Fantastic all around. Super cute place, there was a wood fire burning in the courtyard which was nice. We got there around 8pm and they close at 9. We waited about 5 mins to be seated. Everyone from hostess to waitress were extremely friendly and welcoming. Service was prompt and attentive. Three sisters app was almost gone when I took the pic. It's a cold white bean, squash and corn salad atop bean and cheese pupusas. It was creamy and tangy from a green salsa. It was fresh and hardy. The soup de jour was a wild mushroom and wild rice topped with Calabrian chili oil. It had veggies in it and was like a light stew. I loved the flavor and the chili oil left a little numbing of the lips which was a surprise. I had the Alaska Man burger. It was awesome, love the 2 Pattie's and bacon jam. They didn't ask about doneness when I ordered, but it came out a nice medium rare, bordering on medium. Fries were nice and crispy. My friend got the bibimbap with steak instead of pork. It was huge and comes in a HOT stone bowl. You mix it up and it kind of keeps cooking like fajitas. It was delicious. Really a cute gem in this little mountain town. I'll definitely be back if I visit Girdwood again

We had dinner here after spending the evening at the Nordic Spa and this really was the cherry on top of a great night. We came in about 30 mins before closing but never felt rushed. Our server was friendly and quick to take our order. I won't say no to anything with a fried egg on top, so I got the bibimbap. It came out so hot you could hear the rice crisping in the stone pot. It took a long while for it to cool -- my fiance had nearly finished his burger by the time I could take actual full bites! I heated up the leftovers the next morning and it was soooo good. We were seated by the kitchen and enjoyed watching all the desserts being made. Unfortunately we had no room to order any, but will definitely plan on it on our next visit here.

This place is always hopping and can be difficult to get a seat due to no reservations allowed. My husband and I have been a few times and the service is always good. The sweet potato appetizer is always a hit. However, the entrees have not always been consistent. Still good, but the first time we went there was significantly better than the second. My husband enjoys the burger. The bibimbap was pretty good. Not a fan of the peanut noodles though. It's a big portion but so heavy and oily without much flavor.

Omgosh this place, so yummy and what a great location. I absolutely love their outdoor fire pit where you can sit and wait for your table. I like their little gift shop too. Inside the restaurant is gorgeous. It's hard to explain but it has an upscale rustic Alaska feeling to it. The hostess was darling and the server was very helpful. The food is delicious like lower 48 good! Sorry Alaska just being real here. Try the yam fries AMAZING, the avocado salsa, the wagyu beef burger and the vegan nachos! You're welcome! Oh and the blueberry soda in a can, FANTASTIC!!

Very popular place, so when you put your name on the waitlist, expect to wait a little bit. There is ample seating outside with a lovely fire pit so while waiting for a table is actually very cozy and enjoyable The star of the show for me was the vegan nachos. I personally am not vegan, but this appetizer is so delicious. I think even the most devoted carnivore would enjoy it. Packed with flavor and just the right amount of spiciness, the nachos were my menu favorite by far I also ordered the peanut pan noodles, which I enjoyed and ended up having enough leftover for a second meal later. I would've enjoyed being offered the ability to make it more spicy though. The service was friendly and attentive, and we were sat at a table that was elevated facing the rest of the dining hall, which felt like a cool experience

Such an adorable restaurant. It feels like you're dining in a cozy well-decorated cabin. The Nacho Libre app was amazing! Best vegan nachos we've ever had. The walnut meat was so full of flavor and had a great consistency. The Peanut Pan was sweet, creamy, and savory. It was deliciously peanut buttery and contained plenty of veggies. The tofu had a very light crisp on the outside and silken center. The Curry Salmon dish was very delicate and warming. Our waitress was very attentive and provided great service.
