Food was really good. I had the California Omelette which was so light and perfectly cooked. Had the side of fruit and a pancake and they were both delicious! Service was really fantastic as well. Busy on a Sunday that was also Father's Day but we had a very comfortable booth and waited less than 15 minutes for a table. read more

Since this place was just down the street from our hotel, we decided to give them a try. Not only was their service top-notch, but the food was great and reasonably priced (for Alaska)--we enjoyed it so much we ate here twice during our stay. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is very open and offers plenty of seating (more than enough for a large group).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They're only open for breakfast & lunch, so plan accordingly. First visit/Breakfast: their chicken friend steak was the star of the show! Perfectly seasoned, tender and topped with delicious sausage gravy. Second visit/Lunch: Wonderfully perfect halibut sandwich was delicious and their kid's burger was pretty solid. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Between the great food, friendly service and clean, spacious dining room Heidi's is definitely worth the trip![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will most definitely make a point to return next time we're in town. read more

Breakfast at Heidi's always good but never great. I ate here while I was in town on business a year 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance always feels like I'm in an IHOP at 3am for some reason.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. read more

Just the hubs and I on a visit from Iowa. We were quickly seated at a table, on a Tuesday. The waitress was friendly, outgoing and took our order promptly. I ordered the veggie omelet with no peppers nor mushrooms. I believe they mixed two much milk in their eggs I prefer my omelets with straight egg. The home fries were ok but I like the ones back home better. Hubs tried the reindeer sausage which reminded him of the ring bologna our parents fixed with sauerkraut when we were younger. Food was not terrible. If we lived here, it may not be our regular place but we might go there again read more

Good but not great is how I would best describe our experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall the place is nice, especially inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was good & fresh, except the bacon was like chewing leather & too salty. The sausage gravy could use more seasoning and the service could be more attentive. We would definitely like to try this place again and maybe try some different dishes. I will say the pancake was a delight! Fluffy and perfect. Coffee was good too. read more

One of my favorite hometown breakfast/brunch spots here in Anchorage!

This establishment was rated 4.5 in Yelp at the time of our visit. Well deserved rating! Our server, Nicole was gracious and followed up to see if the food met our expectations. It did for me and two others in our party. One of our party said the waffle was "meh". They have a history as a picky eater though. Coffee was good! 2 cups for me :0) I had the breakfast sandwich. You can choose how the eggs are cooked and selected bacon. It had cheese melted which combined everything nicely and tasted good! I took a photo. It has a large dining area. Good for small groups. I cleaned up the photo to remove individuals for privacy sake. If you like diners, put this spot on your radar. I would recommend this establishment for breakfast/brunch! read more

We were looking forward to trying Heidi's, since Anchorage has some few diners, but we absolutely will never return for a number of reasons. The first is the value- 50 bucks for breakfast for 2 people - without the tip- is RIDICULOUS. Additionally thus place was packed and the parking lot and restaurant itself can't handle the volume of people. We waited about 15 minutes for a table, another 10 to place our order. Our coffee didn't come until after our meals came, which is unacceptable and the service was generally not very nice. The food was ok.. parts of it was good, other parts was awful. The corned beef was the best I've ever had in my life, the eggs and toast made me want to vomit. My husband said his steel cut oatmeal was perfect. It was all over the map. Here's my issue. The energy is ugly. Its microagressive ugly racist like Kriners is. If you're brown they treat you differently. We watched as our table and the table of other minorities got served after white people. Like WAY AFTER. And white people got extra little "oh would you like this that or the other" offerings while we didn't. They even have a few minorities in the kitchen and I can imagine their work experience is not very nice. And I will not patronize places like that. There are plenty of other places in Anchorage that treat people equally and are kind regarding of who you are. read more

Worst service ever!! Food is great but if you want to be treated disrespectful and they're good too for you to buy their food and order customer service has declined at this restaurant. It's so sad. I was told by a girl who answered the phone said to call back when I know what I'm ready to order and I knew what I was ready to order but they were so busy she couldn't take my phone call for pick up on the phone. Good food but bad service. read more

When we walked in, we waiting standing by the door for about 5 mins before we were acknowledge by anyone. The hosts with green glasses looked at us as if she was annoyed to sit us down. She was also our server. She was not friendly at all. She lacks customer service, she was either annoyed to be working today for sure. Brought wrong items to the table, didn't bring utensils until we requested them and was annoyed. Didn't check on us at all until we finished our meals. read more

I love this place. The food is great and the service is greater. We had breakfast. I finally got the sliced link reindeer sausage to find out what all the hype was about. It was very good. Still tasted a bit like pork but the reindeer came through and it was delightful. Not gamy. I found out later that all reindeer sausage has some pork in it. Who knew? Our waitress was Marie and she was a gem. read more

Visiting Anchorage and looking for a new favorite spot to eat since our regular spot recently closed. The reviews looked good at Heidi's and we were not disappointed.

