Had lunch here with some friends and ended up with a story we'll be laughing about for a long time…read more There was a bottle of hot sauce on the table called "357 Magnum" (about 1 MILLION Scoville ). We thought it was regular hot sauce... so naturally, I absolutely drenched my burrito in it. Big mistake. HUGE. This is to be asked for by customers lol... and it was left out by mistake... One bite in and it felt like I got maced straight to the soul Tears pouring, coughing, face on fire--we couldn't even eat our food because it was that insanely hot. Honestly, it was next-level pain... but also kind of hilarious once we survived it Here's the part that really matters: the owner handled it like a pro. He apologized sincerely, took full responsibility, and didn't even charge us for the meals. That kind of customer service is rare and says a lot about the people who run this place. Owner is amazing and thoughtful... really great people there Accidents happen--but great businesses make it right, and they absolutely did. Awesome food, great atmosphere, cold beer , and genuinely good people. We'll definitely be back (just... maybe staying away from the 357 Magnum next time ). Thanks again for making it right and giving us a story we won't forget!

I have added this restaurant to me "never again" list. I ordered a Hendricks gin and tonic with…read morelime to start. It came in a pint-sized beer glass with ordinary straw. No lime. Flat tonic. Terrible. The enchiladas were OK. The coffee was the color of tar. When I opened the tiny container of half-and-half, the contents were solid and plopped into the coffee. I fished out the solid mass with my spoon and called over the waiter. No apology. I think he then brought back the same coffee, new mini moo-cows. Really terrible dining experience. To top it off, there was an empty plastic vodka bottle on the ground by the front door.

Excellent food and service. Great interior design. My wife's favorite restaurant in Anchorage!read more

First time trying this place so I went to reviews and looked at some good pics and the Molcajete…read morestood out for sure! This is located not even 2 sec walk away from the Hilton hotel. I usually wouldn't eat Mexican food in Alaska those two don't really go together in my brain being from California but I wanted to give it a try anyway lol I ordered the Cilantro Shrimp Molcajete and some chips and salsa on the side. First I will say I don't see why certain restaurants charge for chips and salsa it should be free in my opinion. The salsa lacked flavor and was more sweet than anything. (I asked for the spiciest salsa they have) and the order was $8.. I get it for the size I was surprised but that salsa wasn't good. Moving on to the main dish tho we have the Molcajete which was really good in my opinion. It came out SIZZLING! and the size of it wasn't what I was expecting. So if you're hungry I would def get one of those entrees ! The flavor of the fajita mix was good and the amount of shrimp you get was super filling. That dish was about $38 with the shrimp. The bartender was nice and asked me if I was doing okay a few times and also made sure my water was filled which was great he seemed really knowledgeable of all the good food recommendations and was pretty quick with service so employees were cool ! All in all I enjoyed my early dinner in a nice place that played good Latin music and I liked that it's walking distance from my hotel. I would eat here again one day and try some of their tacos next because I hear they are pretty good. I would say they need to just make the chips free because the are NOT worth $8 lol like at all but other then that decent place.

Absolutely love this place--five stars, no hesitation…read more They're cash only, and it's a small walk-in, order-your-food-and-go kind of spot. It honestly feels like a food truck, except there's a little waiting area inside where you can stand while your food is being made. Simple, no frills, and exactly how it should be. They make the best breakfast burritos in town, hands down. This is a super small, family-run business--a dad and his son--and Oscar is back there cooking everything himself. The food is fresh, consistent every single time, and you can tell it's made with real passion. He clearly loves what he does, and it shows in the quality. This is one of those places you root for. I will always, always come back.

This is good food fast! Great flavorful Mexican burritos and tacos. They also have burgers if…read moreyou're not feeling Mexican that day, lol! I have definitely returned to here. The cooks are friendly and they are all Oscar's family.

The last few times we have gone to Taco King, things have gone okay. Overall, it's not as good as…read moreit used to be though. Prices have gone up significantly, and quality and quantity has decreased. For example, I used to get the Gordita for 4 and change, now it's 9 dollars and they cut the amount of quality items they put on it. Service is always hit or miss. They frequently forget to give you stuff as well. It's still much better than Taco Bell, more authentic and i appreciate supporting a locally owned business.

Simply wow! Wow. This place transports you to Mexico/…read moreOaxaca. Fresh, authentic and Uncompromising flavors. We have had a lot of Mexican food on both sides of the border. their fried beans is #1. Spicy Salsas wow, slaps you , yes from the first bite, it's unbelievable they are here in Anchorage. Enchiladas, verde pollo were flavor explosions. You will have to remind yourself you are in Anchorage Alaska, when you're enjoying their delicious food and friendly caring staff. Yes the menu will be a bit challenging and they may disappear after serving you.. ;) but it's necessary for what they deliver. If they were in NY or CA, they will be minting, But of all places Anchorage gets this Treasure. Loved the food, the spice, the flavor and the freshness. Caring friendly staff. Loved it. Good luck guys. Keep up the good work.

While the mole sauce was delicious, the chicken thighs I received were so small and bony, my rice lacked flavor and the beans were very soupy. My chips were like the little broken pieces at the bottom of the bag making it hard to scoop any decent amount of salsa into them. For almost $30/plate I was anticipating more protein, bolder flavors and better quality. I want to give them another chance, but sometimes first impressions are lasting impressions. Service was friendly but waitstaff were busy so not as attentive. Ambiance is what you'd expect from a hole in the wall.
