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.

The Halibut was well worth the up charge versus the Cod, I am not saying the Cod is bad because I didn't try it, but the Halibut was excellent! The Mac N Chz flavor was incredible, but it could have been a bit warmer when delivered. We sat at the bar and our bartender Sarah provided the best service we have had at any restaurant while in our two week trip. She happened to to be from Tennessee like we are so that made for great conversation. I am not sure how old Karstens PH is, but the facility looks great. The wood beams look brand new and everything was very clean. Overall this was an excellent experience, we highly recommend.

Loved it! While in…read moreDenali, Alaska on vacation, we decided to have our 29th wedding anniversary dinner here at Canton Steakhouse. 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!

I know where…read moreit's located so not super surprising but my only knock was it being on the pricer side for what you get. Not a lot of space inside (basically standing only) and with it being very cold outside, it was also cold inside too so we opted to just eat our food in the car with heat on lol. Service was pleasant and quick but food did take a minute with what seemed to not be too many orders ahead or people waiting...But we weren't in a rush so no biggie. The hot dogs were tasty and seemed to be good quality too. Just a tad on the small side for $10 dogs in my opinion. Had they have been 1/4 lb dogs like a Costco dog, that'd be well worth it and I'd have zero complaints. Chili was also very tasty (no beans as it should be) and a fine amount of cheese. Fries were crispy and seasoned nice as well. Just a big smaller order than I'd expect for $7 but again, it's kinda what you'll expect in a heavy touristy area. Everything came out very hot and fresh which I appreciate as well. We'd definitely stop by again next time around Denali!

The food was fantastic. We had wine for dinner by the glass. Service was excellent (Caleb) and the manager was attentive.

Chunks of potatoes and various seafood. We had a dessert to share- Moose Tracks- perfect chocolate moose with Dulce de leche and candied pecans. Topped off with baileys and coffee. Reservations were ready when we arrived. There were a lot of people- so it helped. Not fancy - so come dressed as you were for your tour and enjoy a great meal and spectacular views.
