but i dare you to be brave and pick something new :)

We got the Mongolian beef which just tasted ok. The meat was a little on the tough side. The sesame…read morechicken had a light batter and sauce and it was also just ok although the portion size was decent. The house special fried rice had a good amount of shrimp and other meats but was an average portion size. The combination yakisoba was nothing special as well. The common denominator is the fact that all of the entrees came out lukewarm. The hottest thing on the table was the hotpot. I quite enjoyed the udon noodles and the broth was decent. The service was just ok. She disappeared for quite a while after all the food was on the table. We were a large group and so was the table next to us and I'm sure she had other tables as well. I might be inclined to come back to try the sushi.

Midnight Sun is tucked away and a bit off the beaten path and is literally just among warehouses. I love me a veggie and pesto sandwich, but mine needed balsamic or something to make it taste less dry. I also thing it being "panini style" on focaccia bread is a mistake because the bread was crumbly and I wonder if they have it on focaccia to differentiate it from the other sandwiches *shrug* My wife loved her pork sandwich the "Sweet Cheeks". If we're ever back in alaska, we'll return. How has this place been around 30 years? One of their anniversary brews said that. Craft beer was a thing in Alaska in the 90s?

Enough to keep seeking new ones out but even then that wouldn't last too terribly long and especially if I lived there. Midnight Sun Brewing is one of the Alaskan ones I tried a while back and I felt that the beer I had was very solid and enjoyable. In fact Alaska in general thus far I have enjoyed the breweries there considerably. The beer I had from this brewery was the Panty Peeler which is a Belgian Tripel. A good beer for sure and is a good pairing with fish and chips or a burger. Flavor highlights with this beer are sweet, strong and fruity but all in a well balanced way. The beer goes down smooth and is light bodied. A good beer to start for me with this brewery. I'd loved to try more of their beer options. Love the brewery's swag and have a t-shirt or two and would love to score a hoodie that I had my eye on but it was out of stock so I'll try back later.
