This food was the best food we had on our Alaska trip by far. Absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked, very fresh seafood. The cocktails weren't too sweet, which I worry about sometimes. The view out the windows was gorgeous even on a cloudy day. Reservations were easy to make, even just a day out. They even boxed up our leftovers for us! Very kind and attentive service. I expected to spend more than I did, even with dessert! So even at a more costly price point it wasn't outrageous to me. read more

This was spectacular! The views were amazing from the deck outside! We had the macadamia nut halibut and it came with a buerre blanc sauce, which was to die for. We had the calamari with a spicy sauce and really enjoyed that also with our local IPA's. Their wine list good and beer choices were amazing as well. Service was exceptional as well. read more

Beautiful background to a wonderful meal. Will consider staying at the lodge! Food well prepared and excellent service!

The fish was really bad and translucent (fish and chips). The fries and calamari were decent. Two Bloody Mary's ($32). They gave us 50% off the 2 fish and chips meals since we ate the fries and the total was $85. Appetizer and two drinks with fries ($85). The service wasn't good but they were nice. I personally won't be back due to the cost and quality. They get a two star for the views because they're actually really nice. read more

Great dinner, steak was amazing. Cocktails were spot on. The seafood pasta is insane the pasta to seafood ratio. Great service. Awesome evening. read more

This restaurant has really pretty views if you want to sit outdoors or even try and get a indoor seating next to a window. The customer service was amazing for such a large party we had. The seafood chowder was very yummy a little different with the bacon bits inside of it. Then I got the fried chicken which was cooked perfectly with a crunch! We finished with the desserts the peanut butter chocolate was my favorite and reminded me of a Reese's. read more

I travelled 2700 miles to have a romantic valentines dinner with my man. We chose Everett's, in Wasilla, thinking we would get great service and good food. We ordered steak and crab... waited 45 minutes to get the salad. However, After 2 1/2 hours, we still didn't get our meal. As many other's were waiting for food, a couple sits down and orders a hamburger and was served within 20 minutes. That was it, we were done waiting. My man lives in the valley and goes there Often, but, will never go back again, because they ruined our Valentine's dinner. No fault to the servers, Management dropped the ball. read more

My husband and I took my dad here while he was visiting. Everett's is such a nice spot for a semi fancy dinner on the water. It's gorgeous during the sunset. The interior is super cozy and they have great decoration of antler chandeliers and Alaskan photos all around. The staff were incredibly nice and accommodating. For drinks, I ordered the polar bear and the winter warmer. The polar bear was sooooo good! It's a sweeter drink but perfect to go with a salad or something light like that. The winter warmer was good in flavor but MAN was it strong!! I even had them add heavy cream to it and it STILL did not lessen the strength for me lol. I couldn't get past a couple sips of it. It's very good, but beware its strength! lol! For food I got the beets and berries salad which was delicious and perfect with my first polar bear drink. My husband got the carbonara which he is now OBSSESSED with and will only order that dish lol. My dad ordered the halibut and said it was so good. It wasn't an overloaded amount but enough for him to finish it all and fill up! For the appetizer we ordered the smoked Gouda fries which ended up taking longer than it did for us to get our food so our waitress, Isabella, comped it and gave us a free dessert! She was so kind and the epitome of what customer service is. The fries, unfortunately, had very little Gouda only drizzled on top of the giant potato wedges and a mountain of green onions on it. They were still very good but should be labeled as just fries. This was the only reason it did not get 5 stars. For the free dessert we got the creme brulee which is always my favorite. They made it soooo well! It was so creamy and they used real vanilla beans which always makes this dish top tier! I can't wait to come back! Forgot my phone at home so no photos...this time! read more

LOVE Everett's for brunch and dinner! It's our go-to place for weekend brunch, my favorites are eggs Benedict and Caesar salad. We always go there for dinner on special occasions. Their halibut and king crab are phenomenal. And THE VIEW!! read more

