    On a recent rainy day, my sister, mother and I ventured into downtown Anchorage to eat at a specific restaurant. After parking in the garage, we descended to the first floor, and saw the Midnight Sun Café. We decided not to go outside in the rain, and eat here instead. I am so glad that we did! I had the amazing Veggie Breakfast Sandwich on a croissant. If I could eat that every morning for the rest of my life, I would have a smile on my face all day long! My mother and sister also enjoyed their meals. The service was great, and I would gladly eat here again if I were ever in Anchorage.

    Cozy and perfect. Great prices, and plenty of options. Everything tastes fresh and local, and it's a fun place to go in Anchorage. I got the Flying Pigs in the Garden on a croissant and I recommend.

    Shit place, place slow people smoothie was warm not cold and mid not worth 6$ Same for the frozen croissants

    Great food, mediocre cold brew depending on the barista. The prices are high I think and the service can be very slow paced. It's adorable keetcy cafe, It's like perfect for visitors and locals alike.

    Stooped in for a quick lunch. Got the Italian vegetable goddess sandwich with chips. Very delicious little sandwich. Cute shop with lots of pastries and coffees. Staff was very friendly and welcoming.

    If you're looking a place to grab a sandwich and soup, you've found it! Things I like: - so many hot paninis to choose from - great soup - good coffee - nice local art on the walls - friendly service - breakfast served all day: pretty good prices for grab-n-go breakfast sandwiches too This place is great if you're a tourist walking around downtown or a local looking for an early breakfast or a lunch on your lunch break.

    I've been by this spot a hundred times and never really stopped in, I've been missing out! Such a quaint little shop with a nice staff and delicious food. I had the turkey bacon ranch panini and she had half a BLT and the Midnight Sun Salad. My turkey bacon ranch was DELICIOUS! Toasted multigrain bread with the perfect mix of turkey and toppings. Her BLT was equally delicious and a perfect addition to her salad which was fresh and well put together. This shop is a gem right in the center of town.

    After getting into Anchorage late at night and waking up early with the time change and sunshine practically all day/night...we were hungry for breakfast. Nothing was open near our lodging so we walked into city center and saw this cafe. We ordered at counter and our eggs came in a big croissant; very good! Coffee was good too! Our server was interesting but friendly. I had to clean the table we sat at and we were the 1st customers so I dropped a star but since in Anchorage I've had to do this at several places?!? Not sure why other than Anchorage is casual...

    We ordered to go on our way to our studies ship. Their tuna melt was really good and I really like you can get baby carrots as a side.

    Having been to Italy, Originale's is the closest restaurant that even compares to the taste of the…read moresandwiches made in Italy. I've had the Nonni and the Classic Piadina. Both are packed with flavor. Whether ordering in or ordering to go, keep in mind it takes quite a while--almost 10 to 15 mins--for the staff to make your sandwich, so I wouldn't recommend that you stop here in you're in a hurry because you're not going to get it out fast. In this case, call ahead about 30 mins or so if you're picking up. The prices are a little high, but it's worth the price for the quality of the food you're getting, which I can't say for most restaurants in the present era (2020s for those that are reading this in the 2030s and 2040s, if this platform still exists then lol!) Either way, the quality is HIGH and the flavor factor? HIGH! The Classic Piadina is very fresh tasting and comes with greens. It only comes in one size, so it's a little small for me. Still delicious! The Nonni is a pretty large sandwich, if you're getting the full sandwich. The onions combine with the meat enhances the flavors. The building that Originale is in presents itself as a very quaint and relaxed lunch spot with bright colors and large windows. It's a place you can go to sit and talk with friends. I look forward to trying more of their sandwiches.

I went with the "Favorito," and let's just say, it instantly earned its name. The prosciutto cotto was pure-savory-bliss-melt-in-your-mouth good. And the focaccia- fresh, herby, and perfectly balanced in thickness. It hugged the fillings just right without stealing the show. Also, the tomatoes- I did not expect them to be so buttery and delicious. I may have paused mid-bite to appreciate them. Yes, I'm that person. As a die-hard cheese lover, the little bonus cube of cheese on the side felt like a tiny gift--like the sandwich was giving me a wink and saying, "Hey, I see you." Originale, I'll be back. Probably sooner than I should be.
