    Brunch!
    Carrie G.

    Wow this place was really good. We came about noonish on a Saturday in January. There was only a few people inside but did fill up as we were sitting. I got the croissant French toast. It was really good. Came in a bowl and it was sitting in syrup. Could have done without that as it because drowned in syrup. I got bacon on the side as suggested and it was cooked with syrup. Again it was good and it made it very sticky and rich. The potatoes were very good from another entree too. Also the fresh whipped cream was super good. Very impressed and I really want to come out and try the dinner menu sometime.

    Our favorite place to frequent when coming to Girdwood. The menu is very professionally done, every item has expansive flavor. Not only does the food keep us coming back but the staff do as well, we make it a point to stop in at least twice in a trip because the ambiance of Spoonline is fantastic and the people are even better!

    This is a small restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating (weather dependent). Inside is always calm and quiet, the employees are friendly and I've never had an issue with something I've ordered. The portions are on the larger side and I almost always have left overs.

    Spoonline is beyond amazing. We came here on a whim and did have to wait a bit for a table, but it was so worth it. We ended up sitting at the small bar by the door but it was totally fine and comfortable. Our server (blonde woman, didn't catch her name) was great and impressed me with her detailed knowledge of the menu. After seeing what others' were ordering, my fiancé decided on the pork chops and I got the Thai yellow curry along with a glass of white wine. I don't think we've had anything this good in a long time. The ingredients were so fresh, flavors blended and complementary, and presentation appealing. They even convinced us to get dessert (cheesecake) which we never get and had no room for but really, we were eager to see their spin on it. I can't wait to come back and try some of their other dishes. This is true culinary excellence, y'all!

    Traveling from out of state for a conference. I ordered my first Lox bagel in Alaska to-go, and unfortunately I had seen the menu on yelp and did not realize it was outdated. After a 20 minute wait, I received my bagel and the bill for $30 plus tax. I couldn't believe it. After I ate it I was even more disappointed, it was ok. Would not recommend. Menu picture has been updated.

    Inside the restaurant was small but the feel was decidedly upscale, with black and white photographs on the wall and clean, modern lines - not cluttered at all. I was thinking it would make a good place for a date but the clientele was of all ages. The menu was on the pricey side - I paid $36 for shrimp and grits (the most I've ever paid for said dish), all because I was in a feminine funk and needed a pick me up. The presentation was lovely and the dish had a nice flavor, a little heat/spice which was nice. The shrimp was just okay (one less star for that), but them grits were mmm mmm good. I couldn't eat everything since it was so hearty and filling - just what you'd want for comfort food. I ended up taking my leftovers to go and I find myself still in that feminine funk but that's got nothing to do with Spoonline Bistro, that's just human nature doing human things. Speaking of human - I loved, loved, loved the servers at this place. They were warm and accommodating, welcoming. At one point I was staring at one of the black and white prints on the wall when one of the servers checked on me. I told her the snowy mountains looked like dessert to me so I had to order dessert and she nicely agreed instead of calling me a weirdo, but I digress. If dessert is not on your diet approved list, maybe don't stare at the photos on the wall coz you'll end up thinking of frosting which will make you think of cake and before you know it, you've ordered a triple layer carrot cake and are munching on it as you're contemplating life and staring at Turnagain, waiting for the bore tide to come in.

    Breakfast burrito

    Cute little restaurant that's only open a few days a week in the morning. Luckily we were in town for one of the three days they serve breakfast. Our server was friendly and quick. Ordered the breakfast burrito and monte Cristo sandwich. Both were presented well and tasted really good. The burrito was one of the best we've had. Dining room is tiny and I assume on busier days you might have to wait outside but they do have a couple of seats outside too.

    Duck confit eggs Benedict *special*
    Alana C.

    The best French toast I've ever had. It was made from croissants! It was so tender! Served with warm maple syrup, real whip cream and a dusting of cinnamon. My husband tried the special, duck confit eggs Benedict. He liked his but preferred traditional ham to the duck. We also had a couple of mimosas to wash everything down. Service was excellent, environment was clean, cozy and art-y. They've got the new 49th state brewing sodas (pumpkin pie & wild blueberry) and huge cookies for sale too. Love this little place. The rotating specials and diverse (and delicious) thoughtfully flavored menu will keep us coming back for more :)

    Really enjoyed the new dish - food, flavor, and service made it memorable. Loved the Fresno chile sauce

    Apple, Ginger + Carrot Soup

    I made the move and ordered the soup of the day the other weekend--like a true fan girl. And y'all... I'm still dreaming about it. Apple, carrot, and ginger?! I could literally drink that on repeat forever. Like, put it in an IV, I'm ready. SERIOUSLY. And don't even get me started on the Apple Brie Croissant (I added bacon as well). The crunch? The sweet-meets-savory drama?? Iconic. 10/10 would order it all again.

