Salmon salad
Alia G.

Cute little grill in the middle of nowhere.... or what seems like the middle of nowhere. It's about 1/2 mile down the dirt road from Denali Lakeview Inn if you happen to be staying there which we were. Solid Eats. I was a little disappointed that my beer was warm, but I was thirsty and drank it anyways. The salmon on my salad was a bit dry, but tasty nonetheless. The little bits of mango and pecans were great additions to the salad that I would not normally do at home. Learned something new to do at home! My mom had the crab leg which was reasonably priced (IMO), was meaty and had really nice ( not too briny ) flavor. Note: if you happen to get the Paloma... it's a canned drink, and it's a sweet "cocktail".

Aug18 2022 (Thursday) Between 6:20 Pm and 7:25 Pm. Grilled chicken Fettuccine was ok, Ceasar salad was delicious. Anti-Pasto plater was unusual but tasty. Waitress was next to worthless. Served our food then promptly forgot about us. Won't be tipping her well whatsoever.

Empty plates!!! I forgot to take the picture earlier ... upppsss

Great little place hide away. Excellent views of the mountains, delicious food and great service. Super friendly staff ... also have some beers on tap- their white beer was so refreshing

Definitely recommend eating here for a more affordable dinner in Denali. We visited twice because…read morewe enjoyed our first pizza so much! On the first visit we sat at the bar to avoid the wait. Bartenders were friendly even though many were working their first day of the season. Ordered the cub size (12") Boreal Forest which is perfect for 2 people. Also had a few beers from their very long menu. Inside was cabin cozy. They also have outdoor seating. Overall, excellent experience! Boreal 5/5 stars. For our second visit, we needed a quick lunch between two excursions so we ordered pickup and tried the Homestead this time. Took 20 minutes from calling in to the pizza being ready which worked well. Homestead 4/5 stars, crust was still amazing but pizza felt like it needed something more. Very happy we found this place on our first day in Denali.

If I was just rating the pizza, it'd be a 4 stars cause we thoroughly enjoyed it. Average size for…read morethe price, good amount of cheese (almost too heavy personally) and pepperoni but fantastic crust. Super light, nice air bubbles and charred just enough but not burnt. Crust had nice structure/crumb and chew as well. Really solid overall and would definitely get it again. My few issues: -Saturday late afternoon/early evening I get it'll be busy but the front of house was just way unorganized and none of the staff seemed super helpful till I had actually ask someone where to place a to go order. I was literally standing in front of them and no one acknowledged me lol. It was also so cramped with people standing around everywhere for no reason it seemed. -We ordered to go as mentioned and they text you when your order is ready. Cool, not a problem. What they forgot to mention was you get a text as items on your order become ready. So you'll get your appetizers or whatever else that are quicker to make well before your actual pizza. Do you eat them hot in your car while waiting for the rest of your order? Or let them get cold and eat them when you get home later? Who does it that way?!? Absolutely ridiculous and so dumb. Have proper kitchen planning and make food so it all comes out hot and at once. -Just FYI, the ravioli appetizer for $16 came with 5 raviolis. Yeah you hear that right, only FIVE raviolis in an order for 16 bucks. That should be a crime and such a rip off. I expected at least 10 of them for that price. But hey, you get both marinara and pesto, so that's nice. -Last issue was when they brought my pizza, it didn't have my ranch's that I ordered and paid for. It took probably 5 minutes and the staff going back n forth 3 times saying someone must've taken them. It took a manager to get ranch's from the kitchen and bring them up front...Then tells the to go staff that the kitchen sent them with my ravioli that was sent half an hour earlier, which they didn't. Why was it so hard to get some ranch?! And I paid $50 for a pizza, appetizer and can of side, why would I lie about getting my extra sauce? Shouldn't have even been an issue for a dollar worth of ranch IMO.. I gave it a 3 star overall because the pizza was really good and would've given it a 4* on its own but everything else was a 2* as outlined above. Definitely things that could be improved upon at the end of the day, but they do make some really solid pizza.

I've been trying to find this place for a while…read more For so long, that I often thought it was myth. What? A bar? In Denali? You mean the park right? Not just the Denali area? You sure it's not some bar in "Glitter Gulch"? I've looked for it numerous times, with no luck. It's hard to describe where it is, you'll think you're driving in places you're not supposed to. (and maybe you aren't?) It's not a myth friends. Maybe I shouldn't even be listing it but, it *is* listed on other sites that fulfill similar niches to Yelp. And lack of beta is one of my criticisms about Alaska, so I'm doing my little part to change that. Anyway, this place is awesome! It's a building built up around two rail cars. It's hard to describe until you see it. The ambiance is probably the most "real" you'll find in the whole greater Denali area. Most of the folks here work or volunteer for the park (and also associated businesses) in some capacity, at least that's what it seemed like. Key features: Friendly bartenders, live music, beer and wine only. I don't know how they managed to do it, but the beer they have on tap is incredible. I saw stuff on tap here that I've never seen anywhere else in the state. For wine, they have a Bota Red and a Bota White. Also, it's cheap! Just about everything is $5! An unheard of price for Alaska, let alone touristy Alaska. They also make pizza and, although I didn't eat any, it looked pretty incredible. Worth a stop, just don't tell your friends! (note, the location I have pinned here is exactly where it is located, your GPS might not like it very much though, where's your sense of adventure, anyway?)

Although it was a cold and wet Alaskan night, inside was warm and comfy. We were seating pretty immediately even though it was packed, and our friend (who so graciously drove us here) recommended we try their Yak Burger. Usually I let my camera eat first, but the burger smelled so good, I ended up devouring it before I could even take a picture. One of the best burgers I've had in my life. The beers too were delicious. There's something for everyone here from light lagers to heavy stouts and even fruity ciders. You can't go wrong. Highly recommend stopping by 49th State Brewing.

Sounds like the majority of people have had a great experience but we are not a part of that group…read more We were seated at a high top and not a booth because we were a group of two. After 15 minutes of sitting with no service we moved to the bar. Strike 1. We ordered dinner at the bar. Diane ordered Alaskan Salmon and got Cod. Strike 2. They brought her Salmon and it was raw. The manager came by to apologize and even said, "we don't serve sushi here'" Strike 3. They brought her Salmon and again and as you can imagine, it was overcooked and dry. That went back and the manager once again apologized and said' "I need to teach these guys how to cook salmon." Strike 4. Diane had a bowl of soup but by then the entire dinner experience was trashed after a great day of hiking in Denali.

My first impression upon checking in at the hostess station and looking into the seating area, was that it might not be as good an experience as I'd hoped. I was wrong. They were jammed. We got seated at one of three 2-tops next to the open kitchen. Normally I enjoy being able to watch food being prepared but I thought it was going to be too loud and busy. Well, it was loud but tolerable and it was a very busy space but I really enjoyed watching the grill-man, the other prep folks as well as the 2 People doing the finishing touches, garnishes and delivering the food. Our server was Regan. What a pleasure she was. Really delightful, helpful and attentive. We ordered cocktails and an appetizer and slowly enjoyed both. Later, we ordered a single meal to share. We loved it! Here's what we had: Drinks: Cosmo cocktail Lavender Gin cocktail Blackberry Smash cocktail All the drinks were well crafted and very tasty. Appetizer: Halibut Bites Really nice appetizer. Salad: Wedge with Blue Cheese dressing The salad was large enough to share and we asked for some extra dressing. Really good. Side: Marscapone Potato Gratin These were really special. Love it. Main: Prime Beef Filet with Lobster Herb Butter Oh my word, super tender and flavorful. If we find ourselves back in the area, we'd eat here again!
