Our group ended up having dinner at Caboose lounge from our driver who actually lives in Palmer…read more The restaurant wasn't busy but by it being in a small town, a group of 24 could have overwhelmed them but it did not. They have a large choice of food items and they serve breakfast all day. We ordered corn fritters w honey butter to try. They were amazing! I had two and could have eaten more but my dinner hadn't come out yet. I ordered the Halibut fish & chips. I was impressed how tasty they were. Perfectly fried and seasoned well. The tartar sauce was good. The cole slaw was okay so I tried the potato salad which was better. Overall great meal! Since we had a large party, they ran out of desserts before I had a chance to order. The 17 kids in the group were able to get order desserts, the adults did not. No worries. The trip was for the kids.

But so many options makes the possibilities feel almost endless. The bacon is crispy. If you like your bacon chewy, maybe ask for it that way. I like mine crispy and it's been that way EVERY SINGLE TIME. YAY! - - THE DOWNSIDE The decaf coffee is not great. I've had it three times and I think it's instant coffee, maybe? Whatever it is, it's bad. In a state with so much great coffee, this seems like a point that shouldn't be bad. Sigh* The over medium eggs are really over easy. This is a bummer. The diner of Alaska that can make me true over medium eggs will forever earn my patronage. - - Conclusion It's okay the coffee is bad, because they had a porter on tap which was almost like drinking an iced coffee. At least that's what I'm going with. =]

There's a certain feel you get when you step foot into the Captain Cook. The old charm and elegance…read morehas become nostalgic and yet very comforting. Head just past the reception desk and a few beautiful art galleries and you'll find yourself at Whale's Tail, a bar/restaurant where good food, great drinks and live music stand out. You'll always find a good drink and there's "nothing gross on the menu" as one waitress put it. I have found their staff to be highly knowledgeable in wine and drink selection, happy to answer any questions. Their food is really good and at Alaska prices (there's always a theme here with my reviews) you pretty much break even. It's comfort food but served in a more elegant fashion. It might just be the white table cloths, candles and dim lights, who really knows it still tastes great. If you're in the mood for some delicious comfort food with healthier options and not at Crow's Neat prices, you might just find Wail's Tail is your place to be! The accept reservations too and keep and eye out for their music line up. Jazz night is also fun.

There were excellent appetizer finger foods to snack on during a high stakes game of trivia where you could win up to $1000! We didn't win big but do recommend trivia night with apps and drinks for a great atmosphere and fun night out in Anchorage.

Spenard Roadhouse is a great spot for solid comfort food. I originally planned on getting the fried…read morechicken sandwich, but they were out, so I went with the grilled chicken sandwich instead. It turned out to be delicious; the pesto-style sauce added great flavor, and the tater tots on the side were really good. The service was great throughout the meal, and the restaurant has a nice, welcoming ambiance. Overall, it was a very satisfying stop, worth checking out

One of the most reviewed places that we saw, so we gotta try it. We came after a day at the…read moreglaciers, so we were hungry. No reservations but they were able to accommodate us really fast. Started with a cocktail, I got their rhubarbra Streisand, it was delicious except you needed to crush the ice to get that strawberry flavor out and use a spoon because the straw is a paper straw and disintegrate fast. For apps, we did the bacon burnt ends, which was really tasty. It was a lot too, so definitely shareable. For my entree I got their jambalaya. And omg, the portion can feed 3-4 people. It was a lot. It's like they are preparing you for the winter months to hibernate. It came with shrimp, salmon, and reindeer sausage. It was good, except felt like the reindeer sausage had a gamey taste that I was not fond of. Didn't like it in a seafood dish, bc I tried it as a hot dog and in a burrito and liked it. So maybe for me, just didn't like the mix of reindeer sausage with seafood. My friend got their grilled halibut. Came with a mountain of orzo, it was good too but very heavy on the carbs. We didn't finish and took it back to the hotel. Huge portions! Good food and drinks. Come hungry and leave 5lbs heavier.