    Croissant French Toast

    Absolutely, without a doubt, if you come up Girdwood/Alyeska, you must stop here. We had brunch, but I can only imagine that dinner (the menu looked great) is amazing, too. We arrived about 20 minutes before closing. The staff had no problem seating us. We got: Croissant French Toast - Excellent. 100% recommend this. Croque Monsiuer - This was cheesy and great. Next time, I would share this and get another appetizer to share too.

    Charred Trumpet Mushroom with hot fennel and roasted new potatoes.

    After years of passing by we finally had the chance to enjoy ourselves at Spoonline Bistro. First impressions upon walking in was the cleanliness and artistic charm. We were greeted promptly and sat at our two top. For a Monday at 6pm there was only a few tables seated at the time of entry. The music playing was nice, and the local art for sale on the walls was aesthetically pleasing. Each table had a small bouquet of fresh flowers and a candle. After sitting we were promptly offered menus and a wine list then were poured water. We decided to open with Manila clams and an arugula salad. The clams were a generous portion ample for 2 to share with the plate of toast points. The sauce had a nice balance of lemon/citrus, garlic and wine. The little kicker I was able to pull out of the sauce was minced ginger. It brought another level to the clam dish and I will add this to my own recipe in the future. The Arugula salad again was a dinner sized portion perfect for two to share. Clean, peppery and well balanced with a light vinaigrette and topped with shaved almond and dried blueberries and feta crumble. Delicious! Decided to share a bottle of McBride Sisters sparkling brut rosé. This bottle ended being a great pairing with the flavor profile of our starters. Recommended by our waitress whom was attentive and brought the bottle out in a chiller, popped and poured for us. Decided to go with the charred trumpet mushrooms with a hot fennel chimichurri, roasted new potatoes and carrot purée. This dish was spectacular! On point with all of the best dishes I've had the pleasure to eat when going out. Eye appealing, flavorful and well presented. A dish like this is what inspires me to do more as a home cook. I highly recommend this dish. I did add the fresh Kodiak scallops which were tender, moist and not over cooked. Yum! My queen decided to go with the porcini pasta. A very generous portion of creamy umami mushroom rotini that is comfort to the max! Plenty to take home and enjoy the following day. Over all I would rate this dining experience a 5 though will reserve at a 4 until I come back and check for consistency in service and quality of food. Please note that this establishment does not take reservations unless seating a larger party. I will be back to eat here sooner than later. Definitely worth driving the 1-1/2 hours one way. Yeah. That good. Well done Spoonline Bistro. I'll see you for brunch. Food - 5 Service - 5 Atmosphere - 4

