Why did I not know this place existed??? I drive by on my morning commute daily!!…read more My husband and three big construction co-workers went the day prior to him taking me back there. The food was so plentiful not one of those big strapping guys could finish their lunch. We shared the Dirty Bird and that sandwich was piled high with so many goodies I wasn't sure that I could take a bite....but trust me, I managed. And such great potato salad!!! They make it and the pasta salads there on site. I cannot wait to go back and try their green salad entrees. Adding to the great menu was an equally great staff! So nice to chat with while we waited for our food. Unless you're getting your food to go, take your goodies upstairs to the mezzanine and eat while enjoying the scenery!!

Sometimes you just want something simple, comforting with a touch of nostalgia for lunch. Cue the…read moreclassic soup & sandwich combo. I got a lovely lunch from Sherrie's Valley Cafe in Wasilla. It's a small cafe located inside a medical office building. They use Boar's Head deli meats in their sandwiches, and also serve salads, snacks & soup. This location used to be known as the breadcrumb whose owner moved to a distant location. I ordered the "Optimus Prime" which included roast beef, pepper jack cheese, horseradish, bell peppers, red onion & jalapeños. There were quite a few sides to choose from & I went with the Mac salad. The other options were chips, potato salad & pasta salad or soup for an up charge. Since the soup of the day was loaded baked potato I ordered a cup of it as well. If you're looking for a quick service lunch spot in the valley then you should check out Sherrie's cafe. It was a delicious & comforting lunch. Seating is very limited, but available counter style! They don't have an insta, but regularly post to Facebook. Sherrie is a sweetheart and customer service was excellent!

Chinese food as good as it gets. As good as the best in SF or NYC. I can taste that this…read morerestaurant uses top quality ingredients for its food. It has the best taste for Chinese food. As expected, the restaurant was crowded. After thirty minutes, it was hard to find an available table. Food is ordered at a counter, then a waiter takes it to the table. Portions were large. Fried rice tasted just right. It was piled high and I special ordered it without peas. It was prepared correctly. Five stars! Pot stickers were good. 4 stars. My wife had beef chow fun and that was five stars and the portion was large. Self serve soft drinks are available with unlimited refills. Strongly recommend this for anyone who likes good Chinese food. Our bill with tip was over $60. No sales tax in Anchorage.

Genuinely not sure how to rate this place. It was absolutely an unexpected find in a place I did…read morenot expect a Chinese bakery, let alone dim sum. For clarity: this rating is off the dim sum and dim sum-type dishes alone. Did not try the baked goods (aside from dan tat) or the rice plates/noodle plates, which seem to make up most of the menu. And the dim sum is... hit or miss. The bok choy is a generous portion, properly cooked, not the most interesting, but not bad. Spicy shrimp won tons are on the small side but tasty, although lacking in the umami that their better-known competitors (especially starting with a "D") begin with. Shu mai (shrimp or chicken, I got shrimp) were the most average/solid of the bunch, which to be fair, is entirely adequate. Har gow looked very pretty, but the skins were too thick, both skins and filling decidedly missing in flavor. The bean curd wrap was giant, super-sized vs. what you'd normally see, and while the bean curd wrap was on-point, the pork filling was pretty plain. This extended to the lo mai gai (sticky rice), which was ENORMOUS, like triple the size of what you'd see at normal dim sum, and similarly plain filling. To their credit, the quality of the stick rice itself was quite good, and the amount of filling was ample. Finally, the dan tat. Crust was a bit too crumbly and lacking in richness of the better ones, and the filling was oddly wrinkled, like it'd cooled too fast. However, the filling quality was good enough. They were busy when I walked in for dinner and were completely full a few minutes later, so much kudos to them-- they clearly are appreciated by the community, and it shows. Some diners at the table next to mine got the usual rice/noodle plates and many left quite full, so portions are good. Kitchen, as busy as they are, is both fast enough and a bit uneven. Short version: you're in Alaska, you can't expect what you get in 415 or 626. However, don't get too carried away either.

Since this place was just down the street from our hotel, we decided to give them a try. Not only…read morewas their service top-notch, but the food was great and reasonably priced (for Alaska)--we enjoyed it so much we ate here twice during our stay. The restaurant is very open and offers plenty of seating (more than enough for a large group). They're only open for breakfast & lunch, so plan accordingly. First visit/Breakfast: their chicken friend steak was the star of the show! Perfectly seasoned, tender and topped with delicious sausage gravy. Second visit/Lunch: Wonderfully perfect halibut sandwich was delicious and their kid's burger was pretty solid. Between the great food, friendly service and clean, spacious dining room Heidi's is definitely worth the trip! We will most definitely make a point to return next time we're in town.