Went with my bestie and her parents. We ordered mocktails and appetizers only as a small lunch. Our server was very nice. The view was amazing on the deck even when it was a little cloudy. Loved the cabin ambiance, very fitting being right on the lake. Would return here again. read more

My family and I came for dinner and loved it! We had the fish and chips and salmon. It was the best fish and chips any of us had ever had! The service was terrific and we loved the ambiance as well. Will be going back soon! read more

Visiting family in Palmer. Had a very good meal here. Ordered the scallops appetizer to share. So delicious! My son ordered the prime rib dinner, only available on Friday and Saturday. Excellent and generous portion! They sell out, so get there early if you want the prime rib. I had the hazelnut halibut with amazing mashed potatoes and the roasted veggies were special. Servers were friendly and attentive! Definitely recommend! read more

Service was good but not as attentive as we have had in the past. This was our first time sitting by the windows which was spectacular given the views. We had our usual bowl of chowder with some bread (awesome) but decided to explore the app selection a bit. We ordered pan seared calamari and the Marsala steak bites. The calamari looked battered and fried and was swimming in a sauce. It was tough and rubbery with a soggy coating. Definitely not good compared to their spicy calamari. They need to change the description since it is far from being breaded and pan fried. The sauce wasn't bad but overall the calamari was like chewing on a piece of rubber. The Marsala steak tips were good. They were tender and the mushrooms were flavorful. I wish the mushrooms were cut thicker but definitely a good dish. We mentioned to the server that the calamari were a bit off putting and not exactly what we expected based on the menu. When we got the check we noticed that the calamari were covered. Not too many restaurants do that these days so kudos to them (hence the 5th star). We will be back to continue our menu adventure! read more

We went for Sunday brunch around noon and were lucky enough to snag a table on the deck overlooking Wasilla Lake, and what an unforgettable setting. The view was nothing short of stunning: mountains mirrored in the lake, float planes gliding by, birds over the water, and the occasional kayaker drifting past. There's even the option to rent a paddleboard or kayak on-site if you're up for a little adventure before or after your meal. It's the kind of place that invites you to slow down and soak it all in. Now, on to the food! It was just as enjoyable as the view. We ordered the eggs Benedict and the crab cakes Benedict, and both were absolutely spot-on. You know how some Benedicts can go sideways with overcooked eggs or overpowering hollandaise? Not here. The eggs were perfectly poached, the hollandaise was smooth, fresh, and just tangy enough to complement the dish without overwhelming it. The ham had a nice thickness and tenderness, and even the English muffin had great flavor and texture. It was soft yet toasty. The home fries on the side were seasoned well, with a golden crisp on the outside and fluffy interior. We also tried two cocktails, a watermelon margarita and a spicy Bloody Mary. The Bloody Mary was garnished with an assortment of pickled treats: asparagus, baby pea, green bean, peppers, and more. The atmosphere was so lovely and relaxing, we decided to stretch out the experience with dessert. The chocolate cake with raspberry coulis and ice cream was a sweet and satisfying way to close the meal, and share-worthy. Service throughout was friendly and efficient, adding to what already felt like a special outing. Between the beautiful setting, thoughtful menu, and great service, we'd absolutely recommend checking this place out, especially if you can grab a seat on the deck. read more

More fine food, it was an "Ignite YOUr Fire" presentation; so banquet/buffet-line feeding, but delicious enough for 3 plates. I stopped going to Friday comedy nights here because the chairs are simply uncomfortable for extended periods of time .... read more

Pretentious overall Meal came out before my cocktail. Then my beer finally arrived...server issues. Granted, there was a large group next to me, but I would think the place could handle it. The meal was fair. Steak at $54 without any seasoning..what?? Great chefs will get insulted if I were to add a sauce. As a customer, I'm insulted in receiving a tasteless piece of beef. As a bit of a beef snob, there are proper ways to cook meat, especially expensive top cuts like a filet... someone failed here. Recommendation?? If you're staying here as this is also a hotel or lodge... maybe. But don't make the 30-minute trek like I did. I was disappointed after so many great meals in the area. Need to stick with the breweries, I guess. Small. Yet great at their trade. Nice view over the pond to the mountain range... but still disappointed in the service and meal. read more

