Great Ramen! I love a thick and creamy broth, and the spicy…read moreTonkotsu didn't disappoint. I'll admit, the spiciness did take away a little from the rich, warm taste. My husband got the normal one and that broth seemed a little thicker/richer than mine. But you really can't go wrong with either! Totally recommend coming here. You walk in, order at the kiosk, take a number and have a seat. Enjoy!

I was so upset to know my husband went to Kami without me while I took our toddler to speech…read moretherapy. My heart was broken until I came home and found that he brought me back gyoza. It was so delicious. They have truly the best gyoza and can give any other gyoza a real run for their money. I love the crispy bits that are like icing on the top. And the sauce? Heavenly. It's got such a delicate ness to it, it's runny and light but so umami with a little zing of garlic. I don't know if I can ever be too full for more of these gyoza they're too flavorful.

During my three-night stay in Anchorage, I dined at Whiskey & Ramen twice. I chose to come here…read morebecause they have vegan options, and I'm glad I did. This is a cute restaurant with friendly staff and clearly marked vegan options. The food was delicious and filling. I ordered the Umeboshi Salad and The Outsider ramen. They also have some delicious zero-proof beverages, which is nice if you don't drink alcohol, or if you're simply not drinking alcohol at the moment, and want something a little different while on vacation. If you do drink alcohol, it also seems like a great place to enjoy some drinks. I'm happy I decided to try this place. Before coming to Alaska, I wasn't sure how easy it would be to find vegan options, but so far I haven't had any issues. That has been a very pleasant surprise.

This place will put a smile on your face!…read more The appetizers were excellent, especially the cucumbers, and the pickle plate. The cocktails were amazing, and everyone in our group loved theirs. The ramen was very good, although I'm not a big fan of extremely thin noodles, as they can overcook so easily. The ramen eggs were cooked to perfection, and the pork chashu was flawless. The tonkotsu broth in "The Hook" could have used a little more depth, but the chicken broth was sublime, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Make reservations.

The sashimi was fresh and definitely the highlight. That said, the service was slow and a bit…read moredisorganized - we didn't get our edamame until we were basically done with our meal. Good quality fish, but the timing and flow could be much better.

Came twice so far on this Girdwood trip, it's been a few years since I've been here. I have still…read morebeen very impressed with the food here. We've tried the seaweed salad, a couple of their sushi rolls, and an assortment of other items. My new favorite thing might be the crispy spicy ahi bites. Each bite a perfect size, so crunchy and with a thin slice of Jalapeño on top. I also enjoyed the steamed pork gyoza, each one super succulent and tasty. My husband tried the fried chicken thigh with tartar sauce, which was delicious. The chicken was super flavorful and the tartar sauce was like egg salad but worked with the flavors which was a nice surprise. We like splitting a large 22 oz bottle of Sapporo, but we have also liked ordering a small bottle of sake to share in lieu of dessert. The last time we went I got the gluten-free chocolate cake which was pretty good but laughably tiny in size ($10). Wait times can vary depending on the day you go and time, we've been seated immediately (party of 2) as well as waited an hour for a table. Speaking of which, you may be seated at their largest table which they also seat other parties, so it feels a bit communal as opposed to private. Sakura has maintained their quality in food over the years and their waitstaff are excellent each time we go. I always look forward to time spent here and you can't go wrong with anything you choose on the menu.