    Can't beat a window view

    For some reason, i avoided Spoonline - maybe because they were "new" and i expected there to be the usual kinks associated with a newer restaurant. I don't really have a reason. And i already had my go-to restaurant for Girdwood: Chair 5, however my go-to restaurant is no longer my go-to, and has now become my not-going-back-there-again, due to them having new ownership, and a menu that i dislike. I could always have switched to Double Musky, but sometimes i just don't feel like eating half a cow, plus sides, and a salad. So, I thought I'd try Spoonline - what hooked me was the Vongole on the appetizers menu. I love Mussels, or Clams in broth, and use it as a benchmark to measure a restaurant by. If they do it well, I'll return. So, we arrive and fortunately, it's summer, and very pleasant here. A nice little parking lot in the back, with some covered tables, and a heater if you'd like to sit outside in lovely weather. It's a lovely little rustic, cabiny sort of a building on the outside. Hanging baskets etc. The dining room is lovely, nice and modern looking, good art on the walls, and not loads of kitschy stuff. I like that. It's not cluttered, it has a spacious airy feel. I try the bathroom out, because i usually do, in order to evaluate whether their standards extend to the bathrooms. I can confirm, the bathroom is very nice and modern. We were seated immediately, and brought water. I like that the water doesn't have ice (I'm English, i don't like a glassful of ice and 2 inches of pop) the dinner menu is small, which sometimes is a blessing, because looking at a huge menu and trying to decide can be daunting. I already knew what i wanted anyway - The Vongole, which is clams in white wine, garlic, butter and herbs, and comes with sliced baguette. Now here is where my benchmark comes into play. The last place i had mussels, failed to bring me a bowl for my empty shells, did not have cutlery to get the seafood out of the shells, and also didn't serve any kind of bread with it, which, as far as I'm concerned is a travesty. One of the best parts of clams or mussels in a broth is dipping bread into the delicious broth. If i don't get it, I'm not happy. Blake ordered the shrimp and grits, and i also got the fried polenta from the appetizer menu. He got Root Beer, i got Mexican Cola, the server (he was lovely, very helpful) brought us glasses with cute small ice (which went untouched) and in a short amount of time, out came my huge bowl of clams. I'd already been given a bowl for my empty shells, and the cute little fork and spoon to eat them with, so you know, we are looking good. And those clams! Epic! If i were NICE and I'm really not, I'd have shared them, as there's enough. These clams! OMG! Juicy, fat, every single one was open, and tender. Sprinkled liberally with garlic and herbs, and three toasty pieces of baguette. I immersed one into the broth straightaway. To get it soaking up that luscious juice. I'd never say that something had too much garlic, because can such a thing even occur? But these clams have a lot, and i absolutely love that, visually you can see lots of herbs and garlic, and it's buttery smooth, and silky, and the clams just slipped right out of the shells with almost no effort on my part. I wouldn't normally behave so disgustingly, but these clams were so good i dispensed with my normal ladylike "Eat 1 clam at a time" and i sat and pulled them all out of the shells, and let them sit in the broth so it was like a clam soup. It made it that much faster for me to get more in my mouth at once. I decided i should really try the fried polenta that was sitting untouched - i couldn't step away from the clams - it was presented beautifully. It had a soft interior, and a crispy outside and was topped with something like a pepper/tomato salsa/jam type of relish, tasted almost like it had balsamic in it, very tasty, and a liberal sprinkling of manchego. If I'm honest, i prefer a wet, creamy polenta (preferably made with a solid hunk of grated cheddar and topped with an assortment of mushrooms and a poached egg) but all polenta is good. I think if i had not gotten myself so besotted with the clams, I'd have enjoyed my fried polenta more. I ate a couple of pieces, but the clams were calling my name. Eventually, with about maybe 8 left in the bowl, i was groaning because i was so full. The Vongole are on the appetizer menu. Very filling and a great value sharing plate, and an absolutely wonderful flavour. I can't stop thinking about how good they were. I want more and will definitely return. Of all the clams/mussels I've tried in Alaska, these were, hands down my Number 1. Blake enjoyed his shrimp and grits - I'm not a fan of cooked shrimp, unless it's tempura, or breaded. But his grits were good. I'm also not keen on Cajun flavors, so i didn't really enjoy that when i tasted it. Spoonline can consider themselves my new go-to in Girdwood.

    Good service. Had a burrito. Was on point. Price was right. A solid choice if you're in Girdwood…read moreand are looking for something filling and tasty to go with a local brew.

    I'm giving them 3 stars because I really think they have a lot of potential and would love to see…read morethem succeed! We were so optimistic - they're a bit off the beaten path (away from the subway and craziness on the corner) - basically a food truck with a picnic table - plus no one was in line - perfect (we thought). There was a guy taking orders and a guy cooking and there was 2 of us - perfect (we thought). I ordered chips and salsa, 1 chicken taco on a corn tortilla, a side of rice, and a Diet Coke (which the cook said he had) and my husband ordered the house burrito. After a surprisingly long time, our order was ready and we were served 2 steak tacos and chips and salsa. What?! Wait, then he brought some rice but set it aside. I ended up eating the steak tacos while he made the burrito and I asked for the rice and now he wasn't sure he had Diet Coke and seemed a little put out about checking because now he had some more customers he was trying to cook for. When I got the rice I figured out why he had tried to hide them (he should have thrown the rice and started again) - I think the pan used to cook the steak was used then to warm up the rice because the rice was full of little burned, charbroiled pieces of something. The chips and salsa were good - no guacamole. My husband thought his burrito was ok - I didn't like the steak taco - should've asked to redo with the chicken I had ordered so that was on me. Hopefully they can turn things around - potential!

    This place is one of our favorites in girdwood…read more Everything was exceptional. Steak cooked perfectly how I wanted. Cod with the skin still was over the top. Sweet cheeks was our favorite, halibut lettuce wrap. Super busy on NYE and the service was amazing for how busy it was. The exterior and interior are beautiful and definitely feels "homey" .

    We had a mixed experience at Jack Sprat…read more Service timing was rough. It took over an hour from ordering to get our main dishes. About 1.5 hours from when we were seated. We did get the dip bread appetizer about 15 minutes after ordering which helped. Then we waited another full hour after finishing it before our food arrived. The food was inconsistent. The chow fun noodles were undercooked. More like al dente pasta which does not work for a Chinese dish. The burgers came with fries that were cold and hard. They did fix that quickly and brought fresh fries which were much better. The wagyu burger was the biggest disappointment. The meat tasted very gamey. That is not what you expect from wagyu which should be rich and buttery. I ended up trying to cover the taste with toppings just to eat it. Not enjoyable. Our child did enjoy her grass fed beef burger and had no complaints. The atmosphere is great. Live music adds a nice touch. We also liked the shop next door and the outdoor wood fire. We like this place and wanted it to be a great experience. The food and timing just missed the mark this time. Hoping they improve because the setting is really nice.