I drove to three different spots around town, looking for a tuna sandwich…read more This place had one. Fast friendly service. Chose the tuna on white 6". But it was a way bigger bun than expected. Glad I didn't get the 12", it was huge! Served with choice of cheese , lettuce tomato onions Mayo mustard.

The tuna was good, not the sweet tuna I was hoping for, but it was good. Small dining area , three booths and about 10 bar stools to dine in. Great little place.

I haven't eaten here in quite some time, so I need to do another review in the future.

I'd been wanting to go here for the longest time, having seen someone having an afternoon tea through the window. Finally today, we decided to go. I was sure they did lunch items, but couldn't find a menu anywhere. The server apologized and handed me a menu, and pointed out the soup specials. Husband selected the loaded baked potato soup, and I chose the curried egg salad sandwich. He got an Americano (because there was no drip available) and I requested English Breakfast Tea, noticing that they had big black tubs of teas around the shelves. I requested skim milk (it wasn't available) and had to settle for whole milk. At this stage I'll point out that I am 100% English, I moved here in 2012, and it's difficult to get a good strong cup of English Breakfast Tea in town (The Perfect Cup was a noticeable exception to this, and were indeed the perfect cup of strong English black tea) but I had high hopes for somewhere called a Tea Lounge. His coffee was served quickly, but I waited a while for my tea. It arrived with the milk already in it, and had virtually no colour at all, so I could instantly tell, it wasn't strong enough. I took a sip, couldn't taste any tea, and I took it to the counter and asked for an extra tea bag. 2 of the counter staff seemed to need to deal with this issue, and kept my mug of tea behind the counter, and I was sent to the cashier to pay $5 for a brand new cup to be made. I'm quite outraged by this. I had already paid for the tea, my tea was made wrong, I was happy to pay to add an extra tea bag, or leaves to the cup I already had, or have them remake it to my liking, but I am aghast to have to pay twice for one mug of tea. After another wait, the tea was brought to the table - no milk, so I asked for milk. A jug of milk was brought, but no spoon to stir with. Again, this was weak tea. I have tea bags sent to me from home, I make it for myself every morning. This was weak tea. I had asked them to make the second mug STRONG. Am I not making myself clear? Anyway, the dining room was mostly empty, a reserved table's customers came in, and there was a guy sitting in a corner space. We had to wait an interminably long time, for a bowl of soup and cold sandwich requiring no cooking. The server brought the soup out 1st, soup splashed all over the plate. It was a nice big bowl. However, the potatoes in this soup are not baked potatoes, they're boiled. The bacon has not been cooked prior to putting it in the soup. And every other time I've had loaded baked potato soup, it's got a creamy broth. This is a runny broth. I love loaded baked potato soup, but that didn't look appealing to me at all. My egg salad sandwich followed, I was even more disappointed by this I think. I believe this egg salad is prepared in a food processor, as there are no discernible pieces of egg, it's kind of like a spread if you will, and a very thin one. A smear on one side of the bread. However if you love arugula, and tomatoes, you'd like this sandwich, because they are violently, aggressively abundant with it, to the point that I could not taste any curried egg salad whatsoever. I'll stick to making my own, at home, I shred the egg in a grater so there aren't big chunks of egg, but it still has the egg salad flavour. This was bland. Like I say, all I could taste was arugula. Best thing about this - the potato chips were fresh. I do feel VERY disappointed and let down by my experience today. It was an expensive lunch, an even more expensive mug of mediocre tea, which is ludicrous in a place calling themselves a Tea Lounge. I won't be revisiting, no matter how pretty the space.

Quaint little tea house in Anchorage with high ceilings and an intimate seating area. There are…read moresome really cozy looking chairs and fun couches to lounge on. I came here for high tea which was something new, so I had no point of reference on what to expect. Overall, I'd give it a B. The food items were good and presented in an attractive way, and I felt very ladylike eating such dainty little treats! Plenty enough for two people, I even took some home. An entire small pot of tea plus a free re-steeping is included in the cost of your ticket. Price wise, I would say everything was more than reasonable for Anchorage. My only complaint, and I'm not sure I would even call it that? is that our server seemed a little unfamiliar with the operation. In her own world a lot. Ended up cashing ourselves out at the front which was probably preferred anyway I'm sure I will be back.
