Definitely recommend eating here for a more affordable dinner in Denali. We visited twice because…read morewe enjoyed our first pizza so much! On the first visit we sat at the bar to avoid the wait. Bartenders were friendly even though many were working their first day of the season. Ordered the cub size (12") Boreal Forest which is perfect for 2 people. Also had a few beers from their very long menu. Inside was cabin cozy. They also have outdoor seating. Overall, excellent experience! Boreal 5/5 stars. For our second visit, we needed a quick lunch between two excursions so we ordered pickup and tried the Homestead this time. Took 20 minutes from calling in to the pizza being ready which worked well. Homestead 4/5 stars, crust was still amazing but pizza felt like it needed something more. Very happy we found this place on our first day in Denali.

If I was just rating the pizza, it'd be a 4 stars cause we thoroughly enjoyed it. Average size for…read morethe price, good amount of cheese (almost too heavy personally) and pepperoni but fantastic crust. Super light, nice air bubbles and charred just enough but not burnt. Crust had nice structure/crumb and chew as well. Really solid overall and would definitely get it again. My few issues: -Saturday late afternoon/early evening I get it'll be busy but the front of house was just way unorganized and none of the staff seemed super helpful till I had actually ask someone where to place a to go order. I was literally standing in front of them and no one acknowledged me lol. It was also so cramped with people standing around everywhere for no reason it seemed. -We ordered to go as mentioned and they text you when your order is ready. Cool, not a problem. What they forgot to mention was you get a text as items on your order become ready. So you'll get your appetizers or whatever else that are quicker to make well before your actual pizza. Do you eat them hot in your car while waiting for the rest of your order? Or let them get cold and eat them when you get home later? Who does it that way?!? Absolutely ridiculous and so dumb. Have proper kitchen planning and make food so it all comes out hot and at once. -Just FYI, the ravioli appetizer for $16 came with 5 raviolis. Yeah you hear that right, only FIVE raviolis in an order for 16 bucks. That should be a crime and such a rip off. I expected at least 10 of them for that price. But hey, you get both marinara and pesto, so that's nice. -Last issue was when they brought my pizza, it didn't have my ranch's that I ordered and paid for. It took probably 5 minutes and the staff going back n forth 3 times saying someone must've taken them. It took a manager to get ranch's from the kitchen and bring them up front...Then tells the to go staff that the kitchen sent them with my ravioli that was sent half an hour earlier, which they didn't. Why was it so hard to get some ranch?! And I paid $50 for a pizza, appetizer and can of side, why would I lie about getting my extra sauce? Shouldn't have even been an issue for a dollar worth of ranch IMO.. I gave it a 3 star overall because the pizza was really good and would've given it a 4* on its own but everything else was a 2* as outlined above. Definitely things that could be improved upon at the end of the day, but they do make some really solid pizza.

This ain't no princess cruise lodge! Reservations, and accommodating the guest need some work. We had to change our plans by one day over two months ago, almost immediately after making the first reservation, within 24 hours. Check out time is 11, check in time is four. We had to pay $25 extra to be able to stay in our first room until one. Guess we will find other things to do until we can move back into our second room at 4 PM Since we had over two months before check in, when plans change by one day, I called repeatedly and emailed looking to see if we could stay in the same room for both nights. Every time the answer was no. Unfortunately, I have a feeling with all these rooms that they have, there was a room that had a two night window in the last two months it became available, yet no one reached out. I reached out to the manager, Sue by email one month before our revival, one week before our arrival, and the day before our arrival with no success on relief from having to change rooms. We also ordered a romantic edition, which was a bottle of wine with a charcuterie tray. We had to remind them of this when we got to the desk, and a warm bottle of white wine and a prepackaged charcuterie. Kit were provided after we entered our room. Don't get me wrong, this is a nice place to be located at, yet remember is far up the hillside and any movement from your room requires stairs, and/or steep roads to the restaurant, the check-in desk, or the main drag in Denali/"GlittercGulch, where all the other hotels are. This became an issue due to my traveling partners new onset auto immune knee condition that appeared about a month and a half ago, and movement in the area is not very easily done if your knees are Inflamed. Just check out the picture of the stairs that I posted, and multiply that by five or six that are between each row of cabins. The staff is very nice, mostly summertime help, or likely on work visa as most work from other countries than the United States to include Jamaica, Macedonia, I am the Dominican Republic. Many of them have not even ventured out of the immediate area and enjoyed any of the local attractions when questioned about the best food, activities, and other possibilities. Denali national park is the highlight so far, and we will be doing some river rafting this afternoon and will report back on that. The other thing is that previous reports about the overlook restaurant seemed to be stellar, although it was closed last year and a Mexican restaurant has been opened with, but looks to be a very limited menu. As things changed quickly, I will verify all I said at this time, I see efforts to improve the grounds being Made, and can change in a short amount of time. Also, if you want a shuttle to Healy for the brewery it has great food, you need to arrange that separately. we used a tour company that goes by the same name as the town and the mountain, and they were very accommodating. There was only two of us going up to Healy and coming back. More to follow after the second night. Update! Right after sending in review, front desk called and stated that our new room number 501 was ready for us now. We asked to have our bags brought up, and a representative came up to give us our new key and our bags are down at the old room. Here is a view from the new room, 501 and its comparison to the Dall suite, # 408. So the second set of pictures are of our new room, watch out when going into the toilet and shower, the door hits the toilet and you have to go around it before closing the door behind you so you can access the toilet. All in all, this is a beautiful site with some formidable obstacles if you need easy accessibility or need to be accommodated in any way. The value is good, and my recommendation is to bring a vehicle, or maybe a golf cart, or maybe a power chair. I give it a strong 3/5!

My first impression upon checking in at the hostess station and looking into the seating area, was that it might not be as good an experience as I'd hoped. I was wrong. They were jammed. We got seated at one of three 2-tops next to the open kitchen. Normally I enjoy being able to watch food being prepared but I thought it was going to be too loud and busy. Well, it was loud but tolerable and it was a very busy space but I really enjoyed watching the grill-man, the other prep folks as well as the 2 People doing the finishing touches, garnishes and delivering the food. Our server was Regan. What a pleasure she was. Really delightful, helpful and attentive. We ordered cocktails and an appetizer and slowly enjoyed both. Later, we ordered a single meal to share. We loved it! Here's what we had: Drinks: Cosmo cocktail Lavender Gin cocktail Blackberry Smash cocktail All the drinks were well crafted and very tasty. Appetizer: Halibut Bites Really nice appetizer. Salad: Wedge with Blue Cheese dressing The salad was large enough to share and we asked for some extra dressing. Really good. Side: Marscapone Potato Gratin These were really special. Love it. Main: Prime Beef Filet with Lobster Herb Butter Oh my word, super tender and flavorful.