Wasilla has a winner of a restaurant with a cozy ambiance and lake views. We were very impressed for our first time here. We started with Escargot and Seared Scallops Au Feu, basically you know Escargot snails in garlic, parsley and butter - no fighting the pretentious snail shells. The Scallops, is in a chipotle cream sauce. Both executed well but the hot pepper on the menu for the scallops well turned out milder not super spicy. We like heat. A special on the Menu was Cajun Halibut Sandwich we split and decided to get the Steak Tips in Marsala, as our entrees. We upgraded the fries to Smoked Gouda Fries basically a Poutine that was well worth the upgrade! Highly recommend. read more

I really enjoy Everett's. The service is always amazing. The food is so good! The views of the lake is lovely, peaceful during the winter months and beautiful in the summer. Outside dining is available during the summer. During the winter, there's welcoming heat lamps and fire pits on the deck. The menu features exciting options, including the event and weekly specials. I ordered the chicken piccata special and loved it!! The chicken was very tender, I had to do a double to take to see if it was chicken or fish that I was eating because of the tenderness. Delish! The drinks are strong-just the way I like it! After two..I was feeling toasty in this wonderful Alaska winter season. The bacon wrapped dates for appetizers are highly recommended. Service is extremely prompt and top notch. The experience is definitely worth checking out. read more

I've reviewed this place a few times and honestly it's been hit or miss. Lately though Everett's has upped its game. Particularly their salads and sides. I had the most amazing salad. Such a creative blend of flavors and it just worked out beautifully! I would never have thought to blend these flavors and textures. If you like to walk on the healthier side, like to try new flavors and aren't afraid of unlikely pairings, then check this salad out. Also, of course crème brûlée, because.....yum! read more

The drinks and view from the deck were fantastic. Our server was sweet but didn't fit the bill. We went without napkins our entire meal. The table behind us, that arrived after us, was fully equipped. My spouse got a $75 Porterhouse steak, so he eventually received a fancy napkin and knife. I was handed a spoon, my spouse was handed a fork, both by the kitchen food runner, a few minutes after our food came out. My spouses steak was quality and tasty, but too well done, noticeably smaller, and more expensive than any steak available to order at Double Musky, for example. Their King Crab Mac was better (not as rich) as both Orso's and Altura's Bistro, but the portion was smaller. The spicy calamari was elite. Everett's also has kids menu, hand-breaded chicken strips, with the literal best hand-cut fries, that my son enjoyed. Its rare we visit fine dining restaurants that do. It was a cloudy, slightly windy day. We made reservations to sit on the deck and upon being seated, asked about using one of the many fire pits/outdoor heaters. Our server told us she needed to track down a full propane tank. It was forgotten about all together and never mentioned again. My main reason for choosing Everett's for my spouses Father's Day weekend, was the water toys available to rent after your dinner. Unfortunately, it wasn't sunny and Everett's was clearly short staffed, so we didn't bother asking. We decided we'd take a stroll on the dock overlooking Wasilla Lake, after our dinner. When we got up, and looked over the railing, we could see there was a group of people (who arrived after us), seated near the dock, with none other than.... a warm blazing fire pit. Annoying. We didn't feel comfortable having to pass them so closely, (to get on the dock), so we just left and went to Palmer City Alehouse for dessert and drinks. Everett's missed out on at least $100 more on our ticket. Would I come back? Maybe if it was sunny and we planned to utilize their water toys. Otherwise, there are closer, cheaper places. read more

Service was slow or no where to be found. The mojito was diluted. Tasted like watered down limeade with low quality rum. The clams were not rinsed well so every bite was gritty. And the bacon wrapped scalloped were extremely salty and obviously deep fried - not grilled or pan seared. And those were the appetizers- we didn't stay for dinner. Disappointing given this is a well established place. I give it 2-stars at least for the ambience and deck views. read more

