    amazing service! always 10/10! food is amazing and so cheap for anchorage! my go-to for lunch!

    Lunch menu

    I've been to this little restaurant (through the drive through) a few times and it never fails. They have good food, good portions, and good prices. The breakfast burritos are always cooked on demand and sandwiches and side salads are fresh. Because of that, there may be a line of cars, but it's worth the wait!

    Here I splurged for a $2.50 iced latte, but their 12 oz hot latte is a caffeinated bargain at $2.

    Tl;dr $2 lattes and legit reindeer breakfast burritos. These are the best on-the-fly reindeer breakfast burritos I've found in Anchorage, but beware: you need to eat them over a table or ask for a large to-go container to eat over. I've definitely dropped off dry cleaning with traces of salsa from these burritos. Like life, these burritos are messy but good. The owner here is a personable entrepreneur and prepares the food from scratch. Disregard the collection of vehicles, pallets, and old appliances around the drive through. Similarly, disregard the menu's typos: while misspellings like "notella" crepes might have geeks like me furrowing our brows, the Nutella crepes are a worthwhile reward for not dwelling on misspellings and punctuation. ((Also, please don't dwell on my spelling and grammar errors in my Yelp reviews lol.)) The massive English muffin sandwiches are another breakfast standout here. The menu is surprisingly extensive for a drive through. I haven't had lunch here but love coming here for a fast, filling breakfast and the best-priced latte I've found in town.

    An above average (but not excellent) latte at a lower-than-expected price. Ordering and pick-ups make for a 2-step system. Our order was taken at the first station right away and the wait to get to the window was a few minutes. We ordered a 16oz latte for $2.50 which is a bargain. It looked decent, with light froth. The taste was above average but not super yummy. As a whole, it was properly made.

    Piles of junk right out front

    Alright. So I'm driving by and am hungry, but don't have a lot of time. At first I wasn't even sure if the place was open until I got around the front where an open sign was visible. The amount of junk and vehicles parked everywhere is confusing. Maybe the owners store extra crap on the property because they can? Eye sores in every direction. But again, I'm hungry and pressed for time so I give it a go. After ordering my breakfast sandwich in the drive through I pull up to the window. Oh. My. Gawd. The window itself was filthy. Like they've never windexed it. Ever. Finger prints and smudges and splashes and splatters, oh my. There was a sign on the window saying closed at noon on 1/12. It's 1/14. Take the sign down already. As I waited I couldn't help but look around inside through the dirty glass. Boxes of receipts and papers in several places, literally just looked like junk everywhere with no organization, rhyme or reason. I noticed the steaming wand on the espresso machine was caked with burnt on milk because it hadn't been cleaned. I was very happy I didn't order coffee after seeing that but looking at the mess everywhere I became nervous about the conditions my food was being cooked in. The woman at the window was pleasant but after I pulled away I got a strong smell of burnt bread. Once I got to my office and opened up my croissant sandwich it was definitely burnt. I think the place has potential but it needs a serious cleaning, a ton of crap removed from the property and far better attention to detail. I would have rather waited longer for a sandwich that wasn't burnt then be rushed off with something barley edible. Mind you no one was waiting behind me. I won't go back nor would I recommend. Just gross. The lack of cleanliness is extremely off putting. I have posted pics of my burnt breakfast as well as some of the filth and hoard.

    The omelette cup is not actually in a cup, great value at $6.75 and the eggs are spot on.

    Visiting Anchorage and looking for a new favorite spot to eat since our regular spot recently…read moreclosed. The reviews looked good at Heidi's and we were not disappointed. Clean and spacious. Excellent, fast, friendly service, good breakfast food. Prices were comparable to other eateries but definitely good sized portions. Clean restrooms. We will definitely be back.

    Breakfast at Heidi's always good but never great. I ate here while I was in town on business a…read moreyear ago and I just realized I didn't take any photos of rhe food?!?!?! Hahahahaha! Anyway, second time is the charm I guess. So the Halibut sandwich was good, flavor was good, the fish was tender and flaky, my server made a mistake and substituted the "American" cheese for Swiss but I loved it! LOL! Seriously made the sandwich taste better. I didn't eat the bun because to be brutally honest as I always am, the bun was of cheap, stale and poor quality, it was barely toasted and not buttered? Fail! The bun on my cheese burger was the same way. The burger itself was cooked perfectly medium well but it was a premade obviously Sysco quality burger which was poorly seasoned which was made more evident by the stale, cheap, poor quality bun. They did have Coke Zero which made me feel a little better. Also at the end of my meal I ended up having to get up from my table and go pay for my food since my server hadn't returned in 15 minutes after clearing my dirty dishes. I don't feel like I will return to this place as there are much better options in the area. The ambiance always feels like I'm in an IHOP at 3am for some reason..