The menu is large and the plates larger! This is a favorite spot for me and to bring friends from our of town as they can try many good Alaskan dishes and staple ones, too. I like the pancakes, scrambles, country fried steak (the gravy is fricken awesome!) and biscuits and gravy. You will leave very full, just a warning! read more

I've been to Heidi's many times and usually like it. However, today's meal was a complete disappointment. I ordered the corned beef skillet with less potatoes and more vegetables. I got charged two extra dollars for "added vegetables," which were barely there. It was 99% potato. I asked for my eggs runny and got easy-over. There was barely any corned beef! The waitress added an UNREQUESTED bowl of gravy ("I thought you might enjoy that ") and charged me $3! WHAT? The portion was huge and the pancakes were good, but I don't appreciate being up-charged for something I didn't request, 99% potatoes, little meat , little veggies, and overcooked eggs. The waitress is lucky I still gave her 20% tip. read more

Four stars not for the food I give that a 2.85 almost three. But friendly warm and welcoming. Beat the rush at 8:45am for a descent breakfast. I should have got the oatmeal and blueberries. That was a 3.5. Coffee was strong and brewed fresh. My meal the potatoes were cold and the sauce almost curdled. But edible I would return. read more

Sam was an excellent waitress. Handled our party of nine (7 sisters + 2 friends) with great ease. Service was exceptional.. food was excellent as well. Party had a mix- turkey melt with tomato basil soup? French toast with fresh strawberries?, open faced sandwich, Cobb salad, halibut sandwich!! Yum yum. read more

All the food we ate was delicious. Once we got a table, the service was excellent. The one complaint I would make would be that the process to get a table is not obvious. There's a sign saying to wait to be seated, but it wasn't clear that there was a list to put your name on. There was quite a back up of people waiting in front of the front desk and multiple people who came in after us got seated before we realized there was a list. Some extra signage to make it clear to get your name on the list would be nice. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very good service, very clean restaurant, very good pancakes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My only knock was that the bacon was so overcooked it could have been used as a weapon.

Finley chopped bell peppers and onions in almost every omelette. I have only sat at the bar and it's very good service.

Didn't have a long wait which was amazing for a family of 5! Was able to order lunch early (it's served all day thankfully). I personally got the patty melt it was great. Fries were yummy too & they have good ranch!! + they gave us candy at check out bonus points for-sure read more

The wife and I decided to give this place a try, and we were pleasantly surprised! It was packed, so it took a few minutes to be seated, but the service was great. The food came out fast and was excellent--I had the meat and cheese skillet, which was fantastic. Prices are about what you'd expect in today's economy. If you don't like the prices, you don't have to eat there. As for the negative review from Joy L., there's absolutely no racism here. Remember, folks--just because you don't like a place doesn't mean it's "racist." The seating is straightforward, just like anywhere else: you wait in line, and whoever's next gets seated. Simple as that. read more

Woke up and decided to try a new breakfast place on Sunday. We always go to a place in East Anchorage but like I said we wanted to try a new place. I came across this jewel. It wasn't crowded or as busy as I thought it would be, but it also was before church let out. We sat down and took our time looking over the menu, even though I kind of knew what I wanted since i looked it up on Yelp. I was waiting for the market to open at 11 so we had over an hour before they opened. We finally made our order and sat back and waited. It didn't take long for the mozzarella sticks to come out. They were hot and delicious, even though there was no cheese pull. We ate a few then the main attraction came out. My sister got the strip and eggs, hash browns crispy, and a pancake. That pancake was worth the drive over alone! The steak was cooked perfect except the food wasn't hot. I got the farmers skillet. It came with 2 eggs, hash browns, mushrooms, peppers, onions, ham, bacon and sausage topped with country gravy. I did ask for the gravy on the side since I wasn't sure I would like it. I tasted it and yeah I wasn't feeling it, so I added a little salt and pepper and still not liking it. So added a little hot sauce and it was still a no. The food was delicious but again my food wasn't hot, not even like warm. The only thing that was hot was the egg on top. The gravy wasn't even that warm either. We still ate the food but I did tell the waitress that the food didn't come out hot. I told her it's fine we are still eating the food because it's delicious. We will be back for sure because I need me a stack of those pancakes on my next trip. read more

I'll miss Tofu House but, Heidi's is proving to be a successful replacement. Business was booming the entire time we were there. My spouse loved their strong unlimited coffee. I loved the open clean atmosphere. Service was warm and welcoming. Our food came out fast. I opted for the ultimate breakfast + avocado while my spouse got the country skillet + included pancakes. Great portions, average prices. Flavor profile of the biscuits and gravy could be improved upon. Overall, great diner. I'm sure we'll be back. read more