10 out of 10! From the relaxed atmosphere, to the nice dinning setup, this was an Absolute gem. The staff was extremely nice and helpful in picking out drinks and food. All the drink selections were good, with a decent selection of beer and wine. All the food that we had was great. One the best parts about this restaurant is watching the bi-planes fly in on the lake. The outside seating is great as well on a warm sunny day! read more

Everett's might be more of a 3.5 for me, but when it's good it's pretty darn good and I appreciate that it's there for a few reasons, so I've settled on 4. My most recent experience here was great. And I remember coming here on the 4th of July a couple years ago and that was really great. In between that, there's been some low average to average experiences but at the end of the day, the valley doesn't have too many places that are a great location with outdoor seating and drinks so I appreciate having that kind of place here. I'll start with the blah experiences then end with the great. At it's worst, Everett's has had very slow service and average food for the price. Both of these more negative experiences was during their trivia nights. Which I'm not sure if they do anymore? But if they start it up again I think having a balance between getting service to trivia players and regular restaurant guests is needed. At it's best, I've had really enjoyable meals here with an awesome view and great service. Their outdoor seating on a nice day can't beat. I highly recommend their happy hour which I think is on certain times during the day. We happened to be there during happy hour once and we got multiple apps and drinks for a great deal. Their calamari is really good! They have really good cocktails too. I would love it if they had more vegetarian options on the menu, but I've always found something to eat as I do eat seafood and they have lots of those options. The food is solid and the atmosphere is great! It's a large restaurant too so good for events. read more

We ordered the Gouda fries, and two seafood pastas. The Gouda fries came out great, super hot crispy fries and the sauce was a great consistency and flavor. The seafood pasta was good, the pasta sauce was a good consistency (the other reviews are misleading) it's thick and creamy and garlicky. The seafood was cooked well other than the fish seemed to be a tad overcooked along with the shrimp. Best experience I have had here yet! The service was fast and we had a great time overall with the ambiance in the "fancy side" of the restaurant. I think their food only lacks when seated on the bar side for some reason. read more

Amazing! We went to Everett's twice on our Alaska vacation, my now fiancee works in Juneau and family friends of our that live near wisilla recommended them and now so do we!!! We went here right after we got engaged and had an amazing dinner. We proceeded to come back for breakfast and the patio was gorgeous view in the morning. Food was great both times and they have fun cocktails. We also enjoyed watching helicopters take off from the landing! (Maybe you'd find that loud and annoying but we thought it was cool) The waitress who helped us on the breakfast was darling as well. Highly recommend read more

Everett's did a great job accommodating our group of 9 during the last week of July. Despite being short-staffed, we were seated quickly on the beautiful stretch of the back patio overlooking the lake and distant mountains. The staff helped moved some tables together and got drinks started right away. While the service was a bit slower than one would probably like, it's good to remember that most places are still short-staffed due to COVID and other factors. The Empress Lavender, Ginger Electric Lemonade, and Fireweed drinks were all raved about and helped pass the time. Our group ordered a whole bunch of appetizers - the steak tips trended a bit dry, but the flavors were all there; the spicy calamari and the pan-seared calamari were both crowd favorites; the clams were fresh though with a bit too much sauce; and the blind dates (bacon wrapped) were real winners with a good balance of sweet, savory, and just a tiny hint of tart. If you like a good chowder, the seafood chowder is rich and hearty, which is great on a slightly cooler evening. For main courses, the group had a mixed bag of opinions. The winners were around the seafood pasta (beautiful large chunks of seafood in a rich, creamy sauce - so much so, you almost can ignore the noodles); the salmon on cedar plank was beautifully grilled with a well-balanced chimichurri sauce; the halibut was cooked well though the group demurred on the pear sauce; and the individual in our group who went with the ribeye enjoyed it as it was cooked as order to perfection. As others have called out, there's a nice indoor area with large picture windows and a more intimate bar area as well. There was live music on the patio the night we went - it wasn't anything special, but made for a lively atmosphere. Get reservations to help the staff plan, enjoy the view of the lake, and prepare for an easygoing meal! read more

