Great service, great food, excellent all around!!…read more The restaurant is in a strip mall like shop center, so i am glad i researched this place prior to visiting Anchorage. The soup I ordered was such a pleasant surprise, and the salmon was simply the finishing touch. The decor was appropriate for an intimate night of conversation, or small family gatherings. I would definitely recommend this place, and our waitress provided great recommendations to us tourists

I'm not a huge pancake person, but my husband and I really wanted to find sourdough pancakes while in Alaska. They did not disappoint. They're thin and flavorful. The sourdough makes the base pancake so much better than a regular pancake in my opinion. I would add them to my must try list while in Anchorage!

I was really disappointed by my experience here. From the moment we walked in, it felt like we were…read moretreated differently because we weren't regular customers. Staff repeatedly acknowledged and served people they clearly knew while we were left waiting and largely ignored. The service was slow, and we had to work much harder than we should have just to get someone's attention. It wasn't busy enough to explain the lack of service, and we never felt welcomed or valued as paying customers. Everyone deserves the same level of courtesy and attention, whether it's their first visit or their hundredth. Unfortunately, this experience made us feel like outsiders, and it left a very negative impression. We won't be returning, and I hope the restaurant takes customer service more seriously so future guests have a better experience.

The ambience is great here and it's well kept/clean. I do although think that the little Order Here cards are a terrible choice and shouldn't be a part of the experience. It takes away from the interaction and experience with the server and doesn't check to verify your age if you add a beverage. I could see that being an issue. And really it takes up counter space as well. Just get rid of them please! I'd never use it. Also I'd like to add that if you come in, look for a place to sit wherever Felicia is working. She's friendly and goes above and beyond the call of duty!!!

For me, coming here in the future my place will be at the bar with appetizers. Bar environment is 5/5 As far as the rest goes I think the food is good, not spectacular. 3/5. In the future I think I'd come for an appetizer and a couple of drinks and that's it. I felt the veal was tough on both ordered plates and potentially I would have preferred chicken. That being said the sauce was great. The grappa sauce had amazing flavor and the Marsala sauce also had great flavor. Plus the funghi appetizer was great with the bread. All of it was enjoyable enough for a return visit. This spot has very friendly staff, they move at a classic Alaska pace. Meant for sitting down and enjoying the company of someone you're eating with but not designed for getting in and out the door quickly. Come with the intention to get things as they come and enjoy the ride.

My wife was craving "wild game" and this was one of the Google reviews (all fairness) stated this was available. The server was very professional and I would recommend him as a fine dining server.

Our reservation was for 4 PM. We asked to be seated at a booth. Lo and behold, we got our favorite server, Matt, who we hadn't seen for a while. So me being Gluten-Free I felt pretty safe with him because he knows what to watch out for and is very honest with his opinions and if in doubt he will find out. The menu does point out with a GF next to the menu items that are definitely gluten-free. But it never hurts the ask your server if the chef would make exceptions or adjustments to other dishes. I wanted the "Roasted Oysters" $23 but it did not have a "GF" next to it like the fresh oysters did and Matt went to go check to make sure & see if anything could be done. He found out that it could not be adjusted for gluten-free allergies as they use Panko crumbs in the recipe. Boo! Anyway, Matt then suggested the "Steamed Clams & Mussels" for $18 and that was a very good suggestion. They were very tasty & a little spicy. So if you don't like spice, this isn't the dish for you. I would've liked a little less heat, but it was still tasty nonetheless. We ordered the mocktails and I got the "Shake your Tree" and my husband got the "Coconut Watermelon Cooler", at $8 ea. my husband said his was OK. He expected more coconut flavor leaning to piña colada type of drink, but this was not that and had a very watermelon after note. I didn't like it much but my "Shake your tree" drink was very pleasant, refreshing and definitely tasted like pineapple with the sugar around the rim of the glass. Wish they made a bigger glass of it. To the point I got two! lol. My husband ordered the "Seafood Chowder" by the cup rather than the bowl at $6 he also ate the three pieces of bread that they brought to the table. and of course, I can't have any. He ordered the "Special Ribeye Steak" from the "tonight's specials" menu at $59 for a 14 ounce cut topped with chimichurri; served with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables. The steak was cooked too perfection at medium and very tender, juicy and flavorful. My husband felt that he didn't have enough mashed potatoes because he finished that and the fresh vegetables which were carrots, broccoli and cauliflower steamed well before he made it through his steak. I had the 1/2 Rack Center Cut Lamb (GF) grilled and topped with cherry-garlic sauce & served with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes with skin in and fresh steamed vegetables, broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots for $36. My lamb was also cooked to perfection of medium and was very juicy, flavorful and tender. Our server was on point with everything as usual! I received the crème brûlée for my birthday dish, and my husband got the carrot cake with I believe a side of whipped cream. The crème brûlée was very good and tasty. The bowl sat on a plate of chocolate and raspberry sauce. I had to scrape that up to eat it with my crème brûlée, which was a little different as you don't get much. It would've been better how they put it maybe in a dish of its own on the side so you can dip it in there or decorate the top of the crème brûlée it . Either way I finished it. It was good. My husband said the carrot cake was very moist and flavorful and he ate it all. The place wasn't very loud as we got there at the beginning of dinner when they opened. so there was a walk-in group of about 15 people and another couple there with us at the beginning. So the atmosphere was pretty quiet started getting louder before we left at about 6 PM. The damage was to the tune of $153. Not bad for what we got. We both left very full, satisfied and we will return. Shout out to Matt K. For doing what he does best when it comes to good customer service. Did spots and crumbs in the corner of my booth that were missed clearly from the night cleanup crew as we were the first ones for the day in that booth. But that's not enough to knock the meal itself and the experience.

The calamari was easily the best that I've ever had in my life. The chowder was absolutely fantastic. I also tried their beer flight, I don't know if I've ever mentioned beer in any of my reviews, cause I typically don't drink it. I was absolutely shocked to discover that the stout was one of my favorites, with that dark chocolate finish. All of the beers were really good, just a bit filling. Today I sampled the French dip and a slice of pizza, and both of those were absolutely fantastic. Had the calamari again, and everyone agreed that it was pretty much the best ever. Service last night was very good, our server took care to explain the food and drink options as well as answering any questions. He was very attentive and friendly. I went with a large group for lunch today and our server was excellent, she nailed every order and was friendly and quite attentive. Large groups can be a hassle, but she handled it excellently. The atmosphere last night was quite busy as you would imagine on a Friday night. That's why the good service and great food is extra impressive. We had a private room for our group lunch today, and it was quite nice as well. I would absolutely come back here again, and list them as a must visit for anyone visiting Anchorage. So far the food scene in Anchorage just doesn't seem to miss. Kudos to the management and staff for running an excellent restaurant operation and delivering both quality customer service and superior food product.

The Elf on the Shelf Pizza = 10/10…read more Recently, we visited Anchorage and were told that we absolutely had to try Moose's Tooth. I'll admit, when I first started reading the menu, I was a little concerned I wasn't going to find something I'd like. Some of the combinations were definitely outside of what I would normally order. Then I spotted the Elf on the Shelf pizza. We asked our amazing waiter what he thought about it, and when he told us it was one of his favorites, we decided to commit and give it a try. Let me just say... MIND. BLOWN. This pizza was easily a 10/10 for me. The combination of flavors worked together so perfectly, and it ended up being one of my favorite meals from our entire Alaska trip. My only complaint? I'm back home in Arizona and we have nothing like it here! But I guess that just gives me another reason to come back to Alaska. Moose's Tooth, you officially have an Arizona girl dreaming about Elf on the Shelf pizza.
