I Love how they grill the chicken so that it gets that perfect lil blackened crispy of the sauces sugars on it! The Kailua pork was tender, moist and full of flavor. The Mac salad is a good compliment to the pork and creates a mellow blend. Ssssshhhhhoot - I'll be returning here! And in case you're wondering - Yes they are better than L&L in quality, quantity and flavor.

Did a lunch pickup. I haven been in many years. It's not as good as I remember. I got the super…read morecombo with pulehu chicken and kalbi, no macaroni salad. The chicken was tender but not super flavorful. The kalbi was just fine but nothing to write home about. It may be because I haven been eating quite a bit of Korean food lately. The kalbi I've had elsewhere is just better. I didn't get the macaroni salad because I didn't care for it when I've eaten here before. I actually prefer L&L macaroni salad. The portion size was good for the price though.

The burgers looked and tasted like frozen low quality, bulk-packaged patties. They were dry and tasteless. Fries were warm but not hot. Like last visit, it was extremely noisy. The waitresses load carts with dirty dishes right next to the tables with LOTS of loud clanging & clattering. Probably won't be back.

The accommodations were absolutely wonderful--comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The staff truly made the experience unforgettable. Every single person we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was outstanding--delicious, fresh, and consistently impressive throughout our stay. And the valet service? Exceptional!! Seamless, efficient, and always delivered with a smile. This has officially become our NEW favorite place to stay when we're in Anchorage. We're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly, highly recommend! Rooms We had a room on the 16th floor... the views were mindblowing.. the room so comfortable absolute perfection. Nearby activities Centrally located, we were there for medical reasons and just 5 min. from the Drs. offices. Safety We felt perfectly safe the entire time and went for several walks to explore the city. Walkability Convenient to EVERYTHING! Perfect location! Food & drinks We ate at the Crow's Nest, Fletchers and grabbed coffee at the Cubby all were delightful and delicious! Noteworthy details Valet staff was outstanding in every way, always pleasant, remembered our faces, so professional, we didn't have to lift a finger, if we didn't want to. Next time we will make sure to hit the Spa! Hotel highlights Luxury, Great view, Romantic, Quiet, Great value

I booked this hotel because of the history and the convenience. Upon arrival the front desk was…read morevery friendly and efficient. As I walked through the lobby and in the elevators I was taken aback by how outdated this place was. This was especially apparent in the elevator with the gaudy faux gold hand rails and the smelly outdated carpet. It felt 1980's for sure! The room was average at best. I did have lunch and dinner at their restaurants and was very disappointed except for one (I will drop reviews on those restaurants). I love the history. But it's not enough for me to pay top dollar for an average hotel room. I will not be coming back.

Mostly because they shuttle people back and forth with little room for independent travel. I won a couple tickets and night stay in one of the lodges that included rail transportation. I actually had a decent time riding the rail, listening to the tour guide, and having alcoholic drinks on the way. The workers were very gracious and polite, which dealing with cranky old people all day you have to give them a bit of credit. I would recommend this mode of travel even though you don't have the options to move around to different cars, gift shop, and two eating cars like you would had you rode the AK RR. There is a dining car beneath the seating area, but we did not dine there, though there were some good smells wafting up to the seat car.

We selected a room with a balcony which is always well worth the money. Overall, we had a good time. The ship was dated, but hit the ports we were interested in visiting and we chose this itinerary because it went southbound one way and didn't waste time doing a round trip thus able to cover more ground and different sites. Skip the spa. Absolutely not worth it. The facility and the inexperienced masseuses on cruise ships are a complete waste of money. I've thrown enough money down the drain optimistically hoping it would be better, but it's not. Do something else, anything else. The views of icebergs passing right in front of your balcony are unforgettable. Everyone must visit Alaska once in their lives.

"North to Alaska We're goin' north, the rush is on"…read more(Elvis Presley) Never having gone on a vacation cruise, I really didn't know with any degree of certainty what to expect. I expected a small cabin and a lot of food, right? That's what I've heard my whole life. Well, I was very happy to learn my #1 expectation was very wrong, and my #2 expectation proved to be incomplete. Our cabin wasn't that small at all. We had a King sized bed, a big flat screen on the wall, a desk, two night stands, a big closet, and lots of storage nooks and crannies everywhere. We had enough room to store what we brought in two large suitcases, The bathroom was small,. but not the very smallest - I am 1,000% sure I've seen some smaller bathrooms in hotels. How can I describe the ship? The Pacific Princess was massive, like a floating downtown city block that's seven stories high and can accommodate 2,600 guests. The physical beauty on the ship is all around you. You'll see multiple swimming pools and hot tubs, concert halls and entertainment venues, and jewelry and clothing stores. They have 5 sit down restaurants (better get reservation), a few smallish food locations (think pizza, nachos, burgers and dogs), a few scattered coffee shops, a dozen bars, and of course a humongous buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We used one of their restaurants for lunch and a few dinners, and hit the buffet for the other meals. I didn't expect there to be so much entertainment, programs, and shows on board. You get a slick event schedule every night to let you know what's going on the next day. As I write this I'm looking at the Event Listings for July 18 -Day 4. Here's what I see:a photography lesson, bible study, Sudoko, Bridge, Mah Jong, Pickelball and Chess, Quiz and trivia contests, Bingo, Ping Pong and 3 on 3 basketball competition, an Arts and Craft Project of the Day, outdoor movies on a swimming pool deck, line dancing classes, small concerts and big elaborate Vegas style revues, and hundreds of shore excursion options. Planning each day is a challenge to match your schedule with their options, and a time of day or night that works for you. They even host Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. No mention of the cruise is complete without the staff on board, and there must have been 200 waiters, servers, attendants, entertainment hosts, musicians and dancers. Every single server we came we interacted with had a 500 mega watt smile. Now everyone knows the word "medallion" right? Well on a Princess Cruise your medallion serves as your wallet. You get a small gizmo with the Princess logo and you wear it on a neck lanyard at all times. It's a way you unlock your cabin door, to get your drinks charged to your room, and its also a security measure to know how many folks leave the boat during shore excursion time. After we left Vancouver, we stopped at Ketchikan, Juneau, Scagway, Glacier Bay National Park, and Anchorage. Most of the cruisers had shore excursions booked, and many just walked around the towns to soak in that local flavor. To wrap this up, I have to say I really enjoyed our Cruise a lot. Princess was terrific.