DINNER 8pm - Saturday Super busy. Definitely make reservations. Loved dining on the deck! Great view / ambiance right next to the lake. The bugs / mosquitoes were non-existent so that was great. Don't be in a rush. Sit back and relax. They are short staffed like every where else. The food was tasty. We stuck with beer and wine for drinks since we knew they were busy and that it would easiest / fastest to get these types of drinks. They did a good job of keeping our water glasses full. I had the arugula salad and it was huge! Nice and fresh! Love the bacon in it. Easily can share this salad as a starter between a couple people. Everett's has a couple different sections. They have a "fine dining" section that is inside with white table cloths. The dining room has big picture windows so that you can easily see and enjoy the lake outside. There is also a bar area, and where we sat .. out on the patio deck looking out onto the lake. As a side note: we also had breakfast inside in the "fine dining" section. They do NOT do breakfast normally. This was arranged special by our tour. Their breakfast was amazing! Super fluffy scrambled eggs and all sorts of sides. You didn't get to choose your breakfast... they made them up ... all the same and just served when we got there. It was so much food and it was all very tasty! read more

We showed up on a Tuesday night, 7pm and the hostess told us "We're on a hold right now, the servers are too busy." Wouldn't even seat us. There was what I'd say was a normal amount of people. There were multiple empty tables in dining room and bar area. We said ok,"we'll just go get a couple drinks and wait." The hostess then replied that the bar was too busy as well...and just left us standing there by the "Please wait to be seated sign"....! Ha!!! Wow...! So we left.... read more

I was craving a good steak. I wanted the bone in ribeye and I wasn't that disappointed. It was definitely cooked over a gas grill. The temperature was just right as medium rare. There's was a lot of marbling that increased the taste . It's so unhealthy but that piece of burnt fat stick at the end of the meat was so so good! I didn't eat the mashed potatoes. Their garden salad wasn't that spectacular. Fresh, but nothing special. Overall, I think it's a solid restaurant with excellent service, food and view. How can you beat the view of the lake? For Thinsulin fans, there's many green light options available. read more

Service - the bartender was friendly and inviting. I was the only one sitting at the bar and only 1 of about 9 customers in the whole place on a Wednesday night around 730 - - - - My recommendation is go on a Wednesday night for a quiet dinner. Food - My sole purpose in going here was to check out their steaks. Their seafood menu also looked solid. In the end I went for a 44 dollar, bone-in New York Strip. I asked for the steak on the medium side of medium rare. More pink than red. A kind of warm red, cool pink style situation if that existed. Most steak places know what you mean with this and take care of you. My steak came out and I discovered two problems. 1. The steak was a lot thinner than New York Strips I am used to. I shrugged this off as I had never had a bone-in New York Strip. 2. The lighting was dark and neon, but the steak looked more medium well to well. I asked the bartender and he couldn't seem to tell either. He offered to send it back and get it right, but I was hungry and I felt bad. After thinking about it for a couple days I feel like I should have sent it back. The last 4 or 5 bites were tough and chewy. I left disappointed that I paid 44 dollars for a sub par steak. - - - Side Note: Just a week later I had a pepper crusted New York Strip at Club Paris that was perfectly cooked and, at 34 dollars, cheaper than the fiasco of Everett's. Notables - there is a great selection of local beers of all varieties. They even had a small batch side project of sorts from Denali Brewing. It was an Imperial Stout with Tamarind. Very tasty. read more

Decided to try a new place for our Anniversary dinner. Ordered the fish of the day. The fish came out like jerky, way over cooked, the rice was crunchy and burned like they scooped from the scorched bottom of the pan and the veggies were not done, crunchy.
